FOR ITS COAL LAND
More Revenue From Proper
Classification - Many
Withdrawals.

Washington. March 21-Many bill

area of coal lands in the west consist.
ing Of more than seventy million acres
are owned by the United States gov
eminent according TO announcement
of the United States geological survey.
Some tracts are of immense value.
containing beds of the highest grade
coal in veins from thirty to forty feet
in thickness.
BY new,method of selling this coal
land, the government will gain an
enormous amount of money. The old
way was to sell the coal lands regard
less of value, al SO an acre, if more
than fifteen miles from Il railroad. or
at SEQ if within that limit.
Now the geological survey measures
the coal in an acre and the land is
sold on a coal tonnage basis. AS a
result coal lands have been priced as
high as $500 an acre and in one tract
at 5000 even.
During the last year the geological
survey classified by individual forty
acre tracts, s,527.166 acres with val
ne of $560.S15,OS1. This, added to the
results of former work. gives a total of
IS, 4S0,53S acres classified as coal
lands with a valuation of $637 1919, AIS.
By the old method these lands would
have had valuation of $216,2S9, GAP,
which shows a net gain to the gov ern-
ment of nearly $42O,0OO,0Oo.
All proceeds of coal land sales are
deposited to the credit of the irriga-
ton reclamation fund"
Scheme Remarkably Accurate.
The scheme under which this geo.
logical classification and tonnage val
uation has been worked out is remark
ebly accurate and scientific. The best
evidence of its adequacy is the ready
acceptance of the tonnage estimates
and valuation by the coal land pur-
chasers In addition this administra-
ton has withdrawn $62,140,54S acres
of probable coal land as result of
geological field examination and has
restored to agricultural entry eighteen
million acres found to be noncoal in
character.
Another public fuel resource in
whose conservation Uncle Sam is TAX
ing an active interest is oil. The geo
logical survey estimate reported two
years ago to the national conservation
commission of the oil contained in the

GOVERNMENT PLUMS
100000 Worth Listed in
New Directory.

Washington, March 21.-Tyler Page,
clerk to the committee on accounts of
the house of representatives, has de-
stroyed prospect of peace of mind for
the newly established majority of that
body by the compilation of a report
published convenient vest pocket form
showing that there are $500, 600 worth
of jobs TO be filled at the bidding of
the Democrats, beginning with the
next session of congress.
The trouble is that the Democrats
can not find a way of dividing these
spoils. There are already a hundred
applications for each place, and the
little red book has had the effect of
calling the attention of new members
TO the piums on which the old mem
bers have long had their eyes.
The scramble for places bids fair TO
swell the pockets of Washington hotel
keepers when the new congress con-
venes Democrats all over the coun-
try not only want jobs, but many have
announced that they will come to the
capital in an endeavor to get them.
A subcommittee of the committee
on ways and means is trying to reduce
the number of jobs by about one-third.
