throizing the issuance of rifle clubs

an Appropriation of 100000 for
the necessary ammunition and equip

supply of rifles, not of the exist

Wyoming ~Re.surveys

Representative Mondell has
introduced a bill appropriating $50,
900 for the purpose of enabling
the Secretary of the Interior to
make examinations, resurveys and
retracements of public Ian DIS in
Wyoming. The demand for this
work comes from all parts of the
state where lands are still open to
entry, and where areas have been
already entered. Every effort has
been made to have this work done,
and while numerous government
parties have been sent into the
state at various times, it is felt
that the sum named in the Mon
Hell bill would enable a much lar
ger portion of the state to be SER
we'd. The bill will be pushed ON
both ends of the capitol if it can
be gotten out of the appropriations
committee of the house.

his family in search of health.
He had been troubled for some
time with stomach trouble and
when he went to San Diego he

Railroad Blockade Raised

The railroad situation ia now in
9 bearable shape, the s.. & e. being
clear of snow and operatiog trains
The blocade was lifted Tuesday
evening, about 5 o'clock, when the
U. P. snow pillow and engine, the
two ) & e. engines, passenger car
and stock cars for the Davis &
Carroll and the Hunter, Casteel &
Hunter cattle shipments, arrived
the depot here. For four days the
Q. P. snow pillow had been at work
on the S. & E. cuts between here
and Walcott. The first snow pillow
began work on Sunday morning
and got as far as the Mead cut,
when it broke down and WAS sent
to Rawlins for repairs. Another
pIow was sent up from Hanna and
it began work at IL o'clock Mon
day night. It was badly hsmpered
for want of both water and coal,
but by using snow, managed to get
through. Its progress was very
slow, owing to the heavy U. P
engine and equipment and the
light rails of the =. & E. The en-
giueer of the snow pillow said the
Mead cut was the worst PROPOSE
ton he had ever tackled. s. & E..
crew of train men had a very hard
time of it showed in between cuts,
they were without food or place to
sleep. They had been out there on
TIL plains for ten days but manag
ed by shoveling snow into the ten

They were at one time for three
days without food, and withou,
adequate shelter, with the Their

Ranchman Makes Reply
Editor of Sun.

L seem to be the person attract.
ing the attention just now, of M
Casteel. Of Hunter Casteel &
Hunter, in regard to a remark
made in my previous letter to the
Sun, on, What is the Matte,
with the Saratoga valley?" Mr.
Casteel's letter has caused me tc
inquire farther into the matter az
to why, "One ditch started and
stopped or was stopped" Now ]
meant no harm by that remark
but 1t looked to me after reading
what was supposed to be a circu.
lar letter (sent out to the ranch
men, who divert water from
Brush creek for irrigation pur-
poses,) by Mr.. Casteel, on Hunt
er. Casteel g. Hunter, letter heads
that l stated what any one else
would have supposed.
In the article in the Sun, Mr..
Casteel says that they merely
wanted to assert their rights to
the High Line Canal. Now how
do you mean the following, which
is a paragraph from your letter,
before mentioned, of Nov. 4, 1911:
"We are desirons to know
if you will cooperate with US
in this matter. We will fight
it through the courts, refus-
ing all offers of compromise,
or settlement. At the same
time ask the State Engineer,
not to grant The Saratoga
Reservoir & Irrigation Co.
any of the normal flow from
North and South Brush creek.
or Barrett creek, claiming the
State Engineer has granted
them a permit to do So"
Why did you need the support
of the water-users of Brush creek
TO help you assert your rights to
the High Line Canal when they
had no interests in the same, and
what has the water rights granted
to the Saratoga Reservoir q Ir.
rlgation Co. got to do with your
title to the High Line Canalp
Here is another paragraph from
the same letter
"All cost, and expense of the
case to be pro rata according
to the acreage of the Patented
land, Desert and Homestead
entries, upon which final proof
has not been submitted"
If you are such a large firm,
why do you try to get others into
help to stand the cost of this lit
tie affair.
Here is another paragraph Of
same letter:
eff you do not care to join
us in this matter we shall feel
that we have the liberty to ac-
cept any terms in settlement,
for a permit to enlarge the
High Line Canal that we may
agree upon, without asking
any ones advice or council"
Now haven't you that right?
1 presume you mean by the fore
going that if the other fellows
don't come in you will be the
martyr and take all the blame,
but you don't want the other fell
lows to kick, or COME in later and
claim half the honors.
And here is another paragraph:
"We do not consider this
case as effecting III personally
but one that has a direct sig
nificance to every one obtain
ing their water from Brush
creek or tributaries"
If this case-as you state in the
Sun-only involves the owner
ship of tine High Line Canal
what do you now think of your
letter of Nov. 4, 1911? l am
merely interested in why there

What 10 the Matter7
Editor Of the Sun:

what Is the Matter with the
Saratoga Valley? Not being able
to Locate or explain the true cause
for our lack or progression. All
this knocking" and trouble gen.
orally there seems to be a growing
disposition among a certain class
OF citizens to direct his pick at
the stockman.
This feeling has lately been
voiced, Enthusiastically, in the re-
cent letter published in the Sun,
signed, A Rauchman, and made
more emphatic by an article which
followed Immediately in the En-
campment Herald.
Considered seriously, this is no
light charge, and in behalf of the
stockmen, l will present. a few facts
from another point of view, ais o
explaining the zeal attitude of the
majority of the stock growers of
this valley.
To begin with: Time has al
ready proven that the worst
knockers, the men most detriment-
al to our ultimate progress and
development, have been the boost
ers for the fake schemes promoted
and advertised in this valley. Our
mining prospects are good, our
agricultural possibilities without
question and needed nothing bet
ter than fair and honest represent
tation. But the false, exaggerated
and, illegatimate advertising of all
kinds has queered US to the out
side world. People have been lured
here under entirely false represen-
t%ation, and, disappointed and dis
gusted, gone away to spread our
fame.
Anyone having resided here for
any length of time, pausing to
consider, al recall some notable
examples of this in both mining
and irrigation projects, and who
can forget those first issues of the
Encampment HeraldP The town
was built and populated, two
thirds upon fabrication.
Our valley has been victemized
by dishonest promoters. That is
what is the trouble with our min
es; that is the chief fault with our
irrigation projects.
When some bona-fde company
does come here, and really mean
ing business, builds a ditch, fills
it with water, and can truthfully
say; Now, there is your land, and
there's your water" Boosters can
boost, AND knockers can knock but
the water right Will be sold and
the land grabbed up like hot cak-
es. Then, and not until then, will
the desired result be obtained.
Now. as to the attitude of the
stockman: 1t is as ridiculous as
it is unfair to place the fault up
on his shoulders, for he neither
breads or fears the farmer. As it
stands today, the fertile lands OF
this valley. adapted to farming, is
of very little value for grazing
Our open range is the mountains
and rocky foothills, which having
practically no soil, is not and new
err can be useful for anything else,
We do not attempt to belittle
the agricultural possibilities, we
bclive in them aud have hope for
them, but this valley is primarily
and essentially a stock country.
The stockmen are the ones who
are holding this valley together
