These lands are located In Coos and Douglas counties. Harry E. Laughlin, chief of the Port land division, has received a statement for the public from Mr. Tallman which explains exactly the status of these Unds and the futility of any effort at this time to obtain any portion of them. Commissioner Tallman'a state ment follows: "The act of February 26. 1919. Public No. 2S0. of the 65th congress, provides that upon the execution and delivery by the Southern Oregon company of a deed satisfactory to the attorney-general of the United States, reconveying ii the United States all the right, title and Interest of the said Southern Ore gon company in and to the lands situated in the counties of Coos and .Douglas, in the state of Oregon, and embraced within the limits of the grant made by the United States to the state of Oregon by the act of March 3. 1S69. entitled 'An act granting lands to the state of Oregon to aid in the con struction of a military wagon road from the navigable waters of Coos Bay to Roseburg, in said state." commonly known as the Coos Bay wagon road grant and now involved in litigation pending in the supreme court of the United States under the style and title The Southern Oregon company v s. the United States.' the said lands shall again become part of the public do main. ClaMlflcatloB Is Provided. . "Section 3 of this act directs the classification and disposition of these lands in the manrer provided by the act of June 9. 11 (39 Stat., 21s), for the classification and disposition of the lands formerly embraced in the Oregon California railroad land i-rant. This section elso mokes cer tain provision for the protection of a specified class of lessees, as well as settlers w.iose claims may be in con flict therewith. "The'act of June 9. 131S. which con trols the manner in which these l.mdft will be opened to disposition, provides, among other thinKS, for their classifi cation: l Power site lands, which shall int-luJe only such lands as are chiefly valuable for water power sites: (2) timber lands, which shall Include lands bearing a growth of timber not less than 3oO."00 feet, board measure, on each 40-acre subdivision: and (3), agri cultural lands, which shall include all lands not falling within either of the other two classes: followed by .specific provisions for the disposition of the lands in accordance with the several classifications thereof. Klllc I" Urlayed. "It will be seen, then, from the fore-a-oing that the lands embraced in the former Coos Bay wagon-road grant, as afiected by this legislation, some 93.000 acres situated in Coos and Douglas counties. Oregon, will not become sub ject to any manner of disposition there under until after a) the act is ren dered effective by execution and deliv- ery of the deed of conveyance as pro vided therein, and b) due classification and opening of the lands under the laws properly applicable thereto. Kor these reasons, therefore, the public is advised that there ts no method or manner by which any settlement or fil ing can be made at the present time that will initiate or confer any prefer ence right for the purchase or acquisi tion of any of these lands, nor until they have been classified, the informa tion obtained thereby made available, and public notice given defining the terms upon which the lands are to be disposed of. and the time of their dis position. "In the meantime the work of classi fication will be taken up as soon as the act becomes effective, to the end that the lands subject thereto may be opened to entry at the earliest practi cable dale."

Staton Says Way Tanlac Built Him Up Was Biggest Sur prise of His Life. "I am telling everybody I -hear com plaining to take Tanlac, because it did me so much good." said J. H. Staton, 305 East Eighty-seventh street, Port land, receiving clerk of the ffrue Blue Biscuit company, the other day. "My trouble began about five year" ago," he continued, "but in the last two years it got so mucii worse that everything I ale disagreed with me, and after every meal I would have a lump in my stomach almost as heavy as lead. My food would sour and form gas that would bloat me up and I would be miserable for hours. 1 got so that I was afraid to eat solid food and 1 lost weight and strength until I seemed almost a shadow of what I once was. I had so little en ergy that I could hardly keep going and such a pain in the small of my back that if I stooped over I could hardly straighten up again. I also had a pain in my right side, and 1 would have dizzy spells . so bad that 'often 1 would almost fall before 1 could grab hold of something t-o steady me. I was so weakened bythe time I had finished a day's work that 1 would have to lie down andfrest a while before I would bo able to go to the supper table. I couldn't find any thing in the way of medicine that did me any good, but finally a friend ad vised me to try Tanlac becauso it had helped him so much, and it surely was a lucky day for me when I took his advice. "it certainly was one of the biggest surprises of my life, the way the med icine began to help me, because my appetite soon came back, and now 1 am eating three big meals a day ami I am not bothered with gas or any other trouble after eating. The pain in my right side is gone and so is that awful pain in my back and I can bend over and straighten up vith all ease. That tired, draggy feeling is all gone and 1 am as full of life and energy as 1 ever was in my life. 1 don't have any dizzy spells and at the end of a day's work I am not all in like I used to be. Just to put It in a few words, I feel well and strong and would like to meet every man in this world who suffers like I did so I could tell them to take Taplac." .
