OCR Page 1 of 4on the ground of the great damage certain to be done by
taking them down. Many of the men making these requests
are entirely honest men, whose requests it would be in the
interest of the community to grant were it legally possi-
ble to do so (tho this of course does not apply to
some of those making the requests) ; but it is quite im-
permanently
possible to permit such an arrangement. There must be
some adequate provision of law if there is to be any satis-
factory solution of this problem, and in default of this
provision the present faulty law must be enforced. You
are perfectly at liberty to show this letter to any and
all Senators whose constituents are chiefly concerned in
this matter.
Sincerely yours,
Heodore Roosehi
Hon. E. A. Hitchcock,
Secretary of the Interior.
