SIDE LIGHT ON ELK SITUATION Editor Independent— I wish to take exception to your editorials published in The Indapand «nt Noe. 8. for I know you have been 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.

It will simply mean that the —[elk herd will be cut down a little nearer the limits of their pasture, the game preserve. 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 troaching has all been done by the elk. For several years past bands of elk have wlnterel in and around upper fields and other fields, on the high bunch grass tost the cattle never pet. but 1 or none of the stock (men have burst into print over it. Wc believe in living and letting live. There is room for toe oik and room for the stock, but the elk should be limited in number. Just as our stock be limited to the area they an allowed to grase oh.
