Decision sustains Grazing Rsgula-
lions.

The government has just won Its
sixth Important case concerning the
validity Of the regulations made by the
secretary of agriculture to control graz
4 ing in the national forests. In the
+ the United States court at Denver,
4 Colorado, j udge Robert o Lewis has
oyerruled the demurrer of Fred Light,
awealthy stockman of Pitkin county,
Colorado, which contended that the
grazing regulations in force on the
National Forests are unconstitutional.
The whole case reyolyed around the
contention raised by some Colorado
B stockmen that the government 10 no
more than a private land owner In the
matter OF state fence laws. A number
of states have fence laws which make it
impossible for private person to col.
lect fees or damages from owners of
stock which stray upon his land unless
the land is fenced. The national forests
are not fenced and on this the stockmen
based their refusal to pay grazing fees.
A friendly suit to test the regulations
of the secretary of agricultural prohibits
ing the drifting OF stock upon the for
est. AT the puDlic lands convention
hold in Denver last June the forest Of
fcers and representatives of the
Colorado Cattle and Horse Growers
association, of which Mr.. Light is a
member agree to friendly suit. The
case is practically the sans as the
famous Shannon case in Montana, in
which the grazing regulations were also
upheld.
The. decision of Judge Hunt..in this
Montana case was affirmed by the
United States circuit court of appeals
1t the ninth circuit sitting at San Fran
cisco on February 8, this year. The
decision stated without qualification
that the grazing regulations are reason
able and valid and that the state land
laws do not apply to the national for
8 ests and that therefore, the drifting OF
& stock upon the forests in collation. OF
the regulationis trespassing, notwith-
standing the state law.
The light decision simply affirmed
the same principle in another juris
diction. The attorneys for MT. Light
under the agreements made. before the
(, trial, are bound not to dispute the facts
but will probably appeal the legal ques-
ton for decision by the circuit court OF
appeals at 80, Louis. Eventually it will
be carried up to the supreme court
The other suits. attacking the graz
! ing regulations won by the government
are the following cases: the United
State versus Shannon, Montana; the
United States versus Bale, South Da-
kota, the United States versus Deguirre
Northern California; the United States
Domongo, Idaho; the United States
versus Dent, Arizona.

SAYS WEALTH Is DISTRIBUTED.

Chief Statistician Of Census Bureau
Writes on "The Assets Of the
United States"
The nations wealth is not in the
hands Of a few, according to L. G..
Powers, chief statistlcian Of the census
bureau at Washington.
Writing N 1.-THE Assets Of the United
States" In the September number of
the American Journal of Sociology, is
sued recently from the University of
Chicago press, Mr.. Powers has the fol-
lowing to say of the concentration OF
wealth In America:
IF we start with the value of farms
and other homes which are known to
be owned by men Of small possessions.
the savings bank deposits and other
known possessions of those Of moderate
means, and then add the lowest popular
estimates Of the possessions of our
%millionaires, we have an aggregate far
in excess Of the census appraisal of
national W. 18th, and the conclusion
under such circumstances Is irresistible
either that the census estimates are
ridiculously small or the popular esti-
mates Of the wealth of our m%illionaires
are greatly exaggerated.
1.-The writer does not find any evil
dence that would justify either the
statement that our national wealth is
grossly understated or that our million.
aires own SO large a share Of that wealth
as to leave the great majority without
property"

TAFT's NJuNcT1oNs.

L ask that every responsible
and fair-minded labor leader, ev-
cry responsible and fair-minded
member Of a labor organization,
read these (Taft's) injunctions
for himself. If he will do so, in
stead Of condemning them he will
heartily approve Of them and will
recognize this further astonish-
ing fact that the principles laid
down by Judge Taft in these very
injunctions, which laboring peo-
pie are asked to condemn, are
themselves the very principles
which are now embodied in the
laws or practices of every respon-
sible labor organization. The
principles which he therein 80
wisely and fearlessly laid down
serve as a charter Of liberty for
all Of us, for wage workers, for
employers, or the general public;
for they rest on the principles of
fair dealing for all, Of overland
ed justice for all. They mark
the Judge who rendered them as
standing for the rights of the
whole people; as far as daylight
Is from darkness, so far is such a
Judge from the time-server, the
trucker to the mob, or the cring-

