Washington, July the people of the country were being taxed for the building of roads for the state of Wyoming under the guise of making improvements in Yellowstone National park a question raised by Congressman Hamilton of Michigan. Congressman Hamilton contended that this system had gradually grown up by which the government was imtnense sums of money for the improvement of roads lead ing out of the forest reserves throughout the west. Congressman Mondell of Wyoming denied having any knowledge of this practice.

He admitted, however, that no state in the west built any roads within the boundaries of the forest reserves, although the states needed thei-e roads badly and used them freely. He said the states no taxes nor income whatever from the forest reserves and therefore refused my money upon them. Mr. said if the government would open up the forest reserve and give it to his state, it would be plad to build the roads. Ho believed it was unfair for the government to keep these tracts ol land in perpetual reservation so that the states could receive no income from them and then ask the states to build the roads.
