Interview With Perry S. Heath

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-Perry S.
Heath, who was confidential secretary
to Gen. Harrison during the recent
campaign, knows considerable about
Dakota men and measures. He formerly
resided in Aberdeen. Concerning the
allegation that Gov. Mellette was not
friendly to Gen. Harrison prior to the
nomination, Mr.. Heath to-day made a
strong and indignant denial. He said:
Sc l have heard these statements from
time to time, but have paid no attention
to them, mainly for the reason that l
know Gov. Mellette to be fully compe-
tent to take care of himself"
"Do you know where the statements
originated"
81 do not, nor have / any means of
cOnjecturing their authorship. OF
course the distinguished abilities of my
friend have made him prominent in the
Republican party of Dakota. as they
would in any locality. Political prOmi-
hence always carries with it the corol-
larry of envy, as well as of jealousy and
occasional personal animosity. The as
sertiOns that Gov. Mellette was dislOyal
to Gen. Harrison probably emanates
from some person who is, or imagines
himself to be, political rival of Gov.
Mellette; but, until the source of the
statements can be ascertained, it is use
less to notice them"
.'Have you any personal knowledge
upon the subject, which you would be
willing to communicate for publica-
tion?''
''There is no doubt whatever in my
mind. and in the minds of those who
have kept run of Gov. Mellette's per-
sonal and political movements, that he
was an
ORIGINAL HARRISON MAN.
During all of the period that Gen. Har-
rison was chairman of the senate COM
mittee on territories, Gov. Mellette
when in Washington-and he was here
very frequently-made the committee
room his headquarters and he was con-
stantfy inrommunication with-the SEN
ator. GOV. Mellette has known Gen.
Harrison probably fifteen or twenty
years, and / have heard him speak of
the president-elect in the most friendly

Wakely decided the case of Franklin
Robinson, of California, VS. A D Jones,
of Omaha, in favor of the plaintiff,
and he will eventually gain possession
of Omaha real estate valued at $500,
coo. Robinson was soldier in the
Mexican war and entitled to q govern
ment warrant for 100 acres Of land.
He authorized Jones in 1849 to get the
warrant and locate land for his bene-
fit. He then went to the Pacific coast
and Jones got the warrant, located the
land, and held possession Of it by viz
tue of q pretended assignment ON pa
pers from Robinson. In 1858 Jones
sold the land to Sydney Dillon for the
Union Pacific depot grounds on the
Iowa side of the river for S24 900, and
invested the proceeds in Omaha prop
ertY in his own name. Robinson re-
manned in ignorance of all this until

warrants against John and William
Sparks, charging them with tearing
down and hauling away his residence
while his family occupied it. Some
months ago Vest bought the property
from the mother of the Sparks boys,
for which he alleges he obtained good

to the conveyance, and claimed that
their mother had no right to dispose of
the house. On Thursday the Sparks
boys, who live across the river, crossed
over to the Kentucky side in ferry
boat, and without any previous notice
to the owner of the property, proceeded
to tear down the stable and remove it
to the boat. When they appeared for

for assistance. When Vest returned
he discovered that the plunderers had
torn off the doors and shutters, and
even the ceiling from over his family's
heads, and had recrOSsed to Jefferson

Sheriff Allen escaped unhurt.

night he located the men and ferry.
Early this morning he drove to point

preached the shore cautiously, but
were met by Hellman, who beckoned
them TO come on. Not satisfied but
that the rivermen would give trouble,
Deputy Garrett drew a revolver and
advanced toward the man, who ap-
