ADAMSON LAW GOES
TO SUPREME COURT
FOR final DecisiOn-HOped That final
Action May Be Had before
January 1St Next

The constitutionality Of what is known
as the Adamson law had its first hearing
in Kansas City in the Federal District
Court before Judge Hook Wednesday.
The suit was brought by the Missouri,
Oklahoma & Gulf railroad company.
In rendering his decision holding the
law unconstitutional Judge Hook said
the proceeding was most unusual in
that he was asked TO make his ruling
without giving the case due consider
alton so that the matter might be brot
before the United States Supreme Court
for final decision. Where It is pro-
posed to advance the case so that
prompt consideration can be given and
decision rendered before the first oi
January next, the date when the law
will go into effect if declared con-
stitutional.

Increase in Bank Deposits

The controller of the currency called
for bank statements the past week, and
the press OF the state is generally print
ing the statements this week. A most
encouraging increase is shown. Our
own bank shows a very substantial in
crease in deposits over the last previous
statement made two months ago. The
Columbia Valley bank Of Wenatchee
shows the largest deposit Of any bank
in Chelan county. Their deposit very
closely approximates a million dollars.
the first time in its history. All the
banks show an increase. This is due, no
doubt to payments for fruit, lumber,
grain and other farm products which
never before brought as good price
and met with a more ready sale.

Harry Brown, Of Wenatchee lake built
several miles of trail from Index TO the
property Of the Cady Pass Mining Co.
This is the property owned by Jay
Buttles and his brother Charles and
associates. He says the company has
what he considers one of the best pros
poets he has yet seen in the Cascade
mountains. 1t consists of an immense
body, fully uncovered and tracable for
great width and length along the ore
body. 1t consists Of copper and silver
with a considerable quantity Of molyb-
denite.

Grazing Fees in National Forest
to be Increased

District Forester George H. Cecil,
Portland, Oregon, announces that after
careful consideration the secretary OF
agriculture has approved an increase in
the fees to be charged for grazing live
stock on the national forest ranges.
This increase will be made gradually
for the next three years, until the
charges reach a point equivalent to
two-thirds of the charges made by
private owners for grazing stock on
their land.
Stock associations are being advised
of this decision order that statements
regarding the views Of their members
may be submitted to the forester by
Feb. i, in case they desire to discuss
the matter.
Investigation OF rental values from
time to time, says Mr.. Cecil, has re-
vealed that the government charges for
grazing on the national forests are only
one-third OF the market value Of the
forage. Since timber and other re-
sources OF the national forests are sold
at their market value, there is an in
creasing demand that forage resources
should be disposed Of in like manner.
The national forests were created for
the primary purpose Of conserving the
timber and water supply. The grazing
use OF the ranges, which was found to
exist when active control Of the forests
was begun, was treated as a secondary
matter and only portion of the ad-
ministrative cost of handling the forests
was asked as grazing fee.
Since the national forest states share
in all the receipts from national forest
business to the extent Of 25 per cent,
the revenue to these states will be ma
ter;ally increased by this decision.
For the fiscal year ending June 80,
1916, the states Of Oregon and Wash
ington received $32,820,65 as their
share OF the grazing receipts from the
national forests within their borders.
Without considering increased receipts
from other forest resources this figure
would be doubled by the advance in
grazing rates.
