The administration of forestry laws fell in for a large amount of discus sion. The general forestry policy of the Government was commended, but severely criticized on account of the hardship and Injustice to sheepmen arising from the Incompetency of sub ordinate officers In the field. This criticism against ' two supervisors, namely. Supervisor Schmidt, of the Wenaha reserve, and A. S. Creeland, of the Western ' Division of the Blue Mountain Reserve, was so great as to warrant the convention In asking the Forest Bureau for their removal. The recommendation of President Burgess, !n his opening speech, regard ing advisory boards, was adopted. These boards, formed In each division of the reserves from the allotees there in are for the purpose of co-operating with the forest officers In charge; to hear any complaints that sheepmen may make, and. If possible, to adjust them with the supervisor or, falling In this, to properly present them to the Forest Bureau at Washington. The East and West Divisions of the Blue Mountain Reserve, also the North Di vision of the Cascade Reserve, already have these boards, Monte B. Gwlnn, of Pendleton, being the member of the first-named board to represent Mal heur and Harney Counties (with two members from Umatilla and two from Morrow Counties to be named). F.
