PRACTICAL TURPENTINE
CONSERVATION IN SOUTH

Washington turpentine in
dustry of the south, which has been
threatened with total destruction, by
reason of the injurious old-fashioned
methods of cutting and slashing the
trees to get at the product, has re-
ceived a boon in the new system of
cup and gutter tapping, tested by the
department of agriculture.
The producing forests have become
so depleted of thrifty trees as to have
caused much concern. The movement
southwark of the center of greatest
production has been like the progress
of a consuming forest fire, raising the
question as to how long the staple
species of virgin timber will last. The
former. Georgia operators, now in
Florida. are producing heavily, but
how long this crop will last can only
be guessed at if the old methods of
producing prevail.
"They are inconsistent with the
permanent development of one of the
south's greatest resources and the
most conservative methods, such as
those long urged by the department
would seem to be the sole salvation
said the department of agriculture.
| The department has established, by
experiments, that the cup and gutter
system yields 80 per cent more pro
duct does not weaken the trees physi
cally and leaves them in thrifty con
| dition.

Until November Term-News Briefs

County Seat.
(speclal Correspondence.l }


Heppner. Oregon, May 12.-Judge
Bean and District Attorney G. w.
Phelps came over from Pendleton and
convened q short term of the circuit
court for this county. The jury was
dismissed Monday, all cases in which
a jury would be required going over
till the November term. Except for
few civil cases which went by de-
fault the only important cases were
the local option cases. The lawyers
for the defense, Sam E. Van Vactor
of Heppner and w. n. Wilson Of The
Dalles, attacked the validity Of the
local option law. claiming that the
county records failed to show that the
county court adjourned at its May,
1908, session to meet IL days after
the election in June to declare the
results of the special election on the
local option question, thus rendering
the liquor indictments void. The state
held that the local option law itself
fixed the date on which the county
court should meet to declare the re-
suit of the election, and that the tech
nical question raised by the defense
did not effect the validity of the law.
The Judge sustained the state, and the
defendants will take the cases to the
supreme court.

Cherokees Get Money.

The claim dates back to the begin

Terrible Punishment of Soldier for a
Slight Offense.

Washington.-A remarkable state
ment by Representative Thomas
(Dem.. Ky), in the house few days
a resolution to wipe out a charge of
desertion standing against Joseph
Dobson in the war department rec
ords.
'In 1875" said Thomas, "Dobson
had served over IL months in the
regular army with good record. He
obtained a leave Of absence, as he
states in his affidavit, to go and see a
girl of his acquaintance. He went to
see the girl, and like many young
menSand for that matter, old men,
but got thirsty and went out into the
foothills to look for some water, and
he got lost and made his way finally
back to his post AS the report of the
adjutant general says, he was absent
part of one day beyond his leave of
absence. He was arrested as the
proof shows-and the recital of this
case, Mr.. Speaker, Is more like a ro-
nance or the account of some Rus
sian atrocity. He was arrested car
ried to a blacksmith shop and irons
put around his ankles, a heavy chain
was attached to them and he was kept
in that condition for three months. un-
til the irons around his ankles had
worn the flesh nearly to the bone be-
fore Dobson got the irons removed
from his ankles. He was then tried
by a court martial and sentenced to
Imprisonment for four years, and CIV
en- dishonorable discharge. After
that the irons were put back on his
ankles and he was sent back to pris-
on, and remained, as remember,
something over a year, and appealed
the case to the war department. The
adjutant general in his report states
that the punishment was unaccount-
ably severe; that this man was absent
from the post only part of the day;
and that there was lacking in his con-
duct that animus to show desertion. I
am personally acquainted with Dob
son. He had made a good soldier.
There is nothing against his record.
He is a good citizen. and this stain
should be removed from his record.
He has already had a pretty lengthy
punishment for one little drunk. II
other men got that severe character
of punishment for one little drunk. I
expect that there would be some more
of them In prison."

ENGAGES IN FIGHT WITH COLOR.
ED CONVICT AND BLACK
ONE WINS OUT.

Minot, N. D., Aug. 3.-According to
a story from Bismarck which reached
the city today D. M. Noah, the Ward
county murderer serving life sent
ence for the murder of Gus Johnson
at Kenmare, at the state penitentiary,
recently became involved in a fight
with fellow convict, a negro and was
whipped before the guards had time to
interfere.
Noah has had quite a sensational
record at the penitentiary, but since
his recent affair with the colored man
who handled him nicely, he has been
quite docile and is a model prisoner
Since the twin plant was closed down
he has been working in the enclosure
on one of the new buildings. at hard
labor. 1t is said that Noah was not
the aggressor in the recent alterca-
ton and he will receive no service
marks for the affair. but the colored
man gave him quite a licking before
the guards had time to. interfere.

STATE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION
RETURNS WILL SHOW NEAR
EY MILLION ACRES IN
CREASE.

Bismarck, N. D.. Aug. 3.-The state
board Of equalization met yesterday
morning with all members present ex-
tept State Treasurer Bickford, who
is out Of the city but expected home
in time for the meeting this morning.
The only business done was the Or
ganization of the board and the con-
firming OF the appointment Of c. H.
Olson as the official stenographer. The
board then adjourned until 10 o'clock
this morning. While there are a num-
Der of counties that have not sent in
their assessment schedule to the state
auditor enough have been sent in to
give some interesting figures. One of
them is the schedule showing the in
creased acreage sown to crop this
year over last year. With thirty-eight
counties heard from there Is an in
crease shown of 1882 acres as
sessed which with all counties will
mean over 1000, 900 increase over 1909.
1t is not likely that there will be
many increases made by the state
board this year over the assessment
made in 1909 and some of the coun-
ties are going to see that there is
will effect them at least and the adj
vance guard of county auditors AMI
chairmen of county boards of commits
sioners have already commenced to
arrive in the city and will remain here
until the board has decided on what
to do with their respective counties.
In the assessment of farm lands it
appears that with but few exceptions
the county boards have kept close to
the amounts decided upon by the state
board last year,
In 1909 the board was in session for
nineteen days, but it is likely the work
will be done in a shorter time this
year. The state auditor has secured
a number of new ideas in the way of
schedule which will greatly facilitate
the work Of the state equalization
board.

FORKS man Will
TEST PRIMARY Law

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 3,-H. ].
Johnson has filed a bond indemnify
ing the county Of Grand Forks against
any costs in the appeal of the case
brought some time ago by Mr.. John
son to test the constitionality of the
primary election law and recover the
fees paid by the candidates to get
their names on the ballot of the pri-
mary election. Several months ago
Mr.. Johnson made a demand on the
board of county commissioners for the
refund of the fees paid two years
ago, but on a written opinion of the
states attorney advising the commits
toner's not to refund any fees until
the constitutionality of the law en-
acted in 1907 had been passed on by
the supreme court, payment was re.
fused.
Mr. Johnson Immediately entered an
action to test the law, and in order
to get the matter before the supreme
court JohncOn made proposition to
the board of county commissioners
that if they were beaten in the lower
court and would appeal the case he
would put up a bond for the costs to
the supreme court, win or lose. Mr..
Johnson has for collection the &C
counts for fees paid by candidates of
several different counties in the state,
therefore he wanted the supreme
court to pass on the constitutionality
of the law. The case was recently
tried in the district court and Judge
Templeton declared the law uncon-
stitutional so far as the collection Of
fees was concerned. The case will
come before the supreme court at
their next session.
