crease the fees for this use OF the
Forests 33 1-3 per cent each year for
the next three years, thus doubling
the present fees at the end of the
third year. In announcing the Sec
retary's decision in the matter, It is
further stated that increases in fol-
lowing years will be based upon q
further study OF conditions.
Receipts from grazing OF livestock
within the Intermountain District for
the season of 1916 amounted to ap-
proximately $4,000. With a 25
per cent increase, they will reach a
total OF at least s45O,O00 during
1917. 35 per cent Of all receipts
from the sale and use OF National
Forest resources are now returned to
the States and Counties in which the
Forests are located for road and
school purposes, so that the increase
in grazing fees also means a 20 per
cent increase in these returns to
States and Counties.

proposed sugar factory for that place
sets forth few arguments of inter

Detecting Takers.

Despite all the warnings which are
so continually being printed In pa
pers OF every sort, big and little, con-
tinual reports come in OF takers oper-
ating here and there. and usually
making money at their thievish bust
ness.
We have mentioned good many
kinds OF takers. and will mention
more as we hear OF them, but there
are generally some brands which
identify all takers and fakes. II we
line up any proposition and see II
they have these Identifying marks on
them. we can generally be pretty
sure about them.
Probably the first OF these tags is
something for nothing" Now we
know very we'll that we do not get
something for nothing very often.
We try a good many times. but we
succeed seldom. Usually, when we
try to get something for nothing we
pay a higher price than we would
have done under ordinary circum-
stances.
Taking advantage OF another by
means OF a scheme offered by third
party is invariably fake. Why
should somebody show us how to
cheat somebody else? 1t is a bait.
alluring enough. but It conceals a
very sharp hook.
Signing contracts which are con-
fusing and difficult to understand
any effort to confuse and hurry one
so that he will not know certainly
Just what he is doing is usually a
fake.
Many a good proposition, carefully
and honestly thought out and based
on truth. is turned down for some
wildcat, impossible scheme.
Let us expect what is reasonable
and we will fall into traps less
frequently.

employ 400 or 500 men from Octo-
Der until February. turning the un-

HAD TO WAIT FOR MS CAR
Little Incident That Shows Rapidly
Of Modern Methods Of Construct
Ing Automobiles.

New stories really are coming up
every day about a popular-priced
automobile. A manufacturer needed
a utility car around the place to do
the thousand-and-one errands. His
general manager went to the Detroit
distributor of the popular-priced car,
and asked whether he could buy one
right away. The dealer said that
there were so many orders ahead that
it would be hard to tell when a car
could be had.
The manager was very good
friend of relative of the manufac-
turer of the "boats," and he went out
to the factory in an endeavor to get
a car right away.
"Your downtown dealer told me
he did not know when | could get
delivery on a car" said the appli-
cant. 81 need one at our factory
right away. Can you help me out p
1t was then ten o'clock in the morn
ing. Note the time-ten o'clock in
the morning.
Sorry, old man, but we are
rushed to death with orders, and l
can't promise you immediate deliv-
cry. You will have to wait some
time, [ am afraid" said the man at
the factory.
"Well, l have to have one, and
maybe you can hurry it through"
81 don't see how under any cir
cumstances we can deliver it to you
before this afternoon" replied the
factory man.-Indianapolis News.

next Monday evening, February 26,
at 8 o'clock, when Mrs. Lillian F.
Feickert of Plainfeld, president of
the New Jersey State Woman Suf-
frage Association will speak on the
topic, Reasons for Woman Suf-
frage." Undoubtedly there will be
a large audience as all who favor
the extension of the franchise to
women will wish to be present not
only to hear Mrs. Feickert speak,
but to thus give personal sanction to
the great movement of which she
is so enthusiastic a supporter and
exponent. There are many persons
whose knowledge of this subject is
insufficient to enable them to form
any definite opinions thereon. Both
the Open Forum Club and our local
Woman Suffrage Association hope
that not only advocates and oppo-
nents of Equal Suffrage, but those
who are at sea" with prospect to
this great movement and which
whether for good or i'll is gathering
followers and strength every day
will come to hear Mrs. Feickert
speak.

dismissed from the force by Mayor

and the commission of a crime.
Putnam, whom Gill said at the time
of his own trial on the charge of ac-
cepting a bribe, was one man in a
thousand as to integrity, was dis
missed on charge based on Putnam'S
testimony that he had operated a
gambling house in an effort to see

RACE FOR FISH
GROWS KEEN IN
SOUND WATERS
Canneries Equip All Corners and Rush
Them Out to the Salmon
Grounds.

Every effort is being put forth by
the canneries of Prince William sound
to secure fishing, according to reports
brought her by Cal NJ. BrOsius of
Brosius & Noon, who returned this
morning from Eshammey bay on the
sloOp Augusta C. of the Kenai Fish
ing & Trading company.
Fishermen from COrdova and the
new cannery at Port Nellie Juan are
thick around the southwest end of
Prince William sound" said Brosius.
"The manager of the Port Nellie Juan
concern has men out in all directions
to whom he furnishes boats, gear,
nets, gasoline and food. Any one who
even looks like a fisherman is grabbed
and put to work. The same condition
prevails at Cordova and the boats of
the rival canneries are on the watch
for fish at every available point.
Wherever three or four men are work
ing at the same point, the companies
send out small barges and make a
round trip every day to gather up
the catch. Each man keeps his own
tally which he files in can at the
time he discharges his catch aboard
the barge, and these tally sheets are
checked by the man in charge of the
tender.
at is evident that the catch in
Prince William sound is going to be
a record breaker if the fish run ac-
cording to expectations"
