Uesscy of the University of Ne braska this afternoon obtained from Gov ernor Savage an ofTtclnl approval of the proposition to have tho government create thrco permanent forest reserves In this state. This Idea originated with Dr. Dcssey over fifteen years ago and recently has re ceived not only favorable consideration, but hearty support by the Itureau of Forestry of tho Department of Agriculture. Dr. Dcssey first experimented with somo sandhill land In Holt county and found that trees could bo grown successfully In soil that Is generally believed to bo worthless. Tho success of his undertaking was brought to tho attention of tho Department of Agri culture and after several years of corre spondence a representative was sent to Ne braska to Investigates tho claims made, which seemed entirely too extravagant to b' worthy of oven serious consideration nt that time. Last year W, L. Hall of tho nurcau of Forestry travelod over most of tho western and northern sections of tho stato with a view to determining whether or not trees could bo grown In the sandhills. Ho wns assisted by Dr. Dcssey and soon became convinced that tho sandy portion of tho stato was cnpablo of producing good trees. Sinco then tho matter has been agitated moro vigorously than over, nnd It la now proposed to crcato thrco permanent roscrves, to bo stnrtcd and maintained by the gov ernment. Governor Savago has had tho matter under consideration several weeks nnd this afternoon, after an extended con sultation with Dr. Dcssey, dictated a letter to tho Nebraska delegation In congress asking them to support tho movement. Tho rescrvo may bo crriitcd In two ways. Ono Is by act of congress nnd tho other Is by presidential proclamation. Tho latter courso has been chosen and President Roosevelt will soon bo aBkcd to tako tho necessary steps. Tho land used will bo only that now owned by tho government. henco no person will bo deprived of his property. Territory "Recommended.

FEES NOT AS MUCH AS SALARY llonril nf .tiiiprvlors Confronted with !Veir rrohlem While CliccUlim County Hooks. BEATRICE. Neb., Jan. 27. (Special.) Tho Board of Supervisors in checking up the county offices, and settling with tho outgoing officers, hab been confronted with a new problem, which has heretofore not been considered. George W. Mauror, tho outgoing county treasurer, claims that he Is entitled to $3,000 a year as salary, ana the fees of tho offlco over this amount nro to be turned Into tho county treasury to bo used In paying tho clerks and assistants of tho county treasurer, and In enso tho fees of tho office do not amount to enough to pay tho treasurer $3,000 salary, also the clerks and assistants, tho county shall pay tho balanco out of tho general fund oi tno county. , Tho board has asked tho county attorney for his opinion, and received tho following: Section 42, chapter 23 Compiled Statutes of Nebraska, 1001 Is tho county liable, and can tho Board of Supervisors pny tho clerks and assistants In tho offlco of tho county treasurer for their services out of tho gen eral fund of tho county, when tho fees ac tually collected and received, by the county treasurer, aro not sufficient to pay said clerks nnd assistants after tho county trcas-1 urer has retained out of tho fees of said office his salary of $3,0007" Continuing, Attorney Sackott says: "After carefully reading section 42, chapter 28 of tho Compiled Statutes of Nebraska, 1001, and tho decisions of the courts of this state, I am of tho opinion that under said section, tho county treasurer of this county may retain out of tho foes of said office the sum of $3,000 as salary, provided the fees of said offlco -shall amount to $3,000 and tho surplus fees of said office, If any, over and above said salary of $3,000 should bo paid Into tho treasury of tho county. The county would" bo liable for tho salary or nay of clerks nnd assistants In tho oftlco- of snld county treasurer, piovldcd tho Board of Supervisors upon application found tho samo necessary nnd tho numbor of snld clerks or assistants wero prescribed, tho tlmo they should bo employed, nnd the compensation they should receive, even though tho fees of Bald ofilco wero not sufficient to pay said clerks and assistants after tho said county treasurer had re tained his salary of $3,000, hut In any event not moro than tho sura of $2,400 per niinum could bo paid for tho services of-all said clerks and assistants, whether they wero paid out of tho fees of tho office, or out of tho general fund of the county, or port of each." "The fees of tho office during the four years of Mr. Maurcr's administration" said a member of tho board today, "will lack about $4,000 of paying tho salary of tho treasurer, and tho clerks of tho office, and I bellovo that It Is tho Intention of the law that nil county offices shall bo sclf-sus-tatnlng. I have looked up tho following cases, and I consider them similar cases to this ono of ours. "Gago County against Wilson, 38 Neb., 168 ahd 56 Northwestern Reporter, 880 nnd also same case, 38 Neb. 165 and 56 North western Reporter 810, 26 Neb. 375 and 54; Northwestern Reporter 683; Rogers against Cuming County 46 'Neb. 202 and 64 North western Reporter 068; Wolfo against Kyd; Boyles against Webster County 18 Nob. 131 and 24 Northwestern Reporter 457, and the State against Silver, 9 Neb. S3. "All of those cases hold generally that the foes of the offlco must pay all expenses of maintaining said office." This Is the first time this question ever arose in this county, and as the statutes provides tho treasurer shall have $3,000 and salary In all counties having over 25,000 population nnd under 60,000. The question is being fraely discussed by the attornoys of this city. The board will conveno tomorrow and probably some deci sion will be reached.

