WAsHINGToN,J July THE celebrated
"Guilford Miller case" which involves
the rights of so many settlers on rail-
road grants, has received an official rul-
ing. Upon the motion for review in the
case of Charles Cole VS.. The Northern
Pacific Company, which involves the
ruling of the department in the case of
The Northern Pacific Railroad Com
pany VS.. Guilford Miller, and in which
counsel for the railroad company asked
that the decision IN the Guilford Miller
case be reversed, Secretary Hoke
Smith has affirmed the decision
OF the department heretofore rem
dered in the last-named case.
so far as it held that the statutory with
draWal provided for by the sixth section
OF the act of July 2. 1864, to the North
ern Pacific Railroad company, upon the
filing of the map of general route, be-
came effective in Washington territory
when the map of July 80, 1870, was filed
and approved, and that said withdrawal
once exercised was thereby exhausted,
and could not be repealed. The secre-
tarY holds that this second filing, made
Feb. q, 1872, in said territory, was with
out validity or sanction of law, either as
an executive or legislative withdrawal.
He further held that the map of July
80. 1870, in the then territory OF Wash
lngton, was, as shown by the
certificates Of the chief engineer
of the company, the result of surveys
and explorations made for the purpose
OF determining the proper location of
the road, and indicated with certainty
that 1t was the intention of the com
pany that the route THUS designated
should be the general route contem-
plated by the act, upon which the legis-
lative withdrawal should take effect.
As the case of Cole is controlled by
the ruling upon the first proposition, it
was considered unnecessary to pass
upon the question as to the right of the
secretary to withdraw lands within the
indemnity limits of this road after the
definite location thereof; and hence no
decision was made upon this point.

RICH. BUT SLIGHTLY OFF.
A Fairy Story Regarding a st.
PaU COuDle

The appended press dispatch from
Chicago will furnish surprising
reading to many people in
st. Paul who know the parties
referred to and who read of their eIope-
ment in yesterdays GLOBE. Some one
has Numbered or some one has "drawn
the long bow" with an audacity that is
refreshing. The dispatch is bere given
as received, without alteration:
CHICAGO, July Paul &. Wood,
nehpew of ex-Minister Smith,
and cousin of Mayor Wright,
of st. Paul, is at present visiting
with his bride Of few days at the
residence of a friend on Oak Grove-ave-
nue., in Lake View, and the happy
young couple are taking in the
sights of the worlds fair and
subsisting upon love and an occa-
sional salad or cold bird. The state
ment naturally suggests the prelimi
naries so dear to the heart of
the society reporter. 1t sug--
gests Wedding bells, crowded
casters, pie knives, parental bless
ings, rice, old shoes, bridal wells
and numerous other accomplish
ments of swell wedding and
its consequent trip. But not this; no
floral bell shed its fragrance upon the
union of Paul and bis happy
bride. There were no pickle cast
ers, no pie knives, no bed quilts
worked by grandma, aged eighty-six,"
no rice, no old sboes-only the hurried
recital of the Episcopal marriage serv-
ice by sleepy clergyman in Wisc0n-
sin ''Gretna Green" and TWO trusty
friends for witnesses. For if the truth
must be told, Paul and his happy bride
elOped.
Paul is swell society leader in St.
Paul. He has plenty or money in his
own right. and he has seen only twenty
three sunny summers. His happy
bride is, or rather was, Miss Ella
EIoise Sprague. Originally she lived
in Dayton, o.. but during the
past two years her home has
been in that nti-Minneapolis town
st. Paul. Her father died some time
ago, land she has been living comfortably
with her mother, brother and sister, the
family being very well-to-do. She is
pretty girl, fascinating and highly i'll
telligent.

MONTANA's BABIES VAIL

The Montana convention appeals to
the country for the free coinage of siI-
yer at the sixteen to one ratio on the
ground that, taking into consideration
the money that has been unprotitably
invested i'll silver mining, the cost of the
bullion produced is equal to about S1.29
all ounce. But this is equally true of
gold mining. If the amount of money
spent and the value of labor put into all
the gOld-mining operations from the dis
covery of gold in 1913 to the present time
could be accurately ascertaned, it would
very nearly, if not quite, equal the gold
product. This is the opinion of men of
experience in the mining business.
Wheat is now selling in Western Min
neSota and the Dakotas for less than
the cost of production. There have
been seasons when corn was burned for
fuel in Iowa. Kansas and Nebraska, be-
cause it was cheaper than coal, and too
cheap at the market price. Cattle have
been sold for less than the cost of pro-
ducing. Farms have been sold for less
money than they cost.
The field of unproductive human
effort is broad and we'll filled one.
Look into any line of industry you may,
and the same story is to be read effort,
time, money spent exceeding returns
obtained. WELLS "Recent Economic
Changes" presents striking illustrations
of the enormous destruction of what
men had considered wealth by the
changes compelled by improved meth
DDS and machinery. There are vcissi-
tudes of business, as we'll as of lives.
Accidents, sickness, death are the in
separable attendants on life. Judg-
mentS are not infallible. Speculation
always carries with it the contingency
of loss. These things can not be evaded.
Men have always borne them, and al
ways will. They are among the condi-
| tions of existence. Organized society
cannot bear the burdens of all these
losses; cannot compensate for them.
| Why should it be asked to carry those
of any one class of producers? WHY
make good to the men who dig silver
| out of the earth their losses and refuse
insurance to the farmer, the merchant.
the manufacturer or the artisan? I'm
able to insure all recompense for labor
and means invested, simple Justice re-
qulres its refusal to all. The men of
Montana show spirit unworthy of
them in thus asking all of the people to
make good to them their losses and to
| insure to them profit in one of their
| enterprises.

A PRETTY GOOD LAW.

