RICHARDS
ALRIGHT
Commissioner OF the General
Land Office Not Worried by the
Sensational Stories Being
Circulated by the Yellow Press

The many friends of ex-Gover-
nor Richards, now commissioner
of the the general land office at
Washington, have been somewhat
stirred up by the charges that
have been made against him, al
though not believing for a Mute
that criticism was in any sense
just.
1t is a we'll known fact that
when Mr.. Richards assumed his
duties that his department was
several years behind in its work.
Since he assumed authority the
records and everything in connec-
ton with the Office IT up to date
and in excellent condition.
a year ago when the commits
sioner was visiting Rawlins he
stated to Hon. VIM. Daley, Judge
Merrill and other old time friends
that he expected to resign early
in 1907, and would have left the
service sooner but for the solicita-
ton of the President. He pIann-
ed this step months ago and all
there is to the story is the fact
that he bad intimated to the Pres
ident his desire to return to his
ranch interests in Big Horn conn
ty, where he could better care for
his family, and Washington has
had no charms for him since the
death of Mrs. Richards.
Mrs. G.. w. McCreery, his
daughter here, this morning re-
ceived a telegram from him, stat
ing that she need not be alarmed
over the reports sent out and ind
mated that he would issue a state
ment today. Friends in this
state have full confidence in the
commissioner and regard the at
tack on him as purely democratic
political harrangue which has no
foundation.-Rawlins Republican.

of Lake creek and approaching
the town from the west, or going
straight on over to Spring creek.
1t was suggested that the Board
of Trade might be of assistance
in untangleing the difficulty of
procuring the right of way into
town and out up the Spring creek
route, along the Z. P. survey,
which had been offered by that
company and accepted by the S.
d E. people. To this end a COM
mittee, consisting of Messers Bak-
er, Devine and Blood, were ap-
pointed. The Board of Trade as
sured Mr. Hohl that it would do
all in its power toward procuring
the right of way and assist him in
ony other way possible.
The severe weather of the past
week has interfered with the work
of grading to some extent. The
graders are encamped in tents out
on the line and zero weather is
anything but pleasant where men
have no protection other than
tents. The weather has moderat.

Saratoga Boy Wins Out

j.. d. Paulson is in receipt of a
letter from his brother o. III.
Paulson, we'll known here, and a
member of the Saratoga Lodge of
Masons, saying that he had just
sold a mining claim at Ely, Ne
vada, for the sum of SIS, 900. Mr..
Paulson went there a year ago
and at once became interested in
the new mining camp at that
place and this is the result. He
still owns an interest in AZ other
claims in this same camp and is
likely to come out of it quite well
healed.
"Oliver," as every one calls him,
is a generous hearted young man
as is illustrated by the fact that
he gave his parents, who reside in
Orrick, Mo-, the sum of $1,000
and another $1,000 to his brother
Will who also resides in Ely.
divers friends here will rejoice
at his mining prosperity.

SIERRA MADRE
FOREST RESERVE
Presidents Proclamation Great
ed ii on the 5th Of November,
l9O6-=-Embraces Large Area
and Covers the Entire Conti-
mental Divide.

BY the Presidents proclama
ton. issued November 5th, 1906
the Sierra Madre Forest Reserve
was created. This eserve EN-.
braces all of the timber land in
the entire Continental Divide in
Wyoming and it's creation has
been under consideration for more
than a year. 1t would have been
created over six months ago but
for the protest sent in by sheep
owners, who ranged large herds
of sheep on it. Its creation will
restrict them in grazing facilities
in the southern part of Carbon
county, but grazing permits will
have the effect to restore the over
fed condition which now prevails
oyer the entire area enclosed in
the reserve.
Supt. l.. G.. Davis, who has
charge of the Medicine Bow for
est reserve, will undoubtedly have
charge of this new e also,
though he was he has not been
definitely instructed in regard to
the matter. This will n%ecessitate
the employment of as many men
almost as he now has under his
charge on the Medicine Bow re-
serve.
The forest regulations as re-
CARDS the cutting of timber for
domestic purposes, as well as for
ties, lumber, etc, are being made
more and more liberal every year.
AS the people in their vicinity be
come accustomed to the regula-
tions, forest reserves become more
popular in the public estimation,
In consequence of the liberal reg
ulatlons which now exist 1T is
very rare to ever hear any CON-
plant.
The experience of the past year
has developed the fact that the
fees for grazing is too high and
there is certain to be a reduction,
especially for sheep, when the
time comes for the issuance of
permits in the year 1907. AS the
years roll around the matter of
grazing stock on the reserves will
have been adjusted in such a man.

policy to bear on this important
