WIDER USE OF
RANCE NEEDED
Forest Fire Losses Point Out
Significant Need

Washington, Jan. 30.-Reports based
on detailed field examinations made
by National Forest officers, of the
lands burned over in the forest fires
OF last summer in Washington and
oregon which have been received by
the U. S. Department of Agriculture,
show that the National Forest timber
loss in these states is about 100000, 900
feet. This is somewhat less than was
indicated by the provisional estimates
made shortly after the fires. The re.
ports also show the importance, as a
means of protecting the forests against
fires, Of the efforts which are being
made by the department to open new
range to stockmen.
or the national forests in Washing
ton and Oregon that on which the fires
extended over the greatest area was
the Colville, with 100000 acres burned.
The fires on this forest, however
were chiefly surface, which are far
less destructive than fires which
travel through the crowns of the
trees. 1t is considered by the forest
officers that the fires on this forest
point clearly to the value, from the
standpoint Of fire prevention, of pro-
per utilization of the range under reg
ulated grazing. Large parts of this
forest, and also Of the Chelan, Okano.
gan, and other forests, are not used
by stock because of their inaccessible.
ity, although good supply of forage
is produced. The dry grass and other
heritage both spread the flames and
made them fiercer and more destruc-
tive than they would have been If the
land had been grazed. One of the OBJ
jects of National Forest administra.
ton is to open all available range to
the fullest use consistent with preser-
walton of the carrying power of the
range and protection of forest growth
and winter supplies.
In carrying out this principle, where
good grazing grounds are at present
inaccessible to stock the aim of Ma
tional forest administration is to open
means of communication, through the
construction of driveways, the build.
ing of roads and trails, etc, to the
end that stock may penetrate wher.
ever forage is to be found and graz,
ing can properly be permitted. Through
the building of railroads and the push
ing forward of the system Of perma'
nent improvements which has been
planned for the national forests OF
northern Washington, Idaho and Mon
tana, it is believed that much hither
to unused range in these forests will
soon be opened to use. The topography
of some of the country is such as to
make it available only from the Can
adam side, but American stock own
ers are now beginning to work into il
from that side. Another means OF
opening more national forest range
which is being actively employed by
the Department of Agriculture is the
securing of concessions from railroads
in the form of rates and facilities fol
shipping stock in and out of regions
where forage is now going to waste.

THE LEGEND OF THE LARK
Very Pretty Tale Found In Folk Lore
Of the AborIgInes Of
Japan.

The Ainu (the aborigines of Japsn)
have many legends about birds. one Of
which is very pretty. It 10 thus given
by a receLt writer:
The skylark used % live in heaven.
One day the God in heaven sent him
down to the earth with q message for
the gods who reside here. telling him
to return the same day. But the lit
tie bird thought the earth such a nice
place that he stayed to play. He was
here 80 long that II began to grow
dark, and he therefore determined to
spend the night on the ground. The
next day he arose in the air to return
to heaven, but God met him when he
was about six-score feet up, and said:
Why did you not return as I told your

words you shall not return to heaven.
but live upon the earth. Although
you may attempt to fly as high up as
heaven, yet you shall never be able to
get any higher than one Of twoscore
Of 8 feet. The little bird was exceed
ingly concerned at this, and arguing
with God, said: oh, great God, as the
world you made is so beautiful l
could not help taking look at It, and
so got late. Although you chide me
for this yet will fly back to heaven
In this way he answered God. But
God did not consent. Therefore the
little bird grew more and more dis.
tressed and daily went as high as he
could, pleading all the time; yet God
would never consent to his entrance
into heaven again. He therefore re-
turned to the earth to play. After q
time he assembled and did the same
thing, yet God did not consent. The
same thing continues to happen now
every summer, but God never will al.

LAW AND COMMENT.

| A few days ago John L. Pryor of
 Kansas City, a saloon keeper and politician, was acquitted of the murder of George Morton, for which
 he was arrested at the time, almost five years ago. On one pretext or another the trial was put of during the years since until last week. A day or two before the trial the an- |nouncement was made that the most important witness of the killing had left the city and could not be found The trial went on, the witness not being found, with the result indi- cated above.
 The Kansas City Star, speaking on the case, has the following sarcastic comment:
 Here is an amazing thing: On November s, 1906, a man was killed on main thoroughfare of Kansas City. The man was killed by blow struck by another man. It was in daytime, with several persons look ing on. And yet, further than ar- resting the wrong man--as a jury
 lately decided--the police did noth- ing. Could there be greater stu pidity than to arrest the wrong man for crime committed in broad day. light with people looking on?
 And so who killed George Nor ton is an impenetrable mystery. Some sinister figure, unknown be- fore to Kansas City and never seen since, and not even suspected by the spectators of the crime to have ex- istence, must take place in the police annals, along with the other slayers who have so far cloaked their identity"
 This would seem to be but an other case of where ''puil" and "in- lluence" won out over justice. And it is just such instances that en- courage law-breakers and disre- gard for law and human life. But one thing is sure, the light that is thrown on such apparent miscar- riage of justice by the publicity of today will bring about cure.
 No remedy is ever devised until the disease becomes known, and wrongs are not righted until rec

they this soon have forgotten the battle cry, Let the people ruIeY"
 If the teS commissions position is correct it simply means also thai the judge before whom the law is brought for determination will say whether an emergency exists or not and no one will know for 90 days from the close of the session what the Inv is.
 There were five lawyers present in this case, and it is said that no matter what the decision is the case will be appealed.
 It seems that the I. and R. amend ment bids fair to be a huge finan- ciaI success from the lawyers standpoint, and yet we seem to re- member that it was said that the lawyers were all against the I. and R. because it would put them out of business"
 There seems to have been false prophecy somewhere--The Polk County Democrat.
