IRRIGATION AND FORESTRY.
Views cf Hon. Binger Herman, Land
 Commissioner, on the Matters.

The Binger Herman party returned here Saturday night from a visit to the Grand Canyon. Mr. Herman desired to obtain as much knowledge of the forest reserve a, possible in his hurried trip. At five o'clock Sunday morning he started out for three hour drive through the pine forest in this vicinity. returning in time to take the west bound train for California.
 In an interview published In the Los Angeles Herald. Mr Herman says:
 am opposed to the leasing of the public domain for grazing purposes. Experience has demonstrated to us hat 1t Is impracticable to place the grazing lands in the control of few men or corporations to the exclusion of great number of poor settlers who wish 10 Oc- cupy the public domain. and who now have free use of the grazing lands for limited herds. Secondly. leasing. d. a general rule. prevents occupation of the public domain by settlers. wherever such lands are capable of heinz occupied for homestead purposes.
 ''It has also been demonstrate ed that there is very general opposition on the part of the western people to giving those residing on the front fer exclusive l grazing privileges. The bills inlro- duced at the last session of congress providing for leasing the public domain met with much general objection. num- erOus remOnstrances having come in ] from all portions of the west.
 ''Reclamation of the arid lands of the

west is more studied and better under- stood by the eastern people than in pre- vious years. In my judgment the time is close at hand when it will become the great problem of our national legisla- ture what relief may be afforded as to the reclamation of the arid lands of the puplic domain"
 The fact was explained to Commits sioner Herman that certain advocates of federal irrigation are claiming that the government will take up the task of providing irrigation water for private as well as public lands, and he was asked:
 "Will New England ever consent to the use of national funds for the devel- opement of private lands in the west?'
 The answer came immediately: "COn- gress has no jurisdiction over the de- velopment of water for private lands. That must he state issue. and each state must solve the problem for itself.'
 The commissioner continued: "There are several projects before congress. One is for the government to donate the arid lands to the several states. Another is for the federal government itself to retain control over its domain and engage in extensive irrigation work. including the maintainance of a forestry system. A third sentiment is for the retention of the Carey act as it stands at present. They believe that 1t is sufficient, while others believe that the law should be amended in many respects, in order to make it more conducive to the ends desired"
 The commissioner declined to state his position regarding the several pro- iects. saying that they involved issues m which he might be obliged to sit in
