Miss Ella Ewing, Missouri giantess,
is now visiting in Keokuk, Ia, accom-
panied by her parents. She was born
in Lewis county, Mo-, on March g..
1872. Until she was years of age she
was an ordinary child, but since then
she has developed rapidly, until now,in
her eighteenth year, she is z feet
81 inches tall and weighs 232 pounds
Her father is 6 feet inch, her mother
5 feet 8 inches. None of the relatives
on either side have been noted tor ex-
traordinary size. She is well formed
snd rateer pretty, but quit bashful and
strongly averse to bring exhibited as a
freak. 1t takes twenty yards, double
width, to make her dress.-Special

Didn't Stay.

Reed, the man who last week shot
Morrison, and was himself shot in the
leg, found it convenient, after being
arrested and remaining two nights, to
take advantage Of the darkness of the
third, and skipped. While he remained
be complained greatly of the pain be
was in, leading the officers to believe
be was in n condition to escape, and
it is more than probable that he did
not walk, as Mrs. Stillwell was out a
fine saddle horse-taken from the stable
the night he left. Little, if any
effort, has been made to capture the
man, and thereby hangs tale.
The officers of this county have had
very little encouragement in an effort
to do their duty. 1t has often happened
that when, after much trouble and ex-
pense, criminals have been brought be-
fore the bar of Justice, an Owyhee jury
the name has become stencil in the
nostrils of all right thinking people
has said "not guilty." or if found guilty
the penalty has been nominal. Since
the departure of Reed, have heard not
less than thirty persons make remarks
like the following: tits good rid
dance;' twill save the county lots of
money!" "for Gods sake don't try to
bring him back" and similar express
ions. Now want to tell you people
who talk that way. that you don't
know what you are doing. Do you
want to advertise this place as safe re-
treat, rendezvous, for outlaws and
desperadoes? think not, but that is
just what you are doing when you talk
and act the way you do. 1t is all wrong,
in every sense of the word. If there
were half-dozen smallpox patients in
DeLamar, it would be just as reasonable
to ship them to Nampa or Caldwell to
poison the people there, as it is to let
our criminals depart quietly simple be-
cause they are willing to go. presume
there is not convict in the peniten-
tiarv but would be willing to leave that
institution were the opportunity afford
ed, and it would be just as consistent to
say turn them loose because they are an
expense to the state. In the case in
question, nine shots were fired, in
crowded saloon, and it was only won
der that some innocent person was not
killed. A crime was surely perpetrated,
for both parties to the shooting could |
not have been justified. tell you the
proper way to suppress crime and save
is to punish the offenders, and |
the soonor you wake up and realize
that fact the better it will be for the en-

| like mnch OF that in tbeis wild section,
| but they knew that this tract was
scanned will, metals and covered with
valuable timber A settler, If he could
hang on 10 his claim aud beat tho com
phny, would have piece OF land worth
IS. 900 or $1,000. These tcttlers got
! together and hired lawyers. Thus the
faint has been see saving, with the
settlers on ore sile and the Land aud
Iron Go. on the other.
At tho outset OF the Il ght tho Land
aud Iron Go. had mnch tho hest of it..
IL lad tho decisions and precedcats OF
the government land oillc. on its side.
The ease of Horace y. Rogers, decided
the right OF the Land and Iron Co. It
held that an net OF cohgress could not
forfeit The title to lands when that title
la passed away from the original
parties and was held by bona fide
occupants. In other words, the gov
eminent act of forfeiture was not aiore
sufficient, but had to be followed up by
suit in tho courts for eiectment. I'M
der this precedent the Michigan Land
and Iron Co. appeared to be all right,
as the forfeiture act WAS not sufficient
to dispossess them.
But Secretary Noble has been mp
setting good many OF the old decis
ions, and among those upset is the
Rogers case. In deciding the Louisiana
case he overrnled the Rogers decision
as bad law. He then laid down the
principle broad ~ that congress had u
right to forfeit lands no matter how
much the title had wandered from the
original owner. He said that the act
Of forfeiture was sufficient in itself to
forfeit the laads, an that it was wholly
unnecessary 10 go into the courts and
on people who had acquired title.
This decision from Secretary Noble,
the final authority on land questions,
appears to dispose Of the valuable lands
near L'Anse. IL refers only to the
Louisiana land, but tue principle laid
down is one which makes success APP
pear certain to the Michigan settlers
and defeats the Michigan Land aud
Iron Co. About tho only thing remain
ing is to have Secretary Noble apply
the principle of the Louisiana case to
the Michigan case. This he would
have done at once if it had not been
for the obstacles which the lawyers
were ready to iuterpo,e.
Messrs. Copp and Luckett, who act
as attorneys for number of the set
tiers, have within few days written to
the land Office requesting that the
Michigan case be disposed of now that
the Louisiana test case has been
decided. On the other hand, the
attorneys for the Michigan Land and
Iron Co. have made personal appIica-
tion to the land Office that n decision
bo DELAYED, alleging that they will be
able to show many differences between
the Louisiana case and the Michigan
case. Thus the controversy stands,
with every prospect that Secretary
Noble will soon apply the principle in
the Louisiana casa TO the Michigan.
and thus finally confirm the titles of
the many anxious settlers who have
located on the LAnSe lands.
