The new silver certificates, issued
by the united states of New York and
New England, of which the West is
erroniously supposed to be an inte-
gral part, are not legal tender They
do not represent the $96,OOO,OOO silver
coin now IN the Treasury, but only such
as is deposited in the Treasury by the
people, in exchange for certificates.
The certificates, however, will, at any
time, command silver, at the Treasury,
which is legal tender and receivable
for all government dues, and while
that is fact, the S96,O00,O0O now in
the hands Of the Treasurer and all ac-
CretiOns thereto remain intact, SO far
as the silver certificates are concerned.
The bill as it passed the House, made
$40 the lowest denomination of GER
tificates, covered all the silver in the
Treasury, and made them legal tender
for all government dues, including
principal and interest on the bonded
debt. Eastern members of the Senate
had sufficient influence IN that body to
amend the bill and force its adoption
by the House in the shape that 1t be-.
came a law.

important Ruling on the Desert Land Act.

The Cheyenne Leader reports the
case of a desert land entry of much
Importance, 1t arose on the coustruc-
tion of the wood reclaim" in the des-
6rt land act, and the point was wheth-
er the bringing Of water on the land
was a sufficient compliance with the
law, or whether IN addition, crops
must actually have been raised before
FINAL proof could be made. Of course,
Commissioner Sparks held to that in
depreciation which would impose the
greatest burden and restriction upon
the settler, and ruled that agricultu-
raj crops were required, in addition to
the reclamation by bringing water
upon the land. Bul he was reversed
by Secretary Lamar, who wrote to
Sparks: by the terms of the desert
land act the land is to be reclaimed by
conducting water upon it, The first
question to be determined is the sig
ni6GauCe of the word reclaim as it Is
used in the act. In the interpreta-
tion of statutes, the rule is that,
words are generally used in their
usual and most known Specification.
Hence, applying the general meaning
to the word reclaim as given by Web
steri and the meaning of the statute
is: That the desert lands shall be re-
dueed 10 an agricultural state by con-
Quoting water upon the same. ItdOes
not follow however, that an agricul-
tural crop must be raised in order TO
show that such condition has been
arrived at In other words it is not
necessary to show the results of re-
clamation in order to prove the fact of
reclamation. Entertaining the views
! do upon this question, / hereby re.

CROOK vs., MILES


The Washington specials dehial
that Geronimo's surrender was not nc.
tompanied by conditions, is not true.
Lieut.. Gatewood, who left Fort Apa-
che in June, for Sonora, as Miles en-
voy, knowing that Gor6mmo would
not accept unconditional terms, was
instructed bv Gen. Miles what to do
IN the premises and. accordingly, exc
cutcd his mission, The statements
made in the Washington dispatch
that Geronimo and his band had been
driven to the last ditch and would
have been forced TO surrender is
SIMPLY bosh. Geronimo could and
would have remained on the war path,
indefinitely, had not his terms been
accepted, and it is nonsense for Capt,
Lawton to say that the surrender was
not accompanied with terms. He was
not present al tti6 time, nor was he
within fifty miles Of the place when
Gatewood treated with Gerdnirno.
The feeling engendered against Gen.
Miles has arisen through a state of
jealousy Oh the part of Gen. Crook
and his friends, because of Miles sue,

against John Il. Dorman, libel for wages, In

Bailey was u seaman on board the schooner
and Dormnn was the vessels owner,

wreck he remained 13 days on the Long
Island coast In the employ of the respon-
dent gathering up the anchors, spars, tim
bers, &c., that drifted ashore. For this
work he claims Il per day as salvage pay.
Bailey lives At Milton and Dorman ut

