CALLS 1T A FARCE,
A View OF the Organization of
ItaSca County.

Special Correspondence 10 the Globe.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mimi, Jan. TN view of
the raging county seat affair in ltasca county,
your correspondent has taken the oppor-
tunity to look the matter up and give re-
port of the developments of that section OF
country, and TO see what advantage organiza-
ton would afford the people who reside
here. There is a fight on now among the
people of this county, as there are two places
seeking recognition at the hands of the legis-
lature who each for themselves want the
county seat viz, Grand Rapids and La
Prairie. While the people of La Prairie
earnestly expect the county seat Grand
Rapids, on the other hand, most conf
IDENTITY expects the same thing from
the legislative solons. To your CORE
pondent he could not see wherein organiza-
ton would help or benefit the people In gen.
eral in any manner, and great many of the
citizens of this place are strongly opposed
to the manner i'll which few who desire to
further their personal ends have taken the
initial step for organization. The more con-
servative refer one to the counties that have
already been organized and have lost their
organization for various reasons Cass
county was at one time organized, and IL re
verted back to its maidenhood after an organ
lzatlon OF few years because it was run by
officials who had no real interest in the taxa
ton, as they paid no taxes, and it became
such robbers roost that the taxpayers
n-reSldenIs--presenJed their case to the
legislature and had the organization killed.
1t seems in this case that the same thing is
brewing, as your correspondent has learned
are @ to ' be made il 0Ge the legfslalture RdoleDsS
grants organization. One thing is the build
ing Of a new railroad from a southerly direc-
ton from Minneapolis, and that AitKIn
county is to aid in securing this railroad.
Itasea people will provide the necessary
bonds and TAX the county for it. and Aitkin
county will furnish an old roadbed which
was built a few years ago from Aitkin to
Mile Laes lake, by the Aitkin & Mile Lacs
Railroad company. and that not only to aid
the road to be constructed, but to assist the
same after it has been constructed. 1t is evil
dent that an organization is expected, as at
either townsite place has been selected for
the erection of court house to cost at least
$50, 900. There is very strong undercur-
rent among certain property owners who
live in this county that organization would
be detriment to the best interests of the
county, as our sister county would have been
in better shape had she remained unorgan-
lied for longer period. This feeling is that
only few carpet baggers want Office. and
are bound to imperil the taxpayer for their
benefit, and that organization would be a
farce. We. x.

bond deposits. When the bill comes over to
the house the general impression is that 1t
will be at once referred to the house commit
tee on coinage. But on the question (which
is the appropriate committee there is some
room for speculation. The bill, if it should
include the banking features, would
contain legislation appertaining to
two different SUBJECTS over which two sep,
arate committees, VIZ: Coinage, banking and
currency, have jurisdiction. The probabil-
tiles, Of course, favor reference of the meas
ure to the former committee, though abun-
dant precedent could be found in previous
congresses to Justify any reference that
might be decided on. The attitude which
the speaker viii assume towards the bill
here becomes or importance, and there is
good reason to believe that Mr.. Reed has not
himself determined upon his course. Last
year he was successful in holding the situa-
lion well i'll hand, but the reasons for adopt
ing strong measures are not so potent now as
then, and moreover. there is reason to be-
lieye it would be even more difficult now
than last year to restrain members. These
considerations will have weight. The
speaker has it in his power to be a great
stumbling block in the way of action, and
for this reason his attitude is a subject of in
tense interest

TURNER'S STORY.
He Relates Plausible Tale About
That Letter.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Representative Tur
ner, OF Kansas, has given an explanation of
the much talked-of letter alleged to have
been written by him to Frank McGrath,
president of the Kansas Farmers Alliance,
concerning the Kansas senatorship.
1.-THE letter was Written," he said, "by q
young man about twenty-six years of age
who came to Washington from my district
about two months ago. He was lawyer and
wanted an Office. In order to help him along
| let him write such of my letters as could be
answered without dictation, for he was not
stenographer, and gave him enough to pay
his board bill. He hung around me here and
at my room, and of course had every oppor-
tunity to use my stationary. Finally, when
il became apparent that ne could not get an
appointment here he became angry toward
me and in revenge wrote this letter"
Where is he nowF'
Gle left here night before last. do not
care to make known his name, because be-
lieve that he has gone to Kansas, in which
he event will be able to have him arrested
and punished. If he knows that l am after
him he VIII go straight to the state of Wash
ington. lam making every effort to catch
him, and if necessary. will go to Kansas to
prosecute him His familiarity with my affairs
made it easy for him to incorporate such
matters as would give the letter the appear
ance of being genuine. For instance, it was
true that wrote letter to McGrath which
was wrongly directed, and this clerk of mine
knew this, because spoke of the mistake in
his presence, and asked him if he mailed the
letter.
A telegram received from Topeka yester-
day said that the envelope in which the letter
was inclosed had request on 1t to return if
not delivered to box 81, house of representa-
tives. This is Mr.. Turner's box, and it was
SAID that if the letter was forgery the
forger would not inclose it in an envelope
which might come back. to Mr.. Turner. The
latter said that all his envelopes had this re-
quest printed on them and that the clerk had
used the envelopes as a matter of course,
without thought of the consequences, and
probably with the idea of adding to the ap-
pearance of the genuineness of the letter.
The original document has not yet been
found, but is being searched for, and wnen
it is produced will throw a good deal Of
light on the situation. 1t is said that the
Alliance people have it and are comparing it
with Mr.. Turner's handwriting. Mr.. Turner
says that he has nothing to fear from com

MILE LAC LANDS.
Secretary Noble Renders a De-
cision Regarding This Reserva-

: WAsHINGToN, Jan. 9.-Secretary Noble to-
day rendered a decision in the case of
Amanda j. Walters and others, and G. w. M.
Reed and others, involving the right of set
tiers to perfect their titles to lands formerly
occupied by the Mile Lac Indians in Mime
sofa. These entries were made under rul-
ing of Secretary Zach Chandler that the In
dians had ceded their right to the lands in
question. Subsequently congress suspended
all action OH such entries until further
legislation, on the ground that the In
dams were permitted by treaty to oc-
cupy lhe lands during good behavior
In 1889 congress made provision for
cession of the Chippewa reservation by ne
gotiation reserving to the Indians the right
to take their allotments on their reservation,
and providing that nothing in the act should
affect the right of prior settlers to prove up
their claims. The Indians signed this agree
ment, and have since consented to remove to
the White Earth reservation. The secretary
holds that the Indians were not entitled to
take alotments on the lands occupied by
them for the reason that they had ceded all
their rights TO the same in 1868. and that the
lands were not i'll reservation. He further
holds that the act of 1889 was the further
legislation contemplated by congress when
the entries were suspended. He therefore
directs that the eases of the settlers be taken
up, and disposed of on their merits. This
decision involves the rights of very large
humber of settlers
