PLEASED WITH sHERMAN's BOOK
A Cinci matt Newspaper Believes 1t a
Valuable Historical Volume.

Valuable Historical Volume.
Cincinnati, Oct. 20-The Enquirer cd
itorially says: The Enquirer presented
yesterday enough about the new book
by Senator John Sherman to indicate
that it is probably the most valuable
contribution to the political history of
this country published for generation.
Sherman always has been a party man,
but history can not be written like a
campaign document and this historian
can not expect to escape harsh feelings
and perhaps severe criticism if he
writes of the times in which he acted
himself.
Sherman speaks in high terms of the
personality and eloquence of Garfield,
but says he was a man lacking in will
power and changed his opinions easily.
This Is faithful picture, expressed in
terms of reserve. Sherman might have
gone farther and only reflected the
views of contemporaneous republican
politicians who had association with
the martyr president and said that
while Garfield was a good stumper and
qualified to act in executive bodies I'M
der direction and restraint he was I'M
fit for leadership.
Sherman's book gives some indie
pendent views touching ex-President
Harrison that may be of immediate
application, and his criticism Of the
Grant administration will be of service
in teaching the people that under our
system of government all wisdom and
practical knowledge of affairs need not
necessarily be centered in the chief ex-
ecutive. The president of the United
States who undertakes to run every
thing in person is usually the most con-
spicuous failure.

Durrant and King Told Him of Scandal.
Gus Proceedings.

Durrant and King Told Him of Scandal.
Gus Proceedings.
San Francisco, Oct. 20.-The prosecu-
ton in the Durrant trial has found a
witness who will testify that everything
was not right in Emanuel church prior
to the murder of Blanche Lamont and
Minnie Williams. This witness is col
ored bootblack by the name of Budd
Wilson Tonight he was served with a
subpoena and told his story to De-
tective Seymour.
II knew King and Durrant so well
that they talked freely before me-" said
he. "At first l was surprised that such
religious young men should be carry
ing on in such a fashion, but after a
while concluded that they were about
the same as other young men. 1 learned
from these two boys themselves that
they were taking girls to the church
every night. / often heard them tell
of the fun they had there and of the
different girls who accompanied them.
I know myself of five girls who used
to go to the church at night with those
boys. The people in the Mission would
be very much surprised If they knew
who the girls were. They ali belong to
respectable families and the worst of
1t all Is that their parents never dream
ed that such things were going on"
District Attorney Barnes has decided
not to introduce any experts on hand
writing in rebuttal. The defense did
not go into this matter as deeply as was
expected, so that there is no real need
of following up the handwriting ex-
hibits on behalf of the people. Besides,
there is so little writing on the wrapper
and newspaper which enclosed Blanche
Lamont's ring that 1t would be very
difficult to prove by expert testimony
that 1t had been written by any par
ticular Individual.

n HAS LONG BEEN IN DISPUTE


Tract in Question Wen Covered by Bus.
ness Houses and Dwellings.
This important decision affects that
part of the townsite of Wallace lying
north of the alley between Cedar and
Pine streets and embracing about a
third of the town. The disputed land
Is well covered with business houses
and residences and many of the lots
thereon have sold for from $1,000 to
$1,000
This land was originally located by
Colonel w. r. Wallace under duplicate
Sioux script issued to half-breed In
dian named Walter Bourke. The du-
plicate script entry was cancelled by
the land department in 1889 on account
OF the original script having already
been filed upon land in South Dakota
As soon as this fact became known
all unoccupied lots We're settled upon
by squatters who hoped to get the title
from the government. That part of the
townsite lying south of the alley was
upon an even numbered section and
patent was issued to j, l.. Dunn as trus-
tee, who decided those lots to settlers
occupying them. That north of the al
ley and upon the odd numbered section
was claimed by the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company, and through it's
representative at Tacoma, who was
sent to Wallace, it decided or quit-claim-
ed to settlers it's interest in all improved
lots excepting strip of land along the
south side OF the river, and four lots
on Sixth street, which were reserved for
right of way and prospective depot
grounds.
Interested settlers on these lots and
strip, and also settlers on the odd num-
bered section who did not see fit to buy
quit claim from the railroad company,
had meetings and decided to contest
the matter. The local land office at
Occur d'Alene City decided in favor of
the Northern Pacific, as did also the
general land office at Washington, d.
G. The probability of the case being
carried to the supreme court will de-
pend great deal upon the report of the
government mineral land commission
recently appointed.
