Once more this country has had its
awful annual lesson on the subject of
forest tires. The terrible ravages of the
flames in Washington state will result
in the loss of many million dollars and
a loss of life that probably can never be
exactly known. Few incidents in the
history of the northwest are so tragic as
that of the four carpenters who jumped
to their death down a chasm 136 feet
deep while trying to extinguish the
flames upon a burning bridge. These
fires usually begin in one way—through
the criminal negligence of hunters and
campers. Occasionally a spark from a
railway engine wakes the tire fiend, but
generally it is the reckless. wicked
hunters who do it. The only way to
stop the annual destruction seems to be
for states themselves to enact forestry
laws with inspectors who are constantly
on guard during the warm Weather.
Five minutes in the beginning would
have extinguishml the flames that have
wrought such rain in Washin on.
