PINCHOTT
TALKS OUT

Washington, April 21.-Taft's en-
tire sympathy with the Forest reserve
and conservation policies is announc-
ed and the stories that vast acres are
to he taken away from the national
forests are denied. In a statement re-
garding the administrations attitude,
issued today by Clifford Pinchot, the
declaration was made that any state
ment that Taft is not in sympathy
with the forestry and conservation
movement is without any foundation.
On the contrary I am authorized by
the President to say that he is in sym
pathy and stands behind the ~conServa
ton policy as announced and l am al
so authorized by the President to deny
categorically the story mat large ar
Neas are to be thrown out of the nat
ional forests by Presidential procla-
nation. h only basis o such a ru-
NOR lies in plans announced by the
Forest Service several months ago
that provide for the examination and
mapping of the bounaries of national
forests and to characterize the land"
Repeated charges, known to be
baSeleSs, v been made that the
national forests contain vast e of
agricultural lands. Whatever .agricult-
ural land may be found along the
boundaries will be restored to entry.
One of che strongest desires of the
Forest Service is that agricultural
lands be restored. I nave been inter
ested but not surprised by the per-
sistent circulation of these rumors.
Haft's statement to me is coupled with
authority to make 1t public and this
should set at rest these runors for
good. The friends of these move-
ments should recognize our obligat-
ion to the President for his prompt
and direct support"

A Lonq-Lived Asset.

Not From City Livery.

By request 1t is announced that
non of the hack-drivers who were &C
cused of completely in the recent II
legged robbery were in the employ ot
the City Livery. 1t might be added in
justice to all engaged in that line Of
business. that all of the men accused
of completely in the alleged robbery
were not hack-men. However, since
all of those accused have now oeer
dismissed, the responsibility rests
neither on that particular line of blu
siness nor upon any man or men, as
nobody now stands accused of the
crime.

BALLINGER
WITHDRAWAL PLAN
Geological Survey Officials
Say Public Interests Are
Promptly Protected.
BY John SNuRE.

Apparently with a view to meeting the
criticisms that have been bestowed on
the Interior Department. more espe-
cially on Secretary Ballinger, by some
Of the friends of the movement for the
conservation OF natural resources, a
statement has been issued from the
United States Geological Survey ex-
planning just what is being done with
respect to the withdra walls of public
lands from entry for the purpose of pro-
tecting water power sites.
Secretary Ballinger not long ago sue
eeeded in drawing a fiIe Of bitter at
tacks on the charge that he was hostile
TO conservation because he threw open
TO. entry over a million acres of land
which Secretary Garfield. to protect
water power sites, had withdrawn from
entry.
The statement of the Geological Sur
vey sets forth that. in fact, there has
been prompt action in protection of pub
lie interests. 1t says that, acting upon
the specific instructions Of the Secretary
of the Interior, the United States Geo
logical Survey has begun the investiga-
ton Of water power sites on the public
lands. Since april %, the date of the
Secretary's order. the director of the
survey has recommended eleven tempo
rary Withdrawals in aid or proposed leg
islation affecting the disposal of water
power sites on the public domain
Plan of Protection.
The withdrawals in question aggre-
gate 2s6,S65 acres of public lands in
Utah. Colorado, Wyoming. Montana,
Idaho and Oregon. and have been APP
proved by Secretary Ballinger. It is ex-
planned that the present policy IS to
protect the public by Withdrawing all
public lands containing possible power
sites, and at the same time not with
drawing land of no value for power
purposes. It Is said by the Director of
the Geological Survey the Withdrawals
made and such as will be made before
next regular session of Congress-. will
be ample to protect all the more impOr-
tant water power sites undisposed Of
on the public domain, and enable Con-
gress 70 intelhgently legislate for their
In the Geological Survey statement it
IS set forth that five Of the eleven with
draw ais already made include all the
were withdrawn by Secretary Balm
ger last month. The present with
drawals, however, comprise a much
smaller area, One-siXth or less than the
areas Of the corresponding earlier with
drawals. This is made possible mainly
by the exclusion of land In no wise es-

Geological Survey includes $500 acres
Even greater reductions have been made
for the Flathead and the Missouri and
tributaries IN Montana.
IT is 70 be borne in mind that the
Withdrawals alluded TO in the statement
just issued by the Geological Survey
are temporary and that their perman-
ency Is dependent on legislation by
Congress. Secretary BallInger deems
this necessary. An opposite view was
taken BY Secretary GARFIELD

popularity. Every man among them is

the heavy work of defending the party

don't make campaign tours in close

OPEN EVENINGS.

You must admit the opportunity now
anorded Tor your securing a reliable
and thoroughly high-grade piano Is
most unusual and that you should avail
yourself OF it,
No recollection of previous piano
sales. either here or elsewhere recalls
such excellent piano values as this sale
affords
No Uncertainty About It.
There IS no doubling the money saw
ing possibilities this sale presents, no
uncertainty OF the kind Of pianos being
sold, as the instruments represent the
regular line OF Celebrated Makes always
handled by the Culley Music House, and
instruments must be disposed Of at
once In order to satisfy settlement of
the T. P. Culley Estate, leaves no I'M
certainty or the genuiness OF this offer.
Fortunate Time for People of
Moderate Means.
Indeed it is very fortunate for people
of moderate means to be able to come
here where this splendid stock Of fine
pianos are being disposed of, and select
an instrument of much better value
than they ordinarily could afford. The
variety also gives them reasonable OPP
portunity to select what best pleases
them as to style Of case and finish, and
then too, il is not essential that they pay
cash for the piano they prefer, but ar
rangements can be made for very easy
monthly payments, and this feature, to-
gether with the great saving they are
able to take advantage Of. Is being
greatly appreciated by families whose
expenses are unusually large.
