This decision Of tha court is final, and
will dispose ot the q,-ston definitely as to
who shall have the certificates. All the
Democratic candidates for the senate and
house will receive their certificates
The principal point gained 10y the Demo
Gratis in the decision is the fact that the scn-
ate will be Democratic, which will prevent
the Republican legislature from redistrict-
ing the state for congressional purposes:
recognizing amy Of the state institu.
tions, or indulging in any other par

Liable to tuse!tIe Titles.

FARGO, Oak, Dee li.-The Argus reports
the opinion of able attorneys to the effect
that if the reported decision of the United
States supreme court restraining the treas
urer of Trail county, Oak, from
collecting taxes against Northern Pa
ctic ground that has not secured
title because the cost of survey is not
paid, is correct, it will msctte the title to
some of the best city property and greatest
wheat farms of north Dakota. 1t would
virtually determine the celebrated Paronta
case, wherein a half-brced claimed a large
section of the city, in favor of his estate.
II would also rlnsetile th2 title to the lands
of the Darlymple and Grandin farms i
full text of the decision is awaited with
much anxiety.

Action.

When the Soldiers Home commission
visited this city last summer they in
formed the local committee that they had
adopted "a regular schedule of points
and would rate cYary site they inspected
as regards location pceessiblii;y, drains
age, 'wuter supply, soil timber sanitary
features proximity of building material,
etc; that on dc scale adopted 100 was
perfect and ANYTHING less than perfect
was rated at the proper per cent. This
statement was encouraging TO the local
committee, as they estimated that the site
selected here wuuid rate 100 on all points
named unless it was rs to the extent of
the tract offered and that defect the com
mittec pledged the commissioners to rem
edy by raising by subscription a sufficient
sum to purchase additional land to satisfy
the commission, adjoining the site most
favorably looked upon, and pledging the
Improvement which would bring the To-
cation up to All requirements. Prior to
the EicctihS oi inc commissioners 'heJ

board. This new law, had it passed to
perfection, would have given us set
tied policy at least until the con-
vening of the next legislature.
But the old Jaw Is subject TO
changes, new rulings from the board
with every change OF the moon. Or,
more correctly speaking, we have no
law on the land question that is not
subject to. change monthly by that
great law-making power known Ia
Texas and throughout the civilized
world az the Texas land board. The
law as passed by the Nineteenth legis-
lature Is not so Objectionable, but the
land board have disregarded Its pro.
visions in the past, and we can ex.
pect nothing better from II In future,
as they are the same identical set Of
WORTHLESS who ran the machine before.

Waco Day The governors veto of
the land bill 10 bonanza for the big
cattle syndicates, whose herds are
grazing in the Northwest. The land
bill would have leased the lands at
five cents an acre. With the bill We
toed the present land board has new
tenure OF existence. 1t will return to
Its old policy OF demanding eight cents
an acre--a price that will not be paid
to any extent, and the result Is the big
herds will stay where they are, aud
the small cattleman as well as the man
with a hoe will not 90 Vest.
WE MUST WAIT AND SEE.
Austin Statesman The land bill
was bad enough, but does the record
of the land board assure us that it will
grow to be any better?
