FIGHTING AGAINST ODDS"

|
The forest fires in this state
Idaho and Washington are taking q
large space in the newspapers. There
has been great suffering and pro-
digious efforts put forth by the
bravest OF the brave to save life and
property Around our own little
city this class OF men worked as few
persons ever worked before, and in
nearly every instance they were vol
unteers coming to the relief OF suf-
fering humanity. The Oregonlan of
Wednesday tells the story OF this
class OF fighters eloquently, which
we append to give better expression
to the subject.
"The heroes OF this day and year
are the sturdy fire-fighters who are
abroad in the Pacific northwest The
terrible disadvantage at which these
men work; the brave stand that they
have made, time and again, against
the speedy, triumphant advance Of
an all-conquering foe; the fortitude
which they have opposed to the fury
OF the flames: the determination in
which, with throats unslaked and
black lips baked they have often
continued the contest until surround
ed by the lurid foe--their retreat cut
off--and the fearful odds which was
from the first marshaled against
them are elements in struggle that
Ia unmatched for courage, even on
the fierce edge Of battle,
The sole incentive IN this fight
was TO save-first life, then the
homes and property Of settlers, then
the forests. A limited number OF
the fire.flghters were under pay OF
the government, but the vast major
ity were volunteers who gave the
best that was in them OF strength
and purpose and endurance In the
too-often vain hope OF saving life
and property from the flames.
Heroes all, whether in desperate ad-
vance or enforced retreat"

LET THE PEOPLE RULE"

The action OF the late republican
assembly In trying to go beyond the
purpose for which II was called has
resulted In producing dissentions in
the party which are likely to elect
certain candidates who may be nom
mated by the democratic party.
Those republicans who are opposed
In regard TO candidates on the
so-called county ticket to ring
rule and bossism will pay no
attention TO the recommendation
OF an assembly, which was only call
ed for the choosing OF delegates TO a
state assembly. As far as county
ticket was concerned neither the
chairman OF the committee or any
body outside OF the discarded bosses
OF the party favored the making OF
a county ticket, and the rank and
file OF the voters had never been
consulted in the matter. II was
clearly an attempt on the part OF
certain individuals to take advan-
tage OF the republican voters TO re
instate ring rule In politics. The
nomination Of county ticket was
sprung on the convention and car
ried through without proper con-
sideration. Nearly all the candidates
recommended have acknowledged
that the action was irregular and
have made their announcements or
will do 80 regardless OF the preten-
tions OF the assembly. II must be
acknowledged that some OF these
candidates are good men and II they
are regularly nominated In the prim-
aries will be elected.
In the interest OF fair play and
good government, the people de-
mand voice in the selection OF
county officers, and any attempt on
the part OF "the combined" to inter
fere with their full and free action
can only result In the defeat OF the
men they put forward These bosses
have for years been stumbling
block In the way OF the republican
party OF this county. II is a well
known and admitted fact that Jose
phine county IS republican by a
large majority, and yet that party
has many times suffered defeat be-
cause OF the unwarranted action Of
the few self-appointed leaders Il
is many years since republican
Judge has been elected county Judge
and In every instance the machine
has been the cause Of defeat The
republicans have been and are still
determined 20 get rid " the ring,

vation, the appropriation of millions
OF dollars, the establishment of an
immense bureau and an army of for
esters for the conserving of these
resources, the calamities Of the past
week seem to mock the puny efforts
of the forestry department, and
must in a measure shatter the con-
fidence of the body polite in the
gold lace and red tape Of the bu-
reau.
To flight with fire" Is saying so
ancient as to have almost been
handed down from the sanskrlt. II
small fires, easily controlled, and at
the proper season, were kindled
through the forests annually,
taking off the previous years ac-
cummulation of dead leaves, needles
and brush, the forests might easily
be kept clear OF inflammable mat
ter and the awful holacausts that
have marked the past week In a
measure be averted.
The whole vigilance Of the forest
ry department has been directed to
preyent fires, and where their eff
forts have been successful year after
year, most deadly reserve maga-
zine of inflammables that, once
kindled. pass all human con-
troll The origin Of these fires is
not infreuuently spontaneous COM
bustion, in any event It seems that
human vigilance is powerless to pre-
vent their spread.
To return to the old methods OF
the Medes and Persians may seem
long step backward to scientific
gentlemen Of the tennis and golf
cabinets, but the people who are pay
ing for the gold lace, the flummery
and the chalk lines on the tennis
court want a conservation that con-
serves, even though It be accomplish
ed by the prosaic methods OF the
ancients.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 26.-with
the entire complement of marines
drawn up for inspection last night On
the quarterback of the u. S. Armored
cruiser California so that she might
pick from among the men the one who
had kept her away from her home Miss
Emma Schwad, 10 years old, ran from
the side OF her mother, who had ac-
ccmpanied her, and leaped over the
side of the cruiser into the waters Of
the bay rather than face the ordeal.
The next moment a sailor in full uni
form jumped after her. When the
ships ~lifesaying crew lowered the BOAT
the bluejacket could be seen in the
water with the girl in his arms. The
girl and her rescuer were picked up
Just as the sailors strength was fail
ing.
Miss Schwad was rushed to the Har-
Dor Emergency Hospital, where, by
heroic treatment her life was saved.
The b~luejacket who saved her from
death went back to his ship and the
records of the affair last night do not
contain his name.
The girls mother had made COM
plant to officers on the cruiser and
had compelled the girl to accompany
her to pick out the marine whom she
alleged was responsible for her re-
manning away from home.

COUPLES ARREST BRINGS
MANY BIGAMY CHARGES.
Man and Woman Both Accused
of Having Other SpOuses.

MELVILLE, Feb. 26.-The arrest
late yesterday of Mrs. Bertha Mad.
den Baldwin and Edward Sanderlain, in
West Millyille. the police believe, will
reveal several cases of bigamy when
the hearing of the pair is held in Mayor
Smiths court. The authorities say they
have learned that in 1895 Sanderlain
was married to Miss Martie Conover.
of Swedesboro. Several years later he
deserted her and married Miss Char
lotte Shute, of Salem. 1t was upon the
complaint of his second wife that he
and Mrs. Baldwin were taken into
custody by Marshal Biggs.
The charge against both is bigamy.
1t is claimed by wife No. 2 h "a San
derlain and Mrs. Baldwin were married
recently at Mt. Pleasant. Sanderlain
claims tonight hat he is being perse-
cuted by wife No. 2, who, he asserts.
was married to Benjamin Cozens, of
Bivalve. and John Reer, of Shiloh. and
thai he will bring counter-charges of
bigamy against her. Sanderlain told
the officials that his brother Joseph
married his first wife as soon as he
separated from her. Sanderlain does
not deny that he Is married to Mrs.
Baldwin, while Mrs. Baldwin sits
moodiiy in her cell and will not talk.
