the mine this morning to take from the
mines the bodies of their fellow work
men These latter were killed by a sec

first explosion seemed to shake the
foundation of the mountains and the
angry twin flash from the two neigh
boring drift mouths lighted up the
heavens for miles around. Soon from
the mining villages for several miles
up and down the river hundreds of peO-
pie rushed to the scene of the disaster
The first explosion was caused by a
naked flame coming in contact with the
gas The flames leaped from the drift
mouth and set fire to everything in the
mines which was not blown out by the
force Of the explosion. The great drum
by which the cars are run from the
drift mouth down the inclined TO the
tipple and the empties drawn up was
blown from its mOOTings and down the
mountain side 600 feet, and the drum

Grazing Fees on Reserves Upheld.

The policy for charging fees tor live
stock pastured on the forest reserves
having been upheld by the sentimen.
Of q majority of the stockmeh using
the reserves. and having been approved
by the President, the efforts of the
Forest Service are nov directed
toward rendering the grazing
privileges so occurred by permit OF the
tu lest value to the user consistent
with the permanent good of the
reserves.
Since the first grazing regulations
we're issued by the Secretary of Agri-
culture on July l last the Forest
Service has attertvely watched their
working in practice. 1t became
evident that they would need CERTAIN
notifications TO assure to stockmen a
uore equitable use of the range
Without in the least loosening those
essential restrictions on which the very
existence Of the live stock industry
depends. From the first. the main
body Of the grazing Interests quickly
grasped the advantages Of grazing
under a system of regulation, and
Justly appreciated the fairness OF a
reasonable charge which would secure
both the grazing privilege and a
permanent use Of the range. Naturally
enough the terms of the grazing
regulations have called forth discussion
and suggestion, but, with the exception
Of Colorado, protests have been
received from no grazing State calling
for more than the amendment Of
