LARGE CLASSES OF WoULD-5E
FoREsTERs BEFORE SUPER
vIsoRs IN COLORADO.
TESTS ARE PRACTICAL
SURVEYING, ESTIMATING AREAS,
RIDING, CAMPING AND kNoWL-
EDGE OF TREES.

Denver. - Throughout Colorado
Tuesday were held field examinations
of about $50 applicants for the posi-
ton of forest rangers in the United
States forestry department. Probably
the largest class of candidates was ex-
amined on Grasshopper Hill in this
city Under the direction of Acting
Supervisor C. M. Granger of the Pike
national forest, twenty-five men were
tested in surveying, estimating areas,
pacing, horseback riding and the hand
ling of horses, packing camping out
fits and the Identification of tree and
forage plant specimens.
Monday the candidates underwent
written examinations. These con-
sisted of questions concerning meth
DDS of grazing, surveying, numbering,
forestry, mathematics and other sub
jects pertaining to the duties of forest
rangers. The field tests Tuesday were
successful and were completed in the
afternoon.
The men were required to set UP
compasses, sight the instruments, and
to survey certain tracts OF land. EN-
phasis was laid upon work in esti-
mating areas by pacing and compar'
ing the estimates with the results OF
surveys. Forest rangers often must
calculate areas without instruments,
and skill in doing so is important in
their labor. Various tree specimens
and forage plant specimens were CIV
en- the candidates for Identification.
this year for the first time.
In the matter of packing camp out
fits the tests were perhaps most In
teresting to casual observers. The can
didates displayed divers and various
methods of rolling their outfits into
compact and portable bundles. They
differed also in saddling and handling
horses. Whether or not all are good
riders will only be known officially
when the examination results are an
nounced.
Supervisor Granger was assisted In
the test by Forester w. l. Hetchison
and Forest Ranger F. P. Sobey. Al
all headquarters of forest supervisors
the examinations have been held dur
ing during the past two days in Colo
rado. Tests were given at Fort Col
Inns, Steamboat Springs, Glenwood
Springs, Durango, Westcliffe, Lead
vile, Collbran, Delta, Monte Vista,
Meeker, Hot Sulphur Springs, Sa'
guache, Mancos and Aspen.
During the winter it is probable
that the service of many rangers will
not be required, but next spring the
force will be enlarged with the pos
sibility of greater work.

The incorporation election at Limon
Monday passed off quietly, not more
than twenty-five per cent of the total
registration voting. The vote was
forty-two for Incorporation and i've
against it. One year ago last June
ninety-eight votes were polled and the
majority against incorporation was
two.
Milliken, the new station on the d.
l.. G. N. W., west of Greeley, is ce-
ment town. Practically every building
erected in it is made of cement, fire
proof and warranted to stand for
years. The town has Just put down
number of wells to furnish water
supply and has doubled its population
within three months.
Owing to the ever-increasing value
of the company's investments in Col

proteotlno Deer from Indians.

Denver.-State Game and Fish
day telephoned to Sheriff A. G. ELI
son of Rio Blanco county, instruct
ing him to go over to the head OF
Douglas creek and order the band OF
Indians cam
Sc he found tnat they had killed
any deer. He was t.lu Cahe sdf'
sufficient force of men with him to
enforce his demands if the red men
were ugly, and If they resist there Is
a fine chance for little trouble.
The Indians are from the reserva-
ton near Fort Duchense, Utah. and
they are supposed to be awaiting the
first fall of snow which will drive the
deer down out of the mountains. Inc
Indian agent at their reservation
promised Commissioner Holland that
he would look after his charges, but
up to the time Commissioner Holland
notified him of their presence in Col
orado he had been unaware that they
were off the reservation.
Game Warden Robert Weir OF
Meeker wa sent over to the Indian
camp last week and has reported that
there are between. twenty and thirty
of them at the head of Douglas creek.
They had killed no deoS yet, so far as
he could learn, and under the circum-
stances he could do nothing with
them. They refused to move away at
his order, so Commissioner Holland
has enlisted the services of Sherin
Ellison.

