OPEN FOREST LANDS, COLORADO
SAYS TO THE UNITED STATES
SUPREME COURT.
DISCRIMINATION IS ALLEGED
To Declare Big Western Reserva'
tions Unconstitutional the Aim of
Those Opposing Roosevelt's Policy
Cattlemen Behind It.

Washington. Jan. l7.-An attack
on the conservation policies inaug-
urated by the Roosevelt administra-
ton, more serious probably than
any heretofore made, will be contain
ed in an appeal next week to the
United States supreme court to de-
clare unconstitutional the creation
of the big forest reservations of the
west.
Failure to win on this proposition
is not to end the campaign of the
anti-conservationists They have pre-
pared to fight step further against
the alleged independence of the for
est reservations from the state laws
on the theory that the federal gov
ernment in creating them holds the
land merely as a big land proprietor
and not without any prerogatives Of
sovereignty.
The fight has arisen out of the
attempt of the United States TO en-.
join Fred Light, Colorado cattle
man, from allowing his cattle to
trespass," on the Holy Cross forest
reserve in that state. Despite Lights
claim that the formation of the re-
serve without the consent of the
state was in violation OF the federal
constitution, and that action for tres
pass could not be maintained under
the Colorado laws, unless the land
in question had been fenced the
circuit court of the United States
for the District of Columbia issued
the injunction The case was appeal
ed to the United States supreme
court. 1t has advanced for oral ar
gument Monday, January 90.

that by withdrawing Tom settlement

Laxative Sent
Free to Try

1t may be taken for granted that
there is no family of any size that
goes very long without needing a lax
ative. If you don't know of a good
laxative, or the laxative you are using
is losing its effect, we want to call
your attention to DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup
Pepsin, which thousands of families
are using successfully.
We have scores of letters from moth
ers, and scores from prominent men
saying they are using 1t personally ana
giving 1t to their families. men like Mr..
c. X Smith of the Traffic Clearing
House, Pine Bluff, Ark, and Mr.. George
B. Turner, a lawyer of Harlan. Ky. The
thousands OF mothers who use II them
selves and give 1t to their children
would take too much space to mention.
The reason they prefer Syrup Pepsin
is that il is a mild, gentle laxative
tonic that does not gripe-effective and
yet so mild that babies can take IL. Its
tonic ingredients invtgorate the body
and strengthen the stomach and bow
ell muscles so that they again do their

The inability further to uphold this
price is said to be due partly at least
to the open winter of 1911 and the
large crops of 1910.
Three commission men failed last
week as a result of holding large
quantities of butter, which they pur-
chased at an average price of thirty
one cents a pound and now are un-
able to market for more than twenty
seven of twenty eight cents a pound.
" hile the Wholesale prices of butter
and eggs have dropped decidedly
within the last few weeks, there has
as yet, been no decline in the retail
prices.
Much of the produce which now is
to be unloaded on a falling market
has been in the warehouse for as long
as five years. BY means of cold stor-
age, commission men have been able
tn maintain an artificial price, not
only to the consumer but to the pro-
duCer. ii is said.
No public warehouse report is ever
made here and the exact amount of
produce in the hands of Chicago firms
cannot be estimated. Thirty-two
houses are known to have A million
pounds of butter, eggs and poultry.
Men familiar with the market condi-
tion today said it would be impossi-
BILE to say whether that figure repre-
scented nearly the total or whether it
was only a small percentage of the
entire amount.
The increased sale of olemargarine
is given as an added cause for the
situation, the commission now finds
itself facing. Thousands of consum-
srs. unable to pay the price at which
butter has been held, have become
users of oleomargarine.
Butter is six cents pound lower,
wholesale, than II was !elV ago
and is selling at the lowest figure in
five years. An indication of the de-
cline in the last ten days is shown in
the following:
January Eggs. fresh, "a cents:

cry. % cents: firsts, %; dairy, %.
The wholesale price on smoked
meats. beef and pork. has been slight
ly reduced in price. The big corn
crop OF 1910 is given as the cause.
