ASSIGNMENTS OF FOREST
SERVICE DISTRICT OFFICERS.

The district fOreSters who will be in
charge of the six field districts of the
forest service, beginning January l.
1908, have been selected by United
States Forester Clifford Pinchet. They
are as follows District /, w. B. Gree
ley, Missoula, Mont. district 2, Smith
Riley, Denver, Colo; district 3, A. G.
Ringland, Albuquerque, New Mexico !;
district 4, Clyde Leavitt, Ogden, Utah ;
district 5, F. e. Olmsted, San Francis
co, California; district 6, e. r. Allen,
Portland, Oregon.
| 1t was the original intention to To-
cate the headquarters of district at
! Salt Lake The change to Ogden was
made on account of advantages as re-
CARDS convenience and economy of liv-
ing afforded by that city.
All the district foresters are men of
tenchnical training and tried practi-
cal ability in forest matters Most
Of them have been members of the
forest service for several years. They
have risen in the service through sue
Cessive promotions. They are famil-
lar with national forest work, with the
west and with the western people. Re-
Gently they have been dealing in their
daily work with the technical and bus
mess problems over which they will
have larger and more responsible SUI
pervision under the new assignments.
Mr.. Greeley was born in New York
in 1879, and in 1890 moved to Califor-
MIA, which is still his legal residence
He is a graduate of the University of
California, and of the Yale forest
school, receiving the degree of master
of forestry from the later, in 1904. At
ter working with the U. S. geological
survey he entered the forest service
through civil service examination July
]. 1904. His last position was that of
supervisor OF the Sequoia national for
est, California.
Mr.. Riley was born in Maryland in
1878. He received his education in
the Sherwood Friends school in Mont
gomery county, and in the public
schools of the district Of Columbia. He
entered the forest service as a stu
dent assistant in May, 1900 and has
since held successfully the positions
forest supervisor, and associate chief
of the Office of forest management.
Mr.. Ringland was born in New York
in 1882. After graduating from the
Montclair High school he became
student assistant in the forest service
in 1900. He has since held the posi-
tons of assistant forest expert, for
est assistant, was transferred back to
the forest service when, in 1905, the
forests were placed under the admin
istration of the forest service, he be-
came assistant chief of the section of
reserve boundaries. In July of the
same year he accepted the position of
state forester of California. He re-
turned to the forest service in July,
1906, as district inspector, afterwards
called chief inspector, for Oregon,
Washington and Alaska.

MORE LAND FOR
MINIDOKA TRACT.

The Minidoka irrigation project
looks SO good to government officials
that they are making preliminary sur
veys with a view to materially en-
larging the irrigated area on the north
side of Snake river AS far as they
have progressed, these preliminary
surveys have been entirely satisfac-
tory, so satisfactory that the secre-
tary OF the interior today withdrew
from all forms of entry 1865 900 acres
OF land on the north bank of the Snake
river just east of Shoshone falls. The
Withdrawn lands lie in townships 7. 8
and 3, range 10 and 20 east. If it
shall be later determined to irrigate
these lands their withdrawal will pre-
vent speculative entries. Examinations
under way are not only with regard to
the amount of water in Snake river
for irrigation purposes, through con-
struction OF storage works on the
headwaters of the Snake and its tri-
butaries.-St

STATE LAND SALES.
Prices Show That Demand for Carey
Act Land Is Great.

State land sales are proving more
attractive to investors than ever be-
fore, especially such tracts as will
eventually be irrigated by the Pay
ette-Boise project. At a sale of these
lands held at the court house yester-
day morning, "A of SO forties offered
were sold. the price generally rang
ing from 81 to IS above the appraise-
ments. One tract appraised at sS5
sold for $1,000, while tracts apprais-
ed at $25 sold for $50 and tracts at $50
for $35. The land in the southern
part of the county not under a canal,
but which may be irrigated by pump
ing system, sold at the appraisement,
$40.
State lands generally are command
ing better prices than ever before. At
recent sale in Canyon county, lands
in the vicinity of Emmett sold at so
per cent more than the appraisement,
while tracts in the various other
southern counties offered have not
been wanting for bidders. While the
volume of sales for 1908 has not been
as great as for 1907. this is due to the
amount of acreage placed on sale, the
percentage of sales of lands adver-
tised, however, has been much larger,
and the prices uniformally higher.
Landseekers are not only attracted
by these sales, but many are purchas-
ing ACCOMPLISHMENTS of homestead en-
tries, often paying $40 and SIS an acre.
During the past year there has been
greater number of such transactions
than ever before. The class of entry
men coming are homebuilders and
bring with them as rule, sufficient
capital to develop their claims into
farms and valuable orch
ards, as soon as water is ready for
delivery.
Two state land sales are advertised
for Canyon county this week. Today,
2200 acres will be offered at Nampa,
the appraisement ranging from $25 to
$50 an aero. Some of this land is ex-
we'll located and is expect
ed to sell we'll The other sale will be
held at Caldwell tomorrow of land APP
praised at $40 excepting six forties
at $3.50, owing to the fact that pump
ing will be necessary for Irrigation

