In handing down Its decision, the court granted the petition of my clients. There- was no reversapf decision by the ' court at all, but a marked reversal of at titude. The home rule law provides that . the city may and must regulate Its own liquor questions, but to hold an election on an option question for a municipality, the election must f irBt be ordered by the "eounty court.

Questions of material development of the Value and best use of lend or of the utilisation of the country's latent resources occupy a prominent place In the publlo thought these days.;;, Among such questions are those relating to the location or devel opment of gold and silver deposits,' or oil wells, or artesian water 'supplies; to the value of coal lands; to the possi bilities of developing the water power on' rivers; to the use of land for dry farming; and to .the proper location of transmission lines or Interurban , rail ways. On all these questions and oth ers relating to the earth's surface. . itf rocks and minerals hnd ores, to -water and lta best use, the United , States geo logical survey Is the court of last re sort. : In answering these Inquiries, the survey distributes over ft " million printed reports and maps each year and answers thousands of letters concern ing areas not . covered by printed re ports. ' ' : ' . : : Thousands of Inquiries. ".' Sqm 25,000 inquiries are received by the survey every -year from the general land office ag to the character of lands whsther these lands are valuable for coal, mineral . deposits, , or agricultural use, or have any possibilities for the development of water power or reser voirs or for irrigation, as the classifi cation i of the publlo lands Is by law made one of the primary functions ot the geological survey. ; To prepare these maps and reports and to answer thes letters of Inquiry requires an Intimate, first hand knowl edge of the questions involved that can be had only in the field,- so that, : at this season of the year, the Washington office of ths survey is almost deserted and the men are scattered from Maine to- California, from the lava slopes, of Hawaii to tna snow neias- or. northern Alaska. Division of 'Work.' The work is carried on In three lines: "The topographic 'branch makes maps showing the surfaoe of the earth, with its streams, rivers, lakes, roads, houses, towns maps that are being used by the geologists as bass maps, by engineers to locate railroads, roads, canals, sewers or drainage ditches, water power and lr Lease on eon oio , ,(-''.4-.

The , demand for these maps may be judged from the fact that most ef the eastern states have appropriated or are appropriating monty to help pay for them, the states paying one-half - or more ot the cost, and by ths further fact that.' though the maps are sold, over half a million of them are distributed each year. - The: geologio branch is Studying the earth's rooks, their history and contents, and, with this -foundation, Is mapping the whole United States so as to show, ultimately, just where gold and silver and the other precious and useful. metals do or may 'occur; where coal, oil. g phosphate, potasn and other salts neK where clays, building: stones, and other structural materials of - the ) highest grade can be found. A large share of the Work Is In the west, where the pub Ho lands ars being examined for classi fication at the rate of 10,000,000 acres a year, so that the government may .know which are coal, phosphate, oil and min eral lands, And thus dispose of them un der the proper provisions of law. 1 f ; ; Btndy 'of ''Water mutm?$t&&- The -water resources branch studies the underground waters for the purpose Of determining their availability for do mestio use or for Irrigation; the sur face waters to determine their amount and fitness for ue as water supplies of cities and towns; and for power or Irri gation; and Also makes studies bearing on flood control and similar projects. -.At present largo share of the sur rey's funds is expended In ' examining And classifying the publlo lands in the west, this expenditure reducing the work In the eastern states much below the amount formerly done. . In fact, a large part of the work now under way hi the east is done in . states that contribute one half or more of ths expens of the work. .
