Remonstrance Filed in Court.
Remonstrance against the construc-

principal remonstrator was Margaret
Zehner, widow of William Zehner
deceased, representing the heirs and
owners of the Zehner estate. Attor-
neys H. L. Unger and E. c. Martin
dale represented the Zehner interests.
The ground for their remonstrance
was that the sum allowed for the
Lehner dam was altogether INSULT
cient. They demanded the sum of
$4,000 for the removal of the mill
dam, which was the source OF power
for the Zehner mill. The Zehner at

TO PRESERVE
THE FORESTS
CONGRESS AT LAST TAKES A
DECIDED TOWARD CON-
SERVATION.
The Mountain Forest Reserve Meas
ure Made to Apply to all
States.

Transaoting its business amid
scenes of great confusion the house
Monday gave everv evidence that
the present congress is drawing 10 a
close.
In his endeavor to maintain a SEM
biance of order the speaker was con-
stantly pounding his gavel and ad-
monishing the members to cease con-
versation. After two hours of stormy
debate the so-called Appalachian and
White mountain forest reserve bill,
amended so as to apply its provision
70 all states, was passed by narrow
majority of ten. Measures of this
character had been before the House
in one shape or another for many
years and Mondays action witnessed
the partial consummation of a policy
in connection with the conservation
OF forecasts unceasinly pressed by lis
advocates. By the terms OF the bill
the national forest reservation COM
mission rs created for the purpose of
acquiring by purchase or condemna-
ton the lands needed TO promote or
10 protect the navigab:lity of streams
on whose watershed they lie. The
house bill is substitute for that OF
the senate and the measure will now
go TO conference.
The final conference reports on the
army, naval and fortihcations appro-
priation bills were agreed to and the
measures will now go to the presi-
dent for signature. In addition to
this a vast amount of miscellaneous
business was disposed OF. A resolu-
tion designed as a concession - the
so-called insurgents amending the
rules so as to provide one day each
week for a call OF committees gave
rise to immediate discussion and was
adopted by the narrow margin of six
the vote standing 16s to 1862.
After a short discus sion the house
almost UNANIMOUSLY insisted on IT'S dis
agreement with the senate on the
amendment to the legislative, execu-
tive and judicial appropriation bill
raising the salary OF the president,
vice president, the speaker and Unit
ed States judges and the bill for the
third time went back to conference

ering a period OF several years, in
which the central fight was concen-
trated about the old Zehner mill dam,
known to every man, woman and
child OF the city. The owners OF the
mill and dam, have expended money
that will probably run into the thous-
ands all tol to preserve their proper
ty,-a fight which has resulted in de-
feat to the owners of the dam. The
victory, on the other hand. lies with
the farmers, who have peritioned that
Yellow river be dredged, for the ex-
tent mentioned above, and it is said
that by the removal of the dam and
dredging of the river, thousands oil

report with Judge Burson, on May
