whether members or not, most of those
present were members.
The afternoon was wholly given over
to short speeches and expressions OF
opinion regarding the disposition of the
public range Mr.. Chedsey, in an ex-
cellent talk, stated the purpose of the
meeting, and expressed his opinion re-
yarding what he considered the best dis
position of the public range. He was
followed by short talks from Andrew
Norrell, John I. Shippey and c. b. Dav-
is, with general discussion by the mem
bers present.
While the opinions differed somewhat
on the details, they were practically
unanimous as to the manners in which
the land should be disposed of to the
best advantage of stock growers and
ranchmen of this section. Following is
the general plan recommended by the
majority of those present. should it be
possible in future to secure its adoption
by the government:
That all public grazing land be placed
under the control of board composed
of local men to act conformity with the
forest reserve officials.
That the land shall be divided among
the ranchmen on the basis of amount OF
productive land actually owned by each.
This would in few years be giving the
board the power to limit the number OF
cattle allowed to Craze in the public do
main, relieve the present overcrowded
condition of the range and preserve the
feed indefinitely.
There was some difference of opinion
a. to whether the land should be divided

MEAN BUSINESS.
Efforts to Inject Politics Into
Public Lands Convention
VIII Meet Failure.

An effort is being made on the part of
some well meaning but misinformed
friends of the administration to inject
politics into the convention on public
lands to be held in Denver June 18th,
10Th and Goth. The plan is to pack the
convention with politicians and secure
An Endorsement of the administration
and all of its acts, regardless OF what
the arguments may show. The promo
ters of the convention have been largely
friends of the administration, and de-
termined effort has been made to keep
political questions out of the discussion
The object of the convention is sim
ply to discuss the relation of the state to
the public lands and to arrive at def
nate policy, if possible, where the West
can stand. President Roosevelt himself
realizes the importance of this conven-
and will recognize it by sending some Of
his chief advisers to be present and take
part in the discussions.
The governors of the western states
and territories will send prominent citi-
zens to represent the interests of the
states and it has been the plan to dis
ouss the matter from the standpoint of
state interest. Any attempt to turn the
meeting into political gathering will
be disastrous to those who attempt it.
The people of the West put state pros
perity before any political party or fac
ton and the convention will be largely
made up of business men who will be
here for business purposes. They will
naturally resent any effort to put po-
litical meaning in the convention and
will insist that the conference must be
absolutely free and open and the conven
ton unbiased.
While there are many people in the
West who disagree with the President
in his land policy, they admit that there
is argument on his side, looking at the
matter from q national standpoint The
question, however, is what policy will
be the best for the prosperity of the
West. The convention will be large
one and its proceedings will be watched
with much interest by the people. Re

ed to Craze in any portion of the district,
the number Of stock allowed each man
being based upon the number of produc.
tive acres owned by him.
The convention was unanimous in op-
bosing leasing system. and stated en-
phatically the favor of the government
rather than the state ownership Of pub
lie lands. the experience Of most of them
with the state in leasing lands being
anything but satisfactory.
Mr.. Shippey s talk dealt with the for
est reserve question giving brief his
tory of the reserve from the start down
to the present time. He claimed
that as the reserves We're not only q
local but general necessity the govern
ment had no right to tax the localities
in which the reserves are located for the
maintenance of these reserves as the
sections along the Missippi river which
receive benefit from the River and Har-
Der Appropriation do not pay local tax
to defray the expences of the work done
there. That as we pay our share of the
taxes to maintain this necessary work
or in fact any other public enterprise.
they should pay their share in maintain
ing the forest service of the west.
C. E. Davis in speaking of the DISPOSE
ton of the public lands rather than have
system of control by the government
which would impose grazing tax. the
stookmen would better keep the present
system, unsatisfactory as it is. Howev-
er, as the public land is to be brought
under the control of the government or
state shortly, there is no choice in the
matter, and the energies of all who are
interested should be directed to the best
possible disposition of the land.
There seemed to be misapprehension
on the part of several present as to the
charge for timber on the reserve for pri-
vate use which were set at rest by For
est Ranger Hurd who stated that an in
definate amount of timber may be secur
ed for private use, providing that such
timber was not meant for spculatian,
and that such timber was free of charge
AS the discussion of the public land
took up the entire afternoon. it Was de-
cided to meet again after supper for the
purpose of electing five delegates to at
tend the Public Land convention in Den
yer to be held June 17-1S-19 and to pass
resolutions by which the delegates were
to be governed.
The following delegates were chosen
Hubert Chedsey. w. o. Mosman, Andy
Norell, Andrew Peterson and John. T..
Shippey. After considerable discussion
it was decided that the delegates go I'M
instructed, so no resolutions were passed
and the convention adjourned for the
evening.
Sunday morning at 10 o'clock the Stock
Association was convened by the pfesi'
dent for short special meeting. The
object of the meeting was disclosed by
James Mari putting the following ques
tions to the president, Mr.. Chedsey

