Keeping The
Dollar Home
Every Dollar sent out of town for a pur
chase enriches some one else.
Every Dollar spent here helps to enrich
this city.
All things being equal; our merchants
are entitled to your first consideration
This prosperity is your prosperity. As
they grow they become greater fac-.
tors in our city life.
In many instances you can buy at home
to better advantage than elsewhere. .
Look over the Advertising in todayfs
Coos Bay Times and see if that state
ment is not true.
Compare goods and prices and ascertain whether
or not our local business men are "on the job."
i '
nny qualified person can pnrchuso
his land Tor not less that $10 an ncro,
if it Is located moro than in miles
from n railroad. If less than lfi
miles, It will cost $20 an acre For
moro than 30 years all conl land wan
sold at the minimum price suggested
by tho law. Slnco 1907 the prices
havo been fixed by tho geological
survey and havo ranged from tnu
minimum price to $000 an aero.
In making his coal declaratory
statement, tho applicant must swear
that "1 make this application In good
faith for my own benefit, nnd not,
directly nor Indirectly, In wholo or
In part, In behalf of any other person
or porsons whomsoever." Many en
tries have been canceled and many
convictions had for a violation of that
oath,
(ioeinnicnt Grows Watchful
In later years, especially, tho gov
ernment has been watchful to ascer
tain whether coal entries hnvo been
mndo for tho bonoflt or the parson

Tho coal laws applicable to Alaska,
are entirely different from thoso In
forco in tho stales.
Perhaps no subject connected with
our public lands Is agitated moro than
that of changing our cool laws. They
havo been productive of consider
nblo dissatisfaction, moro especially
lu their administration. Considerable
criticism of their operation lu Alas
ka has boon made. During tho past
fow years rules for classification of
lauds havo boon formulated by tho
geological survoy, which h'avo
changed the operation of alio laws
very 'much.
Since 1873, when tho present conl
laWB wcro enacted, thoro havo boon
approximately 000,000 acres entered
yielding to tho federal government
about $10,000,000.
