Continued from first page
field, John-ion )nnd Ragsdale, during
which the follow iug points were brought
out :
Range rates, now excessive, are
increasing. , ,
Rates are 16 cents for eight months,
and same price for a year:
Ko county has so much open bunch
grass country in the reserve as has
Wallowa.
Stockmen in Wallowa pay far more
in dues, than the cost of conserving
the fofes reserves they use. The sur
plus goes to other states.
Wallowa county sheep are now and
ever have been free front scab and other
diseases.
After the appointment of Messrs.
Falconer, Beith . and ' Johnson as a
committee on resolutions the meeting
adjourned for dinner. There was even
a larger number present in the after
noon. The committee reported the fol
lowing t i
Eesolutiom:
Mr. Chairman: We your committee
on resolutions submit the following for
your consideration :
Eelieving that the Department of
Forestry which has in charge the super
vision of the public range, is ready and
anxious at all times to learn the wishes
of the stockmen and to know of any in
justice worked upon'them by reason of
any rule and regulations in force by
fthe department, and believing that the
department is quick to remedy any such
rule or regulation which will not work
permanent injury to the purpose of the
Federal control of the forests, and
Whereas, the said Forestry depart
ment rents the ranee in use by the
Wallowa county sheepmen at 16c per
head by the year , and
Whereas, there will be 125,000 head
of sheep from Wallowa county on the
reserve the coming year, and
Whereas, to pay the assessment on
the number of sheep it will take $14,000
cash from the sheepmen at a time,
April 15th, when the sheepraiser needs
his ready money for lambing and other
purposes, and at a time that under or
dinary conditions, money is scarce with
sheepmen, especially in Wallowa coun
ty, essentially a stock country, and
where the greater part of the money in
circulation is the produce of the stock
buhiness, and
Whereas, there is a money panlo of
no small moment prevalent in all parts
of the United States, and
Whereas, in view of the , aforesaid
conditions it will bo almost impossible
for the sheepmen to pay the assess
ments due April 15th, and
W hereas, the inability of the hep
men in Wallowa county to pay the
a66esfments the coming season at the
time they become due will deprive 125,-
000 sheep of range and result in great
loss not only to tiie sheepmen but to
tlje community at large, therefore be it
Resolved, that this association request
the Department of Forestry to change
the time of payment of fees from the
aforesaid date to August 1st, the latter
date being at a time when the sheep
men will have realized from the wool
clip.
- And whereas, the fee of 16c per head
assessed against sheepmen of Wallowa
county, Oregon, is excessive and dis
criminating, and unfair as compared
with the fee assessed against cattle and
horsemen, therefore, be it further
Resolved, that the Department be re
quested to reduce the fee (assessed
against sheepmen to a more equitable
basis. Be it further ,
Resolved, that the Department be re
quested to compel the. cattlemen to
keep their cattle on their own allot
ment, and that as fast as practical tiiat
that the Department establish and
maintain drift fences to accomplish that
end. Be it furth $
Resolved, that cattle shall not be a'
lowed (except ou mutual range) to
drift from their summer and fall rangi
over the sheep ranee in going to their
winter range, aud that they be required
to drive their stock to range under ti e
same restrictions that are applied to
heepmen in going to and from their
raifge. Be it further
Kesoivea, tnac a copy ot tuese resoiu
Take ONE
ft! Of Ihe Utile Tablets
of the Little Tablets
and the Pain
tions be forwarded to the Department
through Mr. Howard O'Brien, Forest
Supervisor; that a copy be f ent to each
of the Representatives and Senators in
Congress from Oregon, and t hat a copy
he sent to each of the five papers pub
lished in the conntv. and that a copy
be kept aa part of the records of the
association.
Respectfully submitted by yoni com
mittee. '
Fred V. Falconer, Chairman ; Wajter
G. Beith, L. C. Johnson.
The resolutions were unanimously
adopted.
The Association took further actfon
as follows: That the present bounty cf
1 1 50 on all coyotes killed south of
Orande Rondo river in Wallowa county,
be extended from Nov. 15, 1907, to
August 1, 1903, and that all warrants
be made payable on and after August 1,
1908, and that an assessment of 3o
per head be made on all sheep in Wal
lowa county. They also appointed a
committee to call upon the county
court for the purpose of securing ap
propriation of sufficient amount to raise
the bounty from f 1.50 to $2.00 per head.
The sheepmen believe they are entitled
to this in view of the fact that a large
amount of money at one time was paid
into the county treasury for the "p ur
pose of destroying coyotes but was
never paid out for that purpose.
On motion, President Dobbin was
authorized to appoint an advisory board
of five members to represent the associ
ation in matters before the forestry
office.
Jay H. Dobbin was re-elected presi
dent, W. H. Graves vice president,
Thomas Morgan secretary, and Will
Stickney treasurer.
Join State Association.
Twenty-two joined the state associ
ation, each paying $2 yearly dues, and
an assessment of $ 2 per thousand sheep
sheared last June. The sum of $257.15
was paid in and sent to the secretary
of the state body.
