itical achievements and through his
own efforts (.'ox has amassed a for
tune. Mr. ('ox became the leader of
the Democratic party in DM2 when he
was nominated for governor. As one
who brought radical changes in the
constitution, he took the field in its
behalf. His first term as governor
was devoted chiefly to forwarding the,
enactment of laws to put the new
state constitution into effect.
But Ohio evidently was not prepar
ed to assimilate all the new laws
for Cox was defeated for re-election.
But h*s party renominated him in 101(5
and he was re-elected for a third term
in 101s. being the only Democrat to
win in Ohio.

Legislation for which Governor Cox
is best known includes a model work
men’s compensation law ami a child
labor law which have been exten
sively copied by other states. Educat
ors of the country say the Ohio school
code, enacted under Governor ( ox s
direction, will live as a monument to
his achievements.
Mr. (’ox was horn in Butler county,
Ohio, in 1870. He attended district
school and held his first position as
a teacher of the school in which he
took his first lessons. He spent even
ings and holidays in a printing office.
In a few years he received his first
assignment on the reportorial staff of
the Cincinnati Enquirer.
After ten years with the Enquirer,,
he went to Washington as a private
secretary to Congressman i’aul Sore,
of Ohio. At the close of this service,
he purchased the Dayton Daily News,
hoi rowing most of the money to pay
for it. Later he purchased the Spring
field Daily News. He was first elect
ed to congress in 1008.
He recently purchased the farm near
where he was horn, and is making it
into a modern faint home where he
expects to live on retirement from
public office. He is married and has
four children.

maintenance of permanent improve
ments, $1,900 for maintenance of gov

.he balance for general administra
tive expenses such as rent, light fuel,
telephone services, travel expenses,
freight, etc.
The appropriations for the year just
ended totaled $16,830.
Practically all of the money allotted
to the Chugaeh forest is spent lo
cally; that is, at the settlement with
in and near the forest. Besides th.«
headquarters office at Cordova, field
officers are maintained throughout
the year at Seward and Katalla, with
’ 1
temporary men stationed during ♦hr
fire season at Anchorage, Girdwood,
and Hope.
According to the annual timber ic
, po t just compiled by the office of
the Chugaeh national forest for the
fiscal year ended June 20, the timber
sale business of the forest shows a
healthy increase. During the \vai
the service made 112 individual lim
ber >ales covering the equivalent of
6,138.070 board feet of timber having
a stum page value of $10,542.91. Much
i of this timber was in the form of pil
ing, trap poles, railroad ties, mining
timbers, etc. In addition to these
commercial sales, there was tala n
under free use permits by the Alas
kan engineering commission, the war
department and the bureau of public
roads timber to amount of 4,147,470
board feet having a stumpage value of
$6,419.00.
During the year previous the ser
vice made but 92 sales covering
5,249,650 board feet valued at $900,
125.
Up to the present season nine for
est fines have been reported as oc
curring in the Chugach national for
est, all of which were along the right
of way of the government railroad
between Seward and Anchorage. A
total of 258 acres were burned over,
but as all the fires occurred in brush
and grass lands no particular damage
was done. In order to prevent, so far
as possible, fires along the right of
way of the railroad the Alaskan engi
neering commission has just com
pleted equipping all locomotives and
steam shovels with spark arresters.
The forest seivice maintains fire
patrolmen at Roosevelt, Anchorage,
Girdwood and Hope, besides a district
ranger at Seward.
