under the law it will make friends of the settler and
prospector and miner. The stockmen, miners, pros
pectors and settlers in individual cases, no doubt
have just cause to complain against the administra-
ton of the forest On the whole however,
all of them heartily approve of the forest reserve
policy and so do the people of the western country
Those who complain most loudly against forest re-
serves are the who are deprived of the oppor-
tunity of taking UP timber lands for speculation and
in many instances, fraudulently The proposed &C
ton of Secretary Garfield will dispose of this class of
individuals; and correction of the abuses of the
administration of the forest reserves by the forestry
department, will do away with most of the objections
to forest reserves.

Additional Carey Act Lands.

Washington dispatches bring the information that
the bill granting two million acres of land to the
state of Idaho additional grant under the Carey
act passed by the senate has been set aside in the
house and another bill recommended providing that
all public lands in the western country shall be
open to entry under the provisions of the Carey act
In the beginning Senator Hepburn introduced bill
in the senate granting one million additional to
Idaho. This just and fair and necessary
Congress in 1894 passed the Carey act, under the
provisions of which, each arid and semi-arid state
and territory granted million of land
provided the state territory would reclaim it
der certain conditions set forth in the act and which
the legislatures of the respective subdivisions must
accept
Idaho quickly took advantage of this legislation
and by wise state legislation and the enterprise of its
citizens, and because of its natural advantages in
water and land, actually took up and reclaimed is
reclaming its million acres. No other of the states
or territories did this None of them showed the
enterprise the courage the intelligence of Idaho
in taking advantage of this most bene6cent legisla
ton. Some of the states and territories have not
reclaimed of land under the provisions of
this act. Wyoming has done more than any other
of the states but still there three four hundred
thousand acres of land yet remaining to Wyoming
under the original act to be reclaimed and Wyoming
not nearly so favored as Idaho for water, land
which can be utilized.
Senator Hepburn yielded to opportunities, and un-
wisely in our judgment, amended his own bill in the
senate by increasing the million to two million
acres The senate passed his BILL however, for the
two million. There was no existing reason why any
otter western state sould ask for this additional
grant, and in the senate of them did; but al
lowed Senator Heyburn's to go through that
body without being amended. When the bill reached
the house, Congressman Mondell of Wyoming
amended the bill by adding Wyoming, giving it also
two million acres.
There is no necessity at this time for than
million acres for Idaho; there is necessity for
that There is necessity for another million at this
time for Wyoming. When the bill was amended .
giving Idaho and Wyoming each two million acres
of land, opposition was created. Congressman
Recder of Kansas, most valuable member and a
great friend of irrigation but very panstaking and
particular in regard to his official duties, called on
The departments for detailed information to what

Stone and Timber Act.

The Secretary of the Interior has indicated that
unless congress repeals the stone and timber act he
will construe that legislation to do away with
many of the abuses which have grown up under its
Interpretation and administration The time arrived
long since when this act should have been repealed
and some suitable legislation for the acquiring of
both stone and timber substituted for it. Almost
every western representative whose constituencies
the interested have favored changes in this
law. A few interested parties; large corporations
the hand, who desired to acquire immense tracts
of timber; and some individuals who by evading
violating the law could make profit by taking up
claim and selling it to corporation, have opposed
any change in the law. The law opens wide the door
for fraudulent practices, and the cupdity of ndivd
uals has lead them in many instances in Our western
country to sacrifice their good and their repu-
taton and their standing in the community, by taking
advantage of the law either to perpetrate fraud,
induce others to do in the acquiring of the timber
lands. Many who stood high in their communi-
ties have been indicted by grand juries and in
instances convicted and sentenced to prison. In al
most all instances they blame the laty of the law in
its wording, and assert that they have done those
things only which were recognized as being lawful,
because they following the common practice.
Many names have been tarnished many regulations
destroyed 1t would that legislation could
be enacted which would minimize the possibility of
fraud
Secretary Garfield says that the stone and timber
act does arbitrarily fix the price of timber land
$3.50 per acre, but that $3.50 per is the min
irum price at which timber land shall be Sold He
contends that the secretary of the INTERIOR under the
stone and timber act, has authority to demand a
higher price, where timber land is worth more than
that amount 1t is announced as his intention, if
the present congress does not pass suitable legislation
that hereafter he will have the timber land appraised
and require entrynlen to pay the appraised value of
all land taken under this act 1t is the intention
we understand it. that when entryman indicates a
desire to take up any certain piece of timber land,
that such land will be cruised and appraised, and a
fixed appraised value shall be put such timber
land. We think this contemplated action of the
Secretary of the Interior is wise and merciful
1t is too much to hope that this change will do
away with all fraud. No doubt purchasers will in
some instances make arrangements with the govern
nent agents who appraise the timber land, and, by
defraud the government but such instances
will be rare and will reflect the moral character
Of the individuals to the transactions only.
Much timber land in our western country is in
forest reserves and in consequence under safe and
wholesome regulation.

YOU! DYSPEPTICS
 READ
What an Eminent Medical Man Says Dyspepsia Really ls.. Then
 Gain Hope.

This affection called Dyspepsia, is the greatest torment of civilized life, and is to be considered rather as an unnatural functional difficulty than as a structural disease"
 The same authority has classified dyspepsia thus: The first form due to relations with other organs which are in a morbid and unhealthy state. which is characterized as a reflex action. Of such a type is the nausea and vomiting caused by irritation of brain. lungs. liver or uterus.
 The second form is caused by scanty supply of gastric juice, made evident by slOWness of digestion. long retention of food ir the stom- ach, distress for a long time after meals, accompanied by weighty and uneasy feelings at pit of stomach, de- composition of food in ailnentary ca nal causing fetid and foul gases and appearance of undigested food in the evacuations from bowels
 The third and last form of dyspep- sia, according to this renowned medi- cal light, is that which accompanies some abnormal quality of the gastric juice, combined with a partial paraly- sis of the stomach's muscles so that this organ cannot sufficiently mix the food with the digestive fluids.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will remedy each condition of a stomach afflicted with dyspepsia as above de- scrioed.
 These tablets contain digestive agents which act with or without the aid of the stomach. One grain of an ingredient used in the tablets will digest 5000 grains of food, and if necessary will do it in a glass vial so that the digestion can be seen by the human eye.
 They help the stomach, enrich the blood, revitalize the gastric juices, give strength to the alimentary nerves and glands. They are recom- mended by every druggist and 10000 physicians who use and prescribe them.
