Tho5e cert1flcntc arc similar in form anti none of them show that the perty represented 113 having held a state convention at the last general election "polled at lea3t 1 per cent the entire rote In this state , " which Is the wording of the statute authorizing po. litical parties to be represented on the bai- lot. This Is a mntter upon which there is ' much tilsagreement. While It Is admitted that the democrats anti populists cast more than the required per cent of the total num- her of votet , there Is nothing of record to prove this and the secretary of state , In the t absence of some showing of the number of totes east by any one of the parties. Is dotibttul 35 ; to his duty In the premises bould a protest be flied. ! o far as the of. tidal record Is concerned it was possible for all of the democrats to have voted the i'opulist ticket. or vice versa , without affecting - fecting the general result. and the secretary has nothing to show what proportion of the Vote each party cast. The matter is In dis- 2)UtP between the populists and democrats , cach party claiming to have furnished the argcr number of votes , but neither being able to produce any figures. 1p to date no one has hart the temerity to claim that the ° silver republican" ticket received over 2- 000 votes at the last general election , and : the required per cent would be above that fIgure. 'ct the sliver republicans have cer- titled In their candidates and expect to occupy - cupy a place on the ticket. Si I vt-r itcinhlil i'ZIIIP SIi . Another qUe3tiofl that is brought forward along this lint is Just what the law contemplated - plated about the size of state conventions. I specifies that in the organization of a V new party there must be at least 200 elert- . , nra participating in the state Convention. t/ otbing is said about the number required at future conventions. The secretaries of the silver republican Convention of 1S97 were able to certify that there were over 200 delegates present at the state convention. although the participation on the part of that many actual delegates has always been doubted. This year ( be largest number of delegates the silver republicans were able to muster at their state convention was 116 and most of the time the number fell far below that figure. One whole congressional district was unrepresented. and of those present at the convention fully 25 per cent 'ere from Lancaster county. Yet the party claims a legal status and by its certiOcate to the secretary of state asks for a place on the olilcial ballot. The state superintendent is quite sure that there is something wrong with the post- office tIeartmcnt at Denver. Today he re- cetvctl from there a letter that had been wrttten by State Superintendent George 13. l.lfle on September 20 , 1S0. and which wa addrezsed to 'Ed Price. Denver , Cob. " The poltmarks showed that the letter was mailed at the Lincoln ofee the sante day it was written and that it was received by the ] ) enver otfice on the following day. The nest postmark is dated August ) , 1S9S. when the Denver ounce returned the letter to the writer as "unclaimed. ' This shows that it was held In the Denver office for eight years. which is regarded as an unusually long time for a letter to await a claim- ant. ( best Ion i it I Ilsnrnhiee l'rnel ice.

DENVER , Aug. h1.-Speclal.-The ( ) appointment - pointment of Colonel \V. T. S. May of this city as superintendent of forestry in the United States means a new deal In the mat- Icr of preserving forests In this part of the country. Within a week or ten days a ays tern of forestry police will be in operation , with every reservation in this state and Utah closely guarded by the ernpboyes of Uncle Sam , who will permit no violation 'usbatevcr of the act of February 24. 1S7 , , in which provisions are made for the pro. tection and preservation of the forest that bias not already been damaged or wiped out by fire. The sheep raising industry will be most affected by this new method of procedure. I The grazing lands in Colorado are nearly all in the forest reservations hich are I trader jurisdiction of the government. hun- .lreds of thousands of sheep that have here- tofore grazed on Colorado lands will be ex- eluded and the owners put to more or less inconvenience. At Tennessee pass alone , just above Leadville , there are from 50.000 to 100.000 sheep fed every year. The conditions - ditions are such that it Is deemed best for the country to keep these out of that tern- tory. In the states \\'ashington and Oregon - gen , where most of the Colorado sheep come from , the moisture Is so profuse that the soil Is more reproductive of grass. There the law permits sheep grazing anywhere and at any time. The conditions are differ. eat In Colorado. The climate being dry , grass is slow to propagate , and when once trodden down becomes a barren waste. In the grazing lands every winter finds the ground smooth and barren where the grass was profuse during the balmy months. It is a well known fact that sheep play havoc with every form of vegetation they have access to. The Denver. Kansas City , Omaha and Chi.