Gum Chewing in Congress.
From the Chicago Tribune.


Gum chewing is becoming almost as
common among congressman as it is
among high-school girls. Scores of mem
bers have acquired the habit since it
was introduced by a. new congressman
from the West. He started the custom
by inviting his colleagues out to take
some chewing gum. This was a novel
proceeding 70 the oldtimers, who were
accustomed to get something more ex-
hilarating than chewing gum when a
fellowmember offered to stand treat,
and they fell into it because of the
novelty. They spread it among their
friends, and the man who keeps little
stand near the main entrance to the
House floor is doing thriving business.
1t is no uncommon thing to see a mem
Der take four of his colleagues to this
stand, buy five sticks of gum for cents,
and distribute them around. Then the
entire party stand around chewing with
as much enthusiasm as the school cir s..
Some of the congressman are getting to
be as particular in their choice of chew
ing gum as In the choice Of their cigars.

an IMPORTANT DECISION.

A dispatch from Washington, under
date of March IL, gives recent decision
which involves the question of resi-
dence before making final proof and
applies with equal force to both home
stead and presumption claims. The
ruling is given in full and is as follows:
To the Commissioner of the General
Land Office--Sir:-I have considered
the appeal of William A. Thompson
from your office decision of July 0, 1856,
rejecting his final proof for land therein
mentioned. think this man is entitled
to his patent. He made his declaratory
statement April 26, 1888, alleging settle
ment week before, and showed that
he made it. 1t appears that he was
absent during most of the following
summer that he was on the land from
fall until spring; absent again during
the succeeding summer; again upon the
upon the land from fall until spring. and
not absent six months at any one time;
that he applied the proceeds of his labor
during two seasons. when he was absent
to the building of his house and making
improvements on his land, now valued
altogether at 5000; that he was a poor
man and his absence was for the pur-
pose of earning means to improve his
land, and that he devoted all of his
earnings with fidelity to that purpose.
In the spring of the third year he left
again, and remained until the following
January, his purpose being to earn
money to pay for his land. The amount
necessary was 5000, a considerable sum
Tor laborer to save from his wages in
year, in addition to the necessary fees
and expenses. He appears to have
done it, and Notwithstanding he was not
personally present on his land during
the last six months preceding the COM
pletion of his entry, the fact cannot
deny his right.
He made a settlement in person on
his land lie has erected a dwelling
thereon he has improved the land, and
he has inhabited 1t in good faith.
When it is considered that this tract
was situated many miles from the ordi-
nary highway, remote from settlements
generally; that it is very difficult of
access, and yet, that he has persistently
chung to it for three years. applying all
the results of his labors to its improve
ment and its purchase, it is difficult to
discern case more worthy. His in
habitancy of the land is not impeached
after his residence WAS once secured, by
his going abroad to procure means to
bring back, improve it and obtain title
to it.
l must reverse your decision and
direct a patent to issue to the claimant.
