ranges.
This increase will be made gradual
ly tor the next three years, until th
charges reach a point equivalent tc
two-thirds of the charges made bj
private owners for grazing stock on
their lands.
Stock associations are being advls
ed of this decision in order that state
meats regarding the views of their
members may be submitted to the
Forester by January 1, 1917, In case
they desire to discuss the matter.
Investigation of rental values from
time to time, says Mr. Cecil has re
vealed that the Government charges
for grazing on the National Forests
.re only one-third of the market
value of the forage. Since timber
and other resources of the National
Forests are sold at their market value
there Is an Increasing demand that
forage resources should be disposed
of in like manner.
The National Forests were created
for the primary purpose of conserv
ing the timber and water supply. The
grazing use of the ranges, which was
found to exist when active control
of the Forests was begun, was treat
ed as a secondary matter and only a
portion of the administrative cost of
handling the. Forests was asked as a
grazing fee.
Since the National Forest states
share in all the receipts from Natlon
alForest business to the extent of 25
per cent, the revenue to these states
will be materially increased by this
decision.
For the fiscal year ending June 30,
1916, the states of Oregon and Wash-
ngton received $32,820.65 as their
share of the grazing receipts from
the National Forests within their bor
ders. Without considering increased
receipts from other Forest resources
this figure would be doubled by the
advance in grazing rates.

ASK RESIGNATION.
Because of the hosing of Jeffer
son Baldwin and James Curtis two
state prisoners, a week ago last
Sunday, the state board of control
at Salem, Tuesday by a unanimous
vote, demanded the resignation of
John W. Minto as warden of the
venltentiary. The board's action
ame after the members had listen
id to a statement from Governo
Wtthycombe denouncing the hosing
.nd recommending the removal of
Ainto. His successor will be chosen
n a few days.
"Sunday, November S, two con.
lets were hosed at the penitentiary
y the authorities," ttald Governor
Wtthycombe in reporting to the
board on an investigation made by
him of the hosing, Monday after
noon at the prison. "When I first
received information of the affair I
ummoned Warden Minto before the
board and we questioned him. He
nade light of the entire matter. He
maintained that it was nothing more
han a 'wetting down,' nothing more
ltan deserved by the very unruly
rlsoners In question.
"Yesterday to determine matters
0 my own satisfaction I went to
he penitentiary and interviewed
Deputy Warden Sherwood, four
guards who particapted in the hosing,
he two convicts hosed and two other
convicts who witnessed at least some
of the proceedings.
The sum total result of this in
v estimation in most conservative form
is as follows: Each man, in turn
was haadicuffed to a cell door, facing
it hfs clothing was left on him, and
the fire hose with full water pres
sure was played on him from a dis
tance of approximately 27 feet, and
from a point approximately 10 feet
higher than the position in which he
which he stood. The stream struck
the subject on the left side, but he
was fastened in such a way that he
could receive practically all of it on
his back. One man was thus hosed
from probably one to three minutes
"The force of tne water as such a
distance, as admitted by the penlten
tiary engineer who assisted in the
hosing would be raScient to knock
a strong man down unless he had
something to back against He stat
es further that the application of
such a stream would be very painful,
even through the clothing and cer

Each prisoner testified that his side
and back was made black and blue by

hibited cuts on his wrists, made by
the handcuffs when his weight fell
upon them.
"After tne nosing tne two men
were left in their cold cells with the
soaking wet clothing on them, for
probably an hour."
"I may further add that I specif
ically stated to Warden Minto, as I
did to his predecessor, that no such

brother the late Harry P. Minto, as
