or Pratt, democrat. worked with a

islative and administrative branches,
informally appointed a committee Of
business men to prepare a charter un-
der the commission form. The draft
was presented to the city council
three months afterward, but the 10
representatives paid little or no at
tention to it.
A petition, signed Uy more than 80
per cent of the voters, was then sub
mitted to the council. This urged the
appointment Of Is freeholders to for
mulate a charter. The council grant,
ed the request after some delay and
eight business men, five representa-
tvs Of union labor and two lawyers
were selected. This committee en-
bodied in its charter some of the best
features Of 100 plans in operation in
the United States and submitted its
work to the people, who adopted 1t by
an overwhelming vote at an election
on December 10, 1910.
Proceedings for Injunction were in
stituted in the Spokane county supe-
rior court afterward. The people
were sustained, but that did not
clear the field. An appeal was taken
to the supreme court of Washington,
the six judges of which handed down
Joint opinion, upholding the legality
Of the charter election.

ENGLISHMEN HAVE EYES
ON AMERICA AND ITALY

Although there Is sufficient excite
ment to be found in the condition Of
affairs political in London, two inter-
national events are occupying much
space in the English newspapers. OF
first Importance, Of course, Is the
sudden massing OF American troops
near the Mexican border, the second
item of interest Is the trial Of the
Cammorists in Viterbo. Italy. which
opened a few days ago.
Generally speaking. the Lonoon
newspapers take a broad view OF the
Mexican border affair, accepting the
situation as 1t Is and as the respon-
sible officials Of the American gov
ernment have presented 1t to Mexi-
CO. It is considered that America
must reckon with a probable violent
change of government in Mexico, for
there Is a strong party behind the
revolutionists seeking to establish a
Mexican federation Of Central Amer
ican republics. which would prejud-
ice the interests Of the United states
in Panama. The assembling of ships
and troops may therefore be a wise
measure.

TWO YEARS Of CONSERVATION

land is enormous: il can be figured
only in hundreds of billions OF tons.
Some tracts are OF immense value.
containing beds OF coal OF the highest
grade. 80, 80, so. and even so feet or
more in thickness The old way was
to sell the coal land. regardless OF
value, at the absurd figure OF $40 an
acre if it was more than Is miles from
railroad or at $50 if within that
limit. The present way is to measure
the coal in an acre and sell the land
al a price determined by its content
o. coal. AS a result coal land has
been priced as high as $i00 an acre
and one tract at even $500 an acre.
Since March 4, 1903, the Geological
Survey has classified, by 40-acre tracts
S,527.l66 acres of the Government
coal lands, at total valuation OF
$3.50, O,Sl5,OSl. Including the work
done under the last administration a
total of 13,4SO,53S acres has now been
classified as coal land. AT a valuation
of s637,6l9,41s. At the $40 to 500
minimum rate these lands would have
valuation of S21S.2S9,942, so that
the work done has resulted in gain
to the government of nearly s420,000,-
| 000. 1t may be noted that the pro-
ceeds of coal-land sales are all de-
posted to the credit of the "recla-
nation fund''-the fund that pays
| for the construction of the govern
ment's vast water-storage projects.
Government Appraisal Accepted.
The work involved in the classifi-
cation and valuation of the nations
coal fields is immense and the scheme
under which it has been worked out
| is remarkably accurate and scientific.
| The best evidence Of its. accuracy is
the ready acceptance of the esti-
mates and valuations by purchasers
OF coal lands and the fact that the
geologicl survey is constantly receiv-
ing applications and petitions for the
classification OF coal lands.
Enormous Tract of Coal Land in Mon
tana.
AS result Of geologic field exam
nations this administration has also
withdrawn 62,140,54S acres of prob
able coal land and has restored to ag-
ricultural entry 1s.777,756 acres OF
noncoal land, which had been with
drawn from entry pending the geo.
