Gray 10 "kiddins' or he hiss bsea
grossly deceived. We leave it TO

permit for term of years is not in
effect a lease would he indeed non

He insists that he did not support
the forest reserves We have only
the Denver papers for it Denver
papers sometimes draw the long bow
you know but by the spirited re-

legislate, of foisting on us UnAmeri-

tie barons and lumber trust under
guise Of mau6lin sentiment, of
placing needless and uni ust tax
upon the sparsely settled west, worst
of all of suspending the benifcient
