perty worth millions of dollars
but oftentimes the loss of life.
The battle is near at hand
Let us be ready for the fight.
Then may it be said at the end of
the season, that the residents of the
north, by their corporations with
the state forest service, have pre-
vented repetition of those disasters
which are a part of the states
darkest history"
ADOLPH o. EBERHART,
Governor of Minnesota. "
In addition to the above request
by the Governor the official Postal
Guide for May calls the attention
of postmasters and rural carriers to
an order of the Post Office Depart
ment that the carriers report to the
proper authorities all forest fires
detected along their routes. This
order was issued at the request of
the Secretary of Agriculture.
For several years in some sections
of the country sort of informal
understanding has existed between
National Forest rangers and mail
carriers with the idea of securing
increased fire protection. The
marked effectiveness of this CO.
operation was strong argument in
favor of its extension and official
sanction, and was in part re-
sponsible for the request of the
Secretary of Agriculture which re-
suited in the order by the Post
Office Department.
The plan is for the carrier to re-
port a fire to the nearest forest
officer on his route, or, if no officer
lives on the route, to have him
notified by some responsible citizen.
State and national foresters are
supplied with post road maps and
with postal guides containing the
addresses of the different post
masters. The postmasters in turn
are supplied by the foresters with
the names, addresses, and telephone
call numbers of forest officers re-
siding On or near the carriers
routes.
Cooperation between rural car
riers and federal forest officers will
take place in Florida, Arkansas,
South Dakota, Wyoming. Colorado,
New Mexico, Arizona, Utah,
Montana, Idaho, Washington,
Oregon and California. Coopera-
ton with State officers is given in
all the New England States, and in
New York, New Jersey, Pennsyl-
vania, Maryland, West Virginia,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Michigan,
Wisconsin,, Minnesota, Idaho,
Washington, Oregon and Cali
fornia, all these States having
established fire protective systems.

URGES COMMITTEEMAN
 TO ATTEND MEETING
JUDGE PRINCE INSISTS UPON
 IMPORTANCE OF FAIR ELECTION.

Editor Log Cabin Democrat: have sent out to the central com- mitteeman of each township in Faulk- her county letter, copy of which give below:
 Conway, Ark, Dec. 1, 1913. Dear Sir-You are committeeman from your township, and the central committee meets at Cehway December 6, 1913; and I want you to be sure to come and not send a\proxy, as your township ought to be represented by you in person.
 T feel very great interest in the Democratic party and in the election of our officers, both state and county.
 "Our Democratic machinery for sometime hasn't done it's duty. The shameful manner in which our pri- maries are held makes man who wants to see the right prevail hang his head in shame for his fellow-citi- zens. For the last two or three pri- maries I have taken some interest and observed the manner in which the cleo tions have been held. And 1 know that they have not been fairly and honestly held. The Democratic party must conduct it's primary honestly and stop this complaint about fair count; and see that the party is elected who honestly gets the votes. If we don't change up we will sooner or later dis rupt and destroy the Democratic party. So far as I am concerned, l always vote straight and never scratch the ticket, but there are thou sands of people who will leave the party unless the elections are fairly held Yours truly,
 "P. H. FRINGE"
 This letter explains itself. I am sorry to have to make such state ment, still, the truth should be told, even if it does hurt. I want to see the parties elected that get the most votes honestly.
 P. H. PRINCE.
