Although Arizona has but five coal land entries, embracing 500 acres. with receipts to the federal govern ment thenefrom of s16.OOO. the meth cd of handling the development of other areas adjacent to this territory affords unusual interest because of the extensive need of butuminous fuel in connection with the immense min ing interests of this section.
 The records of the general land of flee discloses some interesting data, especially with regard to the sales of coal lands under the Act of March 3, 1873, up to and including June 90. 1907.
 During the year 1906 practically all the coal lands in the public land states were withdrawn from appro- priation pending their classification and valuation, based on the distance of the land from constructed lines of transportation and the grade of coal such lands contained. The position was taken that the remaining public coal lands law, through subterfuge on the part of many applicants desirous of securing such lands, restricted the sale of such lands to such an extent chiefly valuable for such were taken that lands known to be coal lands ana under other laws.
 In this connection figures showing the area of coal lands sold since the passage of the act of 1873 up tc June 30.. 1907, have been compiled, from which it appears that during that time, or S4 years. but 3032 pur. chases, embracing 429,007 cres and for which $6.463 ,507.69 was received. have been made of both public and Indian lands containing coal, .ach purchases of Indian lands having only been. made in the state of Colorado.
 At the time of the withd-iSgal of the probable and known coal areas ir 1906, it is estimated that approximate ly 66,900,240 acres were so withdrawn at which time it was also estimated that approximately 24,6S3,5 ,529 acres within this area had been patented or were embraced in pending entries made under some other law than the coal land law. with very few excep- tons.
 The figures, as compiled, plaIniy show that many acres of coal lands nave been disposed of, under laws other than the coal land law, which Is accounted for largely because of the provisions of the coal land law which tend to lessen the sales undel 1t are accounted for largely because ot the provisions of the coal land law which tend to lessen the sales under 1t on account of the small area one person or association of persons can purchase tan area not sufficient to justify the necessary expenditures in. cident to the development of a pay ing mine, and the price per acre at which coal lands are sold, these lanos being the most expensive of all pub lie lands.

 At the Great Eastern mine of the Superior & Boston, drifting on the recently encountered Black Hawk vein eastward has been discontinued, but the drift in the opposite direction is being vigorously pushed.

 The Globe Consolidated continues active work at both the Gem and Nal Io-y shafts.

(By Frank J. Graf.)

The activity in copper stocks of the pas few days was resumed this morning and copper stocks all shaw ed good strength. The advance con tinued during the day and stocks were in good demand, but towards the close there seemed to be consid- erable selling, and with a few ex
 captions the prices were about the same as the close of Friday a.gnt. North Butte was one of the leading
 ones. advancing to 47 1-2. Local curbs were not overlooked and are show ing better demand, while stocks are not being offered so freely. Superior & Pittsburg and Shattuck showed the most strength, the former selling up to 13 3-4, and Shattuck showing good demand at 15 1-2. with little coming out under 16. The New Yorks showed sligat activity during the day, but sold of at the close, with little change over Friday. Money holds

Well Known Quaker Has the
Civic League at His Back
And All Will Work for Huge
RemonStrance.
C0UNCILMEN NOT POS
SESSED WITH JUDGMENT
Claims That If City Fathers
Used Any Judgment, They
Might Then Be Able to kc-
compIish Something.

The saloons in Richmond must go.
Timothy Nicholson the prominent
Quaker. says so, and back of him is
the local civic league. Just what
method will be pursued in accomplish
ing this end has not yet been decided.
A committee has been appointed TO de-
eide on the proper method and some
time next week it will probably an
nounce its plan of campaign.
Mr.. Nicholson intimated that II was
probable the plan decided upon would
be the drawing up of a huge remon-
STRANGE, which would be filed with the
board of county commissioners. Mr..
Nicholson intimated that the method
of having each wet" waru in the city
petition council to be made a resi-
dence" ward would not be seriously
considered, because the Civic league
members do not rate tho city fathers
as reformists in any sense of the word.
Mr.. Nicholson stated this morning
that in his opinion the members of the
city council did not really represent
They do not seem to have any COM
prehension of their privileges and du-
ties" said Mr. Nicholson. He classi-
fled the city fathers as men who are
not possessed of good Judgment or
who are more than ordinarily intelli-
gent.
The councilmen are of the opinion
that in the event of petition 10 make
ward a residence portion of the city.
the petition must be signed by an
overwhelming majority OF residents.
The councilmen also appear to be in
| ignorance of the fact that the Moore
law provides they can declare any
part of the city a residence portion
without the residents petitioning to
this effect. Whisky appears to DOM
mate in matters of this kind Mr..
Nicholson stated.
| He said that IL council would use
looms. 1t would provide one or two sec-
tions OF the city. where they could be
| located. This plan. he said. would
serve two purposes, In the first place.
! it would make the greater part of the
city residence districts and. in the sec
ond place. st would permit the police
to keep a better surveillance over the
saloons. Il would suggest that there
be two saloon districts, one IN the
heart of the up town business district,
say from Sixth street to Tenth street,
and from the first alley north OF Main
street to the first alley south of Main
street. The other saloon area could
be located in the vicinity of the Penn
sylvania station" Mr.. Nicholson said:
Wouldn't the temperance people OBJ.
| ject to any such an arrangement:
Don't they want all the saloons driven
out of the city!- Mr.. Nicholson was
asked.
The temperance people will accep,
anything which Is regarded as an ad
vance in the fight against the saloon
evil. This would not cause us TO lose
sight of the object aimed at-the exter
mination of the saloons" he replieS~

