CAMPAIGN PLANNED
AGAINST FOREST FIRES
IT'S OBJECTS ARE THE
PROTECTION OF TIMBER
Association Believes IL Far More I'm
pOrtant TO Prevent Fires han 1t Is
to Fight Them After They Become
Started

Portland, Ore.-The summers cam
paign against forest fires Is being
planned by the oregon Forest Fire
association, of which A. P. Sprague
Is resident and C. S. Chapman secre-
tary, with headquarters in Portland.
It's objects are the protection and
preservation of the states greatest
resource, it's timber.
1t is far more important to prevent
fires, believes the association, than to
fight them after they become started,
and with this end in view, attention
is being called to the best ways to
avoid disastrous conflagrations that
sweep the timbered districts, wasting
the forests and bringing death and
destruction to the settler.
During the coming summer more
attention is said to be paid to having
privately owned timber patrolled. The
government may be expected to look
after the forests included in the res
ervations and the owners of timber
will be encouraged by the association
to watch their holdings during the
dry season and will cooperate in every
way 10 make lliS NOIh tllcNtNe.
The protection of the forests is
work in which the entire population
has a direct interest 1t is pointed out
by the association. Eighty per cent
Of the ultimate value of the timber
crop goes for labor and supplies and
the destruction through fires of each
1000 feet of timber means loss of at
least SS in wages TO the community
Burned timber pays no taxes and
lends no aid TO the support of the
institutions of the state.
To exploit Oregon's $4,000, 600
feet of timber means that some So
900, 100000 must be paid out in wa
ges alone. The industry in this state
now circulates approximately $780,
900. 900 yearly more wealth than ap-
Piles, fish, wool and wheat combined
Every citizen has part in forest
protection and efficient enforcement
of the law Is an object of the associa-
ton. 1t is hoped during the coming
summer to enlist the cooperation OF
| everyone to keep the fire loss at
| minimum.

York. yesterday. anothef% victim of
last fails forest fires was identified
and the last chapter of one more of
the many tragedies concluded. George
A. Blodgett, who shipped from Butte
and who contributed his life with ~
others, is the latest of the number
to be claimed.
"Yes, George Blodgett is my boy

nine years" writes the mother in her
ment.
When the burned bodies were be-
ing searched for marks of identifica-

of George A. Blodgett.
With only this name to work upon
the search for the relatives began
From Butte the department received
the names of many of the mans for
mer friends and acquaintances. After
many letters had been sent to the
supposed addresses of these men and
| weeks had passed an answer came
from one of the more intimate, who
remembered facts concerning the dead
mans past. Among these were the
former address of the parents, Will
ct, n. Y. The postmaster of this town
remembered the family and gave the
address which has just found the
mother.
George Blodgett, according to TIL,
grieving mother, left home nearly q
years ago, when mere boy. In 1S9;
during the worlds fair, he visited her
and this was the last time she saw
him. For the last nine years she ha
known nothing of his whereabouts.

SILVER WEDDING
DREW BIG CROWD
President and Wife Receive on
White House Lawn,

Washington, June 20.-The silver
wedding celebration of the president
and Mrs. Taft, the second that has
been held in the White House, came
to an end with the reception on the
White House lawn. Invitations had
been sent to close to $4,000 persons,
and while the official count of those
who shook hands with the president
was not given out, it was estimated
that at least 5000 persons were pres.
ent.
Never in the history of the nation
probably has such a function been
held in Washington. The diplomatic
corps, the United States supreme
court, the senate and house of repre-
sentatives, the departments of the
government, the men who are high in
political affairs of the country, the
army, the navy and every walk in life
almost were represented.
Possibly $4,000 people crowded
about the iron fence that surrounds
the grounds and looked longingly at
the electric display, the splashing
fountain and the gay throng within.

MOVEMENT LED BY DIXON
Republican Opposition to Reciprocity
Would Join Movement to Lower
Duties on Manufactures.

Washington, June 20.-Republican
opposition to the Canadian reciprocity
bill in the senate reached the stage of
open revolt Led by Senator Dixon
demand for an explanation or speech
in favor of the bill from some of the
Republican leaders who champion the
measure, the Republican opponents
declared that, if the bill passed, many
Republicans would join the Democrats
in an attempt to lower the duties on
all manufactured products.
when the corner stone is pulled
out of the system of protective tariff
said Senator Dixon, when the farm
ers products are thrown into a free
market while his purchases continue
to be protected, there are many good
protectionists in the Republican ranks
here who will vote to have the duties
pulled down on iron and steel, chem
icals, cotton and many other things"
Other Northwestern Republicans
signified by their approval of the
Montana senator's words that the pas
sage of the reciprocity bill, which, it
is admitted, will have majority of
the votes in the senate, will be at
tended with fight that threatens to
throw open the whole tariff subject.

clared Senator Crawford of South Da-
kota. I'VE find the senators from
Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut,
Massachusetts and Maine, states that
have always reaped the greatest har-
vest of protection, advocating this
measure to put on the free list every
single article raised in the Northwest
want to deal with this matter in it's
entirety. If Pennsylvania, Mississippi
and Massachusetts have joined hands
in new political propaganda, it is
time for the rest of the country to
strike out on a new tack"

Bryan bids defiance to Democrats who
are criticising him and intimates they

His declaration, which will appear

was candidate for president, when
he declares, through three campaigns,
he was knitted by Democrats claiming
to- be his friends, even committeeman
being in league against him and CIV

Commoner will say in part:
"Mr. Bryan's body, politically speak

tives of the plutocracy inside of the
Democratic party and outside He has
made three campaigns and in every
one of them he has had to meet
treachery within the party as we'll as

to conduct his campaigns through
