SHORT STOPS.
what the People are Saying.

q
The people are watching the fight going
| on between Judge Caliaghan and his hap
ply family, and whether real or pretended
the fight is quite interesting.
Whatever may be the motive Of Judge
Callaghan in sitting down upon the So
called nvestigation.o f,the courthouse Job,
he has the sympathy of the best citizens
only they don't believe him sincere.
1t looks too much like struggle for
bosSism, and If the commissioners will
place their political necks under Bryan's
good white paint.
1t is strange that the county commits
sioners should go into an investigation
of their own conduct, put the county to
u big expense TO pay experts, lawyers,
etc, just to vindicate themselves from
charges set up by the grand jury
1t is true that an open investigation
was demanded by the architects and con-
tractors: they were really the last people
to be consulted, and could demand moth
ing unless called on: they are the' en-
pIoyes of the comfy commissioners.
Much of the expert testimony given
during this. investigation was ridiculous
and misleading. Had two experienced,
competent Architects been employed and
given entire liberty to examine the work,
their report would have settled all the
questions In dispute.
Judge Callaghan is certainly on the
right track, whether he will stay there
remains to be seen. The sword play
over the mayorship will no doubt, settle
the rumpuS.

LAND OFFICE MATTERS,
SOME TALK REGARDING WORK
IN THE GENERAL OFFICE.
Hereafter No Case Can be Made Special
without an order from the secre-
tary OF the Interior.

A recent dispatch states that for
some time the matter of whether or
not any case In the general land Office
would be made special has been under
confederation. The demand, in the
main, comes from Oklahoma, where
there is a rush in the hope that bust
ness may bc disposed Of In many IN
stances the decision in one case will be
precedent that will determine a
number of others and, although in
many single cases the rights OF many
are concerned, in these two classes OF
cases especially is great demand Tor
prompt work in the land office. This
situation has forced the issue of maxi
ing certain cases special and is passed
upon by the secretary of the Interior
In making the decision there is some
thing very suggestive. In passing
upon the matter the secretary changes
the old time rule materially. For
merlv il has been the custom for the
commissioners of the land office to run
his own Office and he could make a
case special il he wanted TO and did
not have TO ask the secretary anything
about It. In the decision given out to-
day it is held that no case can be made
special without the order from the
secretary.
The commissioner of the land office
Is not given the case to decide, but it
is taken out of his hands and placed
before the secretary of the interior
Then the order announces that it will
be practically impossible to get any
case made special II is the policy OF
the office TO fail to see that any partic-
ular case is of more importance than
any other, and all will be taken up in
turn. 1t is also given out that the
Office at this time is eight months be-
hind in its business, and this being
true none of the cases recently placed
on the docket can be expected to be
passed upon before that time.
