ANOTHER PUBLISHER DECIDES

Dillingham; Bros, publishers of the
Mackay Miner, announced last week
that on the 18th of February they
would drop every man from their
mailing list where subscription ac'
counts are in arrears. They say they
have tried the pay-as-you-please plan
and are tired of 1t, and propose to
put their subscription list on bust
ness basis regardless of results.
That is the only feasible solution of
the subscription problem, and the
way to undertake thing is to un-
dertake it. If that plan fails it is
better than the other, because it is
endless failure, and publishers or
anyone else had better fail young
than old.
Patrons of the Miner will like the
new plan after they try 1t a while.

CHIEF FORESTER PINCHOT RE
MOVED

Chief Forester Clifford Pinchot was
dismissed from the service last Fri
day by President TAFT, and for emin-
emily proper reasons.
Whatever may be wrong In Secre-
tary Ballingers work, Mr.. Pinchot
committed grave offense to his SUI
periors and to the president by at
tempting to set aside the president S
decision in the alleged fraud in coal
claims after the whole matter had
been investigated by the chief execu-
tive. Pinchot had heard one side of
the case, and showed himself bigoted
or stubborn or pin headed in assum
ing that after seeing one side of the
matter he knew more about it than
did the president after Knowing
both sides.
If Ballinger proves to be as great
pirate as Pinchot is a bigot, the
interior department can spare them
both.

A CONVICTION CRYSTALIZED

There is an old adage Great men s
minds run in the same channel" and
this is true of lesser lights.
Many men may study the same sub
ject and confer together without
reaching any conclusion, and finally
when they are alone may unexpected
ly reach one common solution of the
problem.
Nelly BLY, was in Mexico when she
conceived the idea of going around
the world in eighty days. She wrote
to the editors of the New York World
about trying 1t, and at the same time
two other persons in other parts of
the world sent in similar letters Nelly
BLY, took the trip and beat the sched-
ule by eight days, making the trip
in 70 days, but that was twenty years
ago, and the record can be beaten by
considerable now.
In eastern Idaho, an association of
editors discussed some of the prob
lens of the old question-delinque
subscribers-and as they met again,
from year. to year, and several times
year, the same unpleasant questions
confronted them. Nobody could offer
a satisfactory solution of it, and fin
ally at their last meeting man was
appointed to formulate some system
and report upon it.
Within few weeks editors got
ideas of their own about it, and one
by one they announced their solution
and the policy they proposed to fol-
low. Simmered down they all amount
to the same thing selling news SER
vice to those who buy it, and leaving
the Others alone.
The Idaho Falls Times was the
pioneer in this move. The Morning
Post, the Rigby Star, the Idaho Regis
ter, the Blackfoot Optimist, the Sugar
City Times, the Idaho Republican, the
Rexburg Standard, the Fremont
County News, the Soda Springs Chief
tain and the Mackay Miner, have set
dates of their own to make the change
and 1t will be no surprise if dozen
more act on the same plan within the
year.
We predict that the new plan will
not only relieve the pub, ishers and !
the postal clerks of lot of annoy
ance, but will be great relief to the
people. They will then be able to /
buy what news service they want and
no more. They will not be afraid to !
subscribe for fear of being annoyed /
with getting the paper discontinued
after the paid period has eapsed. The /.
man has been the greatest ,
slave to the system, but the paper
that follows the cash plan absolutely
will be the one that people W respect |,
and will want, and the others will be -,
just where most of them have been
on the ragged edge. staring failure
in the face but yet hoping to pull
through.

PINCHOT TO CONTINUE BATTLE
In Address to Former SubOrdinates in
Forest Service He Makes Plain
His ATTITUDE


