Washington.-The President is ex-
pected to designate the Monument Ma
tional park in Colorado upon the re-
port Of a special agent of the land Of
flee sent there to investigate. The
new reservation embraces tract OF
about 800 acres lying between Pail
SADIE and Grand Junction. containing
palisades and peculiar rock forma-
lions. Representative Taylor took
the matter up with President Taft
some time ago and the secretary OF
the interior requested the general land
office to send an agent there to inves'
tigate. The report is expected danly
and II is believed will be favorable.
1t is stated at the Interior Depart
ment that President Taft concurs in
the views of the new secretary OF the
interior that Congress in granting the
Fort Lewis Indian lands to the state
Of Colorado did not intend to convey
to the state the coal underlying. The
President. 1t is stated. will recommend
to Congress the enactment Of legisla-
ton to make explicit the intention OF
Congress to conserve teh coal under
the lands for the use and disposition
OF the general government. Should
such legislation be proposed 1t is the
intention OF all OF the Colorado men,
bers OF the House and Senate to op-
pose its enactment the grant Of the
lands to the state in their opinion hav-
Ing been entirely unconditional.

COFFEE HEART
vsry Plain In Some People.

A great many people go on suffering
from annoying ailments for a long
time before they can get their own
consent to give up the indulgence
from which their trouble arises.
A gentleman In Brooklyn describes
his experience. as follows:
II became satisfied some months
ago that / owed tho palpitation of the
heart from which I suffered almost
daily. to the use Of coffee. Il had been
q coffee drinker for 80 years) but I
found It very hard to give up tho bev-
erage.
"One day I ran across a very sem
sible and straightforward presenta-
ton Of the claims Of Postum. and
was SO impressed thereby that I con-
cluded to give It a trial.
MY experience with It was unsat-
isfactory till I learned how It ought
to be prepared-by thorough boiling
for not less than Is or 20 minutes.

NO trouble.

GIFT Involves Coal Dispute.

Denver.-There are members of the
national administration who seem to
live in mortal terror that the state Of
Colorado is going to get something
for nothing from the government.
Congress recently turned over to the
state the Indian school at Fort Lewis
and about 700 acres Of land to be
used for the support Of the school.
In return the state agreed to main
tain the school.
tration. notably the new secretary Of
the interior. have discovered that
there is coal under this land and In
a letter to the President. the secre-
tary expresses the opinion that this
coal was not. given to the state and
that 1t is still the property Of the ma
tional government.
The entire transaction was supposed
to have been closed and the governor
has accepted the land on behalf Of
the state. The land was given with
out reservation and. In the opinion of
state officials. now belongs wholly to
the state.
Gov. Shafroth has received a copy
Of the letter sent by Walter L. Fisher.
the new secretary Of the interior. in
which the opinion is expressed that
coal to the value Of 100000 lies un-
der the land.
Federal officials. however. have
strange and wonderful ideas about
conditions in Colorado and Gov.
Shafroth has written to all OF the
Colorado representatives asking that
they use their influence to see that
no effort is made to deprive Colorado
of the land it has received. The
state in taking the land assumed upon
itself a grave responsibility in agree
ing to maintain an expensive school

MERE CLAIM OF NO MONEY NOT

Washington--Since the enactment

rearrange specific payments to the
Reclamation Service. with view OF
affording relief to needy settlers I'm
der reclamation projects, steadily
increasing number of applications
have reached the department through
members of Congress. The DISPOSE
ton of these cases presents a serious
problem to the secretary, who has
thus far announced no definite pro-
cedure to govern this class Of cases.
From members who have taken
these matters up with the secretary's
office 1t is learned that 1t Is not the
intention to grant wholesale and wide
spread relief under this act. and that
only upon an exceptionally strong
showing will isolated individual cases
be granted relief The department con-
strues the law to contemplate relief
of communities where unfavorable
conditions prevented the raising OF a
crop. On some projects the late de-
livery of water. or lack of water
caused by repairs 10 uitcnes VI cahhs'

Durango.-The San Juan CONNER
cial Congress recently held its most
enthusiastic meeting since organizing
four months ago. There were present
large delegations from the five sur
rounding counties and the entire day

situation was discussed at length and
the railroad committee instructed to
learn at once II the proposed extern
sion OF the Southern Pacific is to be
abandoned. in which event the people
of this section favor starting work on
the Farmington-Albuque road. A
telegram from the Albuquerque Com
mercial Club said the people Of that
city would go to the limit In building
the line.
The congress was addressed by
President Beaman of the State Fair
Association and later 1t was decided
that the congress counties would ex-
hibit at the state fair as a unit. The
congress also arranged to be repre-
scented by an exhibit at the Chicago

VALDEZ NOT A
GOOD CAMP FOR
POOR PEOPLE
MINER SEARCHING FOR WORK
Is NOT JUSTIFIED YET
IN GOING THERE.

VALDEZ, Alaska, March 30
Valdez will be the most populous
camp in Alaska this summer. The
last three steamers arriving in port
have brought about 500 people
which, with perhaps thousand who
were attracted here at an earlier pc
Rod, makes a population at present
of $500 people. Those arriving
bring eXtravagant tales of thousands
headed this way, and there seems
to be much food for thought in this
announcement. 1t is absolutely GER
tain that many of the late arrivals
are here without the necessary
funds to enable them to exist for
sixty days, or until the snow has left
the ground. 1t is this class that
|should be cautioned to remain away
from the camp until the mine own
ers can establish camps for develop
ment purposes.
The stockholders of the Cliff mine
are confident that the first of April
will witness the biggest melon ever
cut on that estate. The three-stamp
mill on that property has been idle
since the first of December, when
| it was shut down to make a num-
Der of necessary repairs and addi-
tons to the machinery people, the
/ loss of the usual dividend has been
keenly felt in more than one quar-
ter. 1t has had tendency to tight
en- up the local money market and
the procuring of ready cash very
difficulty.
Estimating the dividends of this
mine from past production, it means
the distribution to the lucky stock
holders of about $4,000 monthly
AS this is all velvet" it is perhaps
the richest little mine in the world
The next dividend will probably be
the largest declared up to that time

Fight NOW
ON IN The
BANK CASES
GREAT INTEREST Is SHOWN IN
CASE WHEN 1T Is CALLED
AT CARSON CITY.

CARSON CITY, New, March 30
Yesterday was the day set for the
taking up again of the State Bank
case and all the attorneys, together
with the directors of the bank, were
in attendance in the district court
room when the case was called,
There was considerable interest
shown in the case on account of the
fact that the amendment to the
banking law of the state takes the
control of the defunct banks out
of the hands of receivers and places
the same in the hands of the state
bank examiner.
Attorney Summerfield, for the di-
rectors of the bank, objected to
further action being taken in the
case at this time and asked for
continuance, as the bank examiner
was not present and further that
a certified copy of the amendment
to the banking law should be filed
with the court for his guidance,
and that the same had not been
done as yet
In compliance with this request
Judge Langan adjourned the case
until 1870 p. m, that the matters
might be attended to.
At the afternoon session of the
court Attorney Mack read the new
amendment to the court and attor-
neys present. At the conclusion of
the reading the court ordered that
the bank examiner be notified of the
proceedings and to allow for this
action an adjournment was then
taken until the 18th of April.
1t is more than. probable thai:
Bank Examiner Howell will appear
in court on the day set for the con
tinuation of the case and take ac-
| ton in the matter.
The new law places the bank ex-
aminer in charge of all the defunct
banks and it is more than prob
able that if any further action is
taken in the case it will be under
| the direction of Mr. Howell
