gress. back IN the year 1879. faced the
problem Of getting rid of coAI lands in
the Rocky mountain region, it was
the consensus Of opinion. at least in
the Senate, that the coal lands ought
to be sold for prices varying from $40
to $50 an acre. So the secretary of
the interior was authorized to sell
those lands at prices not less than
$40 an acre" for lands more than ID
miles of railway. and not less than
$50 an acre" for lands within Is
miles of \ railroad.
On the basis of that congressional
action. taken more than a quarter Of a
century ago, two gentlemen contend
ed Saturday in the United States Dis
trict Court in Denver that they had a
right even now to buy coal lands from
the federal government at 500 an
acre, They were mistaken. Willis
Van Dervanter. United States circuit
Judge, sat with Judge Lewis in the
Federal Court. and it was Judge Van
Deryanter who delivered the opinion
OF the court.

LISBON HAS BEEN CAPTURED
AND ROYAL COLORS ARE
SUPPLANTED.
KING MANUEL PRISONER
ARMY AND NAVY AFFILIATED
WITH THOSE WHO WOULD
MAKE A REPUBLIC.

London.-The long waited revolu.
ton in Portugal has broken out.
Lisbon is in the hands Of the repub.
licans; the royal standard has been
torn from the palace and the flag of
the reyolutionists raised in its place.
Some reports have 1t that King Manuel
is prisoner, army and navy have
added their support TO Transforming a
monarchy into a republic, and the
movement that began in the capital is
likely to spread quickly throughout
the country.
The war ships began bombarding
the Kings palace at o'clock in the
afternoon with small show OF resist
ance, and the supporters of the mon
archy were forced to capitulate.
Ever since King Manuel ascended
the throne there have been plots for
the overthrow Of the monarchy and
against his life.
The republican party has been
planning for a complete change in the
government. and King Ma iuel ac-
cordins to the republican leaders. by
his disregard for the rights of the
people and his blind insis,ence on a
dictatorial system, has added to the
fires Of the peoples wrath.
AS is usual under such conditions,
telegraphic communication with Lis
bon has been practically cut off: but
wireless dispatches from vessels lying
off Lisbon have amply confirmed the
revolution.
