Washington, March 28,-The enor-
nous aggregate of 81, 377, 900, 900 rep
resents the value of the coal lands now
owned by the Choctaw and Chickasaw
Indians, according to computation
submitted today by Senator LaFollette.
1t is proposed to sell or lease these
lands.
"This great total" said Mr.. La Fol
lette, "is something more than quar-
ter of the capitalized valuation of all
the railroads in the United States. "
A conference report on the bill final
ly to conclude the affairs Of the five
civilized tribes brought out Mr.. Latol-
lette's remarks. The proposition to sell
or lease the lands had been eliminated
by the senate when the bill passed. A
clause was inserted by the conference
permitting the secretary of the interior
to ascertain what could be accomplished
in the way of leasing the coal lands ano
report at the next session of congress.
The Ladysmith news and Ingram news. [volume] (Ladysmith, Wis.) 1905-1906, 1906-03-31

This was construed by many senator's
as authorizing the secretary actually to,
lease the lands.
Senator La Toilette strongly opposed
ali present legislation relative to coal
lands. He said information had been
obtained from the geological survey
showing that the 437, 734 acres Of coal
lands had been carefully surveyed and
all the mineral veins followed out. OF
this tract 1O4, 900 acres are already I'M
der lease.
Mining operations, he said, have
demonstrated that royalties paid the
indians a t cents ton aggregate S400
per acre. He assumdd this to be far
basis for estimating the value OF the
remaining lands. There is no other
like deposit of bituminous coal in the
country. 1t is almost equal to anthra~
cite coal. A computation, he, SAID,
would show that all the coal lands are
worth SITS, 900, 900 in royalties.

THE CITY DADS CONFER CITY ASSUMES COST
Of Right of Way of Owen & Northern
Railway Through the
Citv.

At the mass meeting held at Word
ems hall Wednesday evening the peo-
pie of Ladysmith, as represented by
those in attendance, declared them
selves unanimously in favor of assump-
ton by the city of the deficit in the
Owen & Northern right of way matter.
This deficit amounts to S3207.21, &C
cording to the report of the committee
made to the city council-that being
the cost of the right of way through
the city in excess of the $1O,O paid by
the railroad company
AS heretofore stated, it was agreed
upon the part of a number of citizens
that this right of way should not cost
to exceed $10,0 900 or that any amount
in excess thereof should be paid by the
city, either by the parties to the agree
ment or by the corporate city.
The mass meeting was attended by
over half a hundred citizens who were
unanimously in favor of the assumption
by the city of this deficit. No one voted
against the proposition.

the meeting. He wanted to be excused
on the ground of not having been here
long, but was Overruled on the ground
that he is fixture in the city.
T. F. Armstrong, Jr., was selected as
secretary.
An error was pointed out in the
committees report, which was explain
ed by members of the committee. A
motion was made and carried that the
amount to be assumed be distributed
over three years and that the railway
committee and city council go over the
matter and decide upon the plan of as
sumption and payment.
Upon suggestion that it might be
we'll to have the report audited by a
committee selected at the mass meet
ing, the following We're selected: B. L..
Birkbeck, D. H. Richards and Rev.
Barker.
Mayor Johnson and others detailed
the Importance and value of the rail
road secured as the result of the agree
ment made three years ago.

ducing steam locomotives and by the
success of his Rocket on the Liverpool

steam was to be the future source or

Those who thought that the city
school building was larger than needed
at the time it was built, now have
another guess before them, that of
now large a building the second one
will have to be to take care of the
city's wants for the next few years.
The school board finds all the rooms
crowded and need for more room. 1t
is evident that before fall there will be
demand for considerable more room,
and the question is: where shall an
other building be erected and when?
Here is an evidence of the city's
growth that does not depend upon cen
