GOVERNORS OFFICE.
The governor yesterday sent to the Sec
rotary of state his veto Of the Greer county
land bill. The document recites the fact
that the territory has been claimed by the
United States, and that such claim has al
ways been stIenuously denied by this state.
He quotes from the message of Governor
Roberts of 1888, in which he says: Gun
til the differences are settled and the
boundary clearly adjusted and established,
neither party can, with justice or pro-
priety, exercise the right to ALLEVIATE or
dispose by sale of the lands in oontro-
versy." The governor further says:
II am clearly of the opinion that an
Appropriation of tho lands by Texas in
the mode required in this bill would cause
on the part of the present administration
prompt and aggressive assertion of the
claims of the United States government,
and rs a harsh and summary election
would mean total loss of.property of a
worthy class of citizens who have estab-
lished homesteads and families in the dis
puttd territory and are ready ard willing
to abide by the decision as to territorial
rights, contest of this character ought
to be avoided until what deem the just
claim of Texas to this territory can bt
friendly established"

During General Grubb's visit to

mainly devoted to inspecting the

works were among the first to dis
tribute circulars among their EN-
ployees during the last Presidential
campaign announcing that the cleo

were the first to reduce the scale of
wages and lock out some of the men
from their employ.