The last legislature seems to have
done good thing in passing law re-
quiring that the unused portion of the
annual appropriations for the state in
situations shall be Cancelled at the end
of each fiscal year, which is July 81,
unless the governor. attorney general
and secretary Of state decide that the
money is needed, and extend the ap-
preparations. Some of these institu-
tiOns have been pretty costly to the
state. all through large appropriations
which have been schemed through the
legislatures and used at the pleasure of
the managing boards. 1t appears now
that the boards have large accumula-
tons from appropriations of past years
standing to their credit; but it is doubt
full if it appears that they have made
much allowance for these balances in
their appropriations asked of the last
legislature, and which were allowed.
The records certainly show that they
did not make full allowance for them in
the appropriations they asked of pre-
ceding legislatures. 1t is too frequently
the case that managing board has no
thought for the welfare of the taxpayers
and great deal of thought for carrying
through the legislature the largest ap-
preparation possible, in order that it NAV
make some expensive gingerbread i'm
provement to hold up as a sample OF the
great work it is accomplishing. Natu-
| rally. they have pride in their institu-
tons, and seek to make them hand
some, inviting and convenient as posi-
bic; and in this pride they are likely to
overlook the necessities for economy.
The boards have no doubt been ac-
cumulating money to help them over
| times when legislatures which they are
| pleased to call penurious fail to give
them all they ask for the years appro-
| priatlons. Now and then there is a
legislature that makes a big cut in the
amounts asked, and for this the boards
generally have themselves to blame.
| There have been so many outrageously
large appropriations schemed through
the legislatures that there is some want
| of confidence in the financial manage
ment of many of the Institutions. Had
| the boards always acted fairly, they
would be sufficiently provided for by
every legislature. From now on they
can place little dependence oil being
able to preserve their balances at the
end of the fiscal year; hence they will
be forced to ask the legislatures for all
the money they expect to need during
each year. Some of them will probably
ask for much more than they need.
upon the theory that If the legislatures
cut them down they will secure enough.
This will be unwise, for it will tend to
promote the want of confidence in them.

NOTHING TO SAY. sIR.~

If the manner in which Senator
DAVIS received the reporter OF the
GLOBE who called to ask his opinion on
questions which are just now absorbing
the attention of ninety out of every
hundred of the senator's constituents is
any indication of his condition, the sem
ator is in very testy mood. This may
be due to the oppressive heat; 1t may be
due to the senator's liver; and it may,
again. be due to the chagrln caused by
his desertion by ali of the clamorous
and acclaiming crowd who joined him
IN go III sounding the praises of the
SHERMAN act.
But the senator should not forget
that he is senator; that when question
affects the public interests-a question
which he will have to take part in the
decision Oft is not impertinent for a
reporter to offer the services of his
paper as the channel of communication
for the senator's views. Neither mount
ing mercury nor rebellious liver should
be permitted to come between him and
his communication with his people. Nor
need the fear of inconsistency hold him
back when JOHN SHERMAN is not
ashamed to own his error.
But there is another reason, and a
larger one, why the senator should have
utilized the GLOBES offer to convey to
the public his opinions on the currency
question. The country, save a few
Pops and mine owners, is of the opin-
ION that the SHERMAN act is a chief
cause of the distrust which is paralyZ-
Ing business. The boards representing
the business interests of st. Paul have
taken action and asked special session
OF congress. They have expressed their
opinion of what is needed. The remedy
asked for lies with congress. The dis
trust would be relieved in great meas
ure If it were known that congress
would repeal the act. 1t was for the
purpose of getting enough opinions of
senators and congressman showing that
repeal was certain that the New York
Times and World asked the senator's
views, among the others. Had that cam
vass shown majority for repeal, bust
ness would have gained confidence at
once.
Senator DAVIS failed 10 contribute his
assurance or to make answer in any way.
1t was not known If he was for or
against repeal. His speech in 1890
would indicate that ne would oppose it.
He thus added to the uncertainty when
the occasion demanded certainty. 1t
was for the purpose of making it sure,
and conveying to the country the as
surance that the senator was on the side
of repeal, that the GLOBE sought the
interview. We regret his testiness.
which has only served to leave an i'm
portant question still in doubt. Il have
nothing to say. sir" is hardly the an
swer his constituents have a right to
expect from Senator DAVIS.
If. however, he does not wish to
make paper which has opposed him
the channel of communication, we
hasten to assure him that he may COM
nit his views to any of his own party
papers, and that then the GLOBE will
take it up and give his statement the
publicity it merits.

That impede Chicago wind.

Odd things'in fleece well oiled with grease

But Chicago claims all laurels
In hair combined with art
And relies on Moses Handy.
With his set of whiskers smart.
How graceful are the waverings,
As the wind they softly beat:
Combed down so fine. sight sublime,
The worlds fairs greatest treat.
Long may these whiskers wave
From that face so gay. SO bright
Famous as Samson's growths are they
In their days of greatest might.
Long may gentle Zephyrs
In these whiskers rest at peace.
In the world of fame they have name;
May their greatness never cease.

Rhode Islands Abandoned Farms.

Boston Herald.
The theory that manufacturing ere
ates home market which builds up the
farming interest receives bad blow
from statistics lately reported of the
state of Rhode Island. That state is
studded with manufactures as is no
state on the same area in the Union,
and yet it has more abandoned farms,
i'll proportion to its size, than any state
in New England or out of it. One town
is cited as containing no less than
eighty-nine abandoned farms, and this
town is within twenty miles of Provi-
dence-a city of over $4,000 people
and possessed of ready rail cOmmunica-
ton with that place. Providence county
has 1872 such farms, Washington county
155 and Kent 132-all teeming with
manufacturing or non-agricultural pop
ulation. 1t looks very much as if tie

another reaches its fullest fruition in
