COAL CASES MAY
 SOON BE DISPOSED OF

News that final settlement of mos of the Alaskan coal cases has beer had, may be expected within a short time.
 It is said that some cases will he held open at the instance of the claim ants.
 It is provided in the Alaska coal leasing law that claimant whose claim Is pending may relinquish, and in the discretion of the Secretary of the Interior, receive back the purchase money of BIO an acre which he paid A number of such applications to re linquish are already on file, among the applicants being nearly all the claimants in the Frost group, in the Matanuska fields. Other claimants have indicated that they would like no final ruling until they had made up their minds whether to offer to relinquish.
 But there are some claimants who. strongly convinced of the justice of their claims, are standing pat. They insist on going through to a decision.
 It is broadly hinted at the office of the commissioner of the general land office that these claimants are taking chances. Should their claims be can celled, it is pointed out, cancellation might te construed as taking these claims out of the classification "pend- ing" and leave no chance whatever of the claimant getting back his money.
 There is ground for believing that very few. if any, claims will be al lowed, save the one claim in the T. P. Mcdonald group, the Seattle claim, in the Boring field, patent to which is now practically assured.
 Commissioner Tallman said that field examination and the taking of testimony in all of the cases is now practically closed and the cases made up.

MAY ABOLISH THE
 RED ST|PS

According to a statement recently made by the Department of the inter. for in relation to the alternate SO-rod strips reserved by the government along the shores of navigable waters in Alaska. which was recently re- ceived by Surveyor General Charles E. Davidson, in communication from the commissioner of the general land office, there is a tendency toward abol- ishing the provisions of the act The statement was made in passing on case involving the location of an old pioneer who settled on land which subsequently was included in one of the alternate SO-rod reservations, and reads as follows:
 From the frequent presentation of question arising under this provision the department concludes that it is generally thought in Alaska by those interested in it's development, that the further enforcement of this provision will not be conducive to the best in. terests of the community or the gen. eral public, for the reason that, in it's operation it excludes from any use too large a portion of lands lying along navigable waters. This view doubt. less finds much support in the chang. ing conditions now confronting the ter ritory, that demand greater opportu. mites of development, in spaces now reserved, and of which no use is TOW made, or possible under existing law This objection, however, to the said provision I think would be overcome by adding hereto the following:
 But the President may, for suf-
 ficient cause shown, and with due
 regard for the purpose and intent
 of this proviso, restore any DOT
 ton of lands thus reserved to
 appropriation after not less than
 thirty days public notice. ?
 Little by little the provisions ol the law are being set aside, as the department becomes acquainted witt the actual workings Of the law. Imme diately upon assuming his duties, Sur veyor General Charles F. Davidson called the attention of the department to the injustices of the provisions ana pointed out that the operations of the law defeated the very ends it sought to obtain by it's passage. The first ! decision in line with removing the dis ability of the laws provisions was ir securing the freeing of mineral loca tions that happened to be a part oi tha reserved s0-rod strips. X. Now il seems that fur her lands are to he freed so that they may besome oi use instead of being held in idleness

SENATE DECIDES ELECT IO N
 CONTEST :

