luton and otherwise, vigorous
" kicks at the grazing fees to be paid

Defends His Position

Chief Foieste Pinchot made an
address to the Washington Society of
Engineers last evening. in which he
took occasion to reply to some Of the
attacks made upon him and his Lolicy
recently in the senate. He said that
the forest service does not want to
take one acre of land for forest re-
serves that has the possibility Of a
home on it, and that the chief end of
the service was to create homes. The
forest service, he said, seeks to pre-
vent the glasping of great stretches of
IF timber land under the guise of
agricultural development. Mr.. Pin.
chot SAID that the government was the
owner of 1870. 600, 600 acres of timber
lands, even though four-6fths of the
timber lands of the country are
owned by private individuals.

Prominent StOCkmdR diveS Views
on Forest Reserves

John Edge. one of the cattlemen of
Burns, was Glenwood visitor Tues
day and Wednesday. He had been
down to Rife where he is feeding a
bunch of cattle and stopped over in
Glenwood to make application to
Harry French for grazing PERM it
for 1907.
Mr.. Edge is treasurer of the Grand
and Eagle River Stockgrowers' asso'
citation with headquarters at Mccoy
and when asked what his association
had done in the way of resisting the
government efforts to collect graz
ing fee on the forest reserves Mr. Edge
said:
"Our association has done nothing
vet and 1 don't think it will take any
action in the matter. L think the
majority of the fellows over there feel
about as do. Our experience on the
reserves has been very satisfactory
and we have been very we'll treated.
OF course we would be glad If Uncle
Sam would give us that 25 cents
that is, waive the grazing fee entirely

And These Shall Endure

David c. Beaman of Denver, in his
brief for the State of Colorado in the
suit between that state and Kansas
over the use of the waters of the
Arkansas river, pays a glowing trib-
ute to the benefcence of irrigation,
and ends with the following majestic
passage, quoted from some unknown
author:
Although the tomb of Moses is
unknown the traveller of today slakes
his thirst at the well of Jacob. The
gorgeous palaces of the wisest and
wealthiest of monarchs, with theil
cedar and gold and ivory, and even
the great temple of Jerusalem. hal
lowed by the visible glory of the
Deity himself are gone; but Solo
mon 5 reservoirs are as perfect as ever.
OF the magnificent and costly arch
itecture of the Holy City, not one
stone is left upon another, but the
pool of Bethesda commands the pill
g,im $ reverence at the present day
The columns of Persepolis are molder
ing into dust, but its cistern and
aqueduct remain to challenge our
admiration. The golden house of
Nero is a mass of ruins, but the Aqua
Claudia still pours into the city of
Rome its limpid stresm. The Tenn
pie of the Sun, at Tadmor in the wild
erness, has fallen, hut its fountain
sparkles in the rays of the morning
as when thousands of worshippers
thronged the lofty Colonnades. And
if any work of this generation shall
rise over the 1eep ocean of time, we
may well believe that it will be
neither palace nor a temple, but
some vast aqueduct or reservoir; and
if any name shall hereafter fash
brightest through the mist of antiq
uity, it will probably be that of the
man who in his day sought the hap
piness of his fellowmen, and linked
his memory to some such work of ma
tional utility or benevolence

ANSWERS THE
GREAT LAST CALL
SiIdS W. Mott, Garfield County piO-
neer, Dies Suddenly at His
Ranch Home Near City