ROOSEVELT OFF FOR JUNGLEs.
Makes no Statement Regarding His
Hunt, Other Than That he Will
Return in About Year
and Quarter.

New York, March 23.-Waving a
hearty farewell with his black slouch
hat, his smiling face beaming in the
morning sun as he stood on the cap
tain s bridge Of the steamship Ham
burg, Ex-President Roosevelt sailed
today for his long-planned African
"Safari.' He left amid the cheers
of thousands that swarmed the Ham
burg-American Line pier, the whis-
ties of countless river craft and Inc
thunderous reverberationS Of the Ex-
presidents salute OF Ii guns from
Forts Hamilton. and Wadsworth.
Beside the happy figure Of the for
mer chief magistrate as the big steam
ship slipped out of her dock, stood a
young lad, seemingly detected as he
wistfully gazed at the cheering multi
tude on the pier below. 1T was Ker-
init Roosevelt, who accompanied his
father as official photographer. Faith
er and son, both clad in brilliant buff
hued army coats, remained on the
bridge on the trip down the bay and
acknowledged: with sweeps of their
hats the salutes of the vessels. The
ovation was unofficial in character,
but many high in the affairs Of the
nation were present. The crowd in
its enthusiasm bowled over the lines
of policemen on tie pier, surrounded
the former president while he was
being presented a bronze tablet by Tie
Italian-American chamber Of COM
merce, and before he was again safe
ly back on the sheltering gang-plank,
knocked his hat from his head and
caused him to drop q vacuum bottle,
which had been presented by some
admiring Pittsburg friends. Fort H.
ately Mr.. Roosevelt was not hurt II
the rush, and he seemed to enjoy his
experience with the crowd.
True to his promise, Mr.. RooSe-
velt made no statements regarding
his coming hunt in British East Afrl-
ca other than to say that he proba-
bly, would be gone about a year and
a quarter. Mr.. Roosevelt eschewed
politics to inquiring friends, and con-
tented himself with expressions OF
pleasure and appreciation of the
kindly fareweus Of those who came to
see Inn off.

REPUBLICAN LEADERS UN-
EASY OVER INCOME TAX
So Greatly Are They Alarmed That They Are Con-
SiderinG Question Of Tax on Dividends.

WASHINGTON. May Sl.-If the
Senate we're to vote today ON the
question Of an income tax IL would
be added to the tariff bill. This fact
was made known a few days ago to
the President by Senators Aldrlch and
Crane. who are greatly disturbed
over the situation. although they still
hope TO induce enough Of the pro-
gressive Republicans TO abandon the
idea. Il will require three more
votes than the leaders can command
90 send the income tax amendment
20 the Judiciary Committee. which is
the plan proposed by the Republican
organization for burying the PROPOSE
tiOn for this session and probably for
such as they control the Senate. The
chief objection TO an income tax Is
that Il win undermine the protective
policy. The amendments proposed by
Senators Bailey and Cummins re
spectively would raise a revenue APP
proximating $7O.O0O.OOO a year So
much revenue raised by direct taxa
tion would necessitate the lowering
OF many Of the duties and the eX
treme protectionists are appalled, at
such a prospect On the other hand,
they would not dare collect so much
from incomes and then gather into
the treasury the full amount Of reve-
nue. which the present bill would pro
dUce because that would seriously
n. mace the prosperity Of the country
n. encourage an era Of extravaganza
en- exceeding that OF the last few
years.
So greatly are the Republican lead
ers alarmed at the situation In the
Senate that they are seriously con
sidering Offering the Taft proposition
OF a tax on the dividends Of corpora
tiJus as a substitute for the income
a. amendment The former would
TD'.e a revenue. IL Is estimated. 81
about $4,000. 900 and thus obyiate 10
a considerable extent the necessity 81
low ering the duties al along the line.
The Republicans believe ,Ea, ia tL.s
way they may be able 20 head of
the income tax advocates. Possibly
they can. Il remains 10 be seen.
