BIG TIMBER IN WORTH
IDAHO NOT DAMAGED
Forest Fires Extensive but Con-
fined to Scrub Timber Lands
Says Senator Ralph Nelson
of Kootenai County.

while the forest fires in north Ida
no this season burned considerab BILE
area, but very little valuable timber
entirely confined to the scrub timber
district"
This statement was made today by
Senator Ralph Nelson of Kootenai
county. who Is here from Occur
6Alene on important legal business
which will keep him in the city sew
eral days
Like other cities in the northwest,
Senator Nelson declares Occur d'Alene
Is experiencing a wonderful growth, its
population is inc. ksing, new houses
arc being built anu It is recognized as
the convention city of the north.
Asked concerning the strike, Sena
tor Nelson said, The strike among
the timber workers amounted to but
little. 1t lasted but u short time and
only closed down the night shifts and
resulted in the union finally being or
dered to disband by the International
Timber Workers organization. The
mining strike Is more extensive and
has resulted in the mines being closed
with the exception of the Bunker Hill
Sullivan mine at Kellogg at which no
strike was called"
Relative to the visit OF President
Wilson in Occur d'Alene, Senator Mel
son said: He was accorded real
western welcome and made a most
pleasant speech, dealing in general
with the league of nations. but not dis
cussing in detail the issues on which
the public wished to be enlightened.
do not believe he changed the views
of any who were not favorable to the
league. Governor Davis was warmly
received and his introduction of the
chief executive of the nation was one
befitting to the entire state and
pleased Democrats and Republicans
alike"
Senator Nelson attended the fair to
day. ana will return to his northern
home the first of the week.

Poetical Inspiration.

It is not about great events that
great novels are written. The same
is true of great poems. Not "the 10
decisive battles Of the world" but
such relatively unlmportant ones as
Balaklava, Ivry. Hohenlinden and Blen-
helm have inspired the poets. Wa
terloo was considered to be the
greatest battle of modern times, but
the lines Byron Inserted in "Chllde
Harold" constitute the only memora-
BILE poem ever written about It. The
only ballad Of the Civil war, which
became fixed forever In peoples minds.
related to no great battle but to Stone
wall Jackson's march through the lit
tie town of Frederick.
The great events are peaks In the
mountain ranges of time, that leave
little to the Imagination. Literature
thrives by the streams Of legend and
glory that run down from them and
by the lanes and roads Of emotion,
aspiration, passion and endeavor that
lead up to them. The side lights and
side issues and everyday events make
literature, as they make life itself.

Government Plans
Farms For Soldiers

WASHINGTON.-With an ever
increasing flood of men returning
home from the war to take up anew
the tasks of civil life, many of them
with greatly changed ideas of life
and ambition and in a quandry as to
just what to do, are appealing to the
Department OF the Interior for in
formation as to the intentions of the
Government in its proposed plan Of
providing farms for soldiers.
Such a deluge of requests has been
received from the men who wore the
uniform as to emphasize the lesson OF
all other wars that the service men,
because of army life, with its open
ness and activity, largely seek out
of-doors vocations.
The Interior Department has al
ready explained to more than 10000
men THAT the development of its
plans rests solely with Congress. It
is expected that early in tie extra
session which convened May 10, there
will be introduced bills covering the
farms-for-soldiers plan.
\ Briefly the Department is saying
that, If such legislation is passed,
work will begin at once in the de-
yelopment of cooperative farm set
Elements for soldiers and sailors in
nearly all of the States. In practi-
cally every state in the Union there
are large areas OF land suitable for
this purpose. There is dry land in
the West that needs water, which can
be provided by building dams and
canals. In the East are large areas
of cut-over or logged-off timber lands
from which It will be necessary to
blow the stumps and clear off the
underbrush. In the South is large
amount of cut-over land and swamp
land which must be drained.
Many of the sildiers have asked II
it will be possible for them to oh
tain job near their homes by drain
ing, clearing, irrigating and improv-
ing these lands. That again depends
upon the action of Congress in pro-
viding the money for construction.
The plans propose that these settle
ments be scattered all over the
country, so that it would be possible
for every honorably discharged sol
der or sailor or marine to work near

There was no sentiment about the

he told her.

Of the honor you do me, but that l am

"That, with a suggestion that 1t is
very sudden, would be the sentimental
way, but l will merely say that the
first option is already taken"
''Then there Is no hope?"
"How foolish" she commented. "As

a first option does not necessarily
mean a closed contract. II you don't
want to take chance on second OPP