JOHNSON NOT TREATING
WASHINGTON RIGHT

Myron Townsend of the St. Louis Star
Chronicle is the latest to discuss the Stahl
case. He says:
Has the president of major league a
right to force a club to dispose of player?
This Is the question which hasAar1sen In
the case of Jake Stahl.
The Washington papers are charging Ban
Johnson with double crossing the Sena-
tors because they allege he is endeavoring
to take Stahl away without making ade-
quate return.
AS the Chicago Inter-Ocean comments:
IF a dissatisfied player, who is valu-
able playing asset, can compel his employ
ers to trade. sell or give Finn away at a
loss to themselves. what will become of the
basic principles which now guide profess
sional base ball and make it the business
like sport that it is? The Washingtonians
cannot make trade for Stahl suitable to
themselves, or with reasonable coMpensa-
ton. Are they. then. obliged to turn the
player loose because he will not play with
them?"
If the president of a league is permitted
to butt in and break up a club, what
protection have club owners got?

JOHNSON HOLDING
UP THE STAHL CASE

President Noyes Of the Washington club
received the following letter yesterday from
President Hermann of the national COM
mission In reply to his missiye of a few
days ago urging speedy settlement Of the
Stahl case:
Replying to yours of April 10 would
state that have again written both Of my
colleagues on the commission, requesting
that prompt action be taken in the Stahl
case"
Mr.. Noyes also received the following let
ter from President Pulliam Of the National
League. who is a member of the national
commission:
Yours of the 10th instant with reference
to the disposal of the Stahl case at hand.
My colleagues are more familiar with this
case than I an, as 1 was not present at
the oral hearing in Cincinnati, and 1 have
been waiting to get their opinion in the
disposition of this case before passing
judgment myself.
Il presume that you have communicated
with Messrs. Hermann and Johnson and.
as you undoubtedly, and Mr.. Stahl also
under the circumstances, are entitled to an
immediate decision, no doubt one will be
rendered at once"
From the tone of these letters it can be
easily seen that President Johnson alone Is
holding I'D the case What excuse Presi-
dent Ban has to put forward for his stand
in the matter Is difficult to see and the
quicker he unravels the muddle the better
1t Will be for his reputation for fairness
and shrewdness. If he is DESTROYS of Mr.
Stahl getting away from Washington the
quickest way for him to bring it about Is
for him to turn the player over to the
local club. and the ex-manager will be dis
posed of at the earliest possible moment.
Washington wants no player who Is dis
gruntled and carries a fancied grievance
in his think tank

FOR MISS SUTTON

day In tournament play on the indoor lawn

Miss Sutton began the service and using
spin which bothered her opponents. The
California girl found her strongest adver-
sary in Miss Margaret Behr, who displayed
marked skill from her side of the net Miss
Behr proved remarkably aggressive in the
rallies. and after she had brilliantly aced
Mrs. Pruyn several times by volleying the
ball straight under her forehand, Miss
Sutton found 1t necessary to cut into the
play and help her partner out when she
was hard pressed at the net.
During the opening set Miss Behrs dash
ing work and her changes from the base
line to the net materially assisted her side
In the scoring. She came near to carrying

tied volleying she scored the aces when

contest in a one-sided game, while Eastern,
as~usual was on the short end, the score

innings. and held the Eastern boys safe, as
they could not connect with his delivery,
and he famed six batters. During
the four innings Gray performed five hits

all of their runs. Dodd, who was on the
slab for the losers for six innings. was
hammered all over the Hot, fourteen hits
being chalked up against him. Whitney,
who was pulled off the initial sack, did the
box stunt for the rest of the game He
pitched much better ball than did the
Eastern captain.

the star. as of the six times he went to the
bat he scored five runs. although he secured
only one hit.
