Washington advices slut that It is
expected the time will probably come
when congress will give an attentive,
ear to what President Roosevelt has
to say on the public land question,
hut until that time arrives the presi
dent will give his views directly to
the people.
At the last session of congress the,
president called attention to the pro
visions of the act of February 25,
1885, prohibiting the erection of
fences on the public domain. He
went so far as to express his opin
ion that the law In Its existing form
works considerable hardship on the
stockmen of the west, and showei
his clear disapproval of the law, but
pointed out that as long as the law
remains on the statute books, he, as
president. Is compelled to see that Its
provisions are enforced.
The president believes that some
fencing of the public domain, might
be rrwrlert on without Injury to any
one: Indeed It Is his opinion that
fencing under proper restrictions
would do more good than harm, nev
ertheless the law prohibits all fencing,
of the public domain, and It is up to
him to see that the law Is enforced.
Every opportunity wns given con
irress to modify the law of 1885; a
law that has been a dead letter for
many, many years, but congress saw
fit to Ignore the question altogether,
and now the president Is going to
prosecute men who are maintaining
fences In defiance of the law. If le
gitimate stock Interests are hurt th
men affected can blame congress;
they cannot blame tho president.
Aside from his determination to
enfr-ree the law, the president Is try
ing to force the hand of congress;
force It by bringing to bear the pres
sure of public opinion. When the,
people of the west fully realize that
the president Is determined they an
very apt to let their senators and con
gressmen know that it is time to
change the law but until public sen
timent Is aroused congress Is not apt
to net.
The administration would like to
see the fencing law modified, but at
tbe same time would like to see a
new law enacted providing for leas
ing the public range. The president
looks nt the grazing problem from
several view points. Primarily, h
believes that the range Is a valuable
asset, and It is only fair that the
government shouhl derive some revei
nue from Its use. Just ns It now de
rives a revenue from Its forests. Sec
ondly, he has become convinced that
under the leasing system the public
range would be perpetuated, and
would not be overgrazed, as has been
done In many instances when no re
strictions were imposed. Thirdly, he
believes that under a leasing system,
the range wars of old days would en
tirely disappear: that the small stock
owner would be . protected against
the cattle baron, and that bloodshed
on the range would become a thing
of the past. He dots not favor a big
tax; merely a nominal sum enough
to pay the cost of administration and
yield n slight revenue In addition.
Under such a system fencing would
he permitted by the men holding
government leases, and had congres
enacted such a law, many a mile of
fence that must now be destroyed
would be allowed to stand. Natural
ly the fence owners, though they be
vIoHters of the law, will feel ag
grieved, but they have no ground
for resentment against the presi
dent. He did what he could to have
the law modified; he would have
beer, glad had congress legalized
funrlng, but congress refused to act,
and now the stockmen must pay the
fiddler. The only way they can get
relief Is to bring pressure to bear on
their representatives In congress, but
It Is now too late to save the fences
