SPORTSMEN START
! MOST FOREST FIRES
Statistics Show That Some People
Are in Favor of Destroying 3.
Others Woods by Fire
MUCH PROPERTY Is DAMAGED

The report on forest fires in North
Carolina for 1913 would indicate at
the best stolid Indifference while
the reports of some special fires
would seem to show that some of our
people are passively in favor of burn
ing other peoples woods.
Last year was not exceptionally
dry, nor did fires seem to be worse
than usual, yet summary of the re-
ports made by voluntary correspon-
dents from less than two-thirds of
the townships. of the state shows that
100000 acres of land were burned
over, causing a total damage, of
$858,O00 This is somewhat less
than the average for the past four
years, but is more than the nine
year average, especially if the dis
astrous year of 1915 be eliminated.
Property Damaged
The damage to the different kinds
of property was divided as follows:
Value of standing timber
destroyed ..........-........$30O,0 900
Value of young growth
destroyed ............. 100000
Value of forest products de-
strOyed ---...-.--.........-..-... $40 900
Value of improvements de-
StrOyed ------..----.--....... 145 900
or the total damage reported 80
per cent occurred in the mountains;
l2 percent in the Piedmont region
and So per cent in the coastal plain
region.
In 1918 a total of 1875 fires were
reported. Seventeen per cent of
these we're less than one-fourth acre
in extent, but So per cent covered
ten acres or more. Fires were fairly
evenly distributed over the three
regions of the state, altho in the
coastal plain there were more large
fires.
The Cause
The causes of these fires CORES
pond very closely with the causes
given for the past nine years. The
careless burning of brush, etc.,
caused 27.5 per cent of the fires;
hunters II per cent; campers, 2 per
cent; railroads, Is per cent; lumber
ing operations, II per cent; light
ming, 1.5 per cent; miscellaneous, As
per cent. Only per cent were said
to be incendiary, while 1916 per cent
we're of unknown origin.
1t would seem that we are un-
a careless people, and the
burning of brush and rubbish in dry,
windy weather shows AN absolute in
Inference to the rights of the prop
erty of others. In developing our
state along new lines we must EN-
leavor to overcome these destructive
by education, and by a
general approval and enforcement of
he laws.

versary OF the founding Of The Idaho
Republican. The first copy Of thu
paper was printed on July az, 1904
Hard Fight at First Wi 4at
AS q business venture the start
ing OF the new paper was a very
FOOLISH venture. It thought it had
call Tor service and q reason fol
existance, but its founder learned q
great deal about those things within
a few years. During the first few
months one feature Of the paper was
the space given to booster articles,
telling about the country's resources
In the course of time it became
necessary to omit those articles and
devote more time to making ,expen-
ses and less time to working for the
community or for individuals of the
community.
Patrons of the First Issue
The men who advertised in the
first issue of the paper were D H.
Biethan, Brown-Eldredge, Orton
Brothers, the piano dealers, Scott &
Co., the druggists, Nelson the
photographer, Tupper's Furniture
company, the Denver & Rio Grande
Railroad Co., David Aliens livery,
Mcdonald & Barnhart Real Estate.
b. s. Rupp, the architect and DR..
McAtee the dentist.
A Meyer Circulation
The paid circulation of the paper
at that time was twenty-six copies.
The unpaid circulation, which in
reality was sample copies, was 1174.
Proud Of Country Telephone List
The manager Of the telephone ex-
change, Frang Pitt, announced the
names of fifteen persons across
Snake river, who were taking the
telephone service. They were John
Oborn, O. F. Smith, Adam Yancey,
G. W. Bailey, c M. Bumgarner, w.
T. Hawkey, G w. Gushwa, l.. Al
good, T. A. Stewart, Joseph Wearing,
J. G. Hinkle, William Plant, T. D.
Brown, L. J. Porter and P. J.
Johnston.
The People Seemed UncOncerned
The first copy of the paper was fed
thru the press by Miss Julia Ander-
son, who was then the superinten-
dent of schools. A few gallons of
lemonade were supplied in the Of
flee to refresh the visitors who had
gathered and the advent of the new
paper in the county attracted very
little attention. People got along
very we'll without it both before and
after it came out.
Linotype Finally Installed
For year and a half it was
losing proposition. The loss being
$4,000 for eighteen months, then for
number of years it alternately
made and lost money in small
quantities. There were three weekly
newspapers in the town and after
two of them went out of business the
one that remained made a few hun
dred dollars in few weeks, bought |
a linotype and began to modernize
its methods and equipment. When |
the paper was seven or eight years |
old it paid expenses or a profit most |
of the time.

Daily Field Not Ripe Yet

At intervals during the fifteen
years the publisher has sometimes
become ambitious to turn the paper
into daily, but there has never been
time that it would have made
money had that been done The
paper began with very little capital;
the publisher had very little eyper
ience, knew nearly nothing about
the newspaper or printing business,
and had he known even half the diff
tlculties of building up a newspaper
the attempt would not have been
made. The same can probably be
said OF almost every other business
in the town. There have been times
The Idaho Republican., 1919-07-25

in the experience of those who have
founded almost any business when
they regretted the undertaking.
Kindly Spirit Appreciated
The publisher of The Republican
feels grateful to the public for being
charitable with his mistakes and
blunders in learning the newspaper
business so far as it has been learned
and asks their indulgence for the in
evitable mistakes of the future.