- cage dealers in sheep have heretofore purchased - chased feeders in Oregon and Washington at about $1.50 per head , driving them to Colorado and Utah , where they feed them preparatory ( or the market. where the money doubles in the fall. hluxndreds of thousands of sheep feed in Colorado every year. At Tennessee pass last year two well known firms fed 60.000. and In various other parts of the state the numbers ranged as high. All this wIll be abolished , and the owners compelled to seek land not in the forest reservations , which is very scarce and not fit for grazing , or keep their stock further west , paying heavier freight wben shipping time comes. This , it is predicted , will materially affect the wool market , as well as other branches fed by the sheep-raising Industry. Forests inst lie Saveil. Realizing that the west has also suffered untold tosses from forest fires during the past few years , and the urgent need for some remedy. the Interior department has a plan by which further catastrophes and forest depredations will be prevented to a great extent. An effort will be made to remove the dangers altogether. Secretary Bliss of the Interior depart- meat evolved the plan and is fast putting it into operation.'ith the aid of an appropriation - propriation of 50,000 by the last congress the work is going on nicely , and this fall It is hoped that Colorado and other western States will be saved the unpleasantness of receiving the bad news of extensive forest fires. Heretofore the state has lost heavily through this source. Forest fires every fall for several years past have materially decreased the supply of timber. and with a continuation of the circumstances for a few more years the state would soon become devoid of any growth of consequence. There are yet to be appointed four in- specters of forests and twelve patrolmen or forest rangers. The latter will be well mounted and have extensive patrol duties , One commissioner has been appointed. The inspectors. or commissioners , will keep posted on the conditions of the various secttOfl3 and have any threotening wrong righted. The guards ride about the country - try in search of offenders and dangerous conditions and are to be generally used under their superior officers in the preserva. tions of the forests. Colonel May will have the supervision of the work all over this state and Utah. The salary of the inspector is to be 5 a day and of the guards $50 per month. The benefits of this new enterprise are not doubted anywhere. The memorable forest - est fires near Aspen four years ago , during which hundreds of acres of land were laid waste and black , while the people were powerless to protect their homes and land , will long be remembered by those inter- eated. In many other localities there are the black swaths cut by the red tongues. thousands of dollars worth of valuable tim. ber land being consumed. The forests of Colorado are of that nature which easily ignite. The dry climate is conducive to the tinder-like state of the timber and itt the fall when the woods are dry a camp fire , or perhaps the sparks from one that is left for dead , can start a conflagration that reaps a harvest of ruin. Watch Clip Camping Parties. No campfires will be allowed close to inflammable - flammable material and with the new sys- tern the government will know almost every party in the state. its location. place of entering - tering the forests and all other details likely to be of service. Fires and sheep herders are not the only persons who will have to look sharp for the rangers. Hardly a camping party goes out that trees are not defaced in some manner , or fires are built too close to inflammable material. The malicious chopping of trees or in any other manner defacing the government - ernment land will render the offender smedable to the law on a serious charge. The commissioners will reside in their respectIve territories. Captain S. II. Stan. nard has been appointed the commissioner for the district about Denver. lie received his appointment from the superintendent this morning , when that of Colonel May ar- rIveI. The other commissioners have not been olfleially notified. but it Is known that one resides at each of the following places : Fort Collins , Pueblo , Garfield county. El Paso county. Colonel May will hurriedly send appointments tg several rangers in those localities where forest fires are most likely to occur , and says that in less than ten days the service will be complete and in active oneratloo. the rangers anti inspectOrs - spectOrs being in the fIeld. The jurisdic- lion of Colonel May extends over Utah , but be has but vague information at present relative to the districts and existing cm. cumstances in that state. Colorado will be protected at once. and as rapilly as possible steps wll : be taken for the establishment of the service in the sister state. There are five forestry reserves in Cob- rado , Three of them , the South Platte , Plum Creek and I'ike's peak reserves. embrace - brace p portion of the following counties. the three districts being contiguous El Paso.
