GREAT BRITAIN'S IRE.
Roused Against Sicararuan Occupation OF
Bluefields.

Panama, Nov 2T.-Adyices from
Managua indicate "A grave situation In
the Mosquito reservation. The British
minister, Goshing. has notified Nicar-
aqua that Great Britain refuses to rec
ognize the Nicaraguan government.
After an exchange of views, Minister
Goshing telcgraphed to Port Limon
for a British warship to come at once
to Bluefelds. 1t is reported that the
Nicaraguan canal project is at the bot
tom of the matter and serious trouble
is feared.
Washington, Nov. 2T.-It is difficult
to confirm here officially the report
which comes from Panama of fresh
troubles ut Bluehelds. DR.. Guzman
the Nicarag guam minister, was dplo-
matically silent when the subject was
mentioned and the state department
officials assume an air of reserve.
That they are informed on the sub
iect however. cannot be doubted and
the strongest confirmation of the ac-
curacy of the report is found in the
fact that the United States steamship
Columbia, which has been lying at
Kingston, has gone directly to Blue
fields and will doubtless reach that
place as soon as the British warship
from Port Limon, Costa Rica. If the
facts are as reported, then the situa
tion is undoubtedly one of great gray-
ity. The mention of the Nicaraguan
canal as being the real cause of the
British action goes to confirm the sus-
picions that has long been cherished
here that Great Britain really cares
nothing for the Mosquitoes themselves,
but is disposed TO insist upon its pro
tectoratc over the reservation in order
to base II claim of jurisdiction over
that part of the old reservation which.
they have coutended, extended as far
south rs the eastern mouth of the
Nicaraguan canal.
Should this claim be maintained it
would, of course, operate to prevent the
United States from controlling the
projected Nicaraguan canal if. indeed,
it should not cause the abandonment
of the project. 1t is undoubtedly n
matter of great annoyance to our state
department that this trouble on the
Bluefields subject should be opened by
Great Britain's summary action when
it was supposed the difficulties had
been adjusted in n manner entirely
satisfactory to all parties concerned.
However. the prompt dispatch of the
Columbia to the scene of trouble is an
evidence that the state department is
not to be taken unawares by such pro-
ceedings, and she will doubtless pre-
serve the statu quo there willie nego-
tiations are progressing.

He was traced from the house to the

Wisconsln's Populist Vote.

Madison, Wis. Nov. 2.-The most
striking thing about the official returns
filed with the secretary of state Is the
great increase in the Populist vote of
the state during the last two years.
Their vote this year for governor Is al
most three times that of two years
ago. In the two years the vote has in
creased from 900 to over 1000. A
careful estimate of the results of the
recent election based on the official
returns received from fifty-fiye coun-
ties shows that upham's vote will be
over 81 per cent. of the total number
pollnd. The Democrats cast for their
state ticket Il little less than 80 per
cent of the total vote. The Populists
have over I per cent. of the whole vote
and the Prohbitionists less than 3 per
cent.
Judging from the vote in the counties
that have made returns so far Up
hams vote will be over 25,0OO more
than Spooner received in 1892. Gov
ernor Peck has fallen behind his vote
of 1892 by almost 10000 votes. The
Peoples party has gained over 10000
votes and the Prohibitionists have lost
nearly 1000 votes. OF the tifty-fivc
counties that have made returns eleven

ARID LAND LAW.
Good Chances Open for Settlement of
rroperty.

Property.
Washington, Nov. 24.-There are vari-
GUS schemes to utilize the arid land law
that was passed at the last session OF
congress. 1t gives the new states AMI
territories 100000 acres each of gov
ernment lands IL they will redeem
them. Among the schemes proposed Is
one for the states to build irrigation
bitches with labor brought from the
overcrowded towns and cities OF the
East and TO pay for that labor half i'll
cash and half in land to be occupied
when the irrigation works are complet-
ed. 1t will, however be difficult to In
duce any great number of city people
to go West under such conditions.
1t Is proposed to establish model ir-
rigation colony somewhere in the West
for the purpose of demonstrating what
can be done by n single man in the
way of agriculture If his labors are
properly directed. Five thousand acres
of land will be taken in some locality
convenient to water and transporta-
ton facilities and 100 farmers placed
ON it with farms of from 20 to 40 acres
each. They will be organized on the
village system as adopted by the Mor-
mons in order to avoid the objections
that people in thickly settled portions
of the country invariably raise when
they are recommended to 20 West. The
farmers will live in n village with
schools and churches just as convenient
as they have them in Ohio or Massa-
chusetts and have their barns and
storehouses on their farms which will
not be more than three miles away ut
the farthcst. Their wives and chill
dren will have plenty of society and
there will be store established by tho
association at which they can procure
at reasonable prices everything they
need This is the plan suggested by
Brigham Young and it has proved to be
very effective in keeping the Mormons
contented and happy and in promoting
education and adherence to the doc
trinps of the church.

Salt Lake, Utah, Nov. Ex-Governor
West received letters to-day from the
shcrin and other officials of San Juan
County. Utah. asking for assistance i'll
driving ont 800 Ute Indians. These
Indians have come over from the Los
Pinus agency in Colorado, bringing
with them 10000 sheep and 1000 cat
tie. They state that they Were sent by
Indian Agent Day, who told them that
they had right to occupy these lands.
They have driven the settlers from
grazing lands and announce that they
will fight rather than return to Colo
RADIO. About 800 Navajo Indians have
also left their reservation in this ter
ritnry and seem to have formed an al
lance with these UtcS. There are not
sufficient white settlers in the country
to cope with the Indians. They are in
a bclligcrcnt mood and the settlers are
greatly alarmed.
