In general, there are but three ways
which title TO government land in Wash.
ington Territory can be obtained, viz
Under the homestead and pre-emption
laws and the timber land act
In each OF these several ways
any properly qualified person may
obtain 100 acres OF land. Now,
these various companies own from 5000
acres to $4,000 acres each of land that a
few years ago was Government land.
Each OF these vast estates included from
so to 53s quarter sections OF land repre-
senting u similar number OF entries.
These figures are taken from the assess
ment rolls OF 1884, and, OF course, fall
very far short OF revealing the enormous
extent OF the present land holdings OF
the mill companies, rs the same methods
which enabled one company to acquire
Sc, 100 acres have been diligently prac,
ticed during the last two years and are

THE GREEK.TURKIsH MIDDLE

With both the Greek and the Turkish
Governments the cry is peace, peace
but all the same there is no peace. The
forces OF both nations have been making
faces at each other on the frontier for
some time past, and yesterday the ball
opened by an exchange OF artillery shots
and the rout OF Turkish troops from posi-
tions which they sought to occupy. Mean
Greece, ready TO yank her into compli-
ance with their ultimatum whenever ii
shall appear necessary. What a
nice mess would result IRON tho
opening OF hostilites in earnest be-
tween Greece and Turkey. Servia would
be bound 10 assist Greece, and that
would bring Prince Alexander and his
Bulgarians into the fight again. And
then Austria would have to help Servia,
and Germany and Russia would be forced
to support Bulgaria and Greece, and with
mendous war would be precipitated. The
great Powers, however, do not want
war-at least not at present. Hence the
restraint put upon Greece 10 prevent that
country from precipitating conflict that
would set all Europe to fighting. But
Greece seems determined to fight, any.
how, and wants 10 begin right now
Once started, and with the allies OF both
nations drawn into the picnic, as they
may be, the Lord only knows when and
where it would stop.

THE FISHERIES SQUABBLE.

Governor Robic, OF Maine, ~ reported
in the dispatches yesterday, is emphatic
in the expression OF his belief that the
seizure OF the two American fishing ves-
sells "was blunder on the part OF the
Canadian Government, an outrage on
our flag, and gross injustice to the
fishermen and owners" II begins
to look rs though Governor Rcbic
might be right. As we under.
stand the matter, the vessels were
seized, not because caught in the act Of
taking fish where they had no right to
cast their nets, but because found within
the so-called three.mile limit, whittier
they had gone TO purchase bait and ice,
the sale OF which, within that limit, had
been forbidden to American fishermen by
the Dominion Government. Bait and ice
are simply articles OF commerce.,
the right to buy which does
not depend upon treaty. 1t is
liity-siX years since, after n long course
OF discriminatory and retaliatory legisla-
llOi, tIc ulFtCl lIltit bclNccu tiic tiiitcei
States and the British West Indian and
North American colonies was thrown
open. This was done by proclamation,
in accordance with legislation by Congress
and by Parliament. The commercial
rights OF the United States in British
North American ports have nothing to do
with the treaty OF 1878. In fact, at the
time the treaty was made, we did not
have the right to trade with those ports.
The United States do have that right
now. On certain articles OF trade, as ice
and bait, Canada puts n prohibition.
1t rests in the hands OF Congress 10
return, ii it chooses, TO the old policy oi
retaliation, but probably that will be
found unnecessary. Doubtless the Brit
ish Government will hold that the pro
hibition OF the sale OF bait 10 Americans
is against imperial policy. Ii the pres
cnt activity of the Dominion authorities
continues, the home Government vii
find il TO its interest to sit down upor
them gently but firmly. Ii not, tn,
remedy rests with Congress.

A SIGNIFICANT ITEM.

The dispatch published in our tele-
graphic columns to-day, announcing the
recall OF German army officers travelling
in France, is significant. 1t is another
reminder Of the fact that the sur
face friendliness between France and
Germany IL only a pretense, and
that both nations are anxious to
complete the unfinished struggle oil
1901. 1t is impossible 10 cement
lasting peace between these old enemies
without another war. All that diplomacy
can do is to postpone the inevitable out
break. France has never forgiven Eng
land for Waterloo, and England did not
| take advantage of Waterloo to dismember
French territory. Expcdiency may pro-
| long the truce with Germany, but Alsace
and Lorraine block the way to a perma-
nent peace. French maps even yet do
not mark those provinces rs integral parts
OF the German Empire. French children
are taught that the duty OF France ~ to
redeem its lost citizens from foreign
bondage. 1t needs but II little frank
talk with individual FrenChmen to be
convinced that the present peace is
only an armistce. On the part oi the
Germans the feeling is the same. ASK
an officer Of the German army where he
expecta TO see his next service
and he answers; SIN France
And hc will further say Last time
we did not 90 far enough. we
took Alsacc and Lorraine and
, milliari francs. Next time we vii
take - mlliards, with Belfor
and Sancy. We will cripple
:, Fra go that she can make no NOR
troub' for fifty years" The feeling OF
both sides is natural enough. If England
should succeed in taking Maine from US
u we should never rest until we got it back
Alsaco and Lorraine are relatively mucl
u more important than Maine. They ar
y q prize which neither country will cor
II sent to give up while it has tn
n strength to fight. For fifteen year
II France has been striving 10 put herself
condition to venture n renewal
the struggle. For fifteen year
Germany has been improving Inc
, matchless military system. Whethe
l., the conflict comes now or later, is merel
a question OF preparation, not OF will.

THAT PROPOSED AMENDMENT.

The dispatches state that Chairman
Tucker OF the House Judiciary Com
mittee, has been instructed to report
favorably an amendment to the Consti-
tntion, declaring polvgamy unlawful in
the States and Territories OF the Union.
The full text Of the proposed amendment
will be found in our telegraphic columns.
There is 10 reason that we can conceive
OF why the Constitution should not be so
amended. Certainly, it can do no harm,
and it may do some good, even ii by 1t
nothing more is accomplished than
throwing the weight of the Constitution
itself against polygamy." Such an
amendment was strongly advocated by
Utah Gcntiles many years ago, and we
cannot help thinking that its adoption
would have had beneficial effect, since
numerous Mormons who subsequently
entered into polygamous relations, might
have deemed it wisdom to avoid the com
mission of what the Constitution itsel
so plainly and uncquivocally declare,
against. But better late than never
The adoption Of this amendment woulc
leave the Mormons without the SHADOW
OF peg on which to hang the plei
that polygamy il not practiccd il
violation OF the Constitution, AM
il would also be notice scrve'
upon them that the Government ha
fully determined to wipe out this fou
stain upon its escutcheon, ut whateve
cost. BY all means, let the Constituto
br so amended.

\ LUCKY COLORED MAN.

In tho Senate yesterday Mr. Riddle
berger offered resolution calling for all
papers relating TO the nomination Of
Matthews as Recorder OF Deeds Tor the
District OF Columbia but Edmunds, Mil
Ter and others objected TO the reception
OF the resolution as being executive busi-
ness, and il was declared to be out of
order. Matthews is colored man, and
il confirmed, will succeed Fred Douglass,
who rendered his resignation to tho
President on the 5th OF last January.
His nomination is said to have given rise
to considerable unfavorablc COM
ment by the Democratic citizens OF
Washington, rs well rs Democrats
from other sections ol the country,
not only because the position is a lucra.
tive and important one, but because
Matthews is nonresident oi the dis.
