For Suicides Estate

CINCINNATI. Feb. 21.-Peculiar COM
plicatiohs have arisen in the settlement
of the estate of Susan NJ. Zilar, aged
seventy-seven. She committed suicide
several days ago at her home in Mt.
Auburn. Cincinnati, and the heirs will
contest the appointment of John w.
Haley as trustee of the will. The es-
tate is valued at SIS, 600, and the wom-
ans three granddaughters are named
as the beneficiaries. Mr.. Haley alleges
that the granddaughters induced the
woman to file ridiculous suits against
him, and cites one suit in particular
where the woman sued for profits Of
$4,000 on q $500 investment.

Federal Aid for Mining School.

A bill has been introduced at Wash
ington by Mr.. M. D. Foster, chairman
of the committee on mines and mining,
of the house of representatives, pro-
posing to extend to the state schools of
mining and metallurgy substantially
the same aid now given to agricultural
colleges. Specifically the bill proposes
an initial appropriation of $4,000 per
year to each state, with an increase
annually of $4,000 until $25, 900 per an
mum is being appropriated. The money
can only be used for instruction, re-
search and experiment, but with that
limitation the terms are broad and
funds expended under them would be
certain to accomplish much good.
There is some slight difference of
opinion among educators and public
men as to whether the United States
government does well to take up the
work of instruction, and there are
those who hold that it should be left to
the states. There is no disagreement,
however, as to the propriety of the
nation using its resources to stimulate
research and experiment designed to
enable more economical development of
material and to promote safety.
Neither can there be maintained any
good argument why in distribution of
benefits the miner should be discrimi-
mated against in favor of the farmer.
The bill Mr.. Foster has introduced is
well drawn and details have evidently
been carefully considered. The object
he has in view has been before con-
gress often enough for intelligent
action. Western miners are especially
concerned, since it is in the west that
the work proposed most needs doing
at the same time that the facilities are
most inadequate. The house committee
on mines and mining gave last year ;
notable exhibition of what a few de
termined men, among whom was Mr.
Foster, can accomplish even with
moribund institution. They went ia
to make it, as it should be, one of tn,
most important committees at Wash
ington. The bill now proposed, H. r
6304, deserves support, and the activ
cooperation of mining men is urged. =

OPTIMISM.

It's pretty good world, after all,
And we ought to be glad we are here;
We may trip, we may stumble and fall,
But there's always a message of
cheer.
There's always light in the gloom,
If we look for the light, as we should
And the flowers are always in bloom,
You could see them right now. if you
would,
There's always a comforting thought,
Though the day, or the night, may
be drear.
If you look for the best, as you ought
You'll find something good, never
fear.
Make the most of the good in your way
And your troubles will soon appear
small,
Then you'll feel, and you'll think, anC

court in it's decision says, the secretary
is authorized to regulate the occu-
pancy and use and to preserve the
forests from destruction A violation
of reasonable rules regulating the use
and occupancy of the property is made
a crime, not by the secretary, but by
congress. The statute, not the secre-
tary, fixes the penalty"
81 feel very certain" the secretary
stated, ''now that these questions are
so definitely settled, that we shall have
no further trouble in regulating the use
of National Forest ranges by live stock.
Indeed we have had very little for some
time, because the stockmen themselves
although originally inclined to resent
the interference of the government
with their long and uncontrolled use of
the lands now within these forests, have
recently, accepted the situation and are
rapidly realizing that their occupancy
of these grazing lands is vastly more
satisfactory under present conditions
than it was in the old days when these
areas were open to all corners and it
was a constant. struggle to obtain feed
for their herds

all to about $4,000 This money is
really to be given away as prizes on
live stock, agricultural products ana
other exhibits, and doubtless, much OF
it could be won by exhibitors in this
locality if they would take the trouble
to send in exhibits.
The Spokane fair management DO all
they can to induce exhibitors to come
in, the railroads and express companies
make special reduced rates on exhibits
and every question which might arse
is carefully explained in this premium
list, and yet only very small percent
age of the people who might exhibit
successfully, do so. Possibly the fact
that the prizes for this 18th Annual
Spokane Fair have been very largely
increased may interest new exhibitors
this year. We notice that the apple
prizes alone amount to $1458.5O; an IN
crease of $500 over the amount offered
in 1910, and other departments also
show substantial increases.

list may be had free by addressing

Bear Lake VIII Vote Again.

Montpelier EXaminer: From the
number of signatures that have al
ready been obtained, it is evident the t
more than the required number will
sign the petition asking the county
commissioners to call another election
to see whether or not Bear Lake
county is to remain in the "dry" col
umn. The fact that so many people
are signing the petitions is pretty
strong proof that they are not satisfied
with present conditions, and refutes
the statement that $50 per cent of our
citizens are opposed to selling intoxicat-
ing liquors in Bear. Lake county"
Many who really at heart are oppose
to the open saloon have expressed
themselves as favoring that method of
dispensing liquor to the boot-legging
and ''home consumption" plans that
have prevailed in this county during
the past year, and viii continue as long
as we have local option law. If an
other election is called in this county
we would not be surprised to hear Of
the wholesale liquor merchants in Utah
and eastern cities offering to contri
butte liberal sums to help the "drys'
win the election, for those firms are
now reaping the richest harvest Of
their lives from the "dry" counties Of
| Idaho.

Grazing Regulations Upheld by the
Supreme Court.

The decisions handed down by the
supreme court, on May l, concerning
the right of the government to control
grazing on the National Forests are of
great interest to western people, and
especially to the western stockmen.
The right of the government to control
its own lands within the various states
and territories is so clearly defined that
it is regarded by Secretary Wilson as
establishing absolutely the position
these lands occupy under the law.
81 am very sure" said Secretary
Wilson, "that the stockmen of the
west, as well as the western people
generally, will accept this decision of
the supreme court at its full worth and
that the controversy which has hereto
fore existed regarding the right to use
the grazing lands within the various
National Forests without permit from
the Department of Agriculture will be
brought to an end.
1.-The two cases decided were the So
called Light case, which originated in
Colorado, and the case of the United
States against Grimaud, Carajous and
linda, three California stockmen. In
the Light case one of the principal
issues joined was on the question
whether the fence laws of the state
must be complied with in order that
the United States might sustain action
for trespass on the National Forests.
The California case concerned the uues-
ton whether violation of the National
Forest regulations is punishable as a
crime.
In the effort to establish the conten.
ton that the government was WRONG.
not only the validity of the grazing
regulations but the constitutionality OF
the entire National Forest policy was
challenged on every ground which the
counsel representing the stock interests
and the state were able to raise. The
fact that their contentious were. one
after the other, set aside by clear-cut
statements of the law is a matter Of
extreme satisfaction to me. never
theless believe that the stockmen VIII,
have so vigorously contested the gov
ernment's position will feel that the,
nave been fairly dealt with both by tn,
department and the courts.
I'm the second case, known as tn,
Grlmaed case, the contention of th,
stockmen was that the act of congress
under which the secretary of agricul
ture is authorized to make regulation
for the National Forests, was uncon
stltutional in so far as it delegated t.
