MISREPRESENTED Fight Not Against Forest Re serves. hut Methods of the Forest Service. Mr. Ernest Kuaebel, assistant United States district attorney, lias taken up the forest reserve light for the forest service ami is attempting to make it appear that Colorado stockmen are in a conspiracy to abolish forest reserves. Either through ignorance, or with in tention to miapepreseut, Mr. Knaebel has been interviewed in local papers and makes a number of false statements Colorado stockmen are not fighting forest reserves, hut they are opposed to the methods of the forest service. They beleivo that the forest service is attemp ting to enforce regulations that are il legal and are attempting in the only way that seems possible, to force the matter into court. Under the police laws of Colorado, every laud owner is compelled to fence his lands if he would keep cattle from them. The forest service is attempting to nullify this law by making it a crim inal offence for any stockman to permit his cattle to drift upon a forest reserve. The forest service has not fenced the cattle out and is attempting to make a regulation answer the purpose of a fence There is an important legal question in volved, and as it effect* the very life of the range industry in this state, cattle men insist upon having it determined by the courts. In regard to the Andrew Norrell case from North Park. Mr. Knaebel deliber ately mistakes the facts when he makes it appear that the organized stockmen }<ersuaded Mr. Norrell to violate so as to make a test case. The facts are that Mr Norrell had been arrested twice and had settled both cases, Mr. Knaebel brought this matter before the federal grand jury and had him indicted for permit ting his cattle to drift upon the reserve, in the very cases that had been settled. It was not until then that the state association took up the matter. Mr. Pinehot gave orders when in Den ver to have the case dismissed. The sec retary of the state association begged Mr. Pinehot to permit it to go to trial, offering on the part of the stockmen to go into court on an agreed statement of fact which would not enter into the persecution and injustice- against Nor rel, but would simply deal with the le gal point involved. Mr. Pinehot refus ed. This angered the stockmen of the Western slope, and the combined refus al of a large number of them to take out permits was not for the purpose of fighting the forest service, if possible, to take the mutter into court and enable the stockmen to.discover if the industry in this state could be legally, in the ab sence of authority of Congress, forced to herd their cattle from the forest re serves. We have no desire to do Mr. Knaebel an injustice but his effort to put the stockmen of this state in a false light is resented. Stockmen are law abiding citizens, but when the forest service strikes at the very life of the industry, the stock interests of the most certainly have a right to object, and they will continue to object until the courts, after a*fair hearing, decide that the forest service is all right.—Record-Stockman. Died Suddenly. About 9:60 o’clock Sunday evening Mrs. Black, wife of Charles Black, died suddenly, heart trouble engendered by rheumatism and neuralgia of the stom ach being the cause of death. Some friends had been spending the evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Black, listening to a phonograph. They departed about nine o’clock, after which the family ate a lunch and all seemed to bo feeling .as well as usual. After the lunch Mr. Black repaired to the kitchen to cut kindling for the next mornings lire and while there his wife called to him and he started to see what was wanted, reaching the door in time to see his wife falling from the chair in which she was sitting. Mr. Black summoned help and Dr. Fischer was sent for immediatly, but Mrs. Black was dead before he arrived, death probably having been instantan eous. The death is a peculiarly sad one as it leaves live little children, the eldest nine years of age and the youngest a baby one year of age, without a mother. The home was a happy one and Mr. Black is badly broken up over the sad affair. The children are hardly old enough as yet to realize the extent of their lots, and are being cared for by neighbors until Mr. Black shall decide definitely what he will do. The deceased, whose maiden name was Irena Beardsley, was born in Penn sylvania and was 25 years of age. On November sth 1890 she was mar ried to Charles E. Black at French Creek N. Y. Five years ago they came to the North Park, where they have resided since. The funeral was hold Monday after noon at 2:30 o’clock from the residence of Mr. and Mrs. D. K. Smith, Rev. Trow bridge jonducting the services, and the remains were interred in the Walden cemetery. The heartfelt syinapathy of everyone is extended to the bereaved husband and motherless, little children.
