East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-08-02

In a recent interview Acting Secre-
tary Woodruff of the interior de-
partment was asked concerning the
fear recently expressed that there
may be a coal famine in the west
during the coming winter and gave
out the following statement:
Not including great areas of Ignite,
which will be mined only after the
more valuable coal deposits are ex-
hausted, the geological survey has
determined that there are townships
In the states and territories west of
South Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas,
aggregating in all over 60,000,O00
acres Of land each township of.which
contains, under its entire surface or
part of 1t, workable deposits of coal.
The geological survey has been busy
for several years in determining the
location, quantity, quality and work.
able condition of these coal deposits.
This work has been taken up with
the utmost vigor during the present
year and townships containing more
than $4,000, 900 acres in which work.
able coal exists have been examined
and classified. In examining these
tracts the experts of the geological
survey have attempted to measure
the value of coal per acre conserva-
lively by taking / nto account the
number and thickness of the veins,
the quality of the coal, its depth be-
meath the surface, its distance from
railroad means Of transportation and
also from thickiy settled commune
ties.
According to the coal land laws
the secretary of the interior may not
sell this coal for less than $40 per
acre when the land is Is miles from
railroad or $40 per acre when near
er than Is miles. Secretary Garfield
has ruled that II the coal is worth
moro ;han this minimum price fixed
bv law, he has the power and the
duty to fix a higher price per acre,
according to the actual value of the
coal. Up to July "a his classification
of the coal, which thereafter is open
to entry under the coal laws, is shown
by the following table:
Price Per Share. No. of Acre.

several days past, and has Travelled
over almost every piece Of mining
property.
When asked If any developments OF
a sensational character were liable to
result from his trio into the Warren
district Mr.. Dezendorf stated that he
was entirely unprepared to make any
answer TO that question. as he had
been here only a few DAYS. and If he
had had the necessary time he could
not answer. as information of that
kind could only be obtained from the
interior department at Washington.
He did state. however that he would
be in this city for some time.

MOORE'S PRINTING BILL.

Senator E. E. Moore's bill to change
the basis of bids on state printing so
that small printers in any county may
be privileged, with chance OF success.
to bid on any item, instead of being
compelled to bid for an entire class,
was reported out from committee in
the senate yesterday and recommend
ed for passage. Senator Moore says the
big printing establishments of the
state, several in Indianapolis, and a
few in other cities, are much opposed
to the bin while every small printing
concern in the state favors it. Under
the existing conditions. senator Moore
says. the printing establishment in a
small town. which might be able to
handle a majority Of the items in a
certain class. but which could not
handle some Of the larger items, is
barred from bidding because a propo-
sition must be submitted on an entire
class.

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
Takes the Opportunity to Reassert "a
Principle That Is Causing Some
Stir in Politics just Now.

New York, Feb IA letter from
President Roosevelt to Mrs Maud
Nathan, president of the Consumers
League was read at the annual meet
ing Of the League in this city. In his
letter the president wrote that if state
authorities did not do their duty in
matters of so vital importance as child
labor there was no choice but for the
national government to interfere. The
letter follows: Permit me through
you to express my earnest hope for
the success Of the Consumers League.
You are doing work that should appeal
peculiarly to every good citizen, for
those you befriend are greatly in need
Of friends, and are not powerful
enough to stand UP for themselves.
am particularly interested in your ef-
forts to improve the conditions under
which working girls do their work in
the great shops, and l have, of course
an especial interest in your effort to
combat the evils Of child labor.
Repeats the Root Statement.
"There is much outcry, chiefly, I
think, from the beneficiaries Of abuses.
against interference by the national
government with work which should
be done by the state governments l
would always rather have the local au-
thorities themselves attend to any evtl,
and therefore would rather have the
state authorities work out such re-
forms, when possible; but if the state
authorities do not do as they should in
matters Of such vital Importance to the
whole nation as this of child labor,
then there will be no choice but for
the national government to interfere.
l am striving to secure either final ac-
ton or else a full and thorough in
Vestigation Of the matter by the au-
thority of congress at the persent
time"
Remarks by Mrs. Kelly.
Mrs. Florence Kelly, formerly chief
factory inspector in Illinois, lamented
the attacks made in hundreds Of news
papers on the Beveridge child-labor bill,
and particularly one attack in a paper
in this city, which was based largely
on recent census bulletin. Among
other things she said: 1T is stated
in that editorial that there are only
about 100000 children employed in
mills and factories, and that these are
chiefly either immigrant children or ne
gro children working in southern cot
ton mills. If they are employed in the
cotton industry it is in the cotton
fields And the $4,000 children given
in that bulletin as illiterate are not for
eigr born. They are either colored chill
drcn in the south, or white children in
such districts as our own Adirondacks
or Catskills. But think Of it any way
only 100000 children under "A years
employed in mine and factory. Is MOI
that enough to impress any one?"

Later a man who saw the Breslin

that the woman at the hotel was the

Calve said she had no plans, but might
sing under Conreids management, and
that it would be strange for her to

the Metropolitan Opera House.
