Dear Mr. JAartr'u-
In reply to your letter of maroh 30:
I am not so grVatly oxitet over the graing
situation on the Vipqua Divide as you sees to be,
I realize though that it In very neoeary to
Provide for Olaus A stookmen, amd this should be
none whether it neoeesitatee redualag the number
grace by Class S men or whether it necessitates
developing now range. Most of the Crater Use"
on the Umpqta Divide are Class A otookmea. ft the
Minter range this year we will have two Clea A
sheep men and one Clus, B man with lose than
the protetive-limit, number ol Sheep. I am, therefore,
not sure whether your Class A men are more
entitled to that range than the Orater Clase A
men. But at any rate the matter will be tatea
up with you in a separate letter later,
Noe, have not been in the habito, as ou i
in your letter of allotting grsaing range along
the Umpqua ii"44 to new applicants. All tbe users
now, with th ezoeption of one, are old reulat
uemrs of whom you have frm time to time been
notified, It any negleet In notifying you of what
we have done or intended to do has occurred the
error as been purely clerical, The new user io
one that took over the Johnson Zrothers' range.
and thiswill make his Eesont year, As you know,
the Johnson Brotherse' range was lying unused duriwng
191 anA 1914.0
There are no Umpqua stok that Intermingle
with the Orater stock exsept four to ten head ot
Wright's oattle and fifty to one hundre head of
Witohett & Oooper's cattle. The letter use ran#
on Three Ror Mountain, partly within Crater ?oret*;
an4 I reget to advise you that you have never
notified this offiee of their being allotted range
