VALUABLE LUMBER HARVEST.
Over Billion Feet, Worth Nearly $50,
100000 Cut in "lnland Empire"

Spokane, Wash, Jan. 7.-One billion
and two hundred and fifty million feet
of lumber was cut by the mills i'm the
Inland Empire during 1909, according
to reports compiled by r. A. Kellogg,
secretary of the Western Pine Man
ufacturers' association, of which j. p.
McGoldrick of Spokane, is president.
The value of the cut is placed at from
S19,O0O.OOO to $20,0O0,0OO. of which so
per cent went for labor. Forty
per cent of the lumber was marketed
locally, the rest being shipped to the
northern tier of states as far east as
the Atlantic seaboard, and TO the mid
die west and Canada. Mr. Kellogg
says the outlook for 1910 is that the
cut will be at least 10 per cent greater
than last year. The total stumpage
I'm the inland empire is estimated at
$50, ,000. .000, 900 feet. This includes the
largest stand of white pine on the con-
tinent i'm northern Idaho and enormous
tracts of other soft woods In eastern
Washington and oregon western Mon
tana and the boundary district. Mill
men say the timber will last more than
275 years at the present rate Of cutting.
while IL all were cut at once there
would be enough lumber to build
houses for half the population of Amer
lea.

Up FOR
HOT CAMP PAICN
Indiana Looking Forward to One
Of Liveliest Elections in
Many Years.
DEMOCRATS WILL RfORGANlzE
State Committee Will Meet Tomorrow
to Outline Plans and Elect
Chairman-Looal Option Will
Be a Big Issue.

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. Indiana
is looking forward to one of the livell-
est political campaigns that the State
has seen in many years. Though the
election is still a long way off, both
parties are already preparing for the
campaign. The Democrats will start
the ball rolling tomorrow, when the
state committee will meet in this
city for reorganization. At the same
time there will be a conference of the
party leaders and general discussion
of the lines on which the campaign
will be made. Encouraged by their
success i'm the last election, when they
elected the governor and nearly the
entire Congressional delegation, the
Democrats are looking forward to
even greater victories in the coming
contest.
election of U. S. Jackson as chair
man of the Democratic State commit
tee. While Thomas Taggart, former
chairman of the Democratic national
committee and still one of the con-
trolling factors in Indiana politics, is
believed to be a none too ardent sup
porter of Jackson, IL is thought he will
acquiesce I'm the desire of the majori-
ty OF the party leaders, who believe
that the state chairman should be re-
management of the last campaign.
Interest in Republican politics also
centers in the State craftsmanship cleo
ton. There are indications that there
will be a contest for this place, a
thing that has not occurred for sew
eral years. Former Governor w. r.
Durbin has made a canvass of the
state through his friends for the posi-
tion, but he is not believed to be the
choice Of many of the leaders. 1t is
admitted that Harry S. New, mem
ber of the national committee, could
have the place If he would accept IT,
Whoever Is chosen, however, will be a
man entirely satisfactory to Senator
Beveridge. who is now in entire con-
troll of the federal patronage so far
as Indiana is concerned. and who is
to be candidate for reelection al
the hands of the next legislature.
From the way things are shaping
themselves at present it appears GER
tain that the problem of the liquor
traffic is going to be ono of the chiei
issues of the coming campaign. Those
who oppose making it an issue i'm the
coming campaign and those who would
be willing to drop It, if such a thing
could be done gracefully. concede that

While the agricultural group shows
a gain of over $1OO.OOO.OOO during the

shown in the staple farm products for
food such as breadstuffs, meats, live
cattle. etc. This loss is more than OFF,
set by the great increase I'm the ex-
portation of cotton and from certain
comparatively new industries whose
chief development has occurred in the
last few years.
Cotton the largest item in the agri-
cultural group, shows a total exporta-

bacco out Of a total export Of $31,000,-
