So Roosevelt Urges in Message to Con-

LEASING SYSTEM FAVORED.
He Urges Congress to Enact LegisIa-
tion by Which Coal and other Fuel
Resources on Public Lands May Be
Conserved.
Washington, D. c., Feb. 19.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt today sent to both
houses of congress a long message
calling attention to what he terms
the urgent need of legislation affecting
the different phases Of the public land
situation in the United States He
advocates the conservation Of coal and
other fuel resources on lands still be-
longing to the government, saying that
henceforth the nation should retain it's
title to it's fuel resources, urges gov
ernment control of the western public

Weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-03-07

timber has advanced in the west 1t has
advanced still more in the east, where
there are no forest reserves; that sup
plies of timber are today being ship
ped from the west to the markets of
the Mississippi valley and even to for
eign countries. To secure cheapness
of timber and fuel for the moment at
the cost of ruin to our own children
would surely be a suicidal policy 1t
may be fairly claimed among the ad-
vantages of the leasing system that:
81. 1t will facilitate the working
under favorable conditions of coal de-
posits for local markets by miners
without large capital, as no land pur-
chase money would be required and
the small royalty charges would be
paid out of the earnings;
50. 1t would facilitate larger opera
tions, as the leases could be made suf-
fciently liberal in the matter of time,
area and other conditions, to induce
healthy competition and meet all real
demands; and yet in all cases the
general supervision of the government
could be such as
"3. To prevent waste in the extrac-
tion and handling of these fuels;
"a. The system can be operated in
such manner as to prevent the evils
of monopolistic control;
"5. 1t will permit the government to
reserve from general use fuels espe-
cially suitable for metallurgical and
o;o1 I'D
"6. It will enable the government to
protect the public against unreasona-
bic and discriminating charges for
fuel supplies.
Private Control of Coal Lands.
Already probably one-half of the
total area of the high grade Goals in
the west has passed under private
control. Including both the Ignite
and the coal areas, these private hold
ings probably aggregate not less than
10000 acres of coal fields. With the
remainder of the lands containing min
eral fuels reserved and leased by the
government there will be ample op-
portunity to determine, in the near
future, which of the two systems
private ownership or the leasing sys-
tenn with general government super
vision-will best protect the interests
of the people and thus promote the
permanent development of the west.
''In planning such a leasing system
by the government the question Of rev.
enue, beyond that necessary to cover
the expenses of administration and ex-
ploitation, need not be seriously con-
sidered. The spirit of generosity
which the country as a whole has
shown in connection with the disposal
of it's public lands and the use Of the
proceeds from the sale of these lands
for the further development of the
west through the reclamation service
and in other ways, is of itself a suf-
ficient guarantee that in the admin
istration of both the forest reserves
and the national coal lands this gen.
erous policy will be continued. 1t is
safe to believe also that federal super
vision of both the coal lands and the
forests will be reduced to a minimum,
and that in the future then more than
in the past this supervision will be
limited to that necessary to carry out
the policy of conserving these national
resources in such a manner as will

The Leasing System.

OV II leasing system as that pro-
posed represents by no means an un-
tried policy. In the Australian coun-
tries during the last fifteen years coal
has been mined under a system of
government leasing. In all the great
coal producing European countries, ex-
cepting Great Britain, leases are
granted almost entirely by private
land owners, but there, as in other
countries, the surface culture and
mining operations are conducted inde-
pendently of each other. In Nova SEQ
tia, British Columbia, Indian, and 9TH
er British colonies, a government leas-
ing system has been adopted, and is
working satisfactorily. In the United
States, although conveyance of the
mineral rights with the surface has
been common practice, the separate
development of the two interests is in
creasing; and in the eastern and mid
die states large part of the coal
is being mined under a system of pri-
vate leases. 1t is gratifying to note
that in these states, these two great
industries, agriculture and mining, are
conducted within the same boundaries,
and the country thus attains it's high
est dual development without conflict
of interests. Indeed, the mining in
dustry, and the factories using these
fuels create large local markets for
the products of the farm.
"In our own western states and ter
rib 4u Of h0+ or
forests has rendered necessary their
preservation of public utilities, and the
preservation of the forests for the pur-
pose of conserving both the waters and
the timber supply has come to be rec
ognized as the wise and proper policy
Of the federal government. The guam
tity of high grade mineral fuels in the
west is relatively much smaller than
that of the forests, and the proper
conservation of these fuels is a matter
of far-reaching Importance. We have a
right to the proper use Of both the
forests and the fuel during our life
time, but we should not dispose of the
birthright Of our children. If this gov
ernment sells it's remaining fuel lands
they pass out Of it's future control
If it now leases them we retain control
and the future congress will be at lib
erty to decide whether it will continue
or change this policy. Meanwhile the
government can inaugurate a system
which will encourage the separate and
independent development of the sur
face lands for agricultural purposes,
and the extraction of the mineral fuels
in such manner as will best meet the
needs of the people, and best facil-
itate the development of manufactur-
ing industries.
Objections to System.
"I am aware that objections to this
system are being urged. It is claimed
that so large a part of the coal in
systems in some western states have
already passed into the possession of
certain large corporations, that those
endeavoring to operate under lease
system other coal deposits would be
unable to compete with these corpora
tions and therefore that the fuel de-
posits still belonging to the govern
ment should be allowed to pass into
private ownership, presumably into
the hands of the same or other large
