INCOME
IS DIVIDED

A circular just issued by the
forest service calls attention tt
the various laws under which
more than a third of all nationa
forest receipts go to the benefit
of the states in which the forests
are situated, for schools and
roads. In 1912 the amount OF
money thus made available fol-
state purposes totaled about
$3.50, 900. The report does not
show the amounts due from the
receipts of the fiscal year which
closed June 80, 1918. Including
these, the states share of ma
tional forest funds since the laws
were passed has aggregated over
So, 900, 900.
These facts are set forth, ac-
cording to the forest service, be-
cause popular impression still
exists that all money received by
the government from timber
sales, grazing fees, water power
permits, etc., is permanently
taken out of the states where it
is paid and goes into the national
treasury, to meet the general ex-
penses of the government. This
idea is said to prevail, to some
extent, even among actual for
est users in the national forest
states, where the division of re
ceipts with the states has been
going on for years. The circular
states that part of the gross re-
ceipts of the national forests was
first made available for schools
and roads when the agricultural
appropriation act of June 80,
1906, directed the Secretary of
the Treasury to pay over to the
state or territory IN which any
forest reserve was situated ten
per cent of all money received
during the fiscal year from such
reserve. The money was to be
expended by the state or terri
torial legislature for the benefit
of public schools and roads in the
counties in which the forest re-
serve lay. This legislation was
recommended by the forest SER
vice because of the recognized
burden imposed locally where
natural forests operate to prevent
much land from becoming tax
able.
In 1908 the amount to be paid
to the states was increased to 25
per cent, and a proviso of the
earlier act that no more should
be paid to a county than 40 per
Estancia news-herald. [volume] (Estancia, Torrance County, N.M.) 1912-19??, 1913-08-07

cent of its total income from 9th
er sources was eliminated. Since
this proviso was removed, some
of the counties receipts from
natural forest lands have equalled
their income from all other sourc.
es.
In August 1912, the agricul-
tural appropriation act for the
year made an additional 10 per
cent of the money received from
national forests to build and
maintain roads and trails within
national forests for the benefit
of the public, in the states from
which these proceeds are derived,
This 10 per cent road item," as
it is called, is expended by the
Secretary of Agriculture, who
may, according to the act.
whenever practicable in the
construction and maintenance of
such roads, secure the co-opera-
tion or aid of the proper state or
territorial authorities in the fur
therance of any system of high
ways Of which such roads may be
made a part" The total amount
expended under this provision
from the receipts of the fiscal
year 1912 is $2O7. .295. This was
apportioned among the states as
follows: Alaska $4,675, Arizona
$24,645, Arkansas $2,283, Cali
fornia $24,821, Colorado $21, ,5O3,
Florida 1881, Idaho $23, ,809, Kan
sas S4S9, Michigan So, Minnesota
S5O3, Montana S23, ,926, Nebraska

Oklahoma $351. Oregon SIT, 023,
South Dakota $4,226, Utah
S13,504, Washington. $12,758,
Wyoming $12,254.
The Weeks law of March l,
1911, providing for the acquisi-
ton of lands in the Appalachians
provides that five per cent of
moneys received from each ma
tional forest into which the lands
are divided, be turned
over to the state for its public
schools and roads. New Mexico
and Arizona besides the sums be-
fore mentioned, are entitled to
approximately II per cent of the
gross proceeds of all national
forests in those states in return
for the state school sections
within national forests. This
provision is embodied in the act
of June 20, 1910, authorizing the
of the two new states.

Show that Barre c. L. U. Had Most
Successful Celebration.

AT the regular meeting of the Central

from the committee in charge of the la

one of the most successful ever conduct
ed by the G. l.. o., and results were even
better than anticipated. Next season
efforts will be made to make the event
even bigger and better success. About
$3.50 was realized from the celebration.
At the meeting last night a commit

AN ATTACK ON BRYAN.
Writer Calls the State Department All
Mussed Up.

Enthusiastic admirers of the present
administration, who confess to some
misgivings over Mr.. Bryan's appearance
as a public entertainer, insist as an Off
set that he is making very efficient
secretary of state. This is the sheerest
rubbish with which otherwise intelligent
people ever attempted to delude them
selves. The decentralization of the state
department under Mr.. Bryan is monu-
mental, and so recognized by all per-
sons, regardless of political affiliations,
who are at all in touch with its affairs.
One of our readers, active in business
life, privately reports to us an incident
which illustrates conditions better than
any amount of theory. Our consul at
Formosa is very i'll and his life has been
despaired of. If he should die, mer-
chants there who are doing business
with us would be unable to export their
tea because of the absence of anyone to
certify their invoices. The American el-
ement in the city cabled this situation
to our state department forty-two days
ago, specifically requesting that some
one be detailed there from the office at
Toxic to take the place of the incapaci-
tated consul, in order that the necessary
business might proceed. Our state de-
partment has paid absolutely no atten-
tion to the matters No reply of any
kind has been received. This, at least,
was the case early this week when the
information, from frst-hand sources,
came to us.
The word extra -territoriality," while
not of popular speech, has very def
mite meaning in international law, rec
ognized and understood by persons of
any familiarity whatever with that sub
ject The other day some diplomats,
gaining the ear of Mr.. Bryan for the
discussion of the duties of his office,
used that term. He interrupted with
the inquiry: "Just what do you mean
by extra a-territoriality And this is
the trained diplomat that we are put
ting before the nation. Read reprint
in another column from the French
newspaper of most authority in world
politics.
Mr.. Ellery Sedgwick, the editor of The
Atlantic, in a defense of BryanA which
appeared in these columns the other day,
pointed out that Bryan's stump speeches
were simply part of the man as much
as his slouch hat and his string tie.
Mr.. Sedgwick did not 60 far enough.
The stump speech is not merely part
of Bryan, it is the whole man. He has
a stump speech mind, and no other.
1t is not an impropriety that he
should be on the stage with the yodlers;
the hapropriety is that he should be
anywhere else.-Boston Herald.

