The New Country Swar1ning with Inhab-

ARKANSAS CITY, April %, 1882
The long waiting-by no means pa
tient-of the Oklahoma boomer is over,
and tonight he is spread numerously
all over the Territory, which until noon
to-day was forbidden ground. His
troubles are not over, bya great deal.
He is likely to have lively and in sone
cases, perhaps, deadly experiences with
shotgun and revolver, and in due
course of time more or less business
with lawyers and the courts, but on
the whole he is happier to the extent
that any creature is who, having been
held within unwelcome bounds, finds
himself at last released.
It has been evident since the Ger
tainty was established that Oklahoma
world be opened to settlement that
many intending settlers were doomed
to disappointment. The area Of the
Territory is very far from commensu-
rate with the demand the on-rushing
armies of pioneers make>upon it, and
the days, weeks and months to follow
viii prove how far supply is below de-
mand and how necessary further con-
cessions may be to avert disorder
bloodshed and other conditions but
/. little short of anarchy.
A AMEMoRABLEDAY.
The history of this day will for
ever be memorable in frontier annals,
and will leave behind heritage of lit
igation which will be fruitful to land
sharks and claim attorneys, but be de-
structive to the claims of poor and hon
est settlers. The Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe Railroad began running its
sectional trains out of Kansas City last
night and picking up cars at almost
every station along the route. Hun
dreds of people were waiting at every
depot, and if the cars, all of which
were filled before the border line was
reached, could have made train miles
in length
The crowds were composed Of specu-
lators, adventures, sightseers, thieves,
gamblers and sprinkling of the demi-
monde. The farming element was not
largely represented, as all of the home
steaders have gone on before. There
Were men in the cars from every great
city and important point in the coun-

That Interview With Cleyeland.
1CharlestOn World.]

Some time ago there appeared in an
obscure little North Carolina weekly,
what purposed to be an interview with
eX-PreSident Cleveland. In the inter-
view Mr. Cleveland was made to say
that he would positively not accept the
Democratic Presidential nomination in
1892; that his public life was at an end,
and that he regarded the New York
World as Republican paper.
To member of the editorial staff of
the Charleston World, who forwarded
The clipping from the North Carolina
weekly to the ex-President, Mr.. Cleve-
land has written as follows in regard to
this particular matter:
I think it is very Improbable to at
tempt to run down the errors and mis-
representations Of newspaper inter-
view.
Ireturn the clipping you send me
purporting to contain part of an inter-
view with me during my recent trip to
Florida. You ask me to say whether
or not it is correct.
I shall content myself in this case
with hereby saying that the report of
the interview contained in the clipping,
is very inaccurate and misleading.
Yours truly,
GROVER CLEVELAND.
In the light of the recent prominence
which has been given to Mr.. Cleveland
in New York, and the continuous link
ing of his name with the presidential
nomination in 1892, we regard as strik-
ingly significant this denial on bis part
of the truth of an interview in which
occurs the positive statement that he
would not accept nomination to the
Presidency four years hence

:zDELrRIUM OF EXCITEMENT.
The excitement may be judged from
the fact that large number of coach
windows were broken out by people
who were anxious to secure seats. 4
strong guard of railroad men was de-
tailed to protect the company's prop
erty, and they had contract of unusual
dimensions on their hands: The crowd
was panic stricken. After waiting so
many eventful days and nights for the
hour of action to come men Were seized
with q sudden fear that they would be
left in the lurch, and that fear served to
make them like drove Of stampeded
cattle.
There was a vain attempt at good
humor in the struggle which concealed
the grim purpose behind, and there was
no quartershown-in the-rush for place.

WORK OF THE TROOPS.

The troops have simply done the
best possible. The Land Office men
are being watched like hawks and no
one fears any attempt to secure by
favoritism any advantage over another.
Surveyors are at work with their in
struments. Lines are being run and
in an hour the town will be settled, sur
veyed and every one of the thousands
of lots taken.

