moved w. w. Webb from the Presi-
dency Of the Amalgamated Ware

I also asked him a good many
questions in regard to Ladson, Bo-
denhamer, DuckWorth and Barrett,

Farmers Who Are WideFAwake

Gentlemen: Enclosed find some
resolutions directed to be sent to you
for publication:
The legislative committee of the
Walton County Farmers Union
keeps posted on some subjects and
refers matters, from time to time, to
the meetings of the County Union.
Copies of these resolutions have
been sent to our Senators and Repre-
sentative in the National Legisla-
ture.
We realize that if we never tell
our lawmakers what we want that
we probably will not get much.
Our information on these ques-
tions was largely gained from your
publications.
At the December meeting of the
County Union resolutions were pass
ed against the proposed new railroad
bill in the Georgia Legislature that
you were instrumental in exposing.
Very truly yours,
GRADY CARLTON, Sec.

Coal lands.
THE next subject, and nj most I'm
portant for your consideration, Is the
disposition of the coal lands In the
United States and Alaska. At the be-
Ginning of this administration there
were withdrawn from antry for pur-
poses of classification 1857, 900 acres.
Since that time there have been with
drawn by my order from entry for
classification 7S.977,745 acres. making
q total withdrawal OF s6.s44,746 acres.
Meantime of the acres thus with.
drawn 1,061, $50 have been classified
and found not to contain coal and
have been restored to agricultural en-
try. and 4.728.o91 acres have been
classified as coal lands; while Z, 1898, 23s
acres remain withdrawn from entry
and await classif cation. In addition
s37, 900 acres have been classified as
coal lands without prior withdrawal,
thus increasing the classified coal
lands to 10, 2 ,372 acres.
Under the laws providing for the
disposal of coal lands in the United
States, the minimum price at which