Senator Fair Visiting WiImisg4O
AMdusGrIes-LOOkin nj Gar SrOD,


ndustries-LOOking at Car Shops.
United States Senator James G. Fair of
Nevada, one of the great bonanza quartet
of. the Pacific slope, was in this city Thurs
day, arriving from Washington on one
of the noon trains. He was accompanied
by Evan J. Coleman, his financial man
ager, and by his private secretary. Imme-
diately upon their arrival the pnrty took
coach and were driven away from the
depot. They did not reappear until S
o'clock in the afternoon, when they drove
up to the depot and prepared to take the
5.22 train for New York, which wLisked
them away from this city.
A representative of the GAZETTE saw
the senator at tho depot, and inquired
whether his visit was on official business.
He said it was not. He had come on
general business and had stopped to take
look at some of the establishments of
the city. He said he had visited the cal
shops of the Harlan Il Hollingswoth
Company and the jackson & Sharp Com
pany, and also the ship-ynrds of the
former and the Pusey & Jones Company.
The object of his mission the senator
stated TO be to see the car shops of the
city particularly in order to get an idea as
to What they could do. He stated that he
would need considerable material before
ong for railroad in which he has a
leading interest in California, and il was
this reason that had brought him to the
car shops here to see their facilities for
turning out the work he wants
The reporter remarked that he had
thought perhaps the Wilmington ship
yards would have another yacht to build
as result of the senator's inspection. He
replied;
Il have thought of that for some time.
A friend of mine not long since showed
me very beautiful and excellent model
of yacht, which he highly recon-
mended and which interested me very
much"
He did not get further in his conversa-
ton, as the time for taking the train had
arrived He said he intended visiting
Wilmington again before long, but not on
his return trip from New York.
During the afternoon Senator Fair
drove to the Old Swedes buryirg ground,
where he visited the tomb of Mrs. Secre-
tary Bayard and Catharine Bayard.
Before departing he deposited n beautiful
wreath of flowers upon the grave and left
them there.

A PROPHET ON PEACHES.
EIe Thinks the Trees Will Bloom TOO
EARLY.

q. o. Blake, the Kansas weather prophet,
replies in his paper, The Future. pub
lished at Richland, Kansas, to nm inquiry
from j. %. Stansbnry IL Son of Baltimore,
regarding the outlook for spring peas and
peaches. He figures about a month too
early on blossoning peach trees, ii his
"farther north is meant to apply to this
Peninsula. But here is what he says:
''As a large part of the weather in
March will be warm and forcing, it fol-
lows that the buds of trees will start very
early, except in the fur north, and espe-
cially so as there is but little frost in the
ground, Notwithstanding the very cold
weather, as the ground, in most places,
has been covered with snow during the
cold spell, hence the frost will be out of
the ground soon after the frost disap-
pears. But this early start of the trees
will be premature, and will be misfor-
tune in many localities, as il will be fol
lowed by sharp frosts, which will cause
large amount of damage to forward and
tender buds and blossoms, as well as all
kinds of tender vegetation. While the
damage will be extensive, yet these severe
spring frosts will not appear in all parts
of the country at the same time, and many
Hlt is impossible for me to know the
topography of each locality well enough
to tell where the frosts will be the most
severe, but l think the most severe of
these spring frosts will extend as far
south as Tennessee and North Carolina,
though in many places there / think
that owing to the warm weather in March
the peach and cherry trees will have
shed their blossoms before the frosts
arrive, and do not think the frosts will
be severe enough. to hurt the fruit after
the trees are out of blossom. But in
many places farther north the trees will |
be in blossom when the frosts arrive.
I'm Michigan there will probably be |
many places where the frosts will not do |
serious damage, as, being farther north,
the buds will not start SO early, and as |
Michigan is mostly surrounded by the |
great lakes, the temperature is much |
modified thereby. Indeed, during the /
great blizzard on and after january 7th |
of this year, while it was bitterly cold in /
Wisconsin, with strong north west |
wind, it was quite moderate on the east |
shore of Lake Michigan, as the air had |
large amount of heat from the
water while crossing the lake--so much
SO that one of my subscribers in Michigan
wrote me about the goth of January that
my calculations were not proving correct,
us l had stated january would be colder
than December, and he wrote that it had
been warmer.
But on the general average l do not
think it will be favorable year for such
fruit as is easily injured by frost, Though
much of it will survive in favorable d.
calities."
