Secretary of interior Hitchcock
Declares He Will Continue
to Prosecute
IN CASES OF LAND FRAUD
Though His Efforts Are and Have Been
Opposed by Strongest In
fluences.

Washington, D. c., Dec 11-Ethan
Allen Hitchcock, secretary of the in
terror, in his annual report refers to
the prosecution of all persons conspir-
ing TO defraud the government of pub
lie lands, asserting that the efforts of
the department will be continued. He
says the enforcement of the law TO pro
tect the public domain has been the
cardinal principle of his administra-
ton.
TT is to be regretted" states the
secretary, chat the efforts made TO re-
lease it from the grip OF its despoiIers
have been met by every embarrass-
ment that human ingenuity could de-
wise; powerful influences have been
concerned and have not hesitated TO
aggressively exert every agency that
could be commanded to weaken the
hand of the law; even local land Of
flee officials have been subservient to
such influences, and the punishment
imposed by the courts has. in many
cases, been so conspicuously made
quate as to encourage rather than de-
ter violations of the law.
Proceeded without Prejudice.
''In the discharge of my duty under
the law l have proceeded without the
slightest prejudice for or against any
person or persons interested Appar-
emily they are all on the same footing:
in my judgment, however, the higher
the offender the greater the crime
against society and law because of
the force and influence of the higher
example. 1t is not possible for per-
sons and corporations of great inhu-
ence and power to maintain Enclosures
of the public lands in open disregard
of a criminal statute, without thereby
encouraging others TO do likewise. APP
proXimately 100000 acres of the pub

propriated TO the exclusive use of pri-
yate interests for private gain

are to assume office and when they are
to vacate the places they now hold in
