At this meeting came up the question
of expense for the detection and prose-
cution of the late thefts by Douglas
Langholf 1t appeared that he parties
injured have so far borne the
expense of detection, production of evil
dence and the stockmen are agreed that
under the customs of the range there
should be some sharing of this burden
by thd association; but there is some
disagreement as to the point of view to
take of the transaction.
The issue is whether to compensate
these parties for their expense or to pay
the reward authorized to be offered by
the Associations Executive Committee,
but not offered in this case because the
fact of the theft was not made public
until prosecution commenced, and the
evidence was already secured.
The Association rendered vote of
thanks to DIR. Delaney of Wyoming for
his services in preventing the spread OF
cattle diseases and his liberal cooper
alton with the stockmen last year.

STATEMENT BY
CLIFFORD PINcHo7

Any statement that President Taft is
not in sympathy with forestry and the
conservation movement is without
foundation. On the contrary, l am
authorized by the President to say that
he is in entire sympathy with the forest
and the conservation policies as already
developed and stands behind them.
This statement is wholly unnecessary
to those acquainted with the real situa
ton 1t is made only in answer to the
large number of questions asked me
during my recent trip through the west
and since my return. These questions
had to do with runners to the general
effect that the administration is out of
sympathy with the forest policy and the
conservation policy. In order to set
these runners at rest by an authoritve
statement of what 1 already knew to be
the fact, thought it best to lay them
before President Taft. Accordingly it
is with his authority that mrke the
above statement.
lam also authorized by the President
to deny categorically the story that
great areas are to be thrown out of the
National Forests by Presidential procla-
nation. The only possible basis for
such a rumor that I have been ablo to
discover lies in certain plans adopted by
the Forest Service months ago. These
plans were in accord with lines of policy
long recognized and established. They
were approved by Secretary Wilson and
they provided for careful examination
and mapping of the boundaries Of the
National Forests and of the character of
the land, and the timber and other
growth, along these boundaries.
Repeated charges, well known to be
baseless by those actually acquainted
with the situation on the ground, have
been made. that the National Forests
contain vast areas of agricultural land.
Whatever agricultural lands may be
found along the boundaries will be re
stored to entry, for one of the strongest
desires of the Forest Services now and in
the past is that any agricultural lands
which may have been included in Ma
tional Forests should be open to use for
agricultural purposes. Indeed this is
already provided for in the act of June
II, 1906 The Forest Service undeatook
the mapping of the National Forest
boundaries on its own initiative in the
regular line of its work and in pursuance
