the matter up, went into his house,
came out with a shot gun and fired at
Brim, who was behind his buggy.
Brim drew his pistol and fired three
times, two OF the balls taking effect.
The young negro who caused the
tragedy disappeared Immediately at

Years, an investment by the govern
ment of sll.ooo,ooo in the purchase of
forest areas. to be under the control
of the Department OF Agriculture. 1t
also will mean corporation between
the national and state governments
for protection against forest fires. II
is a long stride toward the salvation
of our timber lands and of one of the
country's most beautiful recreation
grounds. II means the checking of
drought and freshet along the naviSa-
tains. upon which streams Industries
with an annual product OF more than
s200,000,o00 are dependent.
The present bill began its career in
Congress in January. 1903. The first
bill, introduced in 1901. related only
to the Southern Appalachian noun
tains. and this and four others failed.
Behind the Weeks bill. the governors
o. New England. the press and the
public, have concentrated their en-
crgies. The business men Of Boston
feeling that they represented all New
England, did not content themselves
with simply passing resolutions. They
went ahead and lined up other com.
mercial organizations in all the New
England states. Their slogan was
Work" and they have worked. Repre-
sentatives have answered their de-
nands that they would vote for tht
bill" and letters went back to then
saying: "You must not simply vote fol-
it: you must get out and persuade
others to vote for it" Business mer
spurred their friends and customers
in western cities to write 10 their own
ConSressnen. and the Boston organi-
zation paid half the expenses of an
expert TO travel all through the West
building UP a sentiment for the meas
ure. The newspapers have been given
material which they have been glad tt
print and have Loyalty supported tht
measure in their editorial columns.
Thus the campaign has gone ON
quietly and effectively, and ieN
weeks ago senator Crane made a pol
Of the Senate which showed that tht
