THE GREAT OIL FIELDS OF CALIFORNIA
CONTINUE TO YIELD PHENOMENAL DIV
IDENDS TO THOSE FORTUNATE STOCK
HOLDERS WHO WERE FAR-SEEING
ENOUGH TO INVEST WHEN STOCKS
ERE LOW.
Another opportunity,"however, is offered
Id the .
GLOVER LEAF
OIL COMPANY
which has large holding of land in the
Antloch OH District, within 40 miles of San
Francisco.
Tills company Is now drilling their first
well (down over 400 feet), and offer a lim-
I ited amount of stock at $1.50 per share. Par
value being $10, this is equal to 15 cents for
$1 shares.
THERE IS NO INVESTnENT NOW OPEN
TO THE PUBLIC WHICH YIELDS SUCH
PRINCELY DIVIDENDS AS OIL. It is pay
ing more than Gold, Copper and Silver
combined.
Gold has made many millionaires in Cal
ifornia, yet oil Is destined to make still more.
Many oil stocks that first sold at $1.00 per
share have since sold at 128, some at $95,
some at $203 and In one case at $1,500.
OIL INVESTMENTS are more safe and
profitable than the usual run of business
open to small investors.
THE BOSTON FINANCIAL RECORD
SAYS: "HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVE
MADE MORE MONEY THE PAST YEAR IN
CALIFORNIA OIL FIELDS THAN THEY
EVER DKB Ail ED THEY WOULD BE
WORTH," and you may be In the same
happy condition within a year from now If
you invest in the Clover Leaf Oil Company.
Buy stock now at $1.50 per share;
price will be advanced to $2.00
March 21st.

IOWA STATE SCHOOLS
Board of Control May Eventually
Have Supervision of Them.
Special to The Journal.
Dcs Moines, lowa, March 8. —One of the
functions of the board of control of lowa
is the biennial examination of the rec
ords and doings of the boards of regents
or trustees, in charge of the educational
institutions of the state, the state uni
versity at lowa City, the state college of
agriculture at Ames, and the state nor
mal school at Cedar Falls. The board
of control is required to make its next
biennial report to the governor and the
legislature by Nov. 15, the report cover
ing the biennial period ending June 30,
3901. In this report wjjl be incorporated
the reports on the findings at the educa
tional instftutions of the state.
When the last examination was made
by the board in 1899, it passed strictures
on the methods at lowa City, where it
was alleged there was some wastefulness.
Should there be a repetition of this when
the next report is made, or an exhibition
of anything savoring of extravagance in
the management of any of the three in
stitutions named, there will be a strong
movement to have the schools placed un
der the control of the board.
There is much talk of a movement of
this kind, and at the last session of the
legislature many members urged the wis
dom of it. The general success of the
board in managing the other institutions
has not lessened the strength of the
movement.

