ago, but the Northern Pacific railroad
claims it was not filed until after their
right to the land had accrued. The rail
road company were successful in the
land department of the United States,
and then Mr.. Peronto took it into the
courts. and was defeated. He now ap.
peals to the supreme court of the terrific.
ry, and it is likely that it will go to the
supreme court of the United States.

Moody County Enterprise: Thomas
Fletcher dropped in the other day and
gave us some interesting figures on the
amount and yield OF his crops the pres.
ent season. He had 100 acres of wheat
which yielded 1920 bushels by machine
measure, equal to 1900 bushels by weight.
Thlrty-three acres Of oats yielded 1900
bushels. OF barley he had 200 bushels
from SIX acres. lie also raised 800 bushels
Of flax on this years breaking. His corn
crop he estimates at 1000 bushels, max
ing total grain yield of 500 bushels.
This is certainly good showing. Mr..
Fletcher has raised good grain crops
every year, but has found that his cattle
and hogs pay him better than wheat ev-
cry time.

The commissioner of the land Office, in
his annual report, states that the lands
now embraced within the limits of the
public domain amount to 90O,O00,0OO
acres, including Alaska. Herecommends
that the preemption law be abolished, as
the homestead laws cover all cases now
arising. The public sales of land last
year amounted to 1888, 900 acres, embrac
ing 5,Ol6 acres near Toledo, o., which
were sold for Sl6,735. an average Of 1888
per acre, Commissioner Mcfarland
submits an estimate for salaries and con-
tingent expenses for the next fiscal year,
amounting in the aggregate to S453,94O
which is an increase OF the amount ap-
propriated for the current fiscal year of
S33,940. The increase includes $4,000 for
the assistant commissioner.
The democrats have gained ten con-
gressmen 30 for, and the republicans
have gained two, giving the latter net
loss Of eight, which more then wipes out
the majority in the last house of repre-
Sentatives. 1t is therefore important
that the ereeches which exist in the re-
publican ranks ia several congressional
districts throughout the country should
be healed at once. No such foolishness
as IS going on in the third Wisconsin
district can be tolerated. The next house
of representatives may have to elect q
president of the United States, and will
have other work before it which is almost
as important. To give the democrats a
majority would practically throw the
presidential election into their hands,
and the only hope for republican success
would be found IN democratic blunder.

Mrs. ScoviIle Interviewed.

CHICAGO, May 11.-Mrs. Scovllle was inter
viewed, after talk with her husband. She
says she had dreaded it very much, on accoun
of the temper shown by him. He had been
writing her very abusive letters, using such
epithets as she did not care to quote. Among
other things, she says he wrote her thatif she
did not stop lecturing and working in behalf
of her brother he would make it so hot for
the three Guiteaus that the two who are not
hung would wish they were.
She had realized 5000 from her New York
lectures, and was to have appeared in Boston
and elsewhere, but for Scoville's interference.
The husband wanted to get possession of
their daughter Bertha, in order to get the
mother also. In their talk she told Scoville
his attempts at coercion must cease; that she
proposed to rent home for herself and lee
ture to save her brother. She said, eff he
does not cease his interference will give GER
tain facts to the newspapers, and j ohm Guiteau
will tell what he knows about Scoville. For
the sake of my children withhold the worst
for the present." She declared Scoville was
more reasonable than she had expected and
hoped there would be 40 more trouble. Sco-
vile was not seen.
MI and Mrs. Scoville had pleasant and
friendly meeting to-day at the Brunswick
hotel, and after some private talk, Mrs. SEQ.
vile gave up her room and they went to
lunch together.

Afraid TO Utter HIS sentin.ents.

