FUSION Is ALWAYS THE FIRST
STEP.

Fusion with another political party
Is always the first step toward dis
indignation. The Progressives and
Democrats Of Utah have fused. The
avowed purpose of the fusion is to
defeat Senator Reed Smoot who is
candidate for reelection. The real
purpose is to get into office.
Colonel Roosevelt who is the Pro
gressive party is radically opposed to
the Wilson administration. Yet his
Utah party has agreed to support a
Democrat for the senate and one
Democrat for the house of represen-
tatives. The Progressives will get
a congressman, q Justice of the SUI
preme court, and such minor offices
as will come with the success of the
fusion movement. The parties have
adopted similar platforms. Can you
imagine Roosevelt out stumping Utah
for this hybred ticket? Asking the
people of Utah to send to the SEN
ate man who will help conclude the
easement treaty with Columbia which
admits that Colonel Roosevelt was
thief?
The Utah situation is a pretty ket-
tie of fish. 1t again demonstrates the
fact that there is no real reason UNI
der the sun why the Progressive par
~ should live. 1t is now simply the
ast hope of a lot of discredited of
ice seekers.-Caldwell Tribune.

The Caldwell Tribune, one of the
most persistent and consistent tenn
perance advocates in north Idaho will
not stand for state prohibition. The
Mountaineer says prohibition does moi
prohibit. There are probably hun
dreds of dry people who are con-
WINGED that Idaho is not yet ready
for state prohibition.
The Tribune should have said:
"one of the most consistent incon-
sistent,"

PROTECT IDAHo,s TIMBER

TnO EO t6AfIOo Im6En
Forest resources of Idaho are Of
material Importance, directly or indi
rectly to every citizen of the state
Idaho has 1923 billion feet of mer
charitable timber besides a vast
amount of young timber that is toe
small to be considered merchantable
but which will grow to merchantable
size by the time the present logging
timber is cut.
A well informed lumberrnan states:
In the manufacture of a thousand
board feet of lumber So is spent for
labor, 81 is spent for farm supplies
and an average of 81 is spent for
freight. In the manufacture of the
present stand of 129 billion feet of
merchantable lumber $1,032, 000, 900
will be spent in the state for labor,
1858 1000, 900 will be spent for family
supplies and $S03,OO0, 600 for freight.
In concrete form the manufacture of
this great resource would pay 10000
men each $1,000 per year for 100
years for family supplies, and 5000
railroad employees could be supported
at $1,000 per year for 100 years on
the freight rates. $4,000 people
could be supported for the next 100
years by the manufacture of the pres.
ent stand of merchantable timber.
by its proper use and protection
from fire this timber can be made
continuous resource for all time.
At the end of the present cut of
l29 billion feet new crop of tim
Der will be ready for harvest.
AS the forest fire season. approach
es it behooyes every citizen of Idaho
whose occupation or leisure takes hiIa
into the forests to use every precau-
ton in the handling of fire. Every
citizen should do all in his power to
protect the vast forest resources of
the state by reporting fires to the
proper authorities by lending his aid
If possible to fight fires, and by using
his influence against public indiffer-
ence and carelessness in regard to
fire.
Every citizen should be convers-
ant with the notices of the State
Land Board and Forest Service
and their warnings and directions In
regard to fire. Special care should
be USED by people clearing stump
land as this Is one of the bad sources
OF forest fires. Probably the greatest
agency in. setting forest fires outside
of lightning is carelessness in the use
of matches and tobacco smoking In
the woods. The Pacific coast people
have a slogan which could be well
used i'm Idaho, A match doesn't think
with its head, when you use it your
head has to do the thinking Don't
trust the match not to fall where lit
may start fire and make you res
ponsible. The progency of matches,
cigarettes or cigar stubs and camp
fires have no heads at all. So do
not trust them either. Do your own
THEM OUT"

A. c. Showing Is Improving.

Reports from the Arizona Com mercial continue encouraging, three feet of good sulphide ore assaying 10 per cent copper on the l, 300 level being the best news recently given out by the management, the rest of the drift at the time the 10 per cent streak was encountered assayed per cent of the same mineral. All the drifts on the 1,300 level are showing improvement.
 The matter of unwatering the mine seems finally to have been settled as the company has started drift on the 1,2O0 to connect with the Old Dominion property at the Grey mine, no doubt for ventilation and drainage. Ore is being shipped steadily to the o. D. smelter. Globe Silver Belt.

Miss Poison Wins a Prize.

Some months ago R. N. Fredericks offered prize for an essay on "How the Northern Arizona Fair can best Help My County" and little Miss Pol son, of the Williams public school was awarded the first prize. The following is the young lady's essay:
 The growth of county depends on the intelligence of it's people, it's in dustries, resources, agriculture, govern ment, it's climate, etc. Unless these things are encouraged and looked after they cannot be of use in developing the country.
 The five northern counties namely, Mohave, Coconino, Yavapai, Navajo and Apache are about the same in their surface features all having mountainous lands with great altitude. Therefore they have nearly the same industries, products and climate. It is not inn possible for them to unite and become one of the most prosperous sections of the United States.
 We see by the many Indian ruins which are found in all the northern counties that the Indians which have inhabited these places were developing the land similarly to certain extent. As people visit these different ruins they notice that the Indians have had similar material to work with. These counties still have the same soil and re- sources and it is much easier for them to produce the same things and there fore become one great prosperous sec tion.
 In these counties are some very in- telligent, ambitious and industrious people. These people have the most beautiful scenery and surroundings, also the best climate and air in the world. People from all over the world are known to visit these counties in search of health, pleasure and wealth. If by chance they are at one of these Fron- tier Day celebrations, they see what the cattle men are doing and they find out that Northern Arizona is full of life, wide awake men as well as other states and countries. When they go away they talk about the possibilities of this country and as result of their advertising, some of the best hard working and honest men come here, which are always the best thing a country can have.
 The Frontier Day celebration brings the cattle men and cowboys into close relation and strong friendship. They learn and see things which other men are doing that they, on account of liv- ing so far apart, have not known be- fore. As result of the thin popula- tion these fairs are their meeting places.
 At the Northern Arizona fair men try to excel each other as to their pro- ducts. If man sees that he can by hard and watchful work take the "blue ribbon" he does it. In this way he
 
 works to improve his seed, his farm implements or what ever it may be until he has developed his crop into something which will be of help to his countrymen and his county.
 If while looking at the specimens, a person sees a method that he thinks would be of use in improving that thing, he speaks about it to some friend or to the man nearby. Soon a number of men get to talking about it and exchanging ideas. This often brings about valuable results. In this way each man becomes an individual agent in helping to develop his country.

 Percy V. Caldwell, superintendent of the Pioneer Home, at Prescott, died suddenly few days ago at the Mercy Hospital. of heart failure. Caldwell had been charged with improper con- duct by the people of Prescott and it is probable that this worried him to such an extent that heart failure resulted. Some months ago he informed the editor of tbis paper that he and o. D. M. Gaddis, of Kingman, went to New Mexico together about thirty years ago, having been brought up in the same part of the state of Georgia.
