FORmEA q. 5. SENATOR

IN the March American Magazine
jones Hay, Jr.. gives the following ac-
cunt of q man with q miracle memory.
"A member of the United States Sen
ate was discussing with q friend in his
ONCE some of the Incidents that oc-
Cured during the administration Of
President Johnson. During the con-
v~ersation the senator referred ito an
editorial which had been printed in a
New York newspaper in March, 1865.
This EDITORIAL remarked the SEN
ator, was a severe criticism OF John
son. If you don't mind. I'll dictate the
first twenty lines of it to my stenogra-
pher. You then al keep it for pur-
pose of refernce.'
"The stenographer was called. and
the senator, without the slightest resi-
tation, dictated twenty or twenty-five
lines of the editorial.
When did you last read this edi-
tcrial inquired the visitor.
Tread it on the seventh or the
eighth of March in 1866
when the caller expressed his ut
ter incredibly that any man could die

in 1866, the s~tenographer went to the
Library of Congress, found the original
editorial and discovered that it was a
duplicate. word for word, comma for
comma. of what the senator had just
dictated.
TO appreciate the extraordinary
character of this memory feat, it must
be remembered that when this senator
the editorial in 1856 he was only
fourteen years of age.

OWNERSHIP OF
FOREST LANDS

Within the national forest
boundaries are some twenty-one
million acres in private ownership,
consisting OF lands granted or
taken up for different purposes
before the forests were created or
of homestead entries made since.
In Utah there are about 488, ,26O
acres of such lands within the ma
tional forest boundaries, in Ari-
zona, north of the Grand Canyon
489 acres, in Idaho south OF the
Salmon river Az, ,178 acres, in Ne
vada 200,687 acres, making a total
of 1,170,207 acres in District 4.
Mineral lands within the ma
tional forests are governed by the
same public land laws as such
lands outside the forest. For the
fiscal year 1915, the following
facts are shown on the Forest Ser
vice records for District 4 (Ari-
zona, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, and
Wyoming) in regard to mineral
claims:
Claims pending at the begin
ming OF the year p.
New claims during the year 81.
Claims patented during the year
Al.
Claims cancelled during the year
More than 500 mineral claims
were patented within the national
forests of the United States dur
ing the fiscal year 1915.
OF the l0,905 timber sales made
on the national forests of the Uni
ted States during the last fiscal
year, l0,62l were for amounts un-
der Sf00 each. In the forests of
District 4 there were 1912 such
sales, 1904 being in Utah, 6 in
Arizona, l,720 in Idaho, 323 in
Nevada and 100 in Wyoming The
total number of sales in District
4, including those under Sl0O each
and those over S100 was 3,343.

GOVERNMENT TO
TEACH BY MAIL

Uncle Sans national superin-
incident of public instruction, who
is Commissioner Philander p
Claxton, of the bureau OF educa-
ton of the interior department,
has decided to establish Govern
ment correspondence school in lit
erature.
There will be no charge for the
instruction no dues, no fees. The
only unavailable expense to which
those who take the trainig will be
put is that of postage for the let
ters which they address to the bu-
reau's replies being public busi-
ness and therefore not requiring
return postage.
The object of the establishment
of this school of literature in the
interior department is to promote
the advancement of real educa-
tion by helping to give the right
direction to the reading OF citi-
zens, young or old, who wish to
improvement of their minds, but
have not had the opportunity to
get this assistance in the usual
educational ways. Dr. Claxton
holds that when a person starts
to read, in the sense of to study
and to learn, is the time when the
most important influence can be
exerted for good or i'll in the de-
velopment OF the mental faculties.
Ten courses will make up the
activities of the bureau OF educa-
tons correspondence school OF
literature, and inquiries will be in
formed OF the details upon applica
ton, being allowed to designate
which course they prefer to take
first.

HAITI NOT MILITARY
HEALTH RESORT

In marked contrast to the fate
OF the French army in it's con-
quest of Haiti when thousands
fell victim to plague and pesti-
Fence, is the experience OF the
United States Marine Corps in its
pacihcation work in that war-torn
little Caribbean republic. Medical
officers, in reports just received by
United States Marine Corps in its
state that the health OF the Ma
rines could not be better despite
the fact that they have often been
called upon to march twenty miles
day over rough mountainous
roads, under a blistering tropical
sun, and under conditions of ac-
tual warfare.
Haiti, according to these medi-
cal officers, has had for over a
hundred years the reputation OF
being one of the most unhealthy
spots in the world, and it has been
the common belief that no white
man could live there when sub
iected to hardship and exposure.
But it remained for our Marines
to disprove this theory. They have
had great experience in climates
closely resembling that of Haiti,
and have learned to take the ne
cessary precautions so essential to
the maintenance of perfect health
in the tropics.
Foot troubles were few and lar
between, the medical officers say
and the deaths have been caused
by bullets, not disease.

