Friday Afternoon.

The convention was called to order
at $3.50 in the Opera House, the dele
gates having all returned from their
profitable inspection of the experiment
station. An opening number was rem,
dered by Niethe's orchestra, which was
followed by a selection by the Rawlins
band.
Clifford Pinchot, forester, had been
invited to be present and address the
convention, but declined, and Secre'
tary Walker read the following letter,
received by him and dated at Wash
ington on December Z, 1907:
Pinchot's Letter.

decline your kind invitation to attend
these meetings.
MY position on the question of the
control of the grazing upon the public
lands of the west was made quite clear
in the report to the public lands com.

some very definite statements in regard

secretary of agriculture and to be ad-
mustered under rules and regulations
which will fit the local conditions. leav.

take any hasty action in this matter,

should the state not charge the govern

the forests? Let waters come from
areas above timber line. Theories al.

reserves why not compel other set

Under state control real development
will be encouraged. Monopoly should
be avoided. We have more interest in
our posterity than federal officers can
POSSIBLY have. The pioneers of the
