ROOSEVELT POLICIES.

Should the state land board carry out
the policies outlined at a recent in
formal meeting held in Denver, the
board will have accomplished duty
that will command the highest approval
of both interpretations and individuals
who have the honest development and
welfare of the state at heart. The
substance of the policies outlined that
will guide them hereafter in the SELL
ing and leasing of public lands, will be
to exercise the greatest care, In seeing
that the rights of the individual pur-
chaser, as we'll as the rights of the
private farmer into whose hands the
holdings will ultimately revert, shall
be fully protected. This is all the peo-
Pile ask, fair deal. The people have
been loath to believe that heretofore
state lands have been leased and sold
impartially and Unfortunately to un-
bonifide investors and mere speculat-
ors..
Secretary Pierce Of the board, in the
informal meeting in speaking about the
action of the board, said: 'It is our
intention to see that the farmer shall
be protected when he comes tt be the
ultimate and individual owner of a
tract of lahd improved by the large
companies. He must be especially pro-
lected as to water rights and not forced
10 pay rates far in advance Of the true
rf ~, boII;prv1
"To make the matter clearer, l will
say that it is to be the policy of the
land board to allow land to go to large
bona fide companies for, the develope-
ment of Colorado, and, at the same
time protect the small owner. We be-
lieve that the irrigation companies
should make good profits, but not swol-
len, unfair fortunes OUT of the natural
resources OF Colorado. The attitude of
the board on the question may be sum-
med up in three sentences--first, we
want to see if the scheme ID on the
square; second, we are determined
that fair price shall be paid for the
land taken over. and, third, we Will see
that the individual owner is protected
and not subjected to exorbitant prices
for water rights.
