We'll, you are happy, aren't you,

but the colonel only beamed in reply
The colonel and his family were es-

private car Republic and there the
former president was soon joined by
County Chairman Griscom and Col
lector of The Port Loeb. Later the
colonel emerged from the rear of his
private car and made the statement
that he would go to the state conven-

The declaration of Colonel Roose-

politicians that he proposes to go to
the convention at Saratoga and make
his fight against the "old guard" for
the platform and candidates that he
thinks most desirable. The colonel
made it clear that he meant every
word he said, for he punctuated the
closing of each sentence with a clap
of his hands. But beyond the state
ment he said he had nothing to say
on politics.

200 seriously injured and as many
more missing progress in the fight
against the forest fires raging through
out Eastern Washington Idaho and
Western Montana is reported by the
forest rangers and United States

A summary of the situation given
out by one of the government forest

reported In flames, still has a slight
chance of being saved; that Mullan,
Saltese and Henderson, all of which
were in imminent danger, are now
considered out of immediate danger
Besides Wallace and Taft the towns
OF Bryson, De Borgia and Haughan
have been wiped out

Mullan and Saltese, which were said
to be doomed, has encouraged the fire
fighters and they now hold out hopes
of being able to hold the flames In
check until a rain comes that will be
sufficiently heavy to extinguish the
fires. The wind is dying down at all
points, according to reports.
Conditions are still more or less
chaotic throughout the fire zone and

the trellis work of affection, entwine
themselves about the hearts of the par

little ciingerS, that reach from one
heart to another. drawing the two
closer. twining and INTERVIEWING about
them till they become one common
mass and are indeed two hearts that