CONVICTED
BY A JURY
Manuel Villa Found Guilty
of Keeping with In
tent to Sell
EXCEPTIONS TAKEN
DURING THE TRIAL
Judge Butler Continues
Georgia Mcleod Case
for Sentence

A verdict OF guilty was returned in
Washington county court late yesterday
in the case of State VS.. Manuel Villa
of Barre, charged with keeping intoxi-
eating liquor with intent to sell. Sen
tenee was deferred. Several exceptions
had been taken during the trial by the
respondents attorneys, and one by
States Attorney Carver, who prosecut-
ed.
The taking Of testimony was com
pleted at the forenoon session, States
Attorney Carver starting his argument
and concluding in the afternoon, followed
by Attoreys h. A. Hoar and S. Hollister
jackson for the defense. The ease was
given to the jury at 3 O'Clock. In de-
livering the charge, Judge Butler said
it was not necessary for the prosecution
to prove sale of liquor in Montpelier
or anywhere else, so long as the states
attorney could prove that the respond
ent kept liquor with the intent to sell.
After more than an hours deliberation,
the jury returned with the verdict of
guilty.
Judge Butler did not sentence Georgia
Mcleod yesterday for keeping a house
OF in fame, but referred her case to the
probation officer for further investiga-
tion.

Thaw May Have to Take Up
Permanent Residence in
New Hampshire
If JEROME GIVES UP
IN CASE OF DEFEAT
But Matteawan Fugitive
Expresses Confidence
He Is Given More Time

Concord, N. H., Sept. 27.In the abb
,sence Of any definite news regarding hdl
case, Harry Thaw was cheered this
morning by the report reaching him from
New York that William T. Jerome had
said that if Governor Felker did not
grant the request Of New York state
for extradition he would take no fur
ther steps in the case in New Hampshire.
1T was suggested to Tiraw that this might
mean permanent residence in New
Hampshire for him, but he expressed
confidence that he could secure legal
removal to Pennsylvania by means Of
tax payers suit in New York state.
Thaw's counsel received formal assur-
ance from Governor Felker yesterday
that he would grant their request for an
extension to October 6 of the time for
filing briefs in the extradition proceed
ings. One OF the attorneys said that
their work was being carried on as rap
idly as possible, but that since last
Tuesday, additional precedents bearing
on the situation had been discovered
These will be incorporated, he said, IN
the documents to be placed in the gov
ernor's hands.

JAIL TOO EFFICIENT
SCHOOL OF VICE.
Is Way the Rutland County Grand Jury
Characterized the Institution of
Rutland County.

Rutland. Sept. 27--In its report,
which as usual contained the result OF
its inspection OF the county jail, the
grand jury in Rutland county court yes
terday characterized the institution as a
too efficient school Of vice, saying that
this condition was brought about by
the method of "herding" prisoners. The
grand jury recommended new building
for the county jail which is now in the
house Of correction building. The man
agement is commended on the cleanly
conditions Of the buildings and sur
roundings.
The grand jury found two indict-
ments, one of the biIis being against

is alleged to have killed Joseph StalLus,

SUSPICION GROWS
IT WAS MURDER
Inquest Being Held on the Death of
James Toby Near Woodstock-His
Parents Arrive from Lima, Ohio.

Woodstock, Sept. 27.--An inquest was
held at the courthouse yesterday in the
case of James Toby, who was found
dead in a cornfield on G. X Thompson's
farm Monday afternoon. Judge E. H..
Edgarton OF Rochester presided. Thirty
witnesses were subpoenaed and States
Attorney Raymond Trainor had not
concluded the examination OF all OF them
when the inquest was adjourned for the
day.
Mr.. and Mrs. i. G. Toby OF Lima,
Ohio, parents of the dead youth, arrived
yesterday. While scouting the sugges-
tion of suicide, they have no theory Of
the cause OF his death. He was star
football player and athlete at Lima high
school and his perfect health is against
the idea of sudden illness. There is
growing sentiment that Toby was slain
and there is said to be evidence support
ing this belief on the part OF officers
and others.
Tolby's cap was found at some dis
tance from the spot where the body lay,
and a horse had been hitched to fence
nearby. Indications of struggle in the
trampled grass are said to have been
found on the night Toby was last seen.

BOTH CASES CONTINUED.
And a Woman Released on Stipulation
That She Leave State.

Cases OF State VS.. Howard Simonds
and Daniel Hagan, who were arrested
two weeks ago on charges of felonious
assault, with hearing originally set for
to-day, were continued this morning un-
til October 7, at the request of the
state. The men are both out on bail.
This morning Miss Goldie Whiteman
who has been detained at the county Jail
as witness in the state case against
Mrs. Georgia Mcleod, was ordered re-
leased, with the stipulation that she
leave the state. The girl was arrested
in New Hampshire by local officers some
time ago for failing TO make returns
on Barre city court subpoena and WAS
later lodged in the county jail in de-
fault of bail. She was held as one of
the important witnesses in statutory
charge against Mrs. Mcleod, but the lat
ter recently entered plea Of guilty.
