THE BURKETT BILL.

The Burkett bill is the administra-
ton measure and it is not the kind of
a measure that the people of the west
a as n whole support. 1t follows
In the forest reserves and it does not
seem possible that such a policy could
work to advantage on the open range.
Even in the mountainous reserves,
where stock can only be grazed dur
ing a portion of the year, the policy
works in an irksome, unsatisfactory
manner and is not considered stable
and lasting.
IL the arid states have a say in the
matter, and they will, leases should
give control to the lessees and there
should be no hampering or undue re
strictions on the part of h govern
ment. ~Self-interest would cause a les
see to improve his holdings and if hi
treats his trust properly during a pc
riod of years, he should be given a re
newal at the same rental, preference
always being given 10 the man who
has had the courage to make a home.
stead entry and establish a home for
himself and his family.
The coming meetings between west.
ern stockmen and the public lands
commission will doubtless do much to
ward untangling the snarled skein
but it is certain that the Burkett blll
can never receive the sanction of stock,
men in general. AS Mr.. Mondell says
a man would not care TO be compelled
to hunt up a supervisor every time
he wanted to turn a ~saddle-horse into
his pasture. Too much paternity and
too much supervision would be worse
than no title at all.
The Republican has great faith in
the ability of the men of the west to
solve this problem and it believes they
will bring order out of chaos in the
near future.

Mr., CIews' Letter.


A great deal is made of the admin
is~tration's attitude toward the rail
roads and all large corporations. AS a
matter of fact, Mr.. R~oosevelt's agrees
sive policy in these matters has had
less effect upon values than is suppos-
ed. The attack upon the Northern
Securities company; the move for
adjustment of railroads rebates; the
beef trust, and standard oil investiga.
lions, all had little or no effect upon
the market when naCural conditions
and speculative forces were arrayed
on the bull side. 1t so happens that
natural forces and speculative opera
tons for the last few weeks have been
arrayed on the bear side; consequent
ly. the declines have, in quarters antag-
onistic to the president been attribut
ed to the latter's aggressive attitude.
Done With Purpose.
This is done, no doubt, for the pur-
pose Of discrediting the president and
throwing upon him the onus of pres
ent stock market conditions, for which
he is, in fact, in no great degree re-
sponsible. Mr.. Roosevelt is probably
intent upon securing reforms in rail-
road and large corporate management,
and he is known to be distinctly in
favor of restraining monopolistic ten
denotes. 1t can be positively stated.
however, that he does not contemplate
any new legislation during this ses-
sion of congress and that his plans are
not as radical as represented.
Temporarily Disturbing.
OF course, 1t is probable that agita-
ton on these subjects of a political
character may be temporarily disturb
ing to stock market values, especially
when it interferes with the plans OF
some Of our great financial magnates.
In the end, however, Mr.. R%oosevelt's
attitude is likely to be beneficial to the
very corporations which are now ap-
tparently antagonistic to him. Neither
they nor their stockholders can suffer
except temporarily from the stand that
the president takes for sound manage.
ment and fair dealing with men.
Threatens Stability Of Republic.
His intention also of curbing the ex-
cesses of some organizations Is I'M
d%oubtedly desirable for the peoples
welfare and eventually will prove ben
%eficial. for the building up within a ma.
tion of a series OF powers, such as
those exercised by a few men control
ling u great corporations, threatens
the stability of the republic and breeds
socialism at an alarming pace. By
curbing new forces and bringing them
within the pale Of the law, the presi-
dent is averting disasters which would
sink into insignificance when compar.
ed with the temporary unpleasantness
of such readjustments as are now be-
ing effected.
Public Opinion Behind Him.
Mr.. Roosevelt has the power Of pub
lie opinion behind him, without which
he could effect nothing, and the antag-
onism of concentrated wealth would
be more likely to precipitate than avert
trouble in Wall street.

No 5Friends Left Here.

Carl Jackson, the lineman, who is
going to receive the Shriners' degree
at Cheyenne tomorrow, says not a
friend of his offers a word of pity and
he believes he has no friends left in

to him as a poor. miserable victim and
expresses. sympathy in his hour of
trouble. He is going to show 'em, he
says. that he has all the grit and en-
durance hat a Jackson should have.

Some New BrIdues.

According to asreport, the engineer
ing department of the Union Pacific
is presently to be engaged in the work
of constructing some thirty new steel
bridges on the Wyoming division OF
the road. says the Salt Lake Tribune
Most Of the new bridges will replace
old frame structures Two ct the
structures are unusually large. One
is 912 feet long. spanning the Platte
river near LaSalle, south OF Cheyenne
and the other Is a 675-foot bridge over
the Green River, near the town Of that
name.
In the construction Of the Green
River bridge there will be some inter.
esting engineering work. The present
bridge has four 15O-foot spans, while
the new bridge. a double-track steel
structure, will have nine 75-foot steel
Orders. This new bridge is to be con.
structed in precisely the same place as
the present structure without interior.
ing with traffic over the road. This
will be accomplished by constructing
a false trestle work under the present
bridge and gradually building up the
foundations Of the new structure. Then
one of the present spans will be re.
moved and the new span quickly in.
serted. So perfectly will these be
made to fit that this operation, the
tearing out Of one great bridge and the
putting in Of another will not require
over an hours time.

about s1,OOO,OOO was derived from the

from the sale Of securities.

locked horns.
Evans said he read Thaw's letters

know II this made any difference as
to the showing OF insanity. Evans
then plunged into a long explanation

Delmas, who enjoyed the prosecutors
