Report on Timber Reserve.

( Following is an extract from the re
port of James Giendeuuing superiutend-
! ent of the Bitter Root timber reserve who
has spent the past summer in the Clear
water BASIN
Public opinion is reported TO have
undergone of late a material change III
favor Of reservation, owing to a better
understanding Of the objet of same. II
is fast becoming more generally ap-
preCiated that it is not intended to with
hold these great areas from the general
use Of the public and practically lock up
their resources; but that the purpose is
to maintain and utilize their forest pro-
ducts in state of the highest continued
production for the direct benefit of the
people In other words, the public mind
begins to distinguish between a forest
reservation and national park or an
Indian reservation. And, with this clearer
comprehension as to the purposes to be
served by forest reserves, opposition there
to is subsiding.
Efficient protection from the scourge
Of fire and the regulation Of s!!cep graz
ing in connection with adopting system
OF timber cutting with a view to the
satisfaction Of local demands for forest
products, will, doubtless, serve to rapidly
5, tile the question of farther opposition
from citizens having the public welfare
at heart.
80 far, it has not been possible TO
practically enter upon the work of con-
Quoting sales Of timber, as provided for
i'll the act of June !, 1897. The subject
demands, however, immediate attention
as leading feature of forest administra-
ton, and as such is now receiving careful
consideration in this office, with a view
to inaugurating rational system of TIM
Der cutting, which, while keeping in
view the Improvement of the forest, will
supply local demands for forest products,
and at the same time yield a fair return
i'll money to the government"
