know of nothing that can be done
to bring about a change Of mind on

This was the statement today OF
Attorney Daniel Coleman Jr.. counsel
for Gilbert. in summing up the situa'
ton following yesterdays decision by
the Supreme Court denying the muir
derer Of Miss Amanda Morse writ OF
error on his appeal from the final de-

him to death.
Attorney Coleman said he today re-

that they will not go. He does not

III by mistake. injustice has been

so far as l have the power. But re-
member two things in the Rrst place.
the forest service is not responsible
for the law as II exists or for the rul-
ings OF the Department OF the inte-

law and by these rulings. With both
in most particulars. il is in hearty

Where similar Illegal attempts are
made in the future. il proposes to de-
feat them If II can. in every single
instance, whether the attemp; Is to
take the claim for timber, for power.
or for any other than legitimate min
ing purposes. On the other hand II
will do its best to help the legitimate
prospectors and miners and to give
them advantages and protection which
they do not enjoy On lands outside

said that he was determined not to

In other Words he said. the ben.
eft OF every reasonable doubt is given
to the miner
There Is a certain kind OF opposi-
tion to the national forests which can.
not and ought not to be removed. II
there was no opposition whatever to-
the forest service. it would be the
clearest possible indication that the
service Is not doing It's duty In
the exercise Of the duty imposed upon
it the service has time and again
prevented certain men or certain in.
terests from getting things they want
ed. but ought not TO have, and from
these men and these interests the bit.

hou ofooHil,. Snah
interests are found. for example, in
some Of the great sheep men who OBJ
ject to making room for the small
settler. or to such reduction in the
of their stock as Is necessary
to protect the irrigation interests and
from men who are engaged in the for
nation of a great water rover trust.
For the opposition 1t has excited from
these interests, the fores, service has
no apologies whatever to make. III
proposes TO stand resolutely by the
policy of preferring to help the small
man make a living than to help the
large man make a profit. and 1t will
not abandon the policy Of government
control Of the water power to prevent
II the attitude of the SER
vice in these matters leads to irrita-
ton and denunciation, then let the
opponents of the service make the
most of them. Neither in this nor
in any other salutary policy adopted
and maintained by the forest service
will there be a single BACKWARD step"
