NOUANU WORK HAS
BEEN STOPPED
LabOrers Laid or Saturday as
Money for Month Had
Been An Spent.

NNNN NNWfNNHH"tt| ~ ahAH
That there has boon wooful misman.
ngcmcui in the matter Of spending tho
money for the work in Nuuanu. Is the
story In political circles now, and the
supervisors are racking their brains to
see whore more money lie to come from
to carry on the work.
Work in Nuuanu was stopped satur.
day, and should have been stopped Fri
day, il is said, as there was no more
money left Of this month 3 appropri-
alton TO pay the laborers, an overdraft
of several hundred dollars being made
to keep the men working to Saturday
noon, so that they could draw their full
days pay for the half.day's work.
Now Face overdraft.
According to the facts as they leaked
out, although everyone connected with
the matter is keeping quiet as possible,
for September, $1100 was left and that
at the beginning of October enough
other money was appropriated to make
y
work another month.
Far from doing this, the whole sum
was spent by Road Supervisor Wilson
in practically half month, now there
is nothing to continue with, and the
laborers are laid off until further money
is provided by the board. From one
source it is stated that had the super
visor employed half the men he did,
there would have been money for the
whole month and there would have been
employment for the men all the month,
about as much being accomplished.
AS it is now the road has no top dres-
sing at all, there is nothing being done
on it, and with heavy-rain now great
damage would be done by washouts.
City Engineer Gere said last evening
that the supervisors had told him to go
ahead with the work and something
would be done to get the necessary
money.
Money Is Switched.
According to statements made at the
city hall the road supervisor has
switched money appropriated for one
purpose to an entirely different one, and
when the supervisors said anything to
him he replied that Gere was his boss.

it when questioned by the supervisors,
that Wilson had charge of everything.
Supervisors Worried.
In the meantime the supervisors are
worried, and the road committee is
likely to have much to say at the meet
ing Of the board which is scheduled for
Friday evening of this week.
The "Cowboy SUPERVISOR is back In
town and he is likely to have something
to say to his friend Murray for butting
in on the road committee at regular in
tervals and voting money which should
be used by the road department alone.
At the present time, it is said that
the supervisors are overdrawn on the
road appropriation more than one thous-
ands dollars, and they are holding
nightly caucuses to find out where they
get Off at to raise money to cover the
deficit.
Another System.
County Auditor Bicknell is working
on new accounting system for the
road department. so that the overseer
can keep better track of his expenses
and know when he has reached the limit
of his annropriation

Davis Responsible.

In introducing Major Alexander M.
Davis to the audience, Chairman Grit
liths of the meeting called attention to
the fact that the army officer was re-
sponsible more than anyone else for the
convention of the past two days, and
without him it would not have been
success.
Major Davis gave a quiet impressive
talk to the audience, telling them that
for two days they had in a way been
on the Mount with Christ and that they
must now come back into the valley and
take up the work assigned them to do.
There was grave responsibility to
all. first from trying to live in the rari-
fled air and second from trying to shirk
their share of the work in the valleys.
Nothing for Rejoicing.
He called attention to the figures on
the board behind the stage giving the
amounts that each church spent for mis-
sions, and said that these figures were
no reason for rejoicing, but that rather
they were reason for "A sense of shame
that so little was spent for this pur-
pose. No self sacrifice was shown by
them.
Now that the first step had been TAX
on, Major Davis said that the work
rust be vigorously prosecuted in each
of the churches, the man-to.man can
vass being necessary to carry the mat
ter along in the way it should go.
He left with the audience two ideas.

every land and every people in the
world. and the second that all would
finally come TO one from the ends of
The earth. even as did the three wise
men converge on one path leading to

There were two hundred persons pres

ENORMOUS COAL VALUATIONS.

Under the present scheme Of
classifying Government coal land
SO, USy,214 acres of Withdrawn land
had been, on August LIST, examined
in geologic detail and classified by
the United States Geological Survey.
The lands found to contain workable
coal beds aggregated 16yS73,37O
acres These lands, in 40-acre
tracts, have been appraised by the
Survey at a total valuation of
$711, 992,53T, in prices ranging from
the minimum figure stated in the coal
law $40 or $40 an acre, according
to whether the land Is located within
lis miles of the railroad to figures
OF over $500 an acre where the thick
ness of the coal beds may aggregate
go, so, or 100 feet or more The
Government valuations accord in a
general way with the market values
of private lands in the West, al
though as a matter of fact they are
somewhat more liberal to the pur-
chaser. Four hundred dollars an
acre may seem high price for Uncle
Sans coal land, which a few years
ago might have been bought for $40
an acre. However, the Geological
Surveys plan of Classification and
valuation contemplates that the Gov
eminent should receive at least a
reasonable return for it's coal, adj
mittedly the most useful rock min
eral In it's possession. When it is un-
derstood that an acre with, say a
40-foot coal bed or seam contains
approximately $4,000 tons of coal;
an acre with 100 feet of coal contains
1870, 900 tons the price asked by the
Government, instead of being exor-
bitant, seems on the other hand
hardly sufficient. On land having a
thickness of 80 feet of coal $500 am
acre would be less than cents ton.
In reality, under the Survey regula-
lions which consider depth of the
coal, number of beds, quality, and
other physical details asked for many
areas containing so feet of coal are
equivalent to nearer 2 than 3 cents
a ton
At the minimum prices which were
in effect before the Government with
drawals of coal lands, the 16,873,370
acres above referred to would have
been pricd at only $266,652,431, the
difference in favor of the public rev
enue at the new prices being there
fore $445g340, 106. Under the provi-
sions of the national irrigation law
the proceeds from all sales of coal
land are credited to the reclamation
fund. is that Government irrigation
has, az 1t were, considerable trust
fund for future operations.
