The Globes Idea Of a Model

The military spirit in st. Paul is far
from being either dormant or on the
wane. The fact that there is not nearly
room enough in the present armory for
a battalion drill with an average turn
out, not to mention space to supply the
needs of full attendance, has been
sufficient to renew the project of secur-
ing much larger quarters. Now that
there is boom in the chivalrous and
military spirit. the project has become
necessity. With the addition of Com

The Semi-weekly Sqnirming and wrig-

an earthquake that shook even the war

in a presidential course res0rted to only

WAsHtNGToN, March q. In the case
of Frank Burns, and others who made
application to locate Valentine scrip
upon the tide lands, near Seattle, WASH,
the secretary of the interior has decided
that such land is not within tho intcut
Of the act of congress authorizing the
issue Of Valentine scrip Tor public lands
of the United States.
lie holds further, that since the loca-
tion was upon unsurvcyed lands, II was
merely preference right to perfect
such location after the surveys as
against the claims OF all Others eN-
cept the United states, but that until
such location were adjusted to the pub
lie surveys, the United States had the
authority to dispose OF tho lands covered
thereby. Such disposition, he holds,
was made OF the tract In controversy by
the admission of Washington into tho
union as q state. Hence, even were It
TO be conceded that tho lands were at the
date of their location subject to disposal
by the general government, the rights
OF the state had tho precedence Of those
of the scrip applicants.
1t Is stated that the lands in question
arc located on the water mont of Seattle,
which, together with Improvements, are
valued at several million dollars.
