GOVERNMENT LANDS.
Seven Hundred and Fifty Thousand
Acres Thrown Open to Settlers.


SAN Francisco, July 2S.-Seven hun
dred and fifty thousand acres in San
Bonito and Monterey Counties, and
which, according to the act of Congress
of September 80, 1890, reverts to the
Government by reason of the failure of
the Southern Pacific Railway to COM
plete a portion of its line, was thrown
open to settlement under the homestead
act, and large number of filings were
made at the land office in this CITY,
Some excitement attended the opening
of the land; the settlers in farm wagons
have been passing through town con-
tinually during the night, going and
coming from the county lines. Anum-
Der of San Francisco land hunters also
rushed in to the country during the past
week, having gone to SaE Francisco to
make entries at the land office. This
town is crowded with land seekers who
have notyet taken selec ctions, but many
of whom are waiting for the stage to
depart in the morning for Panoche and
Valeois, where the squatters think are
the choicest 'ands for settlement. The
old timers are affected very little by
opening of the land, but the newcom-
ers are nervous and excited. There has
been no violence outside of few fights.
Women and men are here to take up
claims and will probably secure lands.

The Face on the Dollar.

Anna Willis Williams, the original

liams, of Philadelphia, and removed
with him to his native city. Mr.. Will
liams soon became affluent, but through
some mismanagement he lost all his
property, and his daughter, Anna, the
youngest of nine children, was born un-
der most adverse circumstances. While
she was still but child her father died,
leaving his widow, although in delicate
health, with the strongest determin alton
to care for and educate her children,
and it was entirely through the en-
deavors of her mother that Miss Will
liams received her education.
Early in 1876 the Treasury Depart
ment secured the services of Mr.. George
Morgan, and expert designer and en-
graver, who had previously been con-
nected with the Royal Mint of England.
He was assigned to duty at the Phila-
delphia Mint upon the design for the
new silver dollar which was soon to be
issued. He gave his attention first to
the reverse side, for which design of
the American eagle was afterward se-
lected, hoping that suitable idea would
occur to him for the head of the God

should be used as the principal figure

WHY WE LAUGH.
Governor Buchanan Not in It.-Will he
Run Independent,

NASHVILLE, Tenn, July 30.-Govern-
or John P. Buchanan today withdrew
his name for nomination before the
Democratic Convention. In the course
of a card issued he says: "a radical
faction, the majority of the leaders of
which has been conspicuous in the past
in Tennessee politics as Sky Blue Boil
sters,' inaugurated a plan for disrup-
tion. They commenced vindictive
warfare upon all who did not yield
obedience to their decree. When these
forces had been marshaled in battle
array an edict of prescription was is
sued as autocratie as ever came from
the Car of Russia. They propose to
challenge the vote of every Democrat
who belonged to the organization of
farmers and laborers, and prescribe
him from the party"
1t is stated on good authority that
Governor Buchanan will in few days
announce himself an independent can
didate for Governor, in which event he
will receive the support of the Farmers
Alliance, which is very strong in this
State.
The Republicans are jubilant over
the expected split in the Democratic
ranks, and predict that their party will
meet with success in the State, as they
did in 1880.

The father found work for his son.
This angered the youngster, and after
some words he drew knife and began
slashing his father about the face and
head. Seeing that his son was deter
mined to murder him, the old man
drew a knife and the bloody duel con-
tlnued until the combatants could be
separated. Young McManus received
three stabs in the sides that penetrated
the cavity and also another horrible
wound in the abdomen and about a
dozen other cuts or stabs. His recovery
is impossible. The father was cut
number of times in the face and on the
head, arms and body, and would no
doubt have been killed if his son s
knife had been sharp. The elder Nc
Manuas was arrested. He says the af-
fray would not have occurred if his
son had not been drinking.

The Pacific SIOpe.

Judge M. NJ. Estee, of California, who
was Chairman of the Republican Ma
tional Convention of 1888, said recently
II regard the administration of Presi-
dent Harrison as having been wise,
prudent and judicious. He can carry
California by sound majority. The
prosperity of California in the last year
has been marvellous. We produced
wheat, raisins, prunes and wine in un-
precedented quantities. The Mckinley
tariff law is popular with us, because
it protects our products. The duty on
prunes is an example. 1t is two cents,
yet prunes are cheaper in New York
and over the country today than when
the law went into effect. The same
thing is true as to raisins, ON which the
duty imposed is two and one half
cents"
