another bill will be prepared and in.
trOduced during the present session,
covering the lands which you mention.
My sympathies are entirely with the
settlers and purchasers of these lands
who have bought and improved them
for homes, and in favor of removing
any cloud which may rest upon tn cir
titles" The REGISTER has already
expressed its satisfaction with the pO-
sitiOn Senator Ingalls, has taken in this
matter and needs add nothing further
at this time, except to repeat what has
so often been said; there is no question
but that the titles OF purchasers will be
confirmed.
We have received brief by Judge
Lawrence, "In the matter of the ap-
plication of the Settlers Protective
Association of Kansas, to the HOnOra-
BILE Secretary of the Interior, that he
request the Honorable AttOrney-Gen-
eral to commence q suit on behalf of
the United States, in the Circuit Court
of the United States for the District of
Kansas, to cancel certain patents is
sued to the NJ. X. Il T. r. r. Co., for
certain even numbered sections of land
in Allen county, in that State" The
document is very long one and we
have not yet had time to read it. We
notice, however, that in closing up the
argument the learned Judge remarks
as follows: LANDS have been unlaw-
fully patented to the railroad company
which in some instances have been
sold by the company to innocent pur-
chasers, who have made homes thereon,
without interfering with any home
stead or pre-emptiOn claimant. This
application is not intended to interfere
Nth them. As to them Congress can
provide that they may recover back
the purchase money, illegally exacted
from them by the r. r. Co., and then
by law give them a homestead free of
cost. Why should they be required, or
eUen permitted, to lose the purchase
money illegally enacted Of Mems +
So, they can be protected in the pur-
chase of even more land than is allowed
for any ordinary homestead" We on
ly quote this as additional evidence on
the point we have so often made before,
namely; the innocent purchaser will be
protected. The League is bound to
lose no matter which way the case
goes.

Never in the history of America,
nor the history of any other country,
has corporation grown to such d.
mensions in so short time as the
American Bell Telephone Co. Never
before has an inventor Immediately
grown so enormously rich from the
proceeds of an invention as Professor
Alexander Graham Bell. On the LIST
of January. 1885, the Bell Company
controlled in the United States and
Territories 772 exchanges, 107,440
circuits, 10l,734 miles of wire, gave
service to 5,l68 employees and had
l64, 900 subscribers. Its pay roll last
year averaged 100000 month, or
about 100000 year. A company
that has combined salary and tax
expense of about $150,000 a year,
with an income of 100000 u year,
is fine illustration of the modern
scheme of money making.