AT l :45 Wednesday morning after an
illness of but about four days, Silas
w. Mott, one of the pi oneers of West
ern Colorado, laid down the burdens
of life and answered the summons of
the great Reaper.
Last Sunday Mr.. Mott complained
Of feeling i'll but by Monday morning
he had sufficiently recovered that he
drove his dairy wagon to town, max
ing the rounds of the milk route as
usual. Tuesday he was not able to
leave his Mitchell creek ranch but
was able to do little outdoor work
and in the afternoon did some work
on his books.
Toward evening he came near set
ting fire to his house and it was for
tunate that some of the help was pres
ent to extinguish the flames else the
end would have been even saddeI than
at present In moving about the room
it is thought Mr.. Mott accidentally
ignited a match thus setting fire to a
mass of newspapers on his table.
Others rushed in and moved Mr.. Mott
out of the room and tnen put out the
flames When they looked fol the old
man he had fallen to the ground and
was already delirious. He never fully
recovered consciousness and sank rap
idly from that time on.
Mr.. Mott was born in Watertown,
New York, over "A years ago. He
came to Colorado in 1858 and has re,
sided in the state ever since. 4e was
an expert horseman and a great lover
as we'll az splendid judge of a good
horse. He was said in the early days
to have been the most expert pole
team driver in the state. He drove
the first six horse stage into Leadville,
coming across Argentine pass from
Georgetown making the distance of
20 miles between daylight and dark
over rough roads and scaling two
mountain passes.
Mr.. Mott has resided in Garfield
county about twenty years, having
improved lovely rarch property three
miles below Glenwood and there are
few of the old timers who have not
for many years known 5. w. Mott,
For many years he was the trusted
bookkeeper for a. r. kamm and in
this position addeG to his extensive
acquaintance.
Besides wife in Denver Mr. Mott
leaves two sons. "a brother, G. C.
(Major) Mott who for many years has
lived with him on the ranch, another
brother, Theodore, of Denver, and two
brothers at Waterfowl, New York.
The funeral was held Friday after
noon from the Presbyterian church,
the service being conducted by the
pastor, Rev Bernard L. Rice. Many
old friends came in from different
portions of the county to show their
respect for the pioneer whom they had
known so well.

Legislation in Coal Lands

An effort will be made by the pub
lie lands committee of the house to
get through congress during the few
remaining days of this session a
measure agreed on by that committee
providing for modified form of
leasing of the coal lands of the United
States, and more strict supervision
over the general subject than has pre-.
vailed heretofore. The president
talked over his bill today with Repre-
sentative Lacy. the chairman of the
house public lands committee, and
expressed the opinion that it should
be pushed. 1t does not contain all
the legislation on this subject that
the president desires, but he thinks it
is step in the right direction, and is
much better than no legislation at
all. In his annual message the pres
dent took the position that it was not
wise that the nation should ALLEVIATE
its remaining coal lands. AT that
time he announced that he had tenn
porarily withdrawn from settlement
all the lands which the geological
survey has indicated as containing
coal or probably containing coal. He
favored the government ownership of
coal lands remaining in the United
States. to be worked by private indi.
viduals under royalty system.

TO Be TRIED ON ITS MERITS
Judge Morse 0verrules Defendants
Demurrer in Case of Junghandel
and Game VS.. Hagenbarth.

The action for 100000 brought by
Max Junghandel and Joseph e. Caine
against F. J. Hagenbarth will be tried
on its merits in the district court. This
was decided yesterday when Judge
Lewis Overruled the demurrer of the
defendant to the amended complaint.
The case has attracted considerable
attention, because of the amount in
volved and the prominence of the par
ties. The complaint alleges that Game
and Junghandel sold to Hagenbarth
last February an option on the prop
erty of the Ludwig Copper Mining
company's property at Yerington, New,
for 100000, one-quarter of the amount
to be paid bi-monthly. AS yet there
have been no payments. Besides the
option price, Hagenbarth was supposed
to pay the copper company $1,000, 900
for its property, which was covered by
the original option secured by the
plaintiffs and sold to defendant.
The demurrer entered two weeks ago
to the original complaint on the ground
that it was ambiguous was sustained
by Judge Lewis who however, gave
the plaintiffs permission to file an
amended complaint. This they did, and
it was demurred to on the same ground,
ly stated a cause of action.
c. S. Price represented Game and
Junghandel, while the interests of Ha-
genbarth were looked after by Judge
w. H. Dickson.
