BARTLETT

II is the intention Of Congressman
Bartlett to introduce his much
mooted bill 10 remit the anIGal assess
ment work or mining claims for the
year 1907.
He made this statement in an in
teryiew with a Reno Journal reporter
last night:
Il am in receipt" he said of as
many letters, petitions. and pleas for
the introduction of such measure as
there are Of remonstrance. To both
sides am giving profound consfdera-

Favors His Bill.
Regarding this bill. the assertion
has been made that it will benefit
outside capitalists OF great wealth.
Possibly ii may: but if it also benefits
others who are not wealthy and VINO
are rightfully entitled TO the protec'
ton it aims to afford. that Is 40 arSlt
ment against the righteousness OF the
measure.
1T has also been urged against the
bill that many have already done
their assessment work. and that the
bill would be unfair to them. How
this holds good. I cannot see. Those
who are fortunate enough to be able
to have done their annual work are

The bill is designed to protect

otherwise, money enough to nave

WASTE OF NATURES SUPPLIES
Lesson of Exhausted Lumber Re-
sources Applied in Other
Directions.

Renewed discussion of the probable dura-
ton Of the coal supply and Of the conse-
quently appropriate attitude or action Of
the government toward 1t, is interesting
and suggestive, but II too often ignores
that which is really the fundamental con-
sideration, namely, the question whether
men have at any time or in any case the
moral right TO say After us--or after our
great-great-grandchil deluge." 1t
is interesting to be told that exclusive OF
Alaska our known coal resources aggregate
2, 300 900, OO0, 900 tons-hgures which the ordi-
nary mind simply cannot comprehend. It
is perhaps more to the point to show that
in the last ninety years our consumption
of coal has pretty nearly doubled every
ten years; and that while II the present
rate were maintained without further in
crease our supply would last 1000 years II
the rate kept on increasing as It has done
in these last ninety years our supply would
be exhausted in a century.
But the real point is that, whether our
coal is sufficient to last one century or
forty centuries, we have no moral right to
waste it, and thus needlessly to shorten the
period OF its lasting, and prematurely to
infict unknown and unreasonable hard
ships upon those who come after II. or
some thlnBs we may DO proulBhte with I'M
punity since they are inexhaustible and
not susceptible Of impairment. But Of all
things which are limited in quantity we
are the cusodians for posterity as we'll as
present users. We may grant that present
use is the first consideration. Even II the
coal supply were likely TO be exhausted
next year, we should have right to use
/ II this year. But discrimination between
use and waste is needful. We should be
| justified in using that which We needed,
even II in so doing the very next genera
ton would be deprived of It, but we are
not justified in wasting anything, even II
the deprivation will not be felt for a dozen
or q hundred generations.

McCIeIIand school Case Decided.
County Superintendent of Schools p. r..
Jackson has decided the controversy at
tending the preliminaries to the establish
ment Of an Independent school district at
McClelland by ordering the secretary to
call special election submitting the mat
ter to vote of the people. This is a
reversal Of the action of the board, which
declined to call such an election in Feb
ruary, on the ground of lack Of jurisdic-
ton. The board set up as a defense of
this action the fact that the last ofhcial
census gave the town Of McClelland a
population of only seventy-one, while the
law requires that the town shall have
at least 100 before It can be organized into
an independent school district.
The decision was reached by the sup
erintendent after a hearing at McClel-
land on an appeal from the decision Of
the board filed by ]. r. Crawford, ]. W.
Rounds and ]. d. Jones. At the meeting
OF the board in which the members de-
clined to submit the proposition to vote
remonstrance was filed by ]. w. Bell
and H. Sharp, who reside outside of the
town. but within the borders OF the pro-
posed district. In this remembrance the
following statements were made:
That the board had no Jurisdiction OF
authority In the matter because the town
OF McClelland is not town having l0C
inhabitants.
That the proposed district as petitioned
for is not so laid out as to be fair and
best subserve the interests of the people
for school purposes
That the district petitioned for includes
the county poor farm, which can not be
taxed
That the district as proposed in some in
stances includes land OF certain property
owners, but excludes their residences, thus
compelling them to pay taxes in the In
dependent district, while not allowing then
, to vote therein.
The superintendent holds that the on
cial census is not binding in this instance
II there is sworn testimony, as there is
70 the effect that a subsequent enumera
ton shows the required population. Tht
objections as to the persons taxed withou
having a vote are eliminated by a chang
in the boundary of the district.
