Jiitehoook says in his nnuu.il re port to congress regarding the Oregon wonderland : "Iiy act of ; congress," approved "t May 22, 190S,the tract of land bounded northbylieJparollelf'4;t'd:grees,',j4 minutes north latitude, south by 42 degrees, , 48"Jniinutos, north latitude, east by tho meridian 123 degrees west longitude, and west by tho meridian 122 degree, 18 cinutee west longi tude, liaring au area of 24 square miles in tho statu of Oregon and in cluding Crater Lako has boon reserved and withdrawn from settlement, oc cupancy, or &lo uuder. tho laws of the United States, aud dedicatciLand set ajiart forever as a publio park or pleasure ground for,tho bouotlt of tho pooplo of tho United States, to be known as Crater Lako National Park. Tho park by said act is placed under tho exclusive control of tho Secretary of tho Interior, who among other things, is authorized to establish rules aud regulations and cause adequate measures to be taken for tho proserva tion of tho natural objects within said park, and also for the protection of tho timber from wanton depredation, tho preservation of all kinds of game and fish, tho punishment of tresiwss ers, tho removal of unlawful omiants and intruders, and tho prevention nnd extinguishment of forest fires. In tho deficiency appropriation act of July 1, N 1U0S, au appropriation of 2,000 for tho protection aud Improve ment of tho park and tho repair and extension of roads therein was made. Thereafter, V. F. Araut of Klamath Falls, Oregon, was appointed Bnxr inteudent of tho reservation, at a compensation of f.100 per annum, and rules nnd regulations for tho govern ment of tho park wero promulgated, and a suitable number of copies there of wero forwarded to tho superintend ent for his guidance and distribution imong tourists iu tho reservation. Tho act setting aside these hinds for park pnrposca differed from tho acts of congress creiitim: other national parks, iu that it provided, among other things, that tho reservation should bo open "to tho location of mining claims and tho working of tho samo.i' It was not believed, however, to be the purpose of this provision to extend the mining laws to tho reservation with out limitation, but. only to authorize tho location and working of mining claims thereon iu such manner as not to interfere with, or prejudicially affect, the general purposo for which tho reservation was established. Tlfo regulations for tho government of the park clearly define tho conditions under, which the privilege is to be exercised. Tho superintendent rcisn-tN that he has established headquarters in tin park at a place known as Hridgo Creek Springs, about six miles from the Crater; that ho visited the lako and the principal camping places iu the re servation, and found a largo number of campers. No forest (Ires wito found burning iu tho reservation, no timber is being cut, or other property in tho park destroyed. Ho states that iu conversation with those canniinii md traveling through the park he finds t lint, there is a strong scutimcul among them in favor of preserving tho natural picturcsipiencss of the reservation and that all are generally disposed in protect rather than lo de stroy. A plan has been approved for the 'instruction of a new mail along the huso of tho Crater Ijtke .Mountain to ihe rim of tho crater, a distance of ap proximately live miles, and work ihereou will b. cnniuieiicrd as soon as weather conditions will jHTinit. Mops liavo also liccii taken looking to tho survey and tho marking of the boundaries of the park. Work tlieroon will be rommenced under the siicr vision of an examiner of surveys of (leucrul Land (lllice as soon as tho surveying season 0iens next spring, and lie vigorously prosecuted thereafter to coinplcl ion. AiU'stinmto of fl.oiHI has In i u sub mitted to congress for the protection and improvement of this rcscrvut ion luring lie next year. SAVK1) A T (iltAVK'S IlltlNK.
