SKllLFUL LOG DRIVING.
Some Rolling Mounts Are as lntract'
able as Buckins 7ronchos.

Not many people now living have
ever seen or heard Of log-driving In
New York city waters. The lumber
man from Maine who drove log
across Hell Gate gave on enhsoitlon
that was exceedingly novel as wei as
skillful and dangerous.
Airships are uncertain steeds, but
they compare favorably with logs
even in quiet water. A log in stream
having strong currents and powerful
eddies is as difficult OF control as
team of wild horses. II is worse than
a sug-out canoe. which will turn over
twice perhaps while Its unframed
navigator is merely trying to take his
seat.
The man from Maine shows his ,ex-
pertncss by complaining that the par
ticular New York log which he rods
had one fat side. To the novice this
would have been an ADVANTAGE. ANA
teurs who try to drive logs and es-
cape drowning usually remark that IL
the timber had been fully squared
they would have taken the prize.
A log or piece OF timber IL BY
y makes fair life preserver II n
man can embrace it with arms and
legs as he would trick mule at
circus. 1t is the task Of standing on
ones feet that gives the inexperienced
adventures more things 10 think about
than ever occurred 10 him before
The Maine man proved his skill fur
themore by using only one log on
his voyage. Some good lumber-jacks
would hesitate to drive a single log
down one of our Northern rivers.
They want plenty of logs and all the
room there is out of doors when their
rolling mounts become intrsctahie
and compel them to jump for some

campaign for moral uplift" among his
vast army Of wards, which has been con-
tinued with unabated VISOR since 1t was
begun by the Roosevelt administration has
been chiefly significant. because OF the
total suppression of the sale and use of
fire water among the braves and the
consequent elimination OF warlike out
breaks on the reservations.
Annual reports Of the reservation SUI
perintendents in widely scattered parts of
the United States attribute the success Of
the crusade to the cooperation between
state and federal authorities. which has been
more generally practiced during the past
year than ever before. This campaign OF
well directed effort among the Indian Of
ficials has been fraught with good results
in other directions and gradually the tribes
men are being drawn away from many Of
the destructive habits Of their former no.
rnadic existence.
Washington officials evinced much inter-
est in the report to Assistant Indian Com
missioner Abbott that 700 Navajo Indians
went recently to their white father" SUI
perintendent and, surrendering an enor-
nous stock Of gambling paraphernalia, en-
rolled their names alongside those of the
simple life" exponents. These gambling
devices Of varied sorts and descriptions
were shipped here and have been placed on
exhibition with the immense collection Of
relics and trophies at the Indian bureau.

they did transgressed propriety. But meas
ured by the emergency which faced theGa,
by the purity of their motives and the res,
suits which were accomplished, their breach
of propriety sinks we'll nigh to insignifi-
canoe"
Mr.. Pinchot said he disclaimed any in
IGNITION or desire to shirk any part of his
1wn legitimate responsibility for what was
done by these two s~ubordinates. What they
did, he added, raised a question Of principle
which should not be obscured either by
personal consideration or possible mistakes
on their part. They had, he said, done for
the people Of the country what the people
would have done for themselves had they
been in a situation to do II.
Upon the conclusion of the discussion of
the Pinchot letter the presidents message,
transmitting Attorney General Wicker
sham's report in the B%allinger case, was
laid before the chamber, but Mr.. Wicker
sham's long report was not read. 1t was

PinchOt's Letter to D%OlIiver f. Dis
cussed by President and Advisers.
WASHINGTON, Jan. this after
noon, after reading the newspaper reports
Of the lively tilt caused in the senate by the
reading of a letter addressed to Senator
Dolllver, as chairman of the senate com
mittee on agriculture, by Clifford Pinchot,
In which the chief forester vigorously up
held the subordinates in his office for the
aid they gave Louis r. CLAWS in the rer
ports he made public attacking Secretary
of the Interior Ballinger, President Taft
sent out a hurry call for such members of
his cabinet as were within reach.
Secretary of the State Knox, Secretary of
the Treasury MacVeagh, Attorney General
Wiskersham and Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson soon put in an appearance.
1t was said that Forester Pinchot's con-
duct in sending an official communication
to the chairman Of a congressional COM
mittee was freely discussed, although none
of the cabinet officers who participated
in the conference would discuss their call
to the White House in any way.
President Taft some time ago issued an
order that no subordinate in any govern
ment department should disclose any in
formation to congress except through the
he"u VI ~ ueP"i'hieHI' WI NAiSho''
his letter, virtually upholds CLAWS and de-
scribes him as 'the most vigorous de-
fender Of the peoples rights" despite the
fact that President Taft had declared
CLAWS unfit longer to remain in the public
service. This direct slap at the president
and the further declaration by Mr.. Pin
chot that the Cunningham coal lands really
were about to go to fraudulent claimants
until CLAWS and the forestry bureau Off
Gals took a hand in the fight, thus i'm
pugning the intentions Of high officials Of
the Interior department, are said to haze
aroused Mr.. Taft to keen resentment.
The president is said to have felt for
some time that Mr.. Pinchot has been de
flying the lightning"
Some action as to Mr.. Pinchot's course in
the letter incident is not unexpected.

