IN THE GRAZING LAWS.

Satisfied With Pres
ent Statutes

to Forest Reserve
Policy
ARGUE RESOLUTION

DENVER, June 2o.-The first public
lands convention ever held came to an
end late this afternoon with the adop-
ton of a series of resolutions which
were not so radical as had been ex-
pected. A letter received from Presi-
dent Roosevelt was a feature OF the
days session. The resolution over
which there was the most dispute read:
We oppose any change in the existing laws
and customs to grazing livestock upon tue
public domain outside of forest reserves
The resolutions say that experience
has demonstrated the wisdom or the
policy of treating the lands of the. ma
ton as a public trust, to be disposed
of in all cases and wherever possible TO
actual settlers The people of the
west are unalterably opposed to any
change in this wholesome. and nene-
fetal policy. Forest reserves should
be created only where they do not In
fringe this policy. In all cases the
rights of the states and the people of
the states to the free and unfan1pered
use of all waters within forest reserva-
tions should not only be permitted but
encouraged, and no charge. should be
imposed thereon. ,ts
The necessity of forest reservations
was recognized by the convention
and reasonable regulations by the gov
luton. however. fayors the prompt
elimination from forest reservations of
all lands not timbered or. suitable for
reforestation. or, reasonably. necessary
to conserve the flow OF streams used

appropriately with respect to school

equivalent for the purpose for which
they were originally intended.
It was demanded finally that in
states wherein forest reserves are situ-
ated and not desired, and are exces-
sive, the reservation should be re-

have thought of you many times
since your short visit with us but
am such a busy person that ]
haven't found time to write. It has
been some time since l have seen
st. Paul and the dear people. ***
My summer was most delight
full one, spent in girls camp. My
friend Miss Ramage and myself
were members of camp council
in-charge of forty girls. The other
counselors were charming, all
young women or college girls with
MIR. and Mrs. Gulick the heads of
the camp and Mr.. Brown the swim
ing master.
The nucleus of Camp Aloha
was the red cottage half way up the
hill with row of tents in the rear
and another row on the lake shore.
In the house were the great dining
room where we had our meals at
long, bare painted tables, sitting on
long, bare painted benches, and the
cosy living room where we had
on ayers every morning and where
we spent rainy days or cool even
ings about the blazing CRATE 6re.
I slept in one of the lake shore
tents. The front and back curtains
and the side flaps were rolled up so
that Ye were practically out doors.
Indeed on many clear nights I
moved my little cot right out under
the stars. We were on the shore
OF a beautiful little mountain lake
completely surrounded by noun
tains. In the mornings 1 used to
wake early and look out across the
lake watching the mists on the OPP
posite shore.
I learned to SWIM fairly well and
became quite an expert IN handling
a canoe. We spent our days walk
ing, padding, tramping, playing
tennis and basket ball.
The great expedition of the sum-
mer was the trip to Mt. Mousi-
lauke, we made the ascent one day,
spent the night in the Tip top house,
and came down a very difficult
trail the following day. This trail
was so steep that one felt exactly as
