LIBERTY OF THE PRESS"
A great victory for the liberty
of the press was attained few
days ago in the state of Arkan-
sas. The case was the following:
Two colored newspapermen of
the little town of Little Rock
l., Christopher Bates and his wife
commented in a March edition
Of their weekly, the ruling again
st three colored laborers accused
of violation of the state law
against violence in strikes. The
newspaper said that the workers
had been sent to Jail by a jury
expressly selected in the Circuit
Court of Little Rock, and that
the judge, Lawrence Auten, of
said court, had instructed the
jury improperly. Judge Auten
summoned Mr.. and Mrs. Bates
for neglect of court and sentenc-
ed them 500 and 10 days i'm
prisonment.

MORE LUMBER FOR
TIMBER PRODUCTS

Missoula, Montana, April 10 =
Increased sales of timber from the
national forests of Montana, north
ern Idaho and eastern Washington
during the first quarter of 1916
indicate that there will be con.
siderable increase in the amount Oh
lumber and other timber products
produced during the coming year
according to A. G. Lindh, Forest
Service regional timber manage
ment chief at Missoula, Mont.
Sales for the quarter in the re-
gion reached 1888, 900 board feet
valued at 1926, 295, with sales being
made in accordance with a sus-
tanned yield program. Additional
chances covering large volumes OF
timber are being publicly avertised
and will be awarded soon. The
Lewis & Clark Forest in Montana
tops the list with a sale of 3d.
478,000 board feet. In Idaho the
forest showing the greatest activity
was the Kaniksu. The outstanding
increase of timber sales mounting
to more than twice that cut the
first quarter of last year will soon
be converted into building lumber,
railroad ties, fence posts and cleo
trical transmission lines, said Lindh.
While the volume of sales during
the first quarter of 1916 points to-
ward a greater contribution in lum-
Der production to the Nations hous-
ing program the volume of business
can be still further increased with
in the sustained yield principle pro-
vided additional roads are con-
structed to open up back country
to over-mature timber, Lindh said
The national forests are not now
being used to their capacity but
in the volume of timber
production will depend upon further
development of the areas.
The report listed for the quarter
10 sales in the more than $4,000 /
bracket, Is between $1,000 and S. i
600, g between $5Ol and ST 900, and I
455 at $500 or less.

Severe Earthquake Shakes
Caribbean Area On Sunday

Miami, Fla.-The most severe
earthquake in decades shook the
Caribbean area Sunday and was
felt around the world. 1t appar-
ently conferred near the U. S.
'sland possession of Puerto Rico.
Seismologists. startled and ex-
cited by its violence, said that If
it struck heavily populated re-
gion, it probably took heavy toll
of lives.
The quake was recorded at the
Navy Air Station near San Juan,
Puerto Rico, at 1:49 p. m. (e.d.tD
and the tremors were continuing
two hours later.
Seismologists in London, New
York, California and Buenos Aires
agreed it was one of the heaviest
quakes of recent history and said
il was recorded on instruments
everywhere on the globe.
Center Of the quake was not
Immediately determined, but 1t
was roughly located near Puerto
Rico and Santa Domingo. A seis-
mologist in England said that if
| it occurred on the ocean floor 1t
would roll up great tidal waves.
First direct reports from San
Juan said telephone service there
was Interrupted temporarily,
clocks stopped and chandeliers
swayad.
However, no damage or casual
ties was reported Immediately.
, Instruments indicated the quake
was worse than the one which
partly destroyed Mayaguez, Puer-
/ to Rico, in 1918, but yesterdays
shock was centered some distance
from San Juan.
At Ponce, on the south coast of
Puerto Rico - the opposite side
from San Juan-the quake shook
barrels of rum from their racks
and sent them bouncing into the
street where they burst.
Argentine seismologists placed
the quake either in the West In
dies or along the coast of Vene-
zuela or the Guinas in South
America.
They described it as a quake of
disastrous intensity
Cable offices reported that no
damage had been reported in the
Virgin Islands or St. Christopher's
Island (St. Kitt's).
The All-American Cable Com
pany reported that the tremors
were felt at Port Au Prince,
Haiti, to the west. Wesern Union
said it was operating as usual
into the Turks Islands north of
Haiti.
