The meeting called by Forest
Superintendent Sheller for all
stockmen interested in the Hepp
ner forest reserve, in this city was
attended by a large number of
stockmen.
Umatilla, Grant, Wheeler and
Gilham counties as well as Mor
row county, in which the greatest
interest centers were well represented.
About 200 sheep and cattle own
ers were present. V hue the meet
ing of a public nature was only of
few hours duration, still there is a
area amount of basiness to be
ransacted and most of the stock
men are still in the city in attend
ng to the applications for permits
for grazing purposes and also the
allotment, trail privileges and the
thousand one grievances and ques-
ions that naturally arise where so
many are interested.
In Mr. Sheller's opening ad
dress at the court bouse an outline
of the forest reserve policy was
given out in which the forest su
perintendent stated that it was the
intent to help out the stock inter
ests as much as possible by deal
ing out the grass privileges fairly
and judiciously.
The main object of the meeting
was to get the stockmen together.
While many are interested in the
actual allotment of the Heppner
reserve grass, there are many oth
ers who use other ranges but have
been passing through the Heppner
withdrawal and of course a con
tinuation of trail privileges.
The two committees of six mem
bers each representing both the
sheep and cattle interests have im
portant labors as well as responsi
bilities of no little consequence.
Tbe committees have been work
ing Hard in taking m the situa
tion and the very difficult problem
of making recommpndAtinns fnr
the equitable allotment of the
grass.
Upon the recommendations of
these committees the forest super-
ntendent w ill use as a working
basis and will be a great aid in ac
quainting the superintendent with
the facts and conditions in deter
mine individual rights
The meeting was called to order
at 9:15 o'clock Tuesday morning at
the court house by Superintendent
Sheller.
After Mr. Sheller's opening re
mirks a petition was read by Wm.
Barret asking for trail nrivilppp-
The petition created a storm of op
position coming principally from
the cattle interests.
This started the ball to rolling
in good shape and there was con
siderable controversy.
A flood of questions were asked
of Mr. Sheller nearly all of which
are answered in the.use book fui
distribution.
A petition was read by H. A.
Murpby, of Monument, from the
Grant County Stock Association
asking for rane privileges.
The question of taking wood
from forest reserves was introduced
and several questions were asked.
Mr. Sheller stated that in order
to get wool from the reserve it was
necessary to at first obtain a per
mit which woulj enlit'e the holder
to dead timber to the value of $20
fur his own use.
The question of grazing privi
leges for a short time in the spring
and fall by sheepmen while trail
ing through brough out another
Btornrirom the cattlemen.
R. F. Hynd moved that com
mittees to represent the cattle and
sheep interests be appointed.
The committees appointed are
as follows;
Sheepmen C. A. Minor, John
Kilkenny, V. B. Barratt, W. Wr,
Steiwer, T. J. Merrill and Geo.
Perry.
Cattlemen J. D. French, Ge--.
Horseman, L. B. GilmaD, L. A
Miller, R. J. Carsner and J. H,
Wyland.
The indications are that the re
serve will ba divided into two di
visions to be known as the Eastern
and Western with the Hardman-
Monument wagon road as the di
viding line.
