BALLINGER EXoNERATEn.

The republican majority of the

Ballinger of the Interior department.
has dled report generating him in
the matter Of charges concerning the
disposition of public lands, partic-
ularly certain coal lands in Alaska
and water power sites elsewhere. The
democratic minori ~ and one insurgent
member of the committee dissent from
the report. At no time during the
investigation has evidence been pro-
duced to show dishonesty upon the
part of the secretary. and those who
have followed the case casually and
with unprejudiced minds have been
able to see ln it nothing more than
honest differences of opinion respect
ing policy, which differences gave
rise tn suspicion, dlstrust and hostili
ty. There are vast deposits of coal in
Alaska, and development of some Of
such lanos at least is needed IN the
interest of the people in that frozen
country Coal sells at tremendous
price there, large proportion Of
which price is chargeable to the cost
OF transportation across the continent
from the eastern states and by ship
from the Pacific seaboard to Alaska,
when there is an unlimited supply in
the hills there simply awaiting the
digging. The people of that country
and elsewhere III the extreme west
regard ultra conservation as unjust
to the present generation.
This report of the committee, ex-
onerating the secretary will mean
nothing to a certain class of politi-
clans and newspapers who had decided
in advance of the investigation that
ne was guilty Of wrong motives and
will now as strenuously insist that
the committees report is simply a
whitewash. = They were determin-
ed to believe him wrong regardless of
the committees finding. The whole
thing was started for political
purposes and spite by those who had

Governor Clark of Alaska, in his
annual report to the Secretary of the
Interior. says that the want of cheap
fuel and the delay in operating the
Alaska coal fields, are the strongest
adverse factors in the present pro-
blems Of territorial progress. Gov
ernor Clark evidently believes that
there has been too much "conserva-
tom with respect to the Alaskan
coal fields. He points out that at
Cordova, which is situated within a
few miles Of one of the largest of
these fields, the price of soft coal is
regularly as high as $18 per ton.
THE present impossibility of mining
coal" he says, "either under title or
lease, is in measure at least
responsible for the suspension of con-
struction on one of the principal rail
roads and has caused general feeling
of encouragement over the business
situation in those parts of Alaska
where development and settlement
ought to be going on most rapidly" "
It is quite likely that Clifford Pinchot
will be heard from or the subject
which the Governor of Alaska thus
brings to the front. It is a subject
upon which the ex forester is an
academic extremist. Governor Clark,
on the other hand, seems to view the
situation from the standpoint of u

Matter at Once.

Washington, Jan. 1S-No time will be

day and was not messaged to the SEN
ate until today Chairman Beveridge is
sued call for a session of the commit
tee on territories to be held Immediate
ly after today's session of the senate
The members Of the committee are
unanimously in favor of admitting
both territories as states but some diff
ferences Of opinion exist concerning
land features involved in the proposed
legislation.
1t has been charged before the SEN

In the past have contained clauses

Some OF these grants were investigat-

Senator Nelson, who is a member

VANDAVER ON TRIAL.
Waylaid William Cam and Shot Him
to Death.

Wellington, Kan. Jan. 1S.-J. L. Van
daver, 81 years old, is on trial for the
murder of William Cam, a farmer 95
years old, August z, 1909.
It is alleged Vandaver suspected Cam
of paying undue attentions to Mrs.
vandaver, who is 81 years old, the
mother of II children, and had several
grandchildren. Vandaver lost money in
a picture show in addition to losing his
wife's affections. He will set up in
sanity as his defense. He lay IN wait
beside a hedge for Cam for an hour
and a half, at the edge of town and
blew his shoulder to pieces with a shot
gun as Cam was going home about
midnight.
Cam lived several hours, but refused
to say Vandaver shot him.
The state closed its case today after
proving that Vandaver shot William
Cam. The defense then began intro
ducing testimony.

KNOCKS 1T OUT.
State Charter Law Received Death
Blow, Says jackson.

Attorney General Jackson, who re-
turned to the city today, was asked
about the effect of the United States
supreme court decision of yesterday
which declared the Bush law invalid.
The attorney general said he could not
give any definite opinion as regards
this decision until he had read the
decision, but he was inclined to the
belief, after reading the telegraph
reports, that the supreme court had
invalidated the Kansas charter fee
laws. He was afraid that every cor
poration seeking a charter hereafter
would seek to take advantage Of the
decision in order to avoid payment of
their charter fees.
These fees totaled nearly quarter
of a million dollars last year. If it
turns out that the decision has had
the far reaching effect then the at
torney general was sure that there
would be imperative need for a special
session of the legislature in order to
pass new law providing for the col
lection of charter fees.
