of homestead. desert land and min eral claims refused. and attributing refusals for mineral surveys to the forest service, which has nothing whatever to do with them: And as this department has been active for some five years. it is reasonable to assume that over 11.000 settlers of one kind and another have been denied the right and opportunity to develop the resources of Colorado"
 These figures of claims refused are evidently likewise perversiOns of the statement of June l. Your editorial makes these figures apply to Colo rado alone. whereas in fact they refer to the whole United States.
 The forest service has had charge of the national forests since February l, 1905, something less than four years. During that time the forest service, as already explained, has neither approved nor denied a single claim. The law absolutely prohibits any such action by anyone outside of the department of the interior.
 The forest service is not now, and never has been. in politics. It has therefore no alliance with any politi cal faction or party. I pass over with this brief but emphatic denial your effort to drag the forest service into the present political campaign in Colorado.
 The Forest service has always in- vited candid criticism and co-opera- tion of the people of the west in its attempt to give them a steadily more hopeful administration of the national forests. but it insists that criticisms to be helpful must have some relation to the facts.
 At my invitation of october 10 the president of the American Mining Congress is about to appoint a com mittee of mining men to cooperate with the forest service in the at tempt to remove any and all legiti- mate causes of complaint.
 The forest service stands now, and has always stood. for the develop ment, not only of Colorado. but of every state in which any national forest lies, through which any river flows whose headwaters lie in a na- tional forest, or whose people use the timber, the minerals, the wool, the mutton or the beef produced by the ndllOnal 1OreStS- The forest SerN- ice stands for the development and conservation of all our natural re- sources. Certain duties have been imposed upon it by law. These duties it has been performing to the best of it's ability with the means placed at at it's disposal by congress. It is a new organization confronting a gi- gantic task, and it would be re- markable in the extreme if the ad- ministration at the beginning showed the polish and perfection which may fairly be expected. but it is not often realized, from organizations of long experience in well known fields.
 Very truly yours,

YOU! DYSPEPTICS
READ
What an Eminent Medical Man Says Dyspepsia Really Is.. 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 in the stom- ach. distress flor a long time after meals. accompanied by weighty and uneasy feelings at pit of stomach, de- composition of food in ailmentary 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.

Use Book" specifically eXcepts from the duties to be performed by the forest service on the national forests any connection with such laws as affect the surveying; prospecting. re- conveying, certifying, or patenting" of any lands within their bounda- ries. All these duties are retained by the department under the laws of the United States.
 The forest service has never de- nied a patent to any mineral claim in any national forest. nor declared the same to be invalid, for it has no right to do so. But it is the duty of the forest service, under the law, to report to the department of the interior upon it's request, the actual facts on the ground concerning any claim or location within a national forest. to enable the department of the interior to form a judgment as to the validity of such claim or loca- tion. The department of the in terior forms that judgment and acts upon 1.-the forest service merely re- ports such facts as it finds. It is not the judge, but merely a witness in the case.
 So far as the appropriation made for the forest service by congress would permit, the forest service has secured practical miners. competent to make correct reports of the facts. It has likewise secured the assist ance of skilled mining geologists from the United States geological survey and so far as I am informed no hearing has ever been held by the department of the interior on a mining claim in a national forest at which evidence has not been given either by an expert miner or by a member of the United States geo. logical survey, or both
 Your editorial of October 15 says, with reference to the 16,000,000 acres of national forests in Colorado, that Tt is impossible to stake mineral claim in that immense min eralized area. Such are the facts"
 These alleged facts have, I think. been sufficiently disposed of in what I have already said.
 I revert to your editorial of De- tober 16 in which you say: Coal lands are withdrawn from entry. 1TOSpeCtOTS were OenleQ permission to stake claims. Farmers were re- fused irrigation rights. Settlers re- fused lands. Within the last nine months nearly 2,000 applications for homestead entries and mining claims on these 16,00O,O0O acres have been refused by the forestry service" There is no exaggeration in this statement. Every word of it is emphatically true
 A statement was given out by the forest service on June 1, 1908, which showed that during the nine months ending March 31, 1908, unfavorable reports had been submitted by the forest service to the department of the interior. for it's consideration as to whether a hearing or investiga- tion should be ordered by that de- partment; in only 1885 cases of all classes in all of the national forests in the United States. This statement has evidently been perverted and made to apply to Colorado alone. which has less than one tenth of the national forest area of the United States

The deere of the United States su

1t was on March 23 that the highest

the young man filed a petition for a
rehearing. In the decree filed with
Clerk Bousquet yesterday it is under.

CASTRO SLAPS AT FRANCE
BRAZILIAN MINISTER CAN'T
HANDLE ITS INTERESTS.
French Affairs in Caracas Are Beino
Neglected Because of the Pres
ident's Ruling.

Caracas, via Willemstad, Aug. 19.-
A sensation has. been caused. in sdiplo
matte circles by the refusal of Presi
dent Castro to permit the Brazilian
minister to take charge of French in.
terests in Venezuela, although DR..
Jose Paul, the Venezuelan minister of
foreign affairs, originally agreed to
this arrangement
AS a consequence of the attitude of
President Castro, the foreign minister
has indited a second note to the effect
that the government now refuses to
accede to this arrangement because
the dispute between Venezuela and
France bears a close relation to Ven.
ezuela's dispute with the United States
and the proposed arrangement would
therefore endanger the continuance Of
friendly relations with Brazil.
The French interests necessarily are
being neglected and many monthly in
stalments due to French claimants
are still uncollected. 1t is very unlike
ly, in view of the present state of af-
fairs, that President Castro will per-
nit the representative of any of the
foreign countries to take the French
interests in hand.
President Castro has left for a trip
to Barquisimento, embarking on the
gunboat Restaurador for Tucacas,
which is about 25 miles from Puerto
Cabello. The president invited the
British minister to accompany him.
