Elk City mining news. (Elk City, Idaho) 1903-1913, 1905-06-10
Modified Proclamation.

A special from Helena to the
Tribune says Governor James K.
Toole has received copy of the
proclamation of President Roose-
velt modifying a former procla-
nation creating the Bitter Root
forest reserve in Montana and
Idaho. The proclamation is dated
at Washington May 22, and it
provides that lands in Montana
which had been excluded from
settlement and which are therein
restored to the public domain
shall be open to settlement from
the date mentioned, but shall not
be subject to entry, filing or Sc
lection until after 80 days notice
by such publication as the secre-
tory of the interior may prescribe.
The presidents action is based
on the law approved June A, 1897,
authorizing him to reduce the
area or change the lines of such
reserves. The proclamation states
that the change is made for what
the president considers the pub
lie good.
Elk City mining news. (Elk City, Idaho) 1903-1913, 1905-06-10

corner Of the proposed reserve
begins on the western boundary
of the present Bitter Root forest
reserve and at the northeast cor
ner of township 81 north, range
5 east. The northern part of the
proposed addition to the reserve
is but three miles wide, but far
ther south widens until the width
of three townships are absorbed.
The town of Clearwater and prac-
tically all of the country drained
by the south fork of the Clear
water river and the eastern trib-
utaries of the Salmon river are
includen in these withdrawn por-
tions.
The announcement of the with
drawal of timber lands in the
Clearwater country several weeks
ago for forest reserve purposes.
aroused a bitter feeling among
the settlers and the view is held
here that the recent action of the
department will be bitterly op-
posed by the settlers residing in
the country affected, 1t is stated
that the land now withdrawn in
cludes a major portion of the
available government land suit
uble for agricultural purposes
and many settlers now have good
homes in the district that are
held by squatters' rights.

State Lands.

According to the Bonners Fer
ry Herald the state of Idaho still
has 100000 acres of government
land to select for the benefit of
the state institutions. Hon. j.
G. Munsen, state land commits
sioner, now has four parties of
selectors in the field looking up
land to file upon. One of these
parties is in charge of ]. K. Ash
ley of Sand point, and another in
charge of S. D. Taylor. They
have been working in township
81 north, 1 and 2 east, and on
Fall creek and Pack River for
some little time.
The recent withdrawal of large
areas of public lands by the gen.
eral government in view of es-
tablishlng forest reserves, makes
it very difficult for the state to
secure its full quota of lands to
advantage. The state had ex-
pected to make selections in the
Clearwater timber belt, land re-
mote from settlement, but which
will be of great value in time, but
the withdrawal of all lands in
that locality for a forest reserve,
compelled it to go elsewhere. 1t
will require pretty close search
to secure valuable lands to the
amount required, and the state
may be compelled to look pretty
closely into the good faith of some
of the squatters on timber lands.
A large bunch of thanks is due
Senator Dubois for this state of
affairs, as he is urging the Gre
alton Of forest reserves in Idaho
with all the prestige of a United
States senator.

Idaho at the Fair.

The Moscow Journal says Idaho
distinguished herself in a social
way at the opening of the Port
land fair, and Governor Gooding
and staff have been proportion
ately busy.
Idaho had two carriages in the
parade, being assigned the posi-
tion directly behind Washington
and nearer the front. In them
sat Governor Gooding, Adjutant
General Vickers, Assistant Adju-
tant General Major Workman
and Commissary General Lieu
tenant Colonel Samuel Myers.
From 2:30 to 4 in the afternoon
the Idaho people rendered an in
formal reception in the Idaho
building where luncheon was
served.
1t is conservatively estimated
that 5000 people visited Idaho's
building on that day, 765 people
passing the door in one hour. Il
see they are going to wear the
floor out" sententiously remarked
Governor Gooding as the throng
poured in, "and l am glad of it. /"
Its proximity to the front of
the magnificent New York build
ing, where all social functions
will be held, means a constant
inspection by the best and wealth
lest people attending the fair.

Not a Statement of Timber Co.

The Lewiston Tribune copied
this papers reply to 1.-THE Friend
to the Open River" which ap-
peared last week, and either
through mistake or for the pur-
pose of misleading its readers,
the Tribune placed heading over
the article calling it a Statement
of the Timber Companies" No
timber company had anything to
do with it, and no timber syndi-
cate has any strings on this paper.
1t was a plain statement of facts,
which cannot fail to meet the
approval of settlers in the terri
tory proposed to be put in the
forest reserve, as we'll as all other
honest fairminded citizens of
north Idaho, and the Tribune
knows it.
1t is the common belief of a
great many that the Weyerhauser
Timber Syndicate is back of this
wholesale withdrawal of millions
of acres of timber land in Idaho.
We do not vouch for the correct
ness of this belief, because we do
not know that they are back of
it, but as they have had nothing
whatever to say against it, we
take it that if they are not actu-
ally backing up this scheme to
rob the state of Idaho and the
people thereof, they are, at least,
perfectly satisfied to have all
these millions of acres reserved
for future generations-3of Wyer-
hausers. They have placed scrip
on many thousands of acres which
holds good in the townships with
drawn. If placed in the forest
reserve their scrip holdings will
be zealously watched over and
protected from fires by forest
rangers in the pay Of the govern
ment, and they would have nc
taxes to pay. Besides this adj
vantage they would undoubtedly
be furnished an opportunity in g
few years to gobble up a large
portion of the land which was
claimed by squatters at the time
the withdrawal was made, fol
not one settler in a hundred
would care to sacrifice his home
stead right for a claim on the re-
serve, where his freedom of ac
ton would be on a par with thai
of the serfs of Russia, and where
a title to his land might also b.
reserved for future generations
It is also noticeable that a few
newspapers in Idaho which are
or should be in a position to de
fend the rights of the people o.
the state have had little or moth
ing to say about this proposed
outrage. The reason for theil
..reticence may only be surmiset
at this time. Pierce City Miner