SURVEY ON LINE
New Section to Be Built Be-
tween HagerstoWn and
MunCie.
MEANS MUCH TO THE ROAD.
COMPANY CAN THEN COMPETE
SATISFACTORILY WITH TWO OF
CI. cAGO-CINclNNATl SHORTER
LINES IN OPERATION.

Survey of proposed new railroad
line from Hagerstown to Muncie was
instituted by a corps of engineers of
the p, c. c. & ST l.. railway today
The corps is in charge of George Hal
leck of Muncie. and will lay out line
from Hagerstown to Muncie follow
ing the shortest possible distance and
eliminating all curves. 1t is proposed
by the Pennsylvania system to con-
struct this link of road and thereby
obtain a short line between Chicago
and Cincinnati. At the present time
the Pennsylvania has a through line
from Chicago to Cincinnati, but it is
longer in mileage and time required
than the lines of two cOmpe titors.
Some time ago the Pennsylvania ac-
quired control of the old Chicago. In
diana & Eastern roads property. This
line runs from Chicago to Muncie and
the trackage is in fair condition For
many years the Pennsylvania had no
acce SIS to Muncie and all the business
was attended to by the Big Four and
Lake Erie & Western. With the ac-
QUESTION. of the c., |: e E. however
the PENNSYLVANIA was put in posi-.
ton to compete. The present route
Of the Pennsylvania passes directly
through Hagerstown to Cincinnati. A
long curve in the road is made at
Hagerstown, however and it swings
west ward. BY constructing a short
line between Hagerstown and Muncie
a gap between the present line OF
the Pennsylvania and the c., l. G E
can be filled. The c.. l. & E has q
direct route between Muncie and Chi
cagO.
Conference of the Pennsylvania of
ficials at Pittsburg and Muncie have
been held frequently of late and it il
believed at the local offices the con
Meeting link will be built. If this is
done the road will have two lines be
tween Chicago and Cincinnati. one
| considerably shorter than the present
route. Two lines between Hagers
town and Muncie have been surveyed
and the new one will be the third.

Pennsylvania Leader Loses Power at
Hands of Credentials Committee.

Hands of Credentials Committee.
Denver, July S.-Bryan, through his
forces in the National Democratic
convention today answered the criti-
cisms of his character by Col Guffey,
of Pennsylvania, by Gction swift and
sure. The credentials committee grip
ped the Guffey delegates and pitched
them out of the Pennsylvania delega-
ton, destroying the majority by
which Guffey held the right to elect
officers to the working committees
and to the National committee. Other
contests were decided as follows:
New York, Murphy delegates seated
unanimously; Illinois, Sullivan dele
gates seated unanimously; Nineteenth
Ohio, Johnson delegates seated, "a to
%: Ninth Ohio, National committee
sustained; Third district, Pennsylva-
mia, National committee sustained; !;
Idaho, Dubois delegation seated by
vote of 26 to 20; District of Columbia,
Clayton faction was given four votes
and the Davis faction two.
Committee Works All Night.
The credentials committee went in
, to session at five o'clock last evening
and it was after six o'clock this morn
ing when they reported the case of
the Pennsylvania contestants. The
committee heard all the evidence in
all cases before going into active ses-
sion to make up their report for the
petition to the convention.
Still no "Favorite."
The vice-presidential situation is
beginning to clarity. although it is
far from clear yet. Gray will not be
the Bryan ruYning mate. His manag
er, Judge Joseph Marvel, has wired
Bryan that under no circumstances
would the Delaware man accept sec

today to the effect that Gray had in

nomination, he would decline the