CARRIED TOO FAR.

There are many disappointed men
in the multitude. Unable to control
their horses in the wild charge they
were swept past the claims they had in
view for weeks, and all their plans are
overturned. Broken bones and heads
abound. Looking in every direction
over the hills and plains, the boomers
are thicker than the locusts were in
Egypt. Thousands still rush along.
The race from the line-one mile and
a half-has been made in four minutes,
and behind, fast closing up the rear,
comes the trailing mass.
The settlers further up along the line
are indignant because they have been
held back. They feel that those who
have come from the West have stolen
a march upon them. There was &c
other way in which it could be done.

BLAINE ABOUT BROKEN DOWN.
The Secretary of State No More the Wig
orous Man of a Year Ago.

The Secretary of State No More the Wig.
Orous Man of Year Ago.
WASHINGTON, May 1l.-Mr. Blaine, if
not absolutely broken down, is very badly
shaken. He is not at all the man he was
three months ago when he walked into the
State Department. He walked like an
Apollo then. His face was remarkably,
almost unnaturally, white, and his hair was
very white, too, but his eye was steady and
full of fire, his body erect, his head high
and naughty, and his step firm. Now ali
is changed-all save the pallor of his cheek,
which has grown deeper, and the whiteness
of his hair.
To one who saw him in his pride as he
marched like a conquering hero into the
room OF the Secretary of State on March 6,
and who sees him now painfully making
his way across the lobby in the State De-
partment, or reclining in his carriage as he
is being driven from his Office to his hotel,
500 or 600 yards distant the contrast is
striking and melancholy.
After dinner last evening he and Mrs.
Blaine got into their carriage and drove
down to Lafayette square to view the i'm
provements now being put on the house
they are to occupy. When the carriage
came to a standstill before the building Mrs.
Blaine had to rise, open the door and get
out first. Then the Secretary slowly and
painfully hoisted himself up, and it took
apparently all the help his arms could give
him to enable his legs to get him on his
feet. Yesterday he was too i'll to accompany
the President down the Potomac.

SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH

,eprc1AL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.l
WASHINGTON, May 12.-It is said in ad-
miuistration circles that large batch OF
consuls will almost certainly be appointed
this week, and that supplemented, probably,
bv a considerable number of Presidential
postmasters, among which it is just possible
the name OF some gentleman for Pittsburg
will appear.
Persons who know something of the i'm
preston on Secretary Blaine made by Mr..
James Y. Long, and his remarkable array
of solid Endorsements. say that among the
Allegheny county appointments to positions
in the Consular service will almost certainly
be that of Mr.. Long. Mr.. Long is said at
the State Department to be particularly
pressed BY Senator Cameron and Mr. c. L.
Magee. The relations of Mr.. Blaine and
Mr.. Cameron have been particularly friend
ly, for some reason, since the Secretary S
return to public life, and everybody knows
of the warmth and sincerity of Mr.. Blaine S
friendship for Mr.. Magee. 1t is said at the
State Department that previous to his de-
parture for Europe the Senator made spe-
eial and personal plea for the appointment
of Mr.. Long, and that Mr.. Magee's support
has been even more earnest, IL is Ior tnese
reasons that persons near Mr.. Blaine believe
the Secretary will not pass by Mr.. Longs
application for the Florence Consulate.
The resignation of Judge jerks, the
Solicitor General, was accepted, to take
effect on the 18th, next Wednesday. 1t is
therefore expected that a new incumbent
for this Important Office, which has been
filed with acknowledged ability by Judge
jerks, will be appointed this week, but it
has not leaked out who the President has in
his mind. 1t appears for some reason to be
a general opinion, however, that Pennsyl-
vania will not again secure the honor, and
there is an impression that Attorney General
Miller has a personal friend whom he would
like to see in that position. 1t is stated
upon authority that. Judge jerks will be
retained as counsel for the case of the Gov
ernment against the Bell Telephone mono
rolu

