while. Engineers, firemen, miners,
lawyers, business men, clerks, min

I'VE visited all school rooms in Ra-

Dawson and Ration have had no
trouble in raising the sums assigned

other visit to these places, they would
easily raise five times the amount.

"JIM" WILSON'S WARNINGS
SEEM GROUNDlESS.
The Way Farmers Are FIocking to
New Mexico Should Make
Secretary Happy

The warnings recently voiced by
Secretary Jim" Wilson of the de,
partment of agriculture. when he
toured New York state in an auto
mobile as the guest of Republican
Whip john w Dwight, that the right
kind of farmers are growing scarce
and that the cities are gobbling up
the young men who ought to do better
ploughing the soil seem unnecessary
as far as the Territory of New Mexi-
co is concerned. .
A glance at the report of Major
Fred Muller. the receiver at the local
land office shows that people are keep
ing up their activity in making home

Sic with the soil.

No DANGER Of
COAL FAMINE
Monetary Value of Alaskan
Fields Much Overstated
Says Mineral Expert
BLOW FOR PINCHOT FORCES
Supply of Fuel in United States
May Last Another Five
Thousand Years.

Washington, April 9.-Alfred H.
Brooks, mineral expert of the geo
logical survey continued his testi-
mony today, before the Ballinger-Pin-
chot investigation committee He
said that the United States controlled
sixty to seventy per cent of the
worlds visible supply of coal. At the
present rate of consumption it will re-
quire 4,913 years to exhaust the sup
ply in the United States. These fig
ures are arbitrary the witness said.
Figured on the basis of the increased
use of coal in the future at the same
rate of increase of the last two or
three years, Mr.. Brooks said it has
.neen estimated that the supply in the
United States will be exhausted in
from a hundred to a hundred and
nifty years. Somewhere between the
estimates of a hundred and fifty to
5000 years, he declared the truth
would be found. Mr.. Brooks said that
there had been too much alarm as to
the exhaustion of the coal supply.
Other factors of power development
will with time decrease the use of
coal. He thought the Alaskan coal
fields too lar away for the leasing sys-
TEN to be employed with advantage.
He thought such price should be put
on lands in Alaska however, as will
prevent the speculative holding of
property and require its being work
ed. Mr.. Brooks declared that the
future of Alaska depended upon the
0, ening of the coal fields. He also
say there had been many exaggerat-
ed statements as to the monetary
value of the coal fields in Alaska.

The fire department was called out
Monday afternoon by a needless alarm
which was sounded at SIT from Box
IS. at the corner of Cedar and Stone
streets. and was due to nothing more
serious than the burning out of a
chimney of a small house on the Lam
bard farm on the Hospital road and
occupied by William Chadwick. Four
chemicals were used and the all-out
sounded at 5.37 1t is to be regretted
that through a lack of judgment on
the part of someone the department
was called out as Driver Moody of
Hose had received telephone call
and that piece of apparatus was amply
sufficient to handle the case, whereas
the pulling in of the alarm called out
Hose l and also the hook and ladder
truck and gave the horses hard and
useless run of over a mile. A still
or telephone call to either of the hose
houses will bring plenty of aid in case
of chimney burning out, and there
are but a few places about town
where phone is not available.
