Grants death Qn October. 1852 that Gen.
Badeau sent a letter to Mrs. Grant, asking
profits Of the work, which had already be-
gun to pour in. He inclosed with his letter
q copy of the agreementwhich Gen. Grant
had given him in May. When Mrs. Grant
received this letter she set apart sum Of
money to be used in satisfying the Badeau
claim in case 1t should aprove to be just
She did not want to pay amy Of this to Gen.
Badeau, however, unless he would give a
receipt stating exactlt, the work which he
had done on the book:f Mrs. Grant con-
suited Roscoe Conklirigs about the matter
at the time, and he supported her position.
rubliettS Given.
The matter remained unsettled and gen.
orally unknown until June, 1887, when Gen.
Badeau, through his attorneys, offered to
submit it to arbitration, but Col Fred.
Grant, for his mother, declined to do this,
and again offered to, pay Gen. Badeau on
the conditions named before. Then Gen.
Badeau brought the matter into the news
papers. and made the statement that he
was in some measure the author of the
Grant memoirs. This statement was dis
puted by the Grant family, and the cor
respondence quoted above was given to the
started the discussion Of the authorship of
the memoirs, and friends Of both parties
to the controversy were quoted.
The friends of Gen. Badeau testified to the
Grant and tried to prove that Gen. Grant
never could have written the memoirs.
They pointed to the fact that Grant was
near the bottom of his class at West Point
twenty-first In class of twenty-nine), as
he himself said in the story Of his life They
claimed that he was incompetent to do the
work. On the other hand those who had
known Gen. Grant well testified that he had
very strong, terse style and that the Ian
guage Of the memoirs was plainly his lam
guage.
His Ability as n Writer.
Gen. Ruggles. who was one Of Grants
aids and was with him at the Military
Academy years before, said that while he
would never have expected young Grant to
develop into a writer, he found when in
service with him that he could express him
self extremely well, that he wrote all of his
orders himself and that he never asked
and others recognized Grants converse ton
al style all through the book. The burden
of proof seemed to be on the Grant side
The Badeau claim was compromised final
ly in private for 5000.
If Badeau had been able to persuade
Grant to give him 10 per cent of the profits
of the book, he would have received fully
$4,000 in addition to the $4,000 for which
of publication the publishers of the memoirs
had given Mrs. Grant two checks for $780,
600 and $150.000 respectively and some
smaller amounts. In addition to this money
Mrs. Grant received $l35,OOO from the sale
of her house in New York, which had been
the gift of some wealthy men, and this
money she put out at interest through Geo.
w. Childs. most of 1t being lent on improved
real estate in Washington. Mrs. Grant has
also a pension of 5000 from the govern
ment. 1t was not lack of money that made
her dispute the Badeau claim, but respect
for her husbands memory

The Populists are becoming alarmed
They find that the farms Of the country
are being worked by tenants to a greater
extent than ever before and therefore The
ownership Of lands is passing into tie
hands of the hated capitalists. And .the
Pops are right. The land is being owned
by the capitalists of the country. Under
a wise and benefcent system Of Republi-
can legislation the farmers Of the country
have become capitalists, and hosts Of
them have rented their farms and moved
into the towns. Every village, big and
little, is filled with retired farmers living
at ease in their declining years, off from
the products of their farms and former
labors. They live in Blue Earth City,
and Winnebago City, and Easton, and
Wells, and Delavan, and Minnesota Lake,
and Gilmore. There is nothing to be
scared about. They are the very best
