SAYS time HAS COME
TO REVISE LAND / LAWS
DR.. James Douglas Urges
Change Before American
Mining Congress.

PHILADELPHIA. October 22-The time
has come for revision of the land laws
to bring them up to date. according to
DR.. James Douglas of New York, whose
paper on public lands was read at today s
DIR. Douglas drew the conclusion that
while the land laws were liberal it was
only under such laws that the country
could have developed.
DR. George Otis Smith, director OF the
United States ge illogical survey. Washing
ton. D. c., delivered what he termed a
''plain talk in discussing revision Of the
mining laws. The first essential Of mining
land legislation, he said. should be that
no provision in the law should place any
unnecessary charge. burden or operating
cost upon the operator. DR.. Smith said
he favored a leasing law rather than the
present method of selling government Goa
lands at an appraised valuation. Any
scheme. of selling undeveloped resources
involves uncertainties in valuation, he
added. Leasehold, DR.. Smith said. has
the advantage over permanent alienation
in that it allows the government to exer-
else continued control in the public
interest
Dr. Smith further said that experience
showed that it Is purposeless and bad
economic policy for the government to
dispose of mineral lands in small parcels
simply to give every one a chance Let
the particular use to VIII CHI the land is
to be put determine the appropriate acre
age" he said.
.Alaska's coal lands lie untouched and
unlimited supplies of full need ID for the
development of the resources of the coun-
try are W thheld from proper and leeit-
mate use because an obstructive rather
than constructive policy has been fore
ed upon this distant teri tory" declared
Dr. w r. Crane, head of the mining de-
partment of Pennsylvania State College
in an address last night before the con-
greSS.
Considerable development work has
been done IN the coal fields of Alaska"
added DIR. Crane, but until the fferent
fields are thoroughly prospected their
value VIII be largely problematic. I'm
fortunately for Alaska the development
that was we'll under way was begun in
an extremely inopportune me, being
checked and thrott ed by the radical con-
sentative policy of a few years ago.

IAN old RECIPE
TO DARkEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns
Gray, Faded Hair Dark
and Glossy.

Almost every one know that
Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly
compounded, brings back the nat
ural color and luster to the hair
when faded, streaked or gray; also
ends dandruff, itching scalp and
stops falling hair Years ago the
only way to get this mixture was
to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" You will
get a large bottle for about 80
cents. Everybody uses this old,
famous recipe. because no one CAP
possibly tell that you darkened
your hair. as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair. taking one
small strand at time; by MORN
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two.
VOW hair becomes beautifully
DARK, thick and glossy and you

Defrauded Of Their Lands.

Dana I'll. Kelsey, superintendent of
the Union Indian agency at Muskogee,
described how these Indians were de-
frauded of their valuable lands. He
urged that physicians be stationed in
Indian settlements to check the spread
of contagious diseases.
p. J. Hurley. national attorney, Choc-
taw nation, one of the five tribes, de-
nounced the land interests that were
defeating efforts to have Congress dis
tribute $10.000.000 belonging to Choc-
laws and Chickasaws.
The failure to distribute these
moneys, he asserted. was due to at
torneys hired by persons who hoped
to benefit by proving citizenship in the
Choctaw and Chickasaw nations if the
government should reopen the tribal
rolls.
Such citizenship was worth from
S., 900 to $4,000, he said, and If the rolls
were reopened some attorneys would
make thousands of dollars because they
have taken claimants cases on con-
tingent fees of from 25 to so per cent.
