Forestry and Publicity. During the past few months a number of articles in support of the forest policy of Chief Forest- er Giford Pinchot have been seat broadcast throughout the country by the associated and United Press associations and have tippeared in most of the newspapers and some of the magazines of the country es news items. These items yery often contain serious charges against the west- ern people, particularly those seeking to enter the public lands, citithe Assumption that these set- tlers are land grabbers, thieves, etc., and it serious reflection upon a large element of the best citizen- ship of Montana. In the light . of the situation le- cella). developed at Washington, 14 is made manifest that these articles have been inspired by etn- ployes in the forestry bureau, un- der Mr. Pinchot, with the , evi- dent intention OI creating public sentiment in favor of the so-called Pinchot policy as against any poli- cy that President Taft may have with reference to the conserva- tion of the natural resources of the country. While the policy of conserva- tion is a splendid one, and is here to stay, yet the same should be carried on with due regard for the law, and the rights of individuals, but the policy of Mr. Pinchot has been in almost total disregard of settlers and those holding mining intereste in the reserves, upon the essumption, as suggested by ti e published articles in question, that these settlers, and . owners of mining intermits were trespassers, a ithout rights and not entitled to considtlation under the law. Such a policy is unquestionably preju- dicial to the interest. , of this clams of people, and in a large measure tends to retard the legitimate set- tlement and development of • large portion of Montana. These articles, emanating from the source above suggested, are, in the - light of recent develep- [Dente not only reflections upon the citizens of . Montana, but are direct attacks ti pow the administ rut - futation, lends color to the merit of the charges made, and, to a more or less extent. influences the minds of dint portion of our citizenship here in Montana not familiar with the actual facts and conditions. I am satisfied beyond a question of doubt that, the conservation policy of President Taft, when announced will be found to be as near right as it is possible to make it. with the rights of the general public fully protected, and, at the same time, with due regard to the legal and equitable rights of those directly affected by the policy. —J. A., in Daily Record MONTANA LANDS. More Than a Million Acres Soon to be Opened to Settlers. S. J. ‘1 . ikon, general passenger agent of the Great Northern Rail- way company, has notified all agents and general and traveling representatives that by order ef Richard A. Ballinger, secretary of the interior, about 1.400.000 acres of land in Valley county, eastern Montana, known as the \Rocky Boy Indian Lands,\will be thrown open to white settlers March 1, 1910, and will be subject to both settlement and entry March 81 and thereafter.
