Senator Shafroth, Democrat,
Opens Fire on So-CaIIed
Administration Bills.
SPEAKS ON THE MEASURE
RELATING TO COAL LANDS
Opposition Regarded as Hopelessly
In Minority. Although Warm
Contest Is Predicted.

Inc <hrst gun was fired in the Senate
Yesterday against the so-called admins
trat1on bills to regulate the development
OF the resources of the federal govern
ments lands in the west. The measures
themselves were not before the Senate
but Senator Shaforth of Colorado. demo
crat, during debate on bill which would
permit the government to lease certain
coal lands to the Republic Coal Company
in Montana. took occasion to declare him
self first. last and all the time opposed
to the principle of the leasing of public
domain by the government. Leasing
of the public domain is the cardinal
principle of the administration measures
The Montana bill was not disposed OF
before adjournment and will come ul
again in the Senate.
The administration bills We're intro
duced in the Senate by Senator Walsh
of Montana. and in the House by Repre-
sentative Scott Ferris of Oklahoma. In
each instance the measures have been
consolidated into one, so that a single
bill provides for the development of coal
phosphate, Oil. gas. potassium and sodi-
UNI on the public domain in the United
States.
> West Against the East.
AS general proposition, the people of
the western states. where most of these
deposits in the public domain are to be
found, and their representatives in Con-
sress have been strongly opposed to the
leasing proposition and have demanded
the right of entry and private ownership.
On the other hand the people of the
east and the so-ealled "corservationists'
are strong in support of the government S
retaining perpetual ownership and leas-
ing these properties
Inquiries made of both friends and foes
of the leasing principle in the Senate and
House lead to the same conclusion, that
legislation along the lines suggested in
the administration bills is bound to come.
probably at the present session of Con-
