Recently, Harry A. Bliler of this
city wrote to the head office of the
forest service, at Washington, relative
to the withdrawal of many acres OF
timber lands in Cook. Lake and st.
Louis counties, much of which had
been filed on for stone and timber
claims, and which is now wanted by
the Forest Service for a national
forest reserve.
Mr.. Bliler desired to know whether
the withdrawn lands were still sub.
iect to stone and timber filings, and
whether filings already made, prior
to the withdrawal, would hold good.
In letter to Mr.. Bliler, the act.
ing chief of the forest service says:
United States Department of
Agriculture. Forest Service.
Washing ton, July I, 1908.
''Mr. Harry A. Bliler, Bemidji, MINI.
Dear Sir:-The inquiry on claims
in the proposed National Forest in
northern Minnesota in your letter of
Tune IA, to Mr.. II. A. Smith has
been referred to this office for atten-
ton.
AT various times there have been
temporary Withdrawals of land in
Cook, Lake and St. Louis counties,
Minnesota. These Withdrawals are
as follows:
First withdrawal. June 3O1902. 4so.44o acres
Second withdrawal, Aug. 18. 1905. 131.64O acres
Third withdrawal. Apr. p. 1908. 396.559 acres
Total at present 1.01s.63s acres
These Withdrawals were made
pending an examination to deter
mine the suitability of the. land for
National purposes. I regret that
there has been considerable delay in
examining these lands, but the chief
Inspector at Denver, Co.., informs
me that an officer of the Forest
Service will report in detail upon
the lands in question some time
next fall. The lands were with
drawn subject to all prior valid
adverse claims, hence, all valid
claims initiated proir to the dates of
withdrawal will proceed to patent as
in the ordinary case, but, of course,
no claims can be established on this
land subsequent to the dates of with
drawal.