Washington, January S-Everyone
in Washington is at loss to under
stand the motive when prompted Gift
] ford Pinchot to write the letter to
Senator Dolliver which logically
4, brought about his removal from of
flee. Mr.. Pinchot declines to offer
any explanation. Whether he de-
termine to anticipate congressional
investigation and be thrown out now
rather than later or whether he was
unconscious of the significance of his
letter, no one seems able to say. His
motive is as yet wrapped in mystery
! and public men are anxiously waiting
his next move as they can not under
stand what it all means.
Makes Plain His Attitude
Clifford Pinchot, who was removed
by President Taft from his position
as chief forester made it clear in an
address to the officers of the forest
service and the clerks of that organi-
cation that his battle with the secre-
tary of the interior and the admins
tration was not ended, declining to
express personally opinion about his
removal from Office, he also refused
to discuss his plans for the future.
The day after being discharged Mr..
Pinchot arrived at his Office early in
order to arrange his affairs and with
draw as quickly as possible. A meet
ing of the officers who had been I'M
der him had already been arranged
for 1915 o'clock and three quarters
of an hour later the clerical force of
the forest service arrived in his office
to say good bye.
In addressing those with whom he
had been intimately connected Mr..
Pinchot said he wanted them to re-
member first that they must never
forget that the fight in which you
are engaged for the safe and decent
handling of our timber lands is in
finitely larger than any mans per-
sonal presence or personal future.
Continuing he said: This fight
must go on and you are the men who
must carry it on. Stay by the work;
hold fast to the standards we have
set together. Never allow yourselves
to forget that you are serving a much
. Se@SSA ihaotOi lhuh Iut
Of agriculture or even the admins
tration."
In addressing the clerks, Mr.. Pin
chot commended them to maintain !;
service at the same standard and to
press along the same lines and never
to forget they were the servants of
he people of the United States, re-
'ponsible to them and to them alone. Il
81 don'ttwant you to get the idea
and this Is my personal end of it
that because am going out of the I
service am losing my interest in it,

BOOK STORES PASSING
AS READERS INCREASE

One of the best known publishers of
New York is bewailing the passing of
the old time book seller He says that
the trade is not what it used TO be.
Thirty years ago there were in the
United States about 5000 bookstores
where a man might go and get what
he wanted in the way of literature or,
more probable, might go and order
what was not "in stock" says the
Richmond Times Dispatch. At present
there is but one bookstore where there
used to be three. Many men who made
good living over the book counters
are now working at other trades, I'M
able to keep afloat where there was so
little business. A whole art has van
ished
The publisher in question. reviewing
these facts, was inclined to put the
whole responsibility on the reading
public, which now buys magazines
where it once bought books There
may be something in this; and it may
be that the broadening and enlarge
ment of the newspapers has had some
thing to do with the decline in the
widespread demand for books 1T does
not follow, however, that the people
buy fewer books than formerly or that
the total number of regular readers is
reduced
On the other hand. publishers can at
test to the fact that where they sold
one book in 1889 they are now selling
three, The public is buying the books
through different channels if not
through our regular book sellers. and
as long as he makes his profit what
right has the publisher TO complain?

regarding the conditions.
Two weeks from today run will be
made TO Fairfield, 90 miles from
Vallejo. The motorcyclists will take

BLACK BREAD is
NOT A FAMINE FOOD
Rye Equally as Nutritious and
Satisfying as Wheat

curious fallacy has been going the
rounds to the effect that the term
black bread" implies a kind of famine
food, whereas in several civilized coun-
tries il is just as much the staple and
normal article of diet as is our white
loaf There is very little difference be-
tween the nutritive value of the wheat
and the rye loaf. In some respects rye
presents certain advantages over
wheat, and in others wheat may be bet
ter than rye, says the Lancet Rye con-
tains a greater percentage of soluble
carbohydrates than wheat, but some
what less gluten, although the total
protein matters amount to the same in
both iiours. Chemical analysis shows
trifiing differences Of composition be-
tween the two cereals. One distinct adj
vantage Of rye bread is that it keeps
fresh longer than wheat bread Rye
bread also has distinct laxative proper
ties. PumpernickeI or whole rye bread
is more laxative than schwarzbrod. pos
sibly on account Of it's relative coarse
ness OF texture. 1t is an interesting
fact that when once the flavor of rye
bread is appreciated ordinary white
bread seems monotonous because OF its
comparative tastelessness. and so it is
common to find the rye bread eater de-
mand black bread whenever he can get
II and in whatever country he may
happen TO be. The large consumption
Of rye bread indicates. indeed, that in
the event Of a shortage in the wheat
supply the breach could be repaired by
the use Of rye without hardship. The
bodily needs would be met. and with
out any offense necessarily to the gus
taUorX susceptbles.
