Motealf, imntic frauds have been perpetmted has ported, tho question, of a not vet been mado apparent, ho in lluenco of tho administration will be behind a hill proposing to cut off fur ther sales of government coal land, though permitting them to bo worked by individuals or companies on a royal ty plan. The president, like every other prac tical western man, knows that tho ex isting coal land law is not sensibly framed. That law was, built on tho theory that tho individual could take up and develop a quarter section of coal land, just as the homestead law gives the individual a like area of agricultur al land, But no individual can develop a quarter section or a whole section of coal land. He could not afford to in stall the necessary machinery, or if ho could, his profits on a quarter section would not recompense him for the out lay. Moreover, no railroad would think of building a spur onto an isolated quarter section of land and tho owner of the land could not afford to assume that expense. So the individual with a quarter section of coal land in his possession would have a white, or rath er a black, elephant on his hands. The mineral wealth might be there in abundance, but he could not get it out and could not get it to market. How to cure this evil is a question for congress to decide, and some solu tion is likely to be forthcoming this winter. Some favor a change in the lawjincreasing the area of coal land that may be purchased by individuals or by companies or corporations to such size that they can profitably invest and put the coal on the market. These men would increase the price of coal land so that the government would reap a larg er benefit from the sales. committee of tho whole, but Under wood, of Alabama, objected to its con sideration in committee. Ho said, however, ho would mako no objection to its discussion in tho house after tho bill was reported by tho commit tco of tho .whole. Ho added that ho was opposed to tho increase, but said ho would not block tho way of serious consideration. His suggestion formed'tho basis of an agree ment that, when tho bill shall bo ro- Keneral ad vance in salaries will bo takqn up and voted upon as an amendment be fore the legislative bill is finally actbd upon.

Tho legislation was entirely moritorious. Tho threo congressmen from Wash ington voted for tho increase. Hinger Hermann voted against it, but ho would not bo a beneficiary. French, of Idaho, was not present. I Representative '"Jones, of Washing ton, today introduced a bill proposing to increase by 20 per cent tho salaries of all civil service employes of tho gov- 'eminent on Julv 1 next.

Tho ability of tho government navy yard to turn out warships equal in all respects to those built under contract, in the opin ion of Kear Admiral Capps, of tho bu reau of construction of the Navy, in his annual report, has been fully demon strated. He urges that at least one yard on tho Pacific coast and one on the Atlantic coast, when practicable, should be given a reasonable propor tion of new construction work fir order that such yards may always be available for any work the government may de sire to undertake therein. Admiral Capps admits that it costs less to build a warship by contract by reason of tho shorter hours of paid holidavs, vacations, etc.. dent of tho United States shall the rate of $12,000 each." By a voto of 214 to 51 tho amend ment was adopted.

"In conclusion, let mo oxpress my admiration for tho work done by tho congress when it enacted the law under which the island Is now being adminis tered.
