Loss From Forest Fire ss,47o.25s.

In an effort to quicken public inter
est In the value of preventing forest
fires, and relate the earnest efforts OF
the department along this line, Will
lam r, Oates, state game. fish and for.
estry warden, has prepared an unusual
annual report, which is as far from
the usual dry statistical document OF
that class as can be imagined, and in
1t he has placed some unusual inter-
esting information presented in a way
to attract attention, and illustrated
with photographs which emphasize
the points made in the report. Anyone
with pride In Michigan and interest
In the welfare of the state can find 10
the volume much to interest and in

It is stated that the total loss suf-
fered in the state last year from for
est fires was $3,470,25S1S. and 1t is
also stated that since the first saw
mill was established in Michigan the
loss by forest fire has been over $10.-
OO0,000,00O, or more than the value
OF the timber cut. These facts and
what may be accomplished in the
state along the line OF conserving
young timber and reforestation are
presented In a way to particularly
emphasize their Importance by ]. II.

report, and who Is the deputy war

against fires but are training them

terrible waste of careless fires, and
the best manner of avoiding the fires.
Michigan's experience In the burning

danger Of forest fires, and 1t Is EVIL

Oates has made In the report that he
considers the education of the people

smallest forest fire.
The report might be termed the first
annual report of the Michigan forest

many instances of the excellent work
his scouts have done along conserva-
ton lines this year, as well as points
out the value of the training to them
In other ways. Requests for copies of

Conservatives Resent This.

There is something of show OF re-
sentiment among the conservative
Democrats in Washington because OF
the course which they seem to think
Mr.. Wilson Is to follow. The conser
natives point even to Roosevelt, whom
they do not like at all. as an example
Of what a progressive can do to bal
ance things. They are urging that Mr.
Roosevelt. Progressive. invited some
conservatives into his cabinet In or
der that he might get the benefit OF
both sides of every discussion.
There is no weeping evident In
Washington In the ranks of the pro-
gressive Democrats or in those of the
conservative and progressive Repub-
licans because Of the apparent deter
mination of Mr.. Wilson to surround
himself with men who will urge that
the administration make things move.
The reason for the dearth of tears
among the progressive Democrats Is
apparent. The progressive Republic
ans like to see things moving even
though motive power Ia supplied by
Democratic engine. The conservative
Republicans are glad that the presi.
dent-elect Is going to get move on"
because they think the machinery
will go to smash before the years
journey is up So 1t is that everybody
apparently is happy except the conser.
vative Democrats.
Now In trying to name a cabinet for
Mr.. Wilson in the face of his silence
on the subject start can be made
by eliminating the conservative chief
tains of the Democratic party. that is,
those Of them who are charged by
their opponents with attempts in the
past to block downward tariff revision
and to check legislation Of the kind
attempted by their progressive col
leagues.

NOT IN IMMEDIATE DANGER
Irishman's Companion in Lions Cage
Had No Intention of Making
Meal of Him.

.'Want job, do YER" said the man.
ager of the travelling circus to the
hungry Irish applicant. "Well, I'll tell
yer what I'll do. You shall have two
dollars week and yer grub if you'll
dress up in tiger skin and lie down
in the corner of the lions cage. Fact
Is, we're rather short of animals just
now"
Frightened as he was at the pros.
pect of entering the lions den, our
out-of-work friend was forced by hun
ger to accept, and having had a good
square meal, was duly sewn up in the
tiger skin and bundled through a
small door at the back of the lions
cage. Trembling with terror his eyes
no sooner got used to the gloom-for
it was not yet show-time and the
lights were out-when he perceived
the king of beasts glazing at him from
the oppsite side of the cage. ooh, oh,
OH" cried he, my poor wife! Shall l
ever see Guild Oireland again? Oh,
oh, don't eat me Mr.. Lion, don't eat
mel"
Just at this moment he was as
founded to hear from the interior of
the lion gruff voice which said
That's all right, oocky, I'm an Irish
man myself"
