In the delicate and important task of ad- ministering the forest reserves, which are so vitally necessary to the well being of indus. tries and communities throughout the West, the Government is constantly met by the de- mands of conflicting interests. 1In its endeavor to make the reserves as useful as possible to all the people these interests must be most efully considered the region about a ticular reserve, grazing may*be the . important industry, and therefore the first to be protected and conserved, 1In another, stock ralsing of other kinds ma predominate. In the great majority, the interests of the small rancher and the irrigator come first. In each case it is essential that the administra- tion of the reserve should meet the needs of the peopie, and that each reserve should be given its highest possille present usefulness, while protecting with the greatest care its con- tinved utility to the community.

Be ate on the report of the com- afternoon session an amendment to majority report was made, the plan of State comm! exists in Utah, to work with the Government in the great irrig: tion projects. Resolutions of thanks to the Oregon Short Line for its courtesies commending fons, such as and to Utah, the city of Ogden and the | press were also adopted. A motion to limit the time of debate to three speakers on each side, givi minutes, was adopted. Former Congressman Shafroth of Colo- rado opencd the debate in a speech gainst the repeal of the land laws as embodied in the majority report of the on resolutions. SUBSTITUTE ADOPTED. Shafroth was followed by Attorney General Donovan of Montana in favor of the majority report. Congressman Mon- dell of Wyoming followed in the negative and William E. Smythe of Los Angeles in the affirmative. Colonel John P. Irish, against the report, and George S. Max- well of Chicago, in its favor, closed_the formal debate. Under the five-minute rule W. T. Johnson of Colorado, G. L. Miller of Kansas, Congressman French of Idaho and former Senator Carey of Wy- oming spoke against the majority report. D. Clark Gapen of Wisconsin, Colonel Graves of Minnesota, Congressman Reeder of Kansas and Senator Gibson of Montana spoke in its favor. Congress- man Needham of California offered a substitute for both reports, as follows: Whereas, the timber and stone act, the desert land law and the commutation clause of the homestead act have in many instances in their administration been found to resuit | in speculation and In monopoly of the public domain to the exclusion of actual home build- ing, therefore, be it Hesolved, that we request the Congress of the United States to make such modifications in said laws as will save the remaining pub- lic land for actual settlers who will found homes and live upon said lands.

It is further un- the holdings of Timothy Hopkins and the other associates with him. WAGON ROADS ARE BUILT. The company is the natural successor of the syndicate which disposed of the Big | Basin grant to the State of California. Having cut nearly all the timber in the | Boulder Creek region, except that con- tained in the 3900 acres sold to the State, the syndicate either had to quit business or seek new fields.' As it happened the Boulder Creek logging rallroad reached | | within a few miles of the San Ma.eo | County line and the headwaters of Pes- | cadero Creek and all that was necessary | for the members of the syndicate to do | was to move their outfits over the ridge | separating Boulder Creek from Pesca- | dero Creek and to begin operations in the | This they have done. They have buiit County line and to a point in the south- eastern corner of section 22 on Waterman Creek. Here they have instailed one of the most complete lumber plants in Cal- ifornia. A dam has been placed across Water- man Creek and a good sized mill pond created. The mill is located on the sidehill above this pond. No longer are the logs hauled to the mill by teams of | gigantic oxen. A good sized donkey en- gine at the énd of a skidway is equlpped with two immense cylinders, upon which wire cables are colled. The light cable is intended for hauling the heavy cable out | to the end of the skidway, which may be a mile away up some gulch. The heavy cable is then made fast to a row of im- mense logs fastened end to end by iron chalns. - A signal is given by the man in charge of the log train, which at once begins its journey to the mill. At a cer- tain point the logs are uncoupled and rolled into the milipond. A steam eleva- tor quickly ralses the logs to the mill, in which they are rapidly cut into board measure. The mill has a capacity of | 60,000 feet per day. MACHINERY IS INSTALLED. At the present time the machinery has been imstalled and is being run for the purpose of manufacturing lumber with which to erect the superstructure of the mill itself.

It is commonly reported in the Pescadero region that this same company proposes to establish other mills farther down the valley and that the wagon road survey has been inade with a view to rendering the sites of such new mills available.
