WOOLCROWERS
in Convention at Portland Pass Resolu. tiens Regarding Forest Reseves-
 want to Craze lm All Reseues.

The National Woolgrowers' conven- tion held in Portland, Oregon, last week and transacted business import ant to the industry and among the things discussed were the following:
 The constitution, as read, Aas unan- imously sustrined. The condition of the range and sheep industry in the western states was briefly reviewed by representative sheep raisers, The con- census of opinion was that the govern ment in setting aside extensive forest reserves for'the purpose of aiding ir- rigation and bettering natural water supplies was going to the extreme and cutting down the ranges to an un- warranted degree.
 In few words, the expressed desire of the sheepmen is that the govern ment shall adopt broader and more liberal plan in relation to the public lands. The sheepmen want permission to use the reserves for grazing, sub ject to such regulations as the govern ment may see fit to adopt for the pro- tection of the forest reserves. It was suggested that the relief sought by sheepmen would be attained, could they secure the passage of bill now pending in congress transferring the executive control of the public lands to the department of agriculture from the department of the interior. Reso- lzeions expressing the desire of the convention for the passage of bill were unanimously adopted and copies were ordered sent congress.