ST.. LOUIS, May ia short time since
James o. Broadhead, an old comrade and
political co.worker with Frank P. Blair, was
invited and accepted the invitation to respond
to the following toast at the banquet of the
Army of the Tennessee: missouri: Her bright
sgis borne by Lyon and Blair still lights the
way to greatness" Mr.. Broadhead yesterday
sent a letter to the executive committee
declining to respond to the toast, giving as
his reason, as alleged by those who have seen
the letter, that anything he might say in re-
spouse to the sentiment would serve to exas-
perate and not allay the feeling still existing
between the northern and southern sections of
the country.
This has caused good deal of comment
among the members of the Army of the Ten
nessee, and among Mr.. Broadhead's friends
and opponents in this city, and 1t seems to be
the pretty general opinion that the declaration
clearly means that Col. Broadhead will be a
candidate for congress in the Ninth district,
formerly the Second or Wells district, in this
city, and that he does not wish to place him
self in position where he might say some
thing distasteful to the confederate element.

REED CLOSES AND THE GOVERNMENT OPENS.
WASHINGTON, May 1.-The argument on
the bill of exceptions in. the case of Guiteau
was resumed this morning and Col. Corkhill
opened for the prosecution. After detailing
the circumstances of the shooting he passed
on the question of jurisdiction and pro-
nounoed as absurd the position taken that be-
cause President Garfield was not allowed to
remain in Washington and die, therefore the
court has no jurisdiction. Corkhill discussed
this question at considerable length. He quo
ted the decision of the supreme court of Ten
nessee which held that the offense
was committed at the place Of the blow,
though death occurred elsewhere. He argued
that the evidence admitted for the prosecution
to rebuff the defense of insanity was compe-
tent and properly admitted, that it was justi-
fable in rebuttal for the prosecution to go to
any length in showing that the acts Of
the defendant which have been offered as evil
dence of insanity were rather
the product of immortality. Counsel discussed
at length the exception to the evidence of
Mrs. Dunmire, Guiteau's former wife, claim
ing that the domain of confidential COMMUNE
cations between husband and wife had not
been invaded by the prosecution. At the con-
clusion of Corkhill's address, Davidge imme-
diately began the closing argument for the
prosecutions, addressing himself to the ques-
tion of jurisdiction. Court adjourned before
Da7idge concluded his argument.

WASHINGTON, May 11.-At the Brewers
convention various reports were received and
adopted. Resolutions were passed asking the
government to encourage the production of
lighter drinks by releasing the manufacturer
from illiberal restrictions, and imposing no
more excise on raw material or product than
the wants of the people demand. The resolu-
tions conclude by saying that while the asso-
citation is averse to mingling politics with
business, its members pledge themselves to
overlook party affiliations and act together in
defeating the. candidate of any party that PAN
ders to fanaticism by supporting prohibitory
laws.
The committee on restrictive legislation, to
which had been submitted various petitions
for assistance in resistance to the encroach-
ments of the enemies of malt liquor in the
United States, through its chairman, present
ed report. 1t advises the appropriation of
the following sums for the purposes set forth:
$4,000 subject to the draft of Thoms D. Haw-
ley, Detroit, Mich, to be used in opposing
the passage of certain legislation now pend.
ing in the state legislature of Mich
$1,000 subject to the draft of Peter
Leber, INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, as trustee, to be
used in the defense of the brewers of Indiana
against oppressive legislation; $1,000 to be
paid in trust to Christian Maginnis, Cedar
Rapids, Iowa, to aid the brewers in Iowa in
their struggle against hostile legislative en-
actments; $500 to be paid in trust to Jno.
Walruff, Lawrence, Kas., to be expended in
the interest of the trade in that state.
At the afternoon session it was decided to
send delegation to the State Brewers con-
vention of Illinois, at Chicago, june next.
The committee on malt packing, and on sack
inp and the question of tare made q report
which was adopted that fare of eight pounds
shall be demanded for sacking, etc., on each
and every bale of hops weighing 225
pounds or less. In case tare on any bale ex-
ceeds eight pounds it shall be the duty OF each
brewer to deduct the excess. The committee
deems 1t necessary that three-fourths of all
the brewers in the United States should give
their consent to, and bind themselves to carry
out these suggestions. The secretary was
instructed to forward each brewer a copy of
all the resolutions shaped by the convention
in relation to this matter. When the consent
