leaving 1,27l 900 acres remaining with
drawn. From the La Grande withdraw
al &c, 600 acres will be eliminated, leav'
sing in the withdrawal 265,5SO acres,
,while l44 $40 acres will be taken out OF
the Joseph River withdrawal, leaving
but III 92O acres remaining. The
Maury Mountain withdrawal, when TO-
600 acres have been restored to entry,

convinced of the advislbility of creating
such a reserve, and will probably ad-

.acticable means of creating the Rogue
River reserve without including Large
tracts of railroad lands, and this Com

probable permanent reserves will ultl-

For some reason unexplained, Secre-
tsrv Hitchcock has not ordered the
