THE STATE PARK QUESTION.
Certain Questions Answered and Certain
Explanations Made. How the Mat.
ter Could be Handled.


question of the state condemning
the land along the trout streams
and converting such land into
state parks, we have received
many letters from people all over
the state asking questions, max
ing suggestions and few criti-
cising the plan. These latter are
as rule persons who at present
enjoy a monopoly OF some splen-
did stream and desire to use it as
revenue producer while the
state keeps up the stock in trade,
viz: Young trout. These latter we
dispose of in a few words.
Theirs is selfish desire to use
something that nature has pro-
vided and that the state must
protect, for their personal advant
age. Their holdings are no more
sacred than those Of the humblest
home owner who has the mis-
fortune to reside in the proposed
right of way of railroad. If so
situated they are compelled to
sell at an appraised valuation.
Their property is not coniscated
as some of these letters seem to
indicate they think is the case.
They are simply bought out at a
fair price legally established. The
amount OF the kick raised by the
adjacent property owner is not an
important consideration, because
he is paid in every instance, un-
der the proposed plan, and no
citizen can rightfully object to the
state acquiring his property if the
public needs it and the common
wealth pays the bill.
One c. J. Huftalen, of Gunni-
son county, residing on the Ce-
bolla, one of the best trout streams
in the state, has the following to
say on the plan, and as it offers
a new thought we reprint it en-
tire:
1t this proposition of c. T. Ra-
waits is carried out and the state
condemns and buys 100 feet on
each side of the streams for fish
ermen, some of we ranchmen will
have to 60 out of business. | have
a ranch running three quarters of
mile along the upper Cebolla
above Cathedral. The bottom is
only about 400 feet wide most
of the way. Such a law would
simply be equivalent to confiscat.
ing my ranch.
We are somewhat acquainted
with the land in question and
doubt if the state would have
reason to acquire it in years, per.
haps never. Certainly not till
the Cebolla hot springs opened
to the use of the public. and
when the occasion does arise it is
probable that very much less
space than 100 feet on each side
would be found amply sufficient.
There should be some flexlbility
The newspaper., 1906-05-18

to the law and in our opinion it
would be perfectly safe to leave
in the hands of the game depart
ment the decision as to how wide
strip should be set aisle on
each side of stream, and for
what distance. Any arbitrary rule
would meet with instances when
both the interests of the state and
individual holders would be in
jured, and that unnecessarily.
1t should be remembered that
the proposal is made only to es-
tablish way by which the trout
fishing can not be taken away
from the public. 1t is more than
probable that with its adoption
half the necessity of putting its
provisions into effect would be
done away with. Very many of
the farmers who at present avail
themselves of the late supreme
court decision, and post signs
denying to the public even the
right to walk down the bed of a
stream and fish, an act that coul d
not damage them a cents worth,
will tear down the signs and offer
no further opposition when they
cannot monopolize the sport.
Some of the private resort clubs
that have acquired vast stretches
of the finest trout water IN the
world, will hasten to announce to
the public that their preserves
are open to all comers to take
trout according to law.
The proposed enactment is de-
signed to prevent the monopoli
cation of natural blessing that
depends on the state for its per-
petuation.
We remember very distinctly
when the present license law for
game and fishing preserves was
passed, the argument was made
that it was not the intent to shut
the general public out of these
resorts. That statement was either
deliberate lie or was speedily
repented of and changed as soon
as their rights under the law was
established. They will come
back to their original position
when the state can at any mo-
ment initiate condemnation pro-
ceedings and open the land and
water to the public.
1t is with considerable satisfac-
tion that we observe the COM
ments in the state press practically
unanimous in favor of the plan.
The newspaper men realize that
in the tourist trade is one of Col
orados greatest resources, and
they do not want to see that re-
source destroyed in the interest
of any English-apeing game pre-
serve idea. Again the newspaper
man is ESSENTIALLY one who builds
for a great future and it is patent
and clear that in this way we may
make Colorado unique in the
galaxy of those states that cater
to the tourist and sightseer.
We hope in the near future to

OIL TRUST BOUGHT UP MINISTER'S.
Standard Company Bribed Parsons of
All Creeds TO Preach Use Of Pro-
ducts to Parishioners.

CHICAGO, May IL" HoieSdic
bribery of ministers of all creeds
by agents of the Standard Oil
company was the sensational rev.
elation made today before the
interstate commerce commission.
Letters and other documentary
evidence that showed how the
Ohio ministery had not only ac-
cepted, but in several instances
had solicited, insignificant bribes,
were presented, to the amazement
OF scores of auditors.
The method OF securing these
ministerial agents was to give them
free oil for their churches and
their personal use.
In return the preachers advo-
cate among their parishionerS the
use of only Standard Oil to the
exclusion of competitive oils.
Also, according to the letters
shown, many of them gave test
monials" to statesmen OF the Stand
ard Oil trusts. These "testimo-
mails" said that it would be advis-
able for the church attendants to
listen to the persuasions of the
salesman and then buy only the
Rockefeller product.
This evidence of widespread
purchase of ministers came
through an Ohio witness. 1t
struck at representatives of every
faith. Letters signed by the min
istry were in the possession of
Attorney +. S. Monnett, who
gathered them as remarkable
coup upon the oil trust represen-
tative.
The Standard Oil company
learned from the first witness of
the day how its own methods OF
intrigue may be turned against it
as a weapon OF revenge.
haywood Maxon OF Decatur,
for twenty years a manager OF the
Rockefeller octopus, admitted
that since he had LETT the oil COM
pany he had secured 1.30O letters
from the correspondence files of
the Standard Oil company of
Kentucky,
How did you get this property
that does not belong to your
asked c. c La Forge for the
Standard Oil company.
IL got them in the same way
that for years | got information
for the Standard Oil compay,"
smiled Maxon. II learned the
method from them"
A ten years vow OF revenge
against the Standard Oil trust is
declared by the magnates' attor-
news to have been taken by Max
son when he was removed from
the employment of the trust.

years, did you notf"
Yes"
And since then you have been
in every investigation from New
Jersey to Missouri and back to
Garfield, have you not?"
Yes"
And you are looking for
another chance to testify, aren't
you?"
Not looking for it, but l an
tlcipate | will be called upon" he
said, as he and the commissioners
and the prosecutors laughed.
A contest over the rights of the
interstate commerce commission
TO lay bare the monopolistic
scheming of the giant corpora
ton is now assured as defensive
move.
When the inquiry into the oil
trust was resumed today in the
federal building Attorney John S.
Miller and his associate represent
atives for the Standard Oil COM
pany were chahng under the de-
cision of the commissioners that
they had jurisdiction through
congressional resolutions to go
fully into the history of the oil
business in all of its phases.
The determination to test in
the United States supreme court
the Interpretation of the resolu-
ton of congress was fastened by
the revelation that prosecution is
imminent for prominent oil trust
and railroad officials who have
been found in conspiracy to vio-
late the antitrust laws and nu-
merous other legal provisions
against restraint of trade.
Members of the examining COM
mission admit that they have
stringent orders from Washington
that they are not to permit GER
tain railroad and Standard Oil men
to 60 upon the witness stand.
This will it is thought, weaken
the strength of the case to be
made in Chicago, but it means,
the attorneys say, that against
these men the government has
secured other evidence that it is
to use in the court unless the
magnates find some other means
of obtaining an Immunity bath"

of this kind are plentiful in the work of

is unique in the annals of medicine.