completed and ready for trial not later
than the autumn of zoos. The claimants
were entitled to have the objection to
their claims formulated and brought to
hearing with reasonable p~romptness, and
the interests Of the government did not re-
quire and were not advanced by the pro-
longed delays and inactlon of Special
Agent CLAWS. In this connection it may be
pointed out. as an example of CLAWS habi,
tual representation, that although, pur-
suant to his request of April IL, 1908, to
forward to him all original papers relating
to Alaska coal entries and d~eclaratofy
upon his representation hat
the statute Of limitations would prevent
criminal prosecutions after the following
October, and the cases must therefore be
presented during the month of May, all
such original papers and documen were,
by direction of the general land office, i'm
mediately transmitted to him by the
Juneau office, no proceeding whatever was
taken by him to bring these criminal
prosecutions or to TAX any steps IN con-
nection Herewith.
"Glavis appears at all times to have been
prolific in criticism and fault finding Of
other officials OF his department, desir-
GUS of Increasing his Jurisdiction, ready
with reasons for delay, but never ready to
complete anything he undertook. His action
in appealing to the Forestry Bureau of the
Department of Agriculture to intervene in
these cases, without consulting any of his
official superiors, was a breach of all
proper discipline. which Is peculiarly aggra-
vated because taken on the very day when
he complained to e~cretary Ballinger in
person that he was being forced to a
hearing before ready with necessary evil
denCe, and was referred by the secretary
to Chief of Field Service Schwartz. That
he could have had no lack Of confidence
in Mr.. Schwartz is shown by his personal
letter to him dated July 81. 1909, In which
he expresses his friendship for Schwartz,
tells him that in his opinion neither See
rotary Ballinger nor Mr.. bennett can last,
and advises him to try for COMMISSIONS
Dennett's place, with the obvious sug-
gestion that he, CLAWS, can then take
Schwartz place.
CLAWS actions appear to have been
upon a wholly exaggerated sense of his
own Importance, and a desire for personal
advancement, rather than on any genuine
desire to protect the interests Of the gov
eminent, and this species OF megalomania
has finally led him to submit to you
charges of improper motives and conduct
against his official superiors, which, In
my opinion, are so unjust and unfounded
as to merit his immediate separation from
the service.
Respectfully,
GEORGE w, WICKERSHAM.
Attorney General"

nave been left in charge OF the new chief
of field division at Portland when CLAWS
was transferred, to Seattle.
Fourth. Flaws claim that he prevented
the government from being defrauded by
procuring a reference to the attorney
general Of the questions Of law involved
and the overruling by him of an opinion
written by Assistant Secretary Pierce,
which would have enabled the Cunningham
claimants to procure patents ON their
claims, is absolutely dlsproved by the
record, which shows! ID That the letter
submitting the questions to the attorney
general, the form of which was prepared
by Mr.. Schwartz in conference with CLAWS
and was in part suggested by him.. by it's
very terms excluded any possible reference
to the CunniT CHAM claims; and ~ that
with the explanation of the somewhat
ambiguous phase, initiation of the entry
used by Assistant Secretary Pierce, his
construction of the statute did not differ
from that given to it by the attorney
general in his opinion.
"F1fth-The Intervention OK the forestry
bureau, procured by CLAWS, is shown by
the record TO have been entirely unneces-
sary to the protection Of the interests Of
the United States, 1t was even unneces-
sary to secure a postponement Of the hear
Ing on the Cunningham claims, as Special
Agent Sheridan Of the land office, who
had been sent to conduct the hearing on
the claims, after a conference with CLAWS,
concurred In the advisability OF a post
ponement until after the completion of a
field examination, although for reasons
differing from any which had been previ-
ously advanced by CLAWS, and so advised
the general land office.
"S~ixth-GlaVis' report and summary
abound in contradictions and misstate-
ments. They omit to a degree hat amounts
to absolute suppression letters, kilograms
and other documents, some of which were
In his possession, and others which were
available to him and which completely
rebut inferences he seeks to a drawn
from those which he does submit.

official Of the land office referred to in
CLAWS charges appears <to have been In
spired by the perfectly proper desire Ia
