Hon. J. H. Albert In the following
communication:
"Owing to the failure of the city
of Portland and of the Historical so
ciety of Oregon to meet the require
ments of the law authorizing I lie Lewis
and Clark commission to, In Its discre
tion, deliver to them the forestry
building erected by the Bald commis
sion upon the Lewis and Clark exposi
tion grounds, I suggest that steps be
taken by your board to have the
unique building taken down and mov
ed to the state fair grounds to con
stitute with Its contents a permanent
state forestry exhibit.
"If placed near and facing the
Southern Pacific railroad track It
would be an attraction which might
be deemed so profitable to the South
ern Pacific company as to Induce
them to give materlul encouragement
to the enterprise. Indeed, by co-operation
on the part of your board, the
Southern Pacific company and the
Lewis and Clark commission, I believe
Its removal can be accomplished."
A committee consisting of President
Downing, W. F. Matlock and Frank
Lee was appointed to take the mat
ter up with the railroad company and
the Lewis and Clark people and ascer
tain the probable cost of moving and
rebuilding the structure, also to as
certain If the owners of the ground
upon which It stands will allow It to
remain htere Until the next session of
the legislature, when it may be pos
sible to obtain an appropriation to
carry out the project.

RANGE IS DIVIDED.
Amicable Settlement Between Sheen
men and Cattle Men.
Contrary to the predictions of many
the division of the range In the We
naha forest reserve between the sheep
and cattle interests was not attended
by any serious disagreement.
An amicable understanding litis ,
been reached and the committee of :
2 appointed to divide the range has
reproted to the chief ranger as follows:
To the Hon. Supervisor and Ranger
In Charge:
"We beg to submit the attached re-;
ports of the actions of the committee j
by Its various sub-committees on the
matter of apportioning the range 1
within tho Wenaha reserve between.:
the sheepmen and cattle men.
'We have In the various sub-com
mittees called In the stockmen Inter
ested In said reserve and acted as
nearly and properly according to the i
respective Interests as It Is possible
for us to do. We have apportioned
every portion of the reserve among
the men and the arrangements In most
Instances meets the general approval
of all . concerned. We, , as you may
know, have had a hard time In agree
ing, but have eventually done so.
"We find that there has been ranged
during the past year on the entire re
serve to the number of 276,980 sheep
and It Is deemed advisable to range
for the coming year 200,000, that the
general average taken throughout the
reserve of the Increase of lands Is
82 1-2 per cent.
"We further find that during the
past year there has been ranged on
the reserve 18.608 cattle and recom
mend that 18,750 head be allowed In
the reserve for the comnlg season.
"We have In a general way desig
nated on a map, which we file here
with, the lines between the sheep and
cattle ranges, but, owing to the lnac
curacies of the maps at the disposal
of the committee, as well as a lack of
knowledge of the country by sections,
township and ranges, we have deemed
It advisable and necessary to particu
larly describe In this report In full
the entire reserve as apportioned
Tho report la duly made a part here
of and attached hereto.
"We think the committee was com
posed of representative men who are
acquainted with tho entire reserve and
we have acted throughout with a
spirit of fairness between the rival
stock Interests, and as well have taken
Into consideration the betterment of
j the range, all the committee have
I recommended less stock that hns
i been grazing on the reserve. We ap-
! nrehend that tho reserve Is the one
salvation of the livestock business In
this country and we bespeak the men
we represent In saying that we shall
do all In our imiver to assist In pro
tecting the rantre.

Petrified Fore.
Elmer Forshay's corps of surveyors
ran Into a petrified forest last week
while making the survey for the
South Side ditch. Some beautiful
specimens were found of agatlte wood
some had the gleam of opals, others
resempled oynx. and from one glis
tened brilliant red and green and pur
ple, says the Emmett (Idaho) Index.
Through nearly all the specimens
there runs a vein of Jet black, closely
resembling polished ebony. One large
piece was brought In that had the
appearance of a decayed log, but It
was so hard that a hammer was nec
essary to break It. The grain of the
wood and even the knots could be
plainly seen. The petrifications were
found In a gulch about half a mile
couth of the West fruit farm, east of
town.
