what to do with Them Serious Question
For Onictals.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-What to do
with the forest reserves has been seri-
ous question in the, department Of the
interior. Congress passed law provid-
ing for setting apart tracts of lands as
forest reserves, and when so set apart,
they could not be entered upon for any
purpose whatever. Acting under this
law the president has, from time TO
time, set apart tracts which are known
as forest reservations, and which are
now on the governments hands. In
all there are over 1900, 600 acres thus
reserved in the states Of California, Ore
gon, Washington, Colorado, Wyoming,
Montana and in Utah and Arizona ter
ritories. No provision whatever has
been made for taking care of these res
ervations. Under the law they are re-
served to the government and no person
can make use Of them, yet there is
nothing to prevent persons from going
upon them or in any other way defeat
ing the object of the legislation and the
reservation proclamation. Persons
might be prosecuted afterwards, but
there is no means of preventing depre-
dations. Neither is there any way
To Prevent Forest Fires
or other methods of destruction. The
persons interested in forest preservation
were instrumental i'm having the reser-
walton law passed, and the reservations
made. They have also tried to secure
lands for the protection of forests, but
30 far without success. One of the most
enthusiastic forestry men in the present
administration is Assistant Commis-
sioner Bowers of the general land Office.
He has been doing good deal towards
having reservations made and has also
been urging legislation for their preser-
vation and protection. Commissioner
Lamoreaux ID . practical lumberman,
and referring TO the value of the timber
ON these forest reservations, says that
no timber Is valuable unless it is within
o marketable distance Of streams or
railroads and at present none Of the
timber or these reservations could be
sold. Already there have been plans
presented for making national parks Of
these reservations, and If the first plan
fails, then an effort viii be made TO
turn them over to the several states
for state parks.
