Conservation Fallacies In Connection
Natural Resources of Western States
Animal Renort o Robert SceNf,
Annual Report Of Robert n Bell Inspecor

: reports, of the supreme court beinl

: revenue rights between two of the or
: iginal states to strip Of mud flat

: Connecticut river. while the same tri
bunal is expected to sanction the de
. liberate alienation of hundreds of mil
lions of dollars worth of revenue
rights from the people of Idaho to the
national government. for the satisfac.
ton of questionable theory.
The business of the government Is
to govern, but not to do the thinking
for its independent citizens. If Idaho
has anything that the nation needs
and can not get along without, it Is
willing to relinquish it's constitution
al mortgage on liberal terms, but If 1t
has an excess of resources over the
immediate national requirements, Its
people are at least entitled to an In
dian allotment. In their efforts to
grab the revenue rights of the public
land states, on pretext of conserva-
| ton, the federal authorities and other
eastern meddlers of the Pinchot type
are overlooking some real problems
of national import
As an example, the cost of living In
the United States is one of the most
serious problems that confronts the
government and is likely to be the
cause of more social and serious in
dustrial unrest, especially after the
purchasing power of a days pay,
than any other subject that confronts
the nation at this time, and in place
Of worrying his head over Idaho for
ests, our national secretary of agri-
culture, within days ride of the ma
tional capitol, can find million acres
of agriculturally abandoned soil that
was formerly part of the falloW, fer
tile foundation of our great national
agricultural industry, and several mil
lion more such acres in the original
thirteen states of exhausted soil.
He can look to his census records
and find that the average acre pro-
duction of food stuffs from the soil of
the United States has remained al
most stationary for 30 years while our
has increased at a rapid
geometrical ratio, and this in spite of
the fact that so many million acres of
virgin soil have been put under the
pillow within that period. He can fur
Their find, from authentic records, that
the average acre production of grain
is from half to two-thirds less in
this country than it is in several Euro
pean countries under more favorable
climatic and primary soil conditions.
To renew and conserve the primary
fertility of the nations soil, the most
vital basis of its life, and double the
production of the present cultivated
area with a consequent reduction of
the cost of living, and tripled in
crease of rural land credit assets,
would be a mans size conservation
job worth while. Idaho can supply
the means to this end from it's ex-
haustless resources of phosphates
with everything else easily and cheap
ly available in the farmers hand, ac-
cording to the opinion of high author
ity, This would be a much more fit
subject for the consideration of our
national secretaries of the interior and
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1916-03-02

In their present laudable but decid
eddy hampered ambitions for stat
pride and progress, the people of Ida
no are confronted by a definite pros
pect of being permanently disfran
chised out of about two thirds of thei
natural state rights and revenue re
sources, and of being put back in &
federal territory as to the bulk o.
their state area. The most conspieu.
Gus and pressing effort on the part
of the government agents at Washing
ton In this connection Is the promis-
ed early passage of the so-called Fer
ris bill, and other federal leasing bills
which would deprive this state of a
constitutional right that has been
recognized ever since 1t was admitted.
The administration of its water re-
sources, which our courts have al
ways administered and adjudicated,
by not only transferring this inalien-
able state right to exclusive federal
authority, but at the suggestion of a
wealthy Shyloek citizen of Pennsyl-
vania, this law would make the peo-
pie Of Idaho pay millions Of dollars
tribute to Pennsylvania--and other
states-for the use of its own ac-
knowledged resources and exact its
development under an uncertain ten
ure of title administered by national
n hnt.
with the avowed intention of admin
istering AN our other priceless nat
ural resources by permanent owner
ship and leasing system, is subject
that should demand the most vigor-
Gus protest of our citizens and espe-
cially those who are still here that
fought so long and hard for admission
to the union on an equality with the
original thirteen states, condition
that our enabling act guaranteed us.
The conservation policy of the Unit
ed States is based largely on egotism
and avarice. The government seems
to have Invested itself of so many
sources of revenue that it has to pick
on the far western states in an effort
to make up serious deficiency There
isn't any question but that this policy
was induced by the license of vested
interests In resources of this nature,
but after providing an interstate com
merce commission and state utilities
commissions, who operate under the
eyes of critical court of a vitality
interested local public opinion, and
which are so effectively regulating
these predatory inclinations and
promises to continue faithfully at the
job, the conservation features could
be very we'll left to the administra-
ton of the states involved, under re-
strietions If necessary, without bur-
dening their communities with a hoard
of highly expensive national agents
that can only result in duplicating adj
ministrative costs, hamper their in
dustrial progress, and stir up a feeling
of dissatisfaction and unrest among
the people of the public land states in
regard to the abuse of their sovereign
constitutional rights. Idaho is hit
harder and stands to lose more in pro-
portion to its area than any other of
the public land states by the propos-
ed extension of the federal policy of
leasing and controlling everything.
We have the beautifully inconsist-
ent example, according to recent press |!

Bucharest in Grasp of TeutOns.
(BY Associated PreSsl

The fate of Bucharest. apparently
was sealed today, Petrograd admitting
the Rumanian's failure to stop the
Teutonic advance. The Russian war
statement also said the Teutons con-
tinued their advance on Polesoi, 35
miles north of Bucharest, on the oniy
railroad route of retreat for the Ru-
manians now near the beleaguered cap
ital. This threat seemingly means the
speedy evacuation of Bucharest, if the
Rumanians hope to make an effective
retreat by the railroad towards Mol
davia Teuton troops were reported
as being 12 miles south of Buchar-
est yesterday.
Berlin dispatches declared the Ru-
manians in front of Bucharest are
still retreating, and asserted Teuton
forces have crossed the railroad be-
tween Bucharest and Termevist.
Russian attacks in the Carpathians
ard on the Transylvanian border fail
ed, according to Berlin: The Teutons
recaptured their lost positions in the
Danube lowlands today, Russian at
tacks there being repulsed with heavy
losses.
The Teutons claim to have taken
1880 prisoners during the continu-
ance of their Rumanian campaign.
A British attempt to advance east
of the Albert -Warlencourt roads on
the Somme front failed, said Berlin to-
day.
