Editor Independent—
I wish to take exception to your
editorials published in The Indapand

misinformed as to the condition exist
1 mg In the county adjacent to the
River Elk pr es e rv e in the northern
Prince!pa« of Lewis and dark county. This
preserve was created some 16 years
or more as grasing ground for
elk, and no other animals are ever
allowed to cross it. At that time
one'there were probably a few hundred
head of elk in that territory. Since
that time the herd has increased to
2 or 8 thousand, and the natural re
salt is that the elk are now eneroach
ing on the lands set aside for Û»
stodhpen, instead of the stock gras
ing on elk territory,'a* you aver.

nearer the limits of their pasture, the

I. among many others, have been
grating cattle on the forest reserve
adjacent to the preserve over fcO
years, and we have never encroached
on any elk territory. In fact the en

elk. For several years past bands
of elk have wlnterel in and around

There is room for toe oik and room
