The secretary OF the interior sustained
the decision Of the commissioner of the gen
eral land office in the contested case OF
Dan w. Overacker vs. Patrick McGovern,
canceling the letters OF entry to the north.
east quarter OF section 8, township 100,
range Z l west, Mitchell land district. On
April Ia, 1855, Acting Commissioner Har-
rison held the entry for cancellation, be-
cause McGovern had not carried out the
terms OF the entry in good faith, and the
secretary holds that the testimony sus-
tains this view OF the case. The commits
sioner is also sustained in OK parte Henry
J. King, who was not allowed to flo on
lands in sections 10 and Ia, township 1O4,
range l west. This land is part OF the
Crow Creek reservation, and King claimed
that being officially notified OF the execu-
tive order OF Feb. 27, 1885, throwing open
the reservation, the local land officers were
in duty bound to receive his filing. This
they refused to do, and Mr.. Sparks held
they were right. Acting Secretary Muldrow
now sustains Mr.. Sparks.

The disposition to be made OF Geronimo,
Natchez and the other leaders OF the capt
ured band OF Apaches is causing discussion
at the war department. 1t is believed that
Generals Sheridan. Miles and other army
officers who have had large experience in
dealing with hostile Indians, favor the exc
cution by hanging OF Geronimo and Match
ez, and the removal from Arizona to Flori-
da OF the remaining hostiles. This policy
is favored by the army, not SO much as q
punishment for the leaders named as Tor
the influence it would have upon those In
dians who are disposed to take the war
path every year. These Indians entertain
the belief that the government is afraid OF
them, and to place the captives upon a res.
ervation especially and supply their wants
would strengthen this belief. The hanging,
therefore, OF Geronimo and Natchez would
destroy this feeling among their followers
and other Indians disposed to make annu-
al outbreaks, and result in preventing
further depredations.

One Name for Girls.

Since women write our books, and
teach our schools, and practice our
laws, and ride in gigs, and send our
messages by telegraph, and "hello"
from one end of the country to the
other through the telephone, and
write after their names IN. D." and
"a. B., and "a. NJ and nearly all
the letters OF the alphabet. and even
"L L. D.'-thanks to the Smith Col
lege appreciation OF Miss Amelia B.
Edwards-writes Charles Dudley War
ner in the September Harpers', it is
necessary that woman should have a
name that will be inalienable and her
own through life. n y
In the first place, give the girl in
baptism only one name. She
will be perfectly content with it. Her
lover never requires, never uses but
one of her names, if she has
half q dozen. In the height OF his ten
derness he never says, "Amelia Jane,
come to my arms" He simply ex-
tends his arms and cries "Jane!'' In
the second place, when the girl mar
ries let her always keep her surname.
Then, whenever we see q woman's g
name, we shall know whether she is
married or single, and ifshe is married
we shall know what her family name
is. Ii she has earned reputation as
a writer or q doctor or an LII. d. as
Mary Brown, she will carry that with
her RS Mary Brown Johnson, and in
all cases there will be spared an infin-
lite amount OF talk and inquiry as to
who she was before she was married.
This system is essential to the cause"
OF woman. 1t may be said that it
lacks perfection in two respects; we
could not tell from the three names
whether the bearer OF them might not
be a widow, and it makes no provis-
ion for second marriage. These are
delicate questions. In regard to the
first, it is nobody's business to know
whether the woman is or is not a
widow, unless she chooses to make
that fact prominent, and then she has
ways enough to emphasize it. And:
in the second place lin case the wom-
an docs marry her deceased hus-
bands brother by permission OF Con-
gress), it does not at all matter what
becomes OF the name OF the first hus-
band. 1t is the woman's identity
that is to be preserved. And she can
not be required to set up mile stones
all along her life.

The Grant Monument FAILURE.

The great Grant monument, too,
must go on the list of things that are
not to be. A monument of some kind
will probably be built, but certainly
not the kind ofstructure that was pro-
posed q year ago. All hope of getting
the amount OF money required for
that-a round million-is given UP.
The committee has not openly ac-
knowledged that it can't be raised,
but many members, speaking for them
selves. do acknowledge it, and not on.
ly that, but say it was absurd at the
start to talk about raising such a sum.
1t certainly was. Some persons talk
about q million as il it were a mere
bagatelle. AS matter of plain, cold
fact, 1T is thousand times q thou
sand, ten thousand hundreds. If the
committee had reflected on this they
might not have been SO enthusiastic
ally previous in calling for q round
million. Had they asked for
quarter of it, they would have
shown some sense. The amount al
ready raised is about one-eighth. The
committees attempt to get $5OO,OOO
from Congress, was dismal failure,
as it deserved to be- 1t is now sub
stantially settled that the idea of put
ting up a million dollar monument
must be abandoned. New York won't
give the money and other parts of the
country should not be asked for a dol
lar OF it. A good enough monument
could be built with the 1926, 900 al
already subscribed. New Workers
don't take much stock in monuments
anyway, and one that cost 100000
or so would probably seem just as
good in their eyes as one costing ST.
600, 600. Anyhow, they won't see
one OF the latter kind, and it may be
Just as well. The memory OF Gen.
Grant can be honored all the same.
