The forest Reserve fund took up »
great deal[ of time at the )ast session
of the legislator, arid ..many rnombcr#
from tho other divisions expressed
the hope that the matter would be
. definitely dotermiued by the courts
so that M would net .agitate future
Legislatures. Whiles I believe, the
present case is brought on behalf of
nil of the me’mbets of, the past Leg
islature from the first Division, yet
from expressions that . were common
befose i, left. Juiuruu I feet satisfied
Dint some, Q»e, w.puld bring this suit.

be derived f^ptn, its own forests amt

prevailing .1 da. not Dunk the Board
of Alaska .Read Commissioners will
deny this divjsioir.the few thousand
dollars set aside.. Of the amount of
nearly $3,000,000 expended -by the
