The short receipts of cattle today did
not allow much trading; but the market
on any thing at all fair is far ahead o: this
time last week. Butchers stuff finds a
heavy demand and all of that grade sells
at once at good prices. The butchers
must have stock, but the lower grades are
very slow sellers.

VIII the Sun Turn IMP

Thousands OF curious and ingenious
theories have been brought forth to ac-
count for the fact that the sun. although
he has whirlcd his burning disc across
the heavens for untold ages continues
to burn without being consumed or his
bulk being lcsscncd in the least. Some
learned men affect to believe that the
great orb is Il monstrous ball of gas,
but even Il great ball of gas would be
consumed to its utmost atom in the
course of few thousand years. Others
pretend 10 believe that its fires are kept
mp by the remains of wrecked worlds
which are constantly falling into its
depths. but even this seems far from
probable. not TO say purely absurd
conclusion. In giving his opinion on
the last opinion, one of the most emil
ncnt astronomers of the day has figured
thata mountain range consisting of one
hundred and seventy-six cubic miles
falling into the sun would only be suf-
ficicnt To maintain the present heat for
single second; mass equal to that of
our earth would cngcndcr only enough
heat to last nincty-thrcc years. If these
conclusions are correct, and we have no
means of proving them false, well may
wo ask the question: Of what wonder
full, indcstructiblc substance is the sun
composed?

technical particular. The general land
Office Immediately marks the case for

pigeon hole for examination Some
cases arc thus kept pending for life

us there any remedy for this condi
ton of affairs?" inquired Senator Carey.
THAT is what am trying to ascer-
tan," responded tho genial and cner-
getic man from Montana. cit seems
to me that our rules can be amended in
some way so as to protect the settlers
from unfair contests and give them
their titles without needless DELAY. 1t
has been suggested that rule be made
requiring every contestant to make atfi-
davit concerning his charges, subject to
prosecution for perjury; to require him
to deposit with the local officers enough
to pay costs of contests, at least ten
dollars per day for attorneys fees, in
the event of his failure to prove fraud
upon the original cntryman: or other
failure of compliance with law. Such q
rule it is believed would prevent ali
spitcwork contests, Ind reduce the num-
Der of such eases to minimum. 1t
would work no hardship on the con-
testant, if he has good case; but it
would make him pay for his peculiar
pleasure if he were merely contcsting
for the purpose of annoying his neigh
bor."
Hon. Thomas III. Carter, the recently
appointed commissioner, is not l1nfamil-

and having lived for moro than score
of years west of the Mississippi river,
he is in full sympathy with the pioneers
who penetrate the undulating wilder

"All my synpathies arc with the set
tiers upon the public domain" said
Commissioner Carter, of the general
land office this afternoon.
Senator Stewart of Nevada, Senator
Carey, of Wyoming, and several officials
of the interior department. were pres
ent discussing the subject of contests;
that is, the distractions which are put
in the way of final action by tic land
office in granting patents to home
stcadcrs- Commissioner Carter said:
"Under the existing rules, John Smith
may live for five years upon u quarter
section of the public domain, and then
advertise the fact that he intends to
prove continuous possession and nc
quirc title by patent from tho govern
mcnt- None of the ncighbors have
anything to say against this final proof,
on the part of John Smith, because
they all know that he has earned his
title by compliance with homestead
laws Therefore, on a certain date, Mr..
Smith goes before tho register and the
receiver of the local land office, proves
up on his claim, and the papers arc sent
to the general land Office at Washing
ton, together with certificates of the
local officers to show that it is clear
case, and all fees have been paid But,
before the patent is issued, one of the
neighbors of John Smith has personal
quarrel with him about religion, n
horse trade, or politics, and that
ncighbor sits down and writes a
letter to the commissioner of tho
general land Office, protesting against
granting u patent to Smith for his
homestead and declaring that his entry
is Il fraud and without sufficient proof
of genuine residence. That stops the
issuance of the patent until the case
can be investigated. 1t is placed along
with thousands of other contested cases
and must await its turn. In the mean
time John Smith has no complete title
to his home, and he may die without
completing title, because it takes at
least two years to reach n case when it
is once sidetracllcd in thut way. But
suppose that Smith lives two wears and
in the meantime furnishes plenty of
proof to show his right to the land,
shows that the contest was prompted
by malice alone. Ultimately he would
get his patent for the land; hut lust
about the time the general land office is
ready to settle the matter and issue the
patent, along comcA another letter from