The RUNNING OF
The NEWSPAPER

Everybody thinks he can run a
newspaper better than the benig-
hted souls who have been placed
by Providence in that unenviable
position. Maybe it is because the
editors faults are slaring ones
out in the open in black and white
or, probably, it's just queer
quirk OF human nature and the
jobs SO easy, any way. Running
the paper is sort OF side line with
lots of people. They offer advice
in their spare moments with the
same spirit as they play golf or
pinochle. One would have the
editor a militant suffragist, anoth-
er demands that he rail against
women voting. The prohibition
lists can't see how any decent per
son can be for the regulated sa-
looms and accuse him of selling
out to the liquor interests if he
takes that side, while the "wets"
say he is being intimidated by
the churches and ruled by the
"drys" if he is opposed to the sa-
loon. The Democrats say the
paper is dirty rag" if the editor
is Republican in his sympathies,
and the Republicans stop their
subscriptions if he comes out for
a Democrat. If the editor is for
anything the ants condemn him,
and vice versa. If he takes a
stand he is trying to dictate to
the community. If he doesn't
take a stand, he is a mollycoddle
and jellyhsh. He is crank, a
reformer, fanatic, a four-husher,
( crook, a disturber of the peace
or just plain idiot, according as
he meets with the desires of his
subscribers or goes against them.
And there you are. The average
man never thinks of the hours OF
toil-down-right, soul-sweating
toil-it takes to get out a news
paper. lie never thinks of the
worries, the trials, the tribulations
every editor must undergo. Just
remember this. The editor, apart
from the perfectly laudable desire
to make a decent living for him
self and his family. has only the

slowing down of the south bound
train Monday. The deer crossed
the track directly in front of the
train a short distance south OF

GREAT NUMBER
WOMEN WORK

The Importance of the boot and
shoe industries in Massachusetts,
is indicated by the fact, in 1911
it employed an average number OF
$4,000 workers, or nearly half the
number in the industry in the en-.
tire country. OF this number IS
per cent, O, nearly 28,OOO, were
women ant girls, ste..tc, num-
Der than IS employed at Any Other
factory trade except the textile in
dustries.
The majority of women workers
were employed in the stitching
room, smaller number in the
packing room, while in every
room table work is done by wo-
men and minors. Outside of these
occupations, men performed all
of the occupations in the factory.
Massachusetts, women have not
yet entered the cutting rooms, ex-
cept at skiving. The packing
room work, formerly done by men
is now almost completely in the
hands of women. Women are also
lasting room at assembling ma
chimes and doing eyeletting and
buttonhole making.
To some extent men have re-
Gently taken up some of the occu-
pations formerly exclusively as
sgned to women. In the stitching
room, vamping, usually the best
paid process, is now frequently
done by men of some of the for
eign races. The managers claim
that the men hold out longer than
women on heavy work. Further
more, the law permits them to
work longer hours than women,
and in a rush season the employer
regards this as an advantage.
As compared with other Mas
sachusetts industries, the boot
and shoe industry pays nearly the
highest annual, as well as the
highest weekly wage. When adult
women alone are considered, the
average weekly wage is about 50
cents higher than that paid n the
next highest, the electrical ma
chinery industry. In the week OF
maximum employment, more than
40 per cent of the women in the
boot and shoe industry earned $40
and over, a proportion nearly
twice that shown for any other
industry.-Bureau of Labor Sta
tistics.

GRAZING
and PRIVILEGES

The greater part of the summer
range in the western States is in
the forests. Under the regulated
system the forage is utilized fully
without injury to the tree growth
and with adequate safeguards
against watershed damage. There
were grazed last year under pay
permits 1,724,OO cattle and horses
and 100000 sheep and goats.
Severa hundred thousand head OF
mich and work animals were
grazed free of charge, and more
than 3,5OO,0OO head of stock cross
ed the forest, feeding enroute, also
free of charge. Not including set
tiers who have the free privilege
or persons who have only cross
ing permits, there are 81 600 indi-
,iduals who have regular permits.
During the year ending June 80,
lSO5, there were on'l 692.OOO cat
tie and horses and ,5iA 900 sheep
and goats on 85,e2z, Az acres.
The number OF animals now sus-
tanned in proportioI to the area
of the forests is 50 per cent great
er than it was 10 yeas ago. Since
1905 forests is so per cent greater
than it was 10 years ago. Since
1905 the number of persons hold
ing grazing privileges has in
creased nearly 200 per cent. This
is due in part to the enlarged area
OF the forests, but can be attribut-
ed principally to wider use by set
tiers and small stockmen. When
the regulated system was estab-
lished the forest ranges, like the
open public lands today, rapidly
were being impaired. The produc-
tivity OF the land for forage in
most places has been restored and
everywhere is increasing; the in
dustry has been made more sta
BILE; stock comes from the forests
in better condition; range wars
have stopped; ranch property has
increased in value; and a large
area has been made available
through range improvements. II
is probable that lOO.OOO.oOo
pounds of beef and mutton are
sold each year from herds and
flocks occupying the ranges. That
the forests have promoted the de
velopment OF the stock industry
is indicated. This is appreciated
by stockmen and they are urging
that similar system os range
regulation be extended to the un-
reserved pubic lands. But it is
not merely the stock industry that
has been benefited. The grazing
privilege has been so distributed
as to promote healthy community
growth. increase settlement, pre-
vent monopoly, and diffuse pros
perity- In other wor'is, public
control has served social as wei,
as economic ends.