NATIONAL FOREST
RANGES IMPROVED

The increasing demands for grazing
pasturage on the national forests, COM
bined with the necessity for guarding
the range against overstOcking, are
forcing the forest service to seize and
improve every possible opportunity to
increase the grazing capacity of the
national forest range.
A large number of national forests
contain pasturage that cannot now be
grazed for lack of water for the stock
within convenient reach. The total
range area hampered by dearth of
water Is immense, SO that the problem
presented is of urgent Importance.
The ranges of the southwest are
particularly short Of water, and during
the past summer several reservoirs
and stock tanks were constructed on
the Garces national forest, Arizona,
in part by the forest service independ-
emily and in part with the co-opera-
ton OF the stOckmen. In this way q
great deal of very valuable range was
made available for permanent use in
the future.
In the same region drift fences were
built, and others are contemplated or
are in process of construction. When
finished these fences will effect COM
plete control of the stock grazing
along the International boundary line,
where this forest is situated.
Similar improvements on a large
scale are being carried out on the Kali
bah national forest in northern Ari-
IONA, where 1t is expected that the ca
pacity of the range will be increased
so as to accommodate several thou

THE CLEVELAND ARTICLE.

In it's issue for September IL The
Outlook commented at some length
upon an article believed to have been
written by Grover Cleveland just be-
fore his death, and posthumously pub
lished in the New York Times of Au-
gust 80. The authenticity of this ar
ticle has been questioned, and several
correspondents who do not approve
of the views expressed in it, and OF
it's implied distrust of Mr.. Bryan and
advocacy of the election of Mr.. Taft,
have written to us, calling the article
a fraudulent one, and denouncing The
Outlook for participating in the fraud
Mr.. Kern, the Democratic candidate
for vice president, asserts that 1.-The
letter was never written by Grover
Cleveland" and calls upon all who
have aided in it's publicity" to perform
their duty of righting this great
wrong" Neither Mr. Kern nor any of
our correspondents is justified by the
facts in, taking this position. If Mr..
Kern had said that the genuineness of
this article ascribed to Mr. Cleveland
has been questioned, and that it Is the
duty of all right-minded men to aid
the New York Times in discovering
the exact truth about it, we should
heartily have agreed But, in spite of
the fact that the New York Times,
since this question has arisen, has al
most daily called for evidence from
those who assert that the article is
fraudulent, no evidence that would be
considered in court of law has yet
been produced. On August 81 Mr.. F.
S. Hastings, executor of Mr.. Cleve-
lands esate, wrote to the New York
Times the following letter:
Indian Harbor, Greenwich, Conn,
Aug. 81, 1908.
Dear Sir: am cognizant OF an ar

Executor estate of G. Cleveland.
On September 23, after some influ-
entail Democrats had raised questions
about the article, Mr.. Hastings again
said: II took great pains to investi-
gate all the conditions surrounding
the transaction between Mr.. Cleveland
and the literary agent, and I can state
positively that have had no evidence
which would warrant any doubt as to
the genuinenesss of the article in
question" On September rs Mr..
Hastings directly changed his opinion
as follows: II now desire to say that
there has since come to my know
ledge evidence which leaves in my
mind no doubt OF the fact that the
said article was not written nor sign
ed by Grover Cleveland" When the
New York Times called upon Mr..
Hastings for the evidence to which he
thus referred, Mr.. Hastings either
could not or would not produce, nor
has ex-Secretary Carlisle, to whom
Mr.. Hastings referred as an authority
in the matter, published any evidence.
Mrs. Cleveland Is now reported by Mr..
Hastings as disbelieving in the gen.
uineness of the article, although it
will be seen that on August 81 Mr..
Hastings claimed that the article was
published with Mrs. Clevelands as
sent" The New York Times has now
put the matter into the hands of Dis
trict Attorney Jerome. If it should
be proved. as the result of Mr.. Je-
rome's inquiry, that the article was
fraudulent, The Outlook will at once
report the fact. In the meantime our
readers must weigh the published evil
dence and form their own opinion as
to what weight should be attached to
the article. Our opinion is that the
evidence SO far made public is consist
ent with the belief that the article
represents the views which Mr.. Cleve-
land held and expressed not long be-
fore his death.

THE STATE CAMPAIGN.

Boise, Oct. 1.-THE grandest and
most spectacular pageant ever accord
ed candidate in this state, preceded
the speech of Governor" James H.
Brady here last evening. The streets
OF the entire business district were H.
Illuminated by flaring electric stream
ters, buildings were decorated with
flags and bunting, and all along the
line of march red fire and Roman can
dies added to the impressiveness of
the occasion which will stand out for
all time to the memory of those who
witnessed it. A torchlight procession
full half mile long, started from the
Republican headquarters and trod up
one street and down another between
phalanxes of citizens from this and
surrounding localities, who jammed
the sidewalks. Two bands joined in
the great parade. The Caldwell or
ganization led and the Boise headed
the second division.
Enthusiasm was infectious. and
while the lines were passing cheer af-
ter cheer rang out from the great mass
OF those who participated only as
spectators
One feature which was prominent in
the prediction celebration, was the
unity of the old warehouses; and the
younger blood Of the party, who
tramped and waved their banners and
torches side by side, presenting a solid
front of Republicans.
One section was composed of open
carriages containing the gubernator-
ial candidate. the present governor.
the state chairman, candidates and
other notables. The TATE club OF
Boise. 500 strong, on horseback and on
foot. formed an escort to Brady. Be-
hind the Taft club followed over 500
enthusiastic Republicans from Boise.