To tho Editor of Tho Bee: I seo you aro "Jumping onto" my frlond Hank Agor. I think It Is very un kind of you to do so. You ought to know thnt ho Is one of the cleverest follows that over hung around a legislature to seo that tho boys "voted right." You admit that ho has been liberal with his passes and his ifreo theater tickets and other favors. As to paying them money, setting up tho drinks and introducing tho members to fas cinating ladles, that duty has usually been delegated to others who aro a little less anxious to havo tho nppcaranco of respect ability. Hank's lino Is to smile a sardonic grin, tell smutty storlos, present arguments to "committees" and tell tho members pri vately about tho political power of tho "road," encourago hopes of future prefer ment and, If the member Is not speedily compliant to his masters' wishes, to glvo hlra plainly to understand that tho road knows Its friends and ho will not get thero again If ho does not "knuckle down." I am sure Hank Is Just as gentlemanly about It as he can be and obtain the resultB re quired of him by his employers, nnd I don't think you ought to criticise him and hold him up to public contumely. It Is probably true that ho has moro or less business privately with tho dtfforent Btato officials, tho members bf tho supreme court and the court commissioners, but how otherwlso could these gentlemen know what his employers want. Thoy cannot meet theso officials publicly. It they did you would probably be finding fault with them. They cannot send them open letters and have them printed In tho papers. You ought to know that the only practical courso open to them Is to employ somo dlscreot and reliable man to slip around In tho dark and whisper tholr wishes to theso men who nrq occupying seats of authority. You cannot deny Mr. Ager docs his work well and with as llttlo scandal as possible. It Is necessary for him to look after state and county conventions also. The samo political sagacity that he shows In other departments of his work ho exhibits here. Ho Is "in touch" with all the poli ticians nnd knows who can bo rellod upon bettor than his masters. They aro busy with tholr regular railroad work all the time, whllo Hank goes slipping around In gratlatlng himself Into the good graces of all officials and would-bo oiftclals, watching the work of thoso In offlco, reporting to his masters what Is dono and Is doing, ar ranging combinations nnd campaigns, mak ing and unmaking statesmen, and In all respects doing faithfully antl well all duties that devolve on htm as envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary of the greatest political power In tho stato, and you. criti cise him for It. Are you nwaro that the Stato Journal Job office, being furnished with a largo lino of railroad work, fully Indorses him? You don't seom to know how good and great a man he Is, Or your feelings against him may bo due to tho fact that he looks something llko you, or possibly you think the railroads should not secretly undertako to control all political affairs and tho actions of public officers. Perhaps you think It ought "not to bo pos sible for a railroad general manager to send word to a Judge that If ho did not decldo a caso according to his liking ho would pull him down from tho bench and be ablo to do It if tho Judge did not comply. Whatever your Ideas or motives may bo, I am suro you are very unjust In your crit icism of a very worthy and good man, J. M. ROSE. Out of I'rlxon Into Trial Hoi. riERRE, S. D., Jan. 27.