rupting OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

snow, it seems to be conceded by
friend and tee that few men have been
nominated for the presidency whose
experience, whose training and whose
sound and wholesome fashion of grasp
ing and dealing with public questions
were equal to those Of William H.
Taft.
"He is not a crusader, he is a states
man with conscience. He has won his
present position through a cheerful, un-
hesitating and undertaking devotion to
duty, through actually achieving things
Oh the open field of action, through an
intelligent conception Of the strength
and worth Of our great government
with its checks and balances; and the
strength and capacity Of our citizen
ship with its loyalty and its patriotism.
"No man ever had a deeper regard
for the fundamental principles and pre-
cepts upon which this government is
| founded, and no one ever had a frmer
conviction that the constitution is a
sufficient chart by which to measure all
rights and obligations and to gauge all
the demands and all the aspirations
and restrain and control all the reck-
lessness of this indomitable race of
ours. Trained in the law, eleven years
on the bench, he explored well the
sources Of Jurisprudence and carried
away from his work an everlasting de-
votion to order and Justice.
Under all circumstances and under
all emergencies, he has proved himself
a brave, 'clean-minded, self-poised and
courageous statesman. No man can put
his finger upon a little OF cowardly
act, nm incompetent or questionable
piece of public service-no stain upon
his private life, no shadow upon
/ his public career. And standing now in
the full fierce light which beats upon a
throne, with eager eyes scrutinizing
every act of a long and arduous public
career, no doubt arises as to his expe-
rience and ability, no challenge comes
to his fine sense of duty or his patriot

COCHRAN ON TAFT.

There is a remarkable unanim-
ity of opinion Of Judge Taft in
all parties and In all sections.
Men pay tribute to his remark
able ability even where party pol
itics may exert such an influence
as to demand the %espousing Of
the rival presidential candidates
cause. As an illustration w.
Bourke Cochran in an interview
at Boston the other day said:
Eyes, I shall support Bryan ; he.
is the best candidate the Demo-
Gratis could put up. Taft, how
ever, is the greatest and best
qualified nominee ever offered in
any republic in the world. He is
a greater man than Roosevelt.
and when surrounded by the
same environments that made
Roosevelt great will prove a big
ger man. Taft is a wonderful adj
ministr ator, the greatest the
country has ever seen. and is a
wonderful worker"

Democratic Incon.istency.

The Democratic leaders have been
for years making loud declarations
against corporations and trusts and
railroads and have, nevertheless, in
stituted no legislative steps in all this
time for the purpose Of restraining
abuses. They are now indignant that

the promises of it's own platform. il

which they, with a superb %self-compla-
cency, claim are really covered by a

have been made manifest by signs not
to be misunderstood, a q%uickening Of
the public conscience and q demand for

Of his country should have a feeling Of

Hon. Henry B. Sherman. of Greens
burg, Ind, was here to witness the
close of the tobacco deal. Mr.. Sher-

organization of the Burley Society
of Equity. In the closing weeks of
1906, he worked almost night and dax
as lecturer and organizer. 1t was
in the famous whirlwind campaign.
Pledges of growers were taken on the
condition that fifty per cent of the
one hundred and twenty thousand ac-
res be subscribed by January LIST,
1907.
On the morning of that day it was
found that there was a shortage of
twenty thousand acres. The meet
inc was held in this city. Steps were
immediately taken to secure add
tional pledges. By four o'clock p.
M, ifty-three per cent of the acre
ace was pledged. The city was full
of tobacco growers. When success
was assured, there was great re-
Joicing.
A meeting was held at the Opera
House and Mr.. Sherman was the
principal speaker. AT night the Elks
gave a Dutch lunch to which every
body was invited.
Mr.. Sherman in his enthusiasm
made about a dozen speeches as fol-

DR. KICKS SPEAKS TO
THE sCHO0LIIcH|LDREN
Gives Very Interesting Lecture on the
Life and Works of
Samuel.

DIR. W. B. Kicks delivered an ad-
dress Wednesday morning at the
street building to the members of
the Winchester High School and a
number of visitors. RI. Kicks said
In part that there were two voices
calling to every boy and girl. One
calling them to duty, purity and love;
the other, calling to sin, crime and
folly. One voice is that of God, the
Father, the other that of the Devil.
the soul destroyer.
He said that every boy and girl
must do something. IL they did not
good, they would do evil. The call
Of God is to a life of service, love
and. helpfulness of ones fellow men
and happy is the boy that heeds this
call.
Some parents seem to think that
if their boys are engaged to make
money and their girls to get into So
ciety, that they are successful. This
is very low plane In which to pitch
human life. He said that Samuel
was pious and that he liked the word.
1t means positive goodness. This
goodness was shown in ready ODE
dience to the call of his superior. He
recalled that many of the very great
men had been Cody and pious in
their childhood.
Boys and girls are respected for
piety and purity manifested in their
lives. He called attention of his
hearers to two great truths that one
-'ust>learn to obey before being able
to command and to follow before
they are able to lead.
