FOREST SERVICE DOES NOT
UUS .OPPOSE MljYJNG jCLAI MS
It Is ledrueu'Trbni'an'authft'rlfallve
source that a Washington dispatch
which nppoared rccontly. conlaJnod
orroneous statements. Tho dispatch
in question related to the activities
of Congressman Hnwlor before the
land office Jn the mattor of pntonts
for mining claims. No opposition to
mlniug entries has developed on tho
part of the forest service. If there
Is any antagonism between tho min
ing Interests and the forestry bureau
such as is indicated by tho Wash
ington dispatch mining men la this
locality aro unawaro of it. On the
contrary, the mining community rec
ognizes tho fact that but for the
national forest, prospecting in the
western country, and tho holding of
mining claims would be ended. All
of tho remaining open land is sub
ject to entry under tho homestead
or timber and stone acts. It has fre
quently boen proven in Boutuern
Oregon that entries arc suddenly
made under these acts so soon as
mineral has been ppaned on any gov
ernment land, and tlioso entrlca arc
Invariably sustained. An attack on
the forest sorvlco is an attack on
tho minors and will bo made by no
friend of tho prospector.
No statement has over emanated
from any one in authority to the
affect that work will bo started as a
result of Issuance of patent to the
claims montioned in the dispatch
Proceedings beforo tho land office
have to be worked out on thoir raor-
its under tho law. Tho imputation
that any other consideration what
ever could enter, if regarded serious
ly by any one concerned, would be
resontcd.
