TO CANCEL CAREY
ACT PROJECT
LANDS
State Registrar Of Lands 10 Take
Action as Soon as Attorney
Has Decided.
Sentinel special servIce


Denver, Dec. 23.-The cancella-
tion OF all Carey act projects in Cole
RADIO Will be made under order of the
state land board II the attorney gem
eral rules that such action is legal.
The matter is yet under considera-
tion but n decision is expected from
the attorney general any day. The
decision of State Registrar Hoggett
is that all such projects which are
covered in tie segregation of two
million acres should be cancelled
where the holders of the same have
made no attempt to make improve
ments on their holdings.
The trouble is. according to the de-
cision of the land registrar, that the
Carey projects are being held by
parties more for speculation than for
improvement. Most of the projects
are held in large tracts when they
should be under the control of indi-
viduals whose purpose is to make
Improvement and development. The
state, he says, should encourage the
small owners to irrigate the land and
thus add to the wealth OF the state.
without waiting longer for the gem
eral government to take action.
Much of this 100000 acres being
held under the Carey act is located
in the counties of Routt and Moffat
and protests have recently been sent
to Washington against the system
OF segregation under prevailing con-
ditions which are doing much to
( prevent actual improvements.
While the bulk of these lands are
situated in Routt and Moffat coun-
ties there is considerable in other
sections of the state. A decision of
the attorney general is expected. it
is said. before the first of the new
year. Parties interested in theile
claims are urging n ruling on the
question by the attorney general as
quickly as practicable.

alton should be permitted to come in
at the eleventh hour and pocket the
profits. ! hope the house will strike
cut this provision. Debate on the
bill has brought out much interest
ing information concerning the
northern territory. The United
States bought Alaska from Russia in
1867 for S72, 00,000-and q good
many men thought we had not secur-
ed much of bargain Since then our
people have taken from Alaska, in
minerals and sea and fur products,
S429,523 $50. And the surface is
barely scratched. The experts who
appeared before the committee which
considered the bill said that Alaska
had more coal than Pennsylvania,
West Virginia and Ohio combined,
more copper than Michigan and Ari-
Zona, more gold than Colorado and
California, more tin than Wales and
more than all the other American
waters.
Sec. of the Interior Lane who is
supporting the measure declared
whoever owns the railroads OF
country determines very largely the
future OF that country" If that be
true-and who will question it,
how essential is II that we should
set about the development of this
rich empire with a view to the well
fare and happiness of the millions
who will eventually dwell there, and
not with the thought of placing fab
ulous wealth in the Golfers of a priv
ileged few?
1t may seem extravagant to speak
of Alaska being inhabited by mil
lions. but the agricultural depart
ment supplies data which fully sus-
tains the suggestion. The depart
ment makes comparison of the ag-
r.cltural possibilities of Alaska and
certain north European and Asiatic
provinces on the same latitude as
Alaska. In these countries of Eu-
rope more than 100000 people
are now living in territory less
than twice as large as Alaska. They
are cultivating about 100000 acres
OF land, and producing excellent
crops of wheat, rye, barley and oats,
besides engaging extensively in the
stock raising industry. One of the
departments experts recently made
a survey of the Tanana Valley, Alas |
ka, and reported 100000 acres
available for grazing and agriculture
or more than the total area under
crops in the north European coun-
tries referred to above, and which
support a population of IL, 100000.