In view of the discussion concern ing Judge Hubbard and the contest
 over his seat in the Alaska Senate as
 shown in the article quoted from the
 Juneau Empire the Seward Gateway
 asked Senator Ray his opinion as to
 whether the Courts would be called on to decide the matter. President Ray
 stated that the Alaska Senate had the exclusive right to judge as to the quail fications of its own members. That
 this right was universally recognized and that the Hubbard contest would be heard by a committee of the sen ate, named for such purpose; that the question upon which the senate would vote, would be the adoption or rejec- tion of the report of it's contested election committee. MT. Ray further stated that as he understood the mat ter no question was made as to the ability of Mir. Hubbard and that his qualifications as to superior mental capacity was well recognized. The law provides-"The Senate shall con sist of eight members,-each of whom shall have at the time of his election
 the qualifications of an elector In Alaska, and shall have been a resident and an inhabitant in the division from which he is elected for at least two years prior to the date of his election" words Resident and an Inhabitant. "T understand" says MT. Ray from the Empire article Senator Willard be- leves Judge Hubbard not to possess the necessary two years qualifications and takes the stand that MT. Hubbard Is in the same position as most other men alleged to be carpet baggers. know nothing of the merits of the con- ments made by those opposed Hop troversy other than general state ments made by those opposed politi- cally to Hubbard, in Valdez; first, that Judge Hubbard's family had not re- sided in Alaska for more than five years; second. that MT. Hubbard maintained a residence and an office in Chicago for more than two years prior to November, 1914; and third, that MT. Hubbard has arrived and re- turned to Alaska in August 1914. Personally, I can see but one ground for such a contest, and that is the desire of all true Alaskans to condemn carpet bag rule, and to themselves elect to office only those clearly resi- dents and inhabitants for the required period of two years. From my knowldge of the members of the com ing Alaska Senate l am frank to say no. political lines will be drawn, and the voters of the Third Division will be satisfied with whatever action is taken in the Hubbard contest. should such a contest be instituted"

Rev. ]. w. Flesher and family
are visiting at the home of Mrs
Flesher's parents, Mr.. and Mrs. j.
c. Ball in Heppner. Rev. Flesher
was pastor Of the M. E. Church in
Heppner some years ago. He has
been laboring in field in Michigan
for several years past, having charge
of educational work. Desiring to
come west again to get out of the
rigors of that climate, he has accept
ed call to the church at Twin Falls,
Idaho and will go there in about ten
days to begin his labors. Mrs.
Flesher will remain here until things
are made ready in the new home.
The Twin Falls church is a large one,
having a membership of 500, and
Rev. Flesher considers he is FORUM
ate, indeed in getting so favorably
located. Like many others who
have lived for years in the Pacific
Northwest, Mr.. Flesher could not be
satisfied east of the Rockies and he
is glad to be able to return to this
country.

SUCCESSFUL TERM
OF SCHOOL CLOSES
Miss Shannon, Teacher at Hail Ridge
Well Liked.

To the Editor:-
A very successful term of school
closed at Hail Ridge on Friday, April
"a. Miss Alta w. Shannon had
charge of the school as teacher, and
proved to be one Of the best teachers
we have ever had. She was an in
spiration to her pupils who were al
ways kept busy with their books, and
they never advanced faster than they
have this year. We are sorry, in
deed, not to be able to retain Miss
Shannon here for the next term of
school.
On this last day, several families,
patrons of the school began to gather
at the school house about half past
eleven, bringing with them we'll filled
baskets. The platform was taken up
and placed on top of the desks for a
table and on this was spread white
linen and covered with good things
to eat, and all enjoyed a splendid
good time.
Miss Shannon was we'll liked by
everyone and received heaity con-
gratulations from both patrons and
pupils on the successful termination
of her school.

PLOWS WITH A TRACTOR

The Heer Tractor being used by
Messrs. Crum & Brunton in plowing
large tract of farm land on the
Gay place for D. E. Gilman, is prov
ing to be wonderful little machine.
1t is constructed on entirely different
lines from any other machine ever
brought here. 1t was brought to
town on Thursday and took out three
loaded wagons. When the top of
the grade was reached another wag-
on on which was placed the cook
house, was added to the train, and
the little machine moved right along
with its extra burden as though it
had little to do. This machine is
able to plow from % to 35 acres per
day with two 3-bottom plows, and it
is a general utility machine. When
wheat hauling time comes in the fall
it will be used to get the grain to
market; in fact anything that is re-
quired of tractor can be performed
by this machine, and it is proving
very satisfactory investment to its
owners. After Messrs. Crum and
Brunton have finished the work for
Mr.. Gilman they will move on to
lands which they have rented and do
a lot Of plowing for themselves.
