WHY FOREST FIRE PLAGUE DEFIES CURE West side of Cedar Street Forest fire protection is a question of public morals. People do not reaâ€" lize how much we depend upon the products of the forests for our comâ€" forts and necessities. We come in contact with these products â€" every hour of the day and every day of our lives, from the wooden cradle to the long wooden box.

We ought to ask whether that settler made army attempt to put out his fire when he saw it getting beyond him. We ought to ask how many settlers passed by that fire withâ€" out offering a hand to put it out.

Before we ‘beeome too critical we ought to ask if there are not the lines of a big railway system running ‘through the North Country that has been practically indifferent to the reâ€" gulations in regard to the care of enâ€" gines that throw .off sparks along the right of way. The railways are resâ€" monsible for over 40 per cent. of the fires that occeur in the North Country. As I said in the beginning, forest fire protection is a question of public morals, and it will never be adequate until we have educated this carelessâ€" ness and indifference with regard to the destruction of public property on which our welfare depends. We should protect the ghings we value.

An investigaâ€" tion is being conducted to place the responsibility for the accident, the mine having all the required rules and equipment to guard against such accidents, and the accident being due apparently to the<ack of care or atâ€" tention of some employee.