SUGAR TRUST'S GRIP
It Gets Public Lands in Hawaii at
Merely Nominal Rates.
NO CHECK ON THE COMMISSIONER
Senator HansltronKli'M ReHolution for
au Inve»tiK»tioii Is Di-li-nu-il
-Hnrliur Hill.
Special to The Journal.
Washington, March B.—Since the last
congress assembled, many letters from in
dividuals and business tirms in Hawaii
reached the committee on public lands of
the senate, asking that congress investi
gate the Hawaiian public land system,
and in accordance with those letters a
resolution was introduced in the closing
days of the session, providing that three
members from the public lands committee
s&ould visit the islands and make a re
port to congress next winter, together
with such a bill as in their judgment would
meet the demands of the case. The reso
lution under the rules of the senate went
to the committee on contingent expenses,
which refused to report it, and so it died
with the session at noon on March 4.
Towards daylight on the morning of the
| last day of the session, Senator Hans
, brough, chairman of the public lands eom
i mittee, realizing that the resolution was
1 dead, made a speech in which he washed
| the hands of his committee of all responsi
i bility for the continuation of the present
i deplorable public lands situation in Ha
-1 waii. His committee had done all that
| it could, and he wanted to fasten the re
, sponsibility for delay where it belonged,
i on the committee on contingent expenses.
In the Hawaiian islands there about
| 2,000,000 acre* of public land, half of it
i being very fertile. This land is under the
i control of a land commissioner, appointed
1 by the governor of the islands, and re
| sponsible only to him. No reports are
i ever made to congress or to the secretary
i of the interior, and nobody in this country
1 has any way of finding out ofpcially how
the public lands commissioner is doing his
work. It is known, however, that a very
large part of the lands in question have
been leased for long terms of years, at
merely nominal rates, to the sugar trust,
whose headquarters are in San Francisco.
This sugar trust is understood to be all
powerful with Governor Dole of Hawaii,
j and through him undoubtedly controls the
j public lands commissioner.
Two members of the contingent expenses
committee which refused to report the
resolution for an investigation of the ques
tion are Senators Jones of Arkansas and
Jones of Nevada. The former naturally
opposes everything which the republican
party want?: the latter is understood to be
friendly to the sugar trust, and to be will
ing to serve it in every legitimate way
in the senate.
This sugar trust is a part of the San
Francisco syndicate, which for many years
has controlled and financed every' im
portant movement on the Pacific coast or
in the islands off the coast. Jt is this
syndicate, or one section of it, which had
its grip so securely on Cape Nome, and
caused the present Noyesi-McKenzie scan
dal there. Beyond any question, the fact
that Senator Hansbrough was the author
of the resolution asking for the public
lands investigation explains why Senator
Jones of Nevada opposed it.
I have talked with the secretary of the
interior and with the commissioner of the
general land office, both of whom say that
their department has not the slighest
knowledge of how the public lands of Ha
waii are managed. No report* are made
to them, and so far as this question is
concerned. Hawaii is a foreign land.
Without any doubt, some such resolu
| tion as that which failed during the late
session will have to be passed some time;
and it should be before the lands have
been wasted, for not only has the public
lands commissioner of the islands the
right to lease to whomsoever he pleases
but he may exchange the public lands for
private lands, and do a number of other
things which are clearly contrary to any
proper management of his trust.
In his speech to the senate, Senator
Hansbrough said that it had not been his
intention to ask to go to Hawaii had the
resolution passed, nor was he particular
who went. But he did think that some
body ought to go in order that public
matters in this new territory might be
placed on a safer and more just footing
than they occupy at present.
In all probability there will be no ex
tra session of congress, and yet the ghost
of the extra session talk has been tem
porarily raised by a dispatch to the New
York Evening Post from Havana. The
Post is one of the more reliable newspa
pers in America, and its Havana news is
especially trustworthy. Its Havana cor
respondent interviewed Governor Wood,
who said that if the Cuban constitutional
convention did not accept the Cuban
declaration of congress, there would be
an extra session during the late summer
and early fall. And the Post adds that
Wood made this statement to officers of
the constitutional convention.
Congressman Loren Fletcher, his sister
and his niece have gone to Florida and
Cuba for a two or three weeks' trip, after
which they will return to Washington for
a few days, and then start for Minneapolis.
Mr. Fletcher is pretty tired out after the
hard work of the short session and needs
a rest.
I asked him about his plans regarding
a new postoffice building for Minneapolis,
and he replied.
I have no plans. I simply want to do
whatever the majority of the people of Min
neapolis want. During the late session of
congress I introduced a bill providing for a
new story for our present building. This
was entirely for the purpose of bringing the
matter before the people in a way to pro
voke disclssion. I have no ideas of my own
to carry out, and shall be content to do any
thing which will please a majority of the
patrons of the office.
It has been my personal opinion that it
would be better for us to build an additional
story for the present building, and then, at
our leisure, to take up the matter of a new
building; but this opinion I have never sought
to emphasize in any way. During the sum
mer I shall hope to find out what publin
sentiment demands, and then I shall know
what to do next winter.
■A new story could be provided for at one
session, and in my judgment this would not
stand in the way of a new building. A two
million appropriation for a new building
would be secured, if at all, after much hard
work and considerable delay. . Perhaps ten
years would elapse before the building wouW
be ready for use, even if the appropriation
could be made next winter, which is prob
ably too early a date even to think about.
1 have not been able to believe that a new
story would interfere in any way with
our plans for a new building; but, as I have
said, I shall not obtrude my own opinion in
any way upon our people, but shall ask them
to decide what they want without reference
to me.
Mr. Fletcher had a long letter from S.
B. Lovejoy yesterday. Mr. Lovejoy walked
a mile on the day the letter was written,
and he says he is considerably stronger
than when he went south. For a time he
tried horseback riding, but this exercise
was entirely too violent for him, and he
was compelled to forego it.
Senator Nelson of Minnesota was con
siderably disappointed over the defeat of
the river and harbor bill. It was his first
appearance as the manager of a very im
portant measure, and naturally he was
proud of it and wanted the bill to pass.
He probably felt especially displeased over
the fact that the bill was beaten, not on its
merits, but was talked to death by Sen
ator Carter. The fact that Senator Car
ter and Senator Nelson occupy opposing
sides of the Noyes-McKenzie case only
adds to the unpleasant feature of the situ
ation. Senator Nelson is not the chair
man of the senate commerce committee, to
which the river and harbor bill was re
ferred, but he was placed in charge of the
bill by Senator Frye, the committee chair
man, who "was busy with other matters.
In some quarters Senator Carter is be
ilieved to have talked the bill to death be-

cause of the refusal of the house to admit
the irrigation features proposed by the
semi-arid stites; in others his attitude
is explained by the statement that he was
acting in harmony with administration
views, the president being well known to
stand in opposition to the large sum which
the bill carried. Whatever the reasons,
however, it is not likely that any tears
will be shed in the country at large over
the defeat of the bill, although the way
in which the defeat was brought about
may be open to severe criticism. The
present rules of the senate, with no de
bate limit, and no way of forcing a vote
on any measure, smack entirely too much
of the one-man power, and it is no won
der that Senator Platt of Connectlcutt, is
now trying to have the senate rules
amended so as to prevent any repetition
in the future of the Carter move. Senator
Platt will not succeed, however, for the
senate is bound hand and foot to its tra
ditions and precedents, and will not de
part from them.

Illinois manufacturers of articles exported
to Russia will contest before the board of
appraisers, and in the courts, the validity of
the secretary's decision that Russian sugar
exports receive a bounty from the home gov
ernment.
Secretary Hay has received a cablegram
from Minister Conger, at Peking, stating
that the reports that have reached America
to the effect that Mr. Squires, the secretary
of the lesatiou at the United Sates embassy,
was guilty of looting, were based upon mis
information.
A statement prepared at the bureau of sta
tistics shows that, during the last year, the
export value of American goods exported to
Russia, not affected by the recent decree of
the Russian government in retaliation for
the countervailing duty imposed by this gov
ernment on Russian sugar, was $7,598,U20,
while that affected amounted to 12,872,429.
COFFEE CORNER DENIED.
New York, March 8. —Members of the coffee
exchange as well as the firm of Lewisohn
Bros., ridicule the idea that there is a corner
in coffee, or any attempt to corner it, though
they admit that there has been good buying
for several weeks by the Lewisohiis and
others, who think coffee is too cheap.
