FOR FOREST FLAMES.

Incendiaries are responsible for the
loss Of lives and timber in the Oregon
forest fires. and new blazes are being
started each day. according 10 tele-
gram received yesterday at the For
estry Bureau.
Assistant District Forester Menford
wired the bureau that he had detailed
twenty-five Secret Service men and rang
ers to run down the incendiaries. He
said the evidence is positive that some
one Is starting new fires as the big ones
die down
If the incendiaries are caught they
will be shot on sight. and there will
probably be a fight. What motive they
would have is a mystery. and the bureau
has decided TO investigate the matter to