ages Of disease and pain, aad whose muscles
seemed secure from the ills which weaker
wac terrible sufferer and was in most pitia-
BILE condition imaginable, when she applied to
DR.. Smith. The case in question was that OF
Mrs L. H. Auberry, who resides at Mercer, Pa.
Mrs. A. had been afflicted with hemorrhOids
for number of years without paying very
much attention to them But as the years
Pile-tumors began to make their appearance at
each movement Of the bowels. These tumors
began to increase IN size, and when prolapsed
would bleed profusely. The pain and
suffering which she experienced from
them, together with the loss of blood,
from repeated hemorrhages gradually under
mined her nervous system until she became
physical wreck. She became weak and languid.
The least physical exertion caused great
fatigue. She lived in constant fear that some
thing dreadful was about to happen. She suf-
fered from melancholy, and felt that she would
never get wei. feeling would come
over her that she was alone in the world, and
Life. She had tried the sIill Of so many physi-
clans without finding relief that she
had given up al hopes of ever being
restored to health. In connection with hemorr-
holds she suffered from female weakness
in its worst form. and had become so
thoroughly discouraged that she had given up
in despair. Hearing of the remarkable cures
that are being made by Or. Smith. the mag

cided to cOnsuk him, and make one more

dition or how long you have been sick there is
hope left. No matter what other physicians

several eminent physicians before coming to

LET Us GROW FLAX.
Communication From Ireland to the Agri-
cultural Department "A Source of
Wealth for American Farmers
The Value of the Crop.

WASHINGTON, May 12.-Last week Prof.
Willetts, the Assistant Secretary of Agri-
culture, had under consideration q letter
from Ireland, which he thinks may offer
solution of the economic problem: What
shall take the place of wheat on farms
where it can no longer be raised at profit
The writer, who has been familiar with fax
growing and linen manufacturing since
1910, says In his interesting communication:
There are only two establishments weaving
one at Webster, Mass, and the other at Apple
ton Wis.-the latter doing but little weaving
and neither weaving anything finer than crash.
There is nothing in the climate or soil conflict
ing with the assertion that just as good fax
and linen may be produced in every State IN
the American Union as in any country. Ger
many now spins and weaves the finest linen,
and she has no essentially differing climate
from America.
Many things become successful in America
from the facility with which the people take up
and adopt improved processes and appliances,
and this may be the salvation of the linen in
NSestTy, Of the importance of which there is no
question. There Is every reason whv the
American farmers should produce 100000
acres of fax for both seed and fiber over and
above what le now produced, which would give
100000 TO l5,OO0, ,OO0 bushels of seed, worth as
many millions of dollars, and 2, ,50O, 600 tons of
FAX straw worth S500 900 and from which
$4,000 tons of fax fiber would be obtained,
worth SlO0 100000 Once established, Amencan
invention would, as in all other industries, soon
build up an industry to consume this raw
material
wish the State experimental farms to grow
as small amount in each State and such private
farmers as are disposed TO do the same. The
fax should be sown upon any good mellow soil
which has been well manured the past year, or
active chemical fertilizers may be employed on
areas to a reasonable extent. The seed should
be sown az the rate of ~ bushels on an acre of
land, brushed in, and no further attention is
needed excepting that any large weeds may be
removed until the fax has 'turnedn for half
its length, when it should be pulled. cured and
cared for TO keep it bright in the same manner
as is done with hay.
The seed may be taken of by ripping or by
roller threshing, and there will be market for
all fax straw thus grown at SO per ton. The
crop should give 81 tons of straw to an acre
and II TO 10 bushels Of seed. The cost of pull
ing is in Canada IS an acre.
Prof Willetts has informed the sender
that the subject of his letter would be
earnestly considered by the department,
which would lend its aid to any effort to in
crease or diversity the agricultural indus
tries of this country.
