Interest in the presidential prim-
airy election, which is now only a
few DAYS away, is rcallv beginning
to warm up and the closing days of
the campaign are making it pos
siblc to determine with some degree
of accuracy the possible chances of
the various candidates.
This is particularly true ON the
Democratic ticket, where there are
three candidatcs,--all waging an ac.
tive campaign to capture the Cali
fornia delegation to the Houston
convention.
Outside of tho large cities in the
northern part of the state, where
the sO-callcd wet candidate is re-
ceiving considerable publicity, Sen
ator James A.. Reed of Missouri
seems to be the outstanding randi.
date, and although little late in
getting actively into the campaign,
he appears to be gaining strength
every daV, This is particularly true
in the smaller cities and in the rural
districts.
Recognized today as the out
standing Democrat in Washington,
d. c., and with Il record of actual
accomplishment that is a credit to
himself and his party, the Missouri
Senator seems to more truly repre-,
sent the Democratic party than any
candldat" vet announced. HIS ac
tive support of Legislation affecting
cX,seVic" men and their dcpeu-
dents is giving him the hearty sup
port of those organizations.
Senator Reed has a remarkable
political record. starting with his
election as prosecuting attorney of
jackson county, Missouri He was
elected mayor of Kansas City for
two terms. In 1910 he was elected
United States Senator from Miss.
ouri for the first time for the G-ycar
term, and was reelected in 1916. In
1922 he was renominated and de-
featcd his Republican opponent 10y
nearly j0,0G0 votes. lie is IA mem.
Der Of many important Senate com.
mittccs, and has record of never
having been defeated by popular
vote.

tionary stock and his ancestry is

FORESTS LOSE
OUT ON GRAZING
COST OF ADMINISTRATION GREATER
THAN FEES COLLECTED ASSERTS
DISTRICT SUPERVISOR

Statements that the federal govern
ment Will reap a large pront from graz
ing fees. after the contemplated In
creases I'm rates are put into effect, are
false, Fred Morrell. district forester
says. MIN the fun increase In rates
Is I'm effect the revenue received Will
be but slightly. II at all, greater than
the expenses incident TO handling the
work, he said.
Total receipts for grazing on the ma
tional forests of Montana are now about
sl2i 900 annually. says Mr.. Morrell. and
| when the contemplated changes are fully
effective in 1881 they Will amount to ap-
proximately sl68. 900. Twenty-Five per
cent OF this amount is returned to the
counties and 10 per cent is spent on
roads and trails. leaving a net income to
the federal treasury after the increase
becomes effective of about $4,000. AS
against this. 1t is costing the federal
government for handling the grazing
business. for regulating the use Of the
range TO prevent overgrazing and injury
TO timber growth. n for range surveys
and improvements. about $4,000 O year.
stock is counted TO prevent excess in
numbers IL unfair participation In
range privileges. Sailing plans must be
worked out and enforced as an aid to
distribution of stock on the range and
TO secure uniform utilization OF the for
age. Frequent inspections of the range
are made by forest officers to check range
conditions. These also cost n but
likewise are returned full measure in
benefits to range users In fatter stock
and assurance OF a highly productive and
permanent range.
When the increased fees become fully
effective AND the range surveys and i'm
provements have been completed, the re-
turns from grazing should yield a net
profit to the government. 1t is but fail
that all who use the forests for CONNER
cial purposes pay the fair commercial
value Of the products obtained. Any net
profit which may be derived from grazing
fees, timber sales, or special uses, over
the cost OF handling these particular
lines of work, is needed to offset the cost
OF protecting the forests from fire and of
preserving the watersheds so essential to
stockmen and irrigationists."
