LIBERAL POLICY
FOREST RESERVES
Cattle and Sheep Allowed to Craze Un-
der Proper Restrictions Prop
erty Rights Respected.

r. E. Benedict, of the Bureau of For
estry United States Department of
Agriculture, who is in charge of the Of
fetal examination of lands proposed for
additions to and eliminations from for
est reserves in New Mexico, Arizona,
Colorado and Utah, returned recently
from Sandoval County, where he was
for three weeks making the final exam
ination of the proposed Jemez Forest
Reserve and to make the final recon-
mendations, concerning the withdraw
ais, etc. His assistant, r. V. R. Rey-
nolds, is still in the field, making the
examination in the northern part of
the proposed forest reserve. While in
the city Mr.. Benedict had a consulta-
ton with Forest Inspector E. T. AL
len, of Washington D. c., who has the
field supervision of the same work
throughout the western states, in re-
gard to the reserve.
Before leaving for Arizona, Mr.. Ben
edict stated that much of the withdraw
al, in the proposed Jemez Reserve, was
not suitable for reserve purposes, be-
ing treeless or more valuable for agri-
cultural purposes and that such por-
tions will be recommended for restor-
alton to the public domain.
"It is not the governments inten-
.tion," he said, "to include any lands
which are more valuable for other pur.
poses and in all cases, should any new
reserves be made, the boundaries will
be drawn only after careful examina-
tions, with view to excluding all areas
suitable for settlement. To the same
end am to examine many portions of
existing reserves, where elimination
seems likely to be advisable. Every
effort will be made to avoid disturbing
legitimately established industries.
Sheep and cattle grazing will be rec.
commended with only such restrictions
as are necessary to prevent destruc-
ton of the range or of the water sup
ply.
"In all cases priority or other rights
to the range will be protected from un.
fair competition, the actual resident or
settler receiving first consideration.
Mining and prospecting are in no way

interfered with by reserve regulations,
settlers and prospectors being allowed
free use of timber and lumber compan-
les may purchase under restrictions,
which provide against fire and waste.
The object is not to tie up any resourc-
es but to insure the fullest and most
permanent use by the community, and
to give the latter the advantage of gov
ernment aid and funds to protect
against the destruction of timber need
ed for local use and of the water sup
ply, upon which agriculture in the
southwest is wholly dependent"
Mr.. Allen left Wednesday night for
Phoenix, Arizona, where he will dis
cuss reserve matters with the territor-
ial officials and will return here within
week to meet Governor Otero. Mr..
Benedict left the same night for Tus-
con, to examine certain proposed elm
nations from the Gila River Reserve.

ROUGH RIDERS
AS ESCORTS
Will Attend the President at Inaugural
ton With the Black Horse Troop
of Cleveland.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 19.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt's old regiment, the
Rough Riders. and the famous Black
Horse Troop of Cleveland, Ohio, will
probably serve as his escort when he
is inaugurated President on March 4,
1905. Representative James H. Sher-
man, of New York, has asked the Presi-
dent to accord the honor of his escort
to the Conkling Unconditional Club of
Utica. New York, one of the largest
and best equipped Republican march
ing clubs in the United States. The
President said that he would be pleas
ed to do so, but that he felt that it
would be more appropriate for him to
be escorted by squadron of men who
served under him in the Rough Riders.
and the Black Horse Troop, of Cleve-
land, Ohio. The latter organization
served as escort to President Mckinley
at the inaugurations in 1897 and 1901.
II any civilian organization acts as his
escort, It will be the Roscoe Conkling
Club. 50.

PROGRESS IN THE
ESTANCIA VALLEY
Many New Settlers and Homeseekers
Have Arrived There Within
Past Few Months.

Recent reports from the Estancia
Valley are very encouraging for the
future of that garden spot of the Ter
ritory. During the past few months
there has been large influx OF set
tiers to the fertile plains of the Val
ley and from the splendid showing
made this year in agricultural, cattle
and sheep raising lines, it is safe to
predict that with many new farmers
and stockraisers and the results of re-
cent experiments. the coming year will
be a good one in stock raising and ag-
ricultural pursuits.
There is vast distinction between
the people who are now coming to this
section of New Mexico and those who
came with the railroad, in that the first
arrivals settled on the land and took it
up for speculative purposes. while the
later arrivals have come, attracted by
the reports of the f1ourishing condition
of this section, to make homes for
themselves and their families. These,
the home,seekers. are the kind of peo-
ple that the Territory needs, and the
people of the Estancia Valley extend
to them a hearty welcome and all aid
necessary in seeking homes and FARM
ing lands and giving them the benefit
of their experience in the past.
A good many of these new settlers
were attracted to the Valley bv descrip
tive literature sent them by the Terri
torial Bureau of immigration and by
letters received by them from
the bureau, giving them facts and fig.
ures and describing in attractive Ian.
guage In illustrated pamphlets the de.
