AFTER FOREST RANGERS.

Following a meeting of the Utah
woolgrowers in Salt Lake yesterday. 1t
| WAS announced that some time today
| during the sessions of the convention
| protest would be filed against some
| of the forest rangers who have dis
eliminated against certain nockmas-
! ters, according to the complaint of the
| Sheepmen.
The particular grievance of the flock
| masters Is that the rangers have dis
| eliminated against sheep in favor OF
| cattle in Issuing permits for grazing on
| the national forests. In Utah the coun-
| ties where this has occurred. according
| to the sheepmen, are Sanpete. Summit
| and Wasatcb. The woolgrowors say
! that they are enjoying the most friend
| 1y relations with the forest service as
an organization, but certain indivld-
| uals In the service are the objects of
! the complaint
Another matter which will come up
is protest from the shcepmen in re-
gard to paying a head tax on sheep In
another They declare that they
will oppose the law which I'M
poses a tax of 20 cents a head
in Utah for sheep that Craze In Ne
vada. They will either seek the amend
ment of the law or test It's constitu-
tionality In the courts.
The railroads have announced that
an extension of time on tickets has
been granted until Jan. IL, giving the
sheepmen plenty of time to attend the
state woolgrowers' convention. which Is
to be held after the national gathering
MANY MATTERS COMING UP.
Many matters of importance are to
come before the convention. 1t Is
stated that strong protest will be
made against the present administra-
ton of the national forests by CHIEF
Forester clifford Pinchot, who Is ex-
pected to attend the convention later
in the week. He Will undoubtedly
make a reply to his critics II he ar
rives, which is almost assured
Another matter of great importance
to the sheepmen Is the Burket BILL
provides that all unoccupied and un-
shall be placed under the administra-
tive control of the bureau of forests.
This Will be vigorously opposed by the
sheepmen on the ground that the vast
tracts now open as free range to their
GockS would only be open under
rental
The wooIgrowers will also attempt to
secure uniform bounty laws. provid-
ing for bounties on wild animals which
prey upon their fioclks. The laws In the
western states are similar In few re-
spects and they Will attempt to have
this remedied and also to have the
bountIes made sufficiently high to
