field division, which was recently ere
ated in Idaho, as a result of the last
congressional appropriation of $l.O00,-
600 for protecting the public domain.
The district of the tenth field division
now embraces Utah, and it is this see
tion that Mr.. Walker has been employ
ed since October, 1907.
Mr.. Walker is classed as one of the
best men in the mineral division of the
general land Office, alike by his supe-
riors and his associates. Upon Mr..
Walker will fall the burden of proof
Of the government S case III many of
the coal hearings now pending before
the land Office. Much valuable coal
land has been selected and entered In
Utah within the past eight or ten years,
but the government has not yet passed
title TO the same. and in many instances
title will not pass completely. Mr..
Walker has done great deal of work
in the Carbon county coal fields and also
the less known coal fields OF Iron
county and southern Utah.
Mr.. Walker is being sent to more
difficult district than Utah, and 1T IS
because of the extreme confidence of
the officials at Washington that such
transfer has been made Last summer
he was engaged III the Boise basin in

timber and stone entries on mineral
lands. Mr.. Walker has also done con
siderable work in the placer lands
