Third Assistant Postmaster General
Madden has given out a comparative
statement of the issue of postage
stamps, stamp books, stamped envel-
opes, newspaper wrappers and postal
cards from 1896 to 1901. Including an
estimate for the last fifteen days Of
this month, the total number issued
the present fiscal year is 5,711, 764 $50,
an increase of 1,516,O99, 1856, or thirty
six per cent. over the total issue in
1896. Their local value is S1O5, $50 33S,
an increase of S25,972.237, or thirty
three per cent over 1896.
Charges have recently been filed in
the general land office of the wanton
killing of elk in the Yellowstone Ma
tional Park and the adjoining forest re-
serve, and the assistance of that Of
flee has been asked in stamping out
the depredations. Commissioner Her.
mann sent instructions to the local for
estry officials to lend every possible as
sistance to the state authorities in de-
tecting and bringing to justice the Of
Tending poachers and indiscriminate
hunters. The land office is without au-
thority to assume charge of these mat
tiers, but is glad to cooperate with the
state authorities. This unlawful kill
ing of elk and other game is said to
have gone on throughout the past win
ter, but no idea is given of the extent
to which 1t has been carried.

Denver Republican Special.)-J. E.
Whitson and John Stuckey, members
of the Colorado and California Oil
Company, came to this city the middle
of May and in a quiet way began op-
erations to secure land under lease for
oil purposes. They placed their bus
mess in the hands of Goff 4 Gate

acres of land leased for the company.
Three wells will be sunk-one at Pal
isade. one just north of this city and
one west. This company is also in
terested in the Routt company oil field
and the drilling tools that have been
used in that county will be brought
here and the work of putting down
the wells will begin.
J. E. Whitson is the president of the
company, which owns and operates a
number of valuable wells in the Cali
fornia field.
