It has become possible to compute approximately the size o the pamphlets for the In'"''0" voters. S. A. Kozer. chief clerk ot the secretary of state's office today measured the materia) b,e 'n"d" ed in the book and concluded that the copies of the bills, amendments and arguments will occupy 120 pages at least. The cost will be about 0 per page, or $6000. As persons who file arguments must pay their pro portionate Bhare of the total cost about I2S50 has been paid by private Individuals. Copy for Eeach oter.

Secretary of T i State Benson is now securing lists u-h. hRve registered in eacn of the counties of the state and has clerks at work addressing envelopes to these voters. When the pamphlets have been printed they will be slip ped Into the envelopes and mailed. i State Printer Dunlway will try to save the state $1 000 in postage by shaving the pamphlets a little close on the edges when he trims them. It is expected that the postage on each pamphlet will he five cents, or ?.i000 on the whole 100,000 copies. Mr. Duniwav thinks that by trimming the pamphlets to a slightly smaller size than the law specifies he can make the pamphlets light enough to go for four cents each. .Mailed Soon as Printed. The work of getting out the pam phlets Is being rushed. In the mean time It is useless for voters to make inquiries. The most they can do is to register and then await the com ing of a' copy of the pamphlet when the printing has been completed.

This double authority conferred on the department of justice by th res- i.tiitinn ureatly concerns holders of the lands, wno nave obtained their, tracts from the railroad iajriolation j of these terms. ise:.riy i uu.ono acres j have been sold t7 tne rauroau 111 viu latlon of these terms, and much of these lniiilH contain the most valuable timber In the state. The possessors have sustained themselves witn tne belief that the courts will regard them as Innocent purchasers. But the government will contend that It was' the business of the buyers tD know the restrictions placed by congress on the sale of the land?, that many of them bought fro mthe railroad before the government had Issued patents, and that deeds violating th? terms of the grants cannot convey title and are void. WmtliiiK I Uri'uil. The wording of the Fulton resolu tion is broad, and authorizes the at torney general to institute practically any suits that he may deem expedi ent, "Including the claim on behalf of the government that the lands granted by each of said acts respec tively, or any part thereof, have been and are hereby forrelted to the Unit ed States by reason or any breaches or violations of any of the terms or conditions of eUuer or any of the said acts." - The resolution also authorizes the attorney general to institute suits to ascertain the rights of tho United States as to the lands granted to the Coos Bay Wagon Road Company for a wagon road from itoseuurg to coos Bay. By the terms of that grant the lands were to be sold for not more than $2.50 an acre and In lots of not more than 1G0 acres to eac'a purchas e. 1 These restrictions have been violat ed like those attached to the railroad , lands, by sale in bulk and at higher prices than $2.50 an acre and by re-! fiicul if tho nnmminv In sell In niinlf- cants for land at 2.50 an acre.
