I have always done my best to help
the genuine miner. / believe that one
Of the first duties of the government
Is to encourage honest mining on the
public lands. But 1t il equally impor-
tant to enforce the law firmly against
that particularly dangerous class which
makes its living off the public through
fraudulent mining schemes.
Much Of the opposition to the forest
service. like much Of the opposition to
conservation. takes the form of direct
Misrepresentation. For example. the
cry is often heard that the national for
ests inclOse great areas Of agricultural
land which are thus put beyond the
reach Of settlement.
This statement seems plausible only
till the facts are known. In the first
place. congress has specially provided
that whatever agricultural land there
may be in any national forest shall be
open. under proper safeguards, to
homestead settlement. and in the Sec
Ond place. when the opponents of con-
servation are asked to point out the

70ArtIIy approves STATE ActI0n-sS
Amused by Pleas Of Corporations
Who Seek to Control Water Power
Sites = Government Coal Lands
Should Not Be Sold.
Denver, Aug. o0.-This country has
shown definite signs OF waking up to
the absolute necessity of handling its
natural resources with foresight and
common sense. The conservation qtles-
ton has three sides In the first place.
the needless waste Of the natural re-
sources must br stopped. 1t is rapidly
becoming a well settled policy Of this
people that we If this generation hold
the land in part for the next genera
lion and not exclusively for our own
selfish enjoyment.
Just as the farmer is a good citizen
If he leaves his farm improved and
not impaired for his children and
bad citizen If he skins the land in his
own selfish interest, so the nation be-
HAYES we'll If it treats the natural re-
sources as assets which It must turn
over to the next generation increased
aud not impaired in value and behaves
badly If it leaves the land poorer to
those who come after us.
In the second place, the natural re-
sources must he developed promptly,
completely and in orderly fashion. 1t
is not conservation to leave the natural
resources undevcloped. Development
Is an Indispensable part Of the conser-
walton plan. The forests, the mines,
the water powers and the land itself
must all he put to use.
Those who assert that Conservation
proposes to tic them up, deriving this
generation Of their benefits in order to
hand them on untouched to the next
miss the whole point Of the conscrva-
ton idea. Conservation does not mean
depriving the men Of today Of their
natural rights in the natural resources
of the land.
All 1t means is that we Of this gem
GRAFTON shall SO use our rights as not
to deprive those who come after us Of
their natural rights In their turn.
In the third place, SO far rs possible
these resources must be kept for the
whole people and not handed over for
exploitation to single individuals. We
do not intend to discourage individual
enterprise by unwisely diminishing the
reward for that enterprise. On the
contrary. we believe that the men OF
exceptional abilities should have ex-
ceptional rewards up to a point where
the reward becomes disproportionate
to the service, up to the point where
the abilities are used to the detriment
81 the people us u whole. '':-. 49,
We are for the liberty of the indi-
vidual up to and not beyond the point
where 1t becomes Inconsistent with
the welfare Of the community. Thus
our consistent aim is to favor the
actual settler-the man who takes rs
much Of the public domain as he him
self can cultivate and there makes q
permanent home for his children who
come after him. But We are against
the man. no matter what his ability,
who tries to monopolize large masses
of public land.
State and Federal Control.
Now, to preserve the general well
fare. to see to 1t that the rights OF the

TRYING TO DISCOVER.
CONTINUED from Page L.

The sum total of the matter now
is: If the local contractors are try
ing to hold the city up with padded
estimates of proposed civic work.
and are making an organized and
studied effort to succeed in this re-
solve, the city fathers will be forced
to the extreme of inviting outside
bids upot the work, or incorporate
authorizing the city to perform its
own sewer, bridge and street work
On the other hand, if the city en-
gineer is at fault with his figures
the council has determined to find
it out and why.
1t developed, with the opening cf
the bids for sewer work last even
ing, that in every instance the con-
tractors not only figured the work
higher than the engineer but added
10 per cent in allowance for the dis
count placed upon the city's war
rants by the local banks and an adj
ditional 10 per cent as a margin OF
profit which is permissible. The
question of why the local banks
should demand a discount of 10 per
cent upon city warrants aroused
some discussion among the council
men and the banks were bitterly re-
preached as working an injustice up
on the city, in its efforts to secure
much needed public improvements,
and Alderman Greenbaum explained
that the banks are not demanding
such a discount upon the city's paper
money and this matter, too, has
been made the subject of an investi-
cation.
At any rate there seems to be
gentleman of the brunette cast of
countenance cached away in some
remote recess of the city woodpile,
or, in other words 'Rumthing Soften
in Denmark" and o thorough cam
paign of fumigation or civic santa
tion might be in order.
