Disastrous Year
For Forest Fires

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.-Officials
of the United States department of
agriculture are of the opinion that 1910
will hold the record among many
years for the severity of the losses
from forest fires The summer fires
followed a spring season believed to
have been the worst, certainly in the
Lake states, known for a long time.
Nor is it wise to assume that the
danger is over when the fierce confla-
giations which have called forth in
the mountain states the efforts of three
federal departments have been con
quered.
The forests will not be safe until the
made wet blanket of the dry forest
floor. That the total losses of the
year will run up to many millions of
dollars is considered certain.
How such losses may be prevented
Is matter of general public concern.
To the national forest timber burned
must be added great amounts on state
and private holdings, besides the i'm
mense damage done to town, farm and
other property. Railroads have suf.
fered from the interruption of traffic
as well as from direct losses. A bulle.
tin by Forester Henry S. Graves dis.
cusses forest fires and the proper
methods of preventing and fighting
them, as follows:
in some sections of the country
forest fires have always been of such
common occurrence that there is a
popular notion that they can not be
prevented. The risk from fires can
never be entirely eliminated. for in
the forest there Is always inflamma
lie material which is very easily ig
nited. They may, however. be large
ly prevented, and under efficient or
ganizatlon their damage may be KEEP,
down to q very small amount. The

problem is like that in cities. where
fires can never be entirely eliminated,
but where the risk of loss to property
may be reduced almost to insignifi-
cance"
The importance of systematic pro
vision for the early discovery of fires
and for getting properly equipped
force OF fire fighters quickly to the
scene of an outbreak is insisted upon
by Forester Graves. "A careful su.
pervision or patrol during the dry
season." he says, lis one of the most
important measures in organized for

tai principles in fire protection is to

Democrat Still Tied
up by Lockout

The Herald does not intend to bu

but many have asked wha
he trouble was over. So far TIL
Herald is concerned the following pr,
est attached to the signed agreemer
explains the situation:
Durango, Colo, Sept. 6, 1910.
international Typographical Union,
Gentlemen:
This contract is signed under
protest in order to protect the
business. There Is no controversy
regarding the scale and we are
willing to acoede to the demand
for time and one-haf after eight
hours, but in a small town with
all surrounding places working
non-union we hold that time and
one-haf should only apply to night
work In the Job department-that
during the day hours overtime
should be paid for at the same rate
as regular hours. But we waive
this point. Our protest is for the
following reason:
For the past twenty years as
controlling owner ! have acted in
the capacity as foreman Of the
newspaper end, having until lately
made up both daily and weekly
editions, having boy to do the
press work. Working under this
economical plan at one time the
paper ran behind thousands of dol
lars. The past few months have
had pressman paying regular un-
ion scale who has assisted In the
makeup. The contract presented
says that must give up the posi-
tion Of makeup and give to a un-
ion man with foreman's wages.
AZ owner and manager and print
er ! claim the privilege Of filling
the position In case desire TO do
the work and between man and
man II is certainly right that an
owner Of newspaper is permitted
to MI the position II he SO desires.
am Informed that to do this work
must Join the union whereas In
some places it is urged that pro-
prietors be excluded from the un-
ion. do not think that a pro-
prietor and editor should belong to
the union, that he should be free
to represent the general public
in fair and Impartial manner.
do not object to having a fore
man in the job department and
union men for every place in the
office with exception Of the posi-
tion that desire to MI.
An offer was made to sign the
contract and abide by It until the
matter could be taken up and thor
oughIy discussed with the head Of
ficers but the local union said this
could not be done. We were pre-
scented with the contract with the
uItImatum to sign at once or work
would cease. This was last night
and asked for time to consider but
when arrived at the office this
morning found the men had not
reported fer work and the fore
noon was occupied In trying to de-
wise some ne,hod Of amicable set
tien.ent, offering arbitration, Of
ferino to take the matter up and
ascertain II the same rule was
enforced In every other office
throughout the country whore the
