Provision is made in the law and in the reg- ulations for the use of every resource of every forest reserve. The idea that the making of a forest reserve tles up any resource is wholly and absolutely mistaken. It is true that law now prevents the export of forest reserve timber from the State in which it is cut, but | repeated efforts have been made by the friends | of the forest reserve policy in Congress to change that law, and they will doubtless suc- ceed In the near future. I want to repeat that | i | the forest reserves are for use and that ail their resources are available for development. This 18 true whether we consider the interests | ot California as a whole or of Northern Cali- | fornia alone, or whether we take the narrow- est_local view. Having stated these.general facts about the | reserves. let me take up the specific objections | to the reserves in Northern California, as I | have been able to gather them. Some of these | objections are based on the assumption that the lines of the withdrawals are intended to be those of the permanent reserves, if such are | California, Where Millions of Acres Are Set Aside, and Reasons From Official View Point R B TP SRS \7 created. The fact is that the withdrawals y were made simply to give time for a more \//“ careful examination of the lands, and that ) they were never intended to represent the boundaries of forest reserves. Otherwise the five men from the Bureau of Forestry who are now examining these lands in Northern Cali- fornia would be wasting their time. | In view of the importance to this State | that all phases of the forest reserve question should have all the light pos- sible thrown upon it the views and state- ments of Forester Pinchot are given here- with in full: THE RAILROAD LANDS. Objection—That large areas of land unsuited for forest reserves now owned by the Southern Pacific Rallroad Company have been included | in the withdrawals, that the creation of the reserves will permit the company to exchange these comparatively worthless lands for valu- | able lands elsewhere, and that the surrender of such lands to the Government will injure the county Tevenue by the amount of the taxes pald upon them. Answer—Lands not sultable for forest reserve purposes will not be in- cluded In reserves. But since forest reserv are for permanent use, lands temporarily de- nuded of thelr timber may be very valuable for forest reserve purposes. Brush and chap- | arral are of great importance as protectors of water supply. The benefit to any county from the full conservative use of its resources through the forest reserves will far more than make up for any loss In taxes As shown in its d=alings with the Santa Fe Railroad Com- pany in Arizona, it is the policy of the Gov- | | | ernment to exchange for lands of equal value Where railroad lands are unavoidably included | in forest reserves. Objcction—That large owners of timber lands will denude their lands and then exchange them for valuable timber lands elsewhere, and that here again the counties will lose the taxes. Answer—Taxes on denuded lands un- sulted for agriculture are necessarily - very small. Denuded lands are often very suitable for forest reserve purposes, for the reason given. Where denuded lands are necessarily included within forest reserve boundaries, their | owners are at present given the right to ex- | change for more valuable lands outsi is to be regretted. The friends of serves have repeatedly attempted to exchange to lands of equal value. they should fail, the opportunity valuable timber la y If the timber on th i land now covered with chaparral had been cut under proper regulations, those lands -would carry instead valuable stands of timber and would be permanent sources of weaith to the counties in which they lle. It would have | been immensely to the advantage of every timber county in Northern Californta if such regulations could have been applied from the 1sands of =q wce of happiness.

Kearns in his efforts to defraud the late Jane Canney, | his aunt, keenly feels Murphy's charges, which were made in a suit filed by Mur- phy In the Superior Court Tuesday. He says that they are unjust to him and im- plicated him without any reason or cause. In explaining his connection with the case yesterday Mr. Daggett said: I never was a party t r sches Murphy alleges.

The policy of the Government is distinctly against t { forest reserv: that the lines of the withdraw intended to be the lines of the permanent re- | serves. If lands not now thought suitable for agriculture are proved to be so later on pro- | vision is made for opening such lands to set- | tlement and no harm will have been done by thelr temporary protection. INVESTMENTS CONSIDERED. Objection—That investmen of capital in rail- | roads and power plants would be discouraged. | Answer—The success of power nlants neces- sarily depends on continuous water supply and on the holding of the sofl by the forest to pre- | vent the silting up of reservoirs. Power plants | are much more likely to locate on strea whose headwaters are protected by foresgyre- | I serves than eisewhere. Provision for the right | of way for railroads through forest reserves s made by law, as well as for canals, ditches, | telegraph lines, et So much timber is held in priva.e hands where the railroads are con- templated that the creation of forest reserves would probably not retard their comstruction even if no provision were made for the sale of | forest reserve timber. As it is, the Govern- | ment understands perfectly that timber from certain reglons cannot be cut unless large | bodies are made available at one time, and | the law provides ample means for dealing with this matter. Transportation facilities are very desirable for the successful management of forest. reserves. Objection—That the prolific growth of young trees after cutting makes forest protection un- Answer—It is true that natural is prolific in Northern California, but vast areas of forest land bave been con- verted into chaparral by wasteful cutting fol- lowed by reveated fires. Forestry will keep | such lands producing trees instead of brush. | There Is no question which is the more de- | sirable. Cutting under the principles of for- | estry Is practicable. We know that this is true | because such cutting is actually going on with success under all sorts of conditions in differ- ent parts of the United States and over largs areas. . FLOW OF STREAMS. Objection—That the forest Is unnecessary to regulate the flow of streams, Lut, on the | contrary, wastes the water by absorbing it. Answer—I* has been proved by the experience | of all mankind, not only in the Uuited States | but throughout the world, that the forests | do regulate the streams. This truth is_held | most firmly by the reclamation service of the | United States Geological Survey, which is the best authority on the subject in the United | States. Those who hold that the forest does not regulate the flow of streams or that the Weathered oak library table— thirty dollars Few tables are made better than this one—not many are of more graceful design.

Forty-four ||| agents of the bureau of forestry in Northern | California definitely confirm this view. |~ Objection—That, through insufficient appro- priations or otherwise, the forest reserve ser- Vice is likely to be inefficlent, so that the | people will _suffer. Answer—It is true that there have been many faults in the forest re- | serve service hitherto. Many of those faults | have already been corrected. When the care of the reserves is transferred to the bureau of forestry they will be managed with a full knowledge of local conditions and their value | to the people will steadily improve. Congress | recognizes their usefulness more and more ands it becomes easler vear by year to get appro- priations for forest work. The distinction between forest reserves and natfonal parks should be kept cleariy in mind. A natlonal park is a sort of outdoor museum | of beautiful things. A forest reserve is a factory where wood, water and grass are pro- Quced for the men who need them. Finaily, the forest reserves will check and in the end prevent, forest fires. In other words, the timber tupon them will be used, not destroyed, and it will be succeeded by mors timber to be used in the same way. They will | promote, mot check, the immediate permanent | Gevelopment of the country, but they are op- posed to the flash in the pan policy which Would sacrifice the real good of any region %o a temporary boom with its disastrcus con- sequences.
