meeting had already developed; with

Uru city. The various controversies
with the administration of tbs forest
and other matters in which
certain Colorad people were involved
/ believe has done a little to strength
en- the feeling in favor of Spokane.
II is q mistake, however, to imagine
that the Colorado delegation as a
whole or the people of our state as
a whole are not in fun sympathy with
the work Of the forest and reclama-
ton services.
Il think Pueblo lost the convention
for next year through n fortuitous
combination of circumstances. 1
think Pueblo has a good chance to
going TO start a campaign with that
end in view right away. Anyhow.
