It is not consistent to sell furniture at
"cheap" prices and claim that it is "good"
furniture. If you want good furniture
make up your mind that it is not to be
bought "cheap''-any more than anything
else that is good But good furniture
can be sold more cheaply in some shops
than in others. That's what you should
look into.

City-DEAR SIR: We have your communication
of July 10, and note your suggestion that we
turn over the proposed California building to
some organization of exhibitors. We are 10th
to accept yonr suggestion in the exact form in
which you putt, for the reason that at the

are going in, nor who the exhibitors are to be.
There is one organization in which we have
implicit confidence, and that organization is
the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. We
are entirely. willing to place the building in
the hands of your organization. We will give
you without charge 1000 feet of any part of
the building you desire to select, and allow
you, in consultation with US, to allot space and
to plan rules in just such shape as you see fit.
Will you kindly take this matter up at your
earliest opportunity and inform US of the
result. Very truly yours.

Given the Title Where Placer Ground
Exists on the same Location.
Washington, March 1.-Two de-
cisions have been recently made by Sec
rotary Smith on which the decision of
the last administration in the some
what celebrated Pixies Peak case has
been overruled. The decision affects
mining cases where disputes arise be-
tween placer and lode claims. Secre-
tary Smith decides that when 1t has
been ascertained by the department or
determined by a court Of competent
Jurisdiction that a lode claim exigts
within the boundaries Of land covered
by placer patent, that such lode claim
was known to exist at the date of ap-
plication for such patent and was not
applied for by the proper claimant the
land In the lode Is reserved from opera
ton Of conveyance, and patent may Is
sue for such lode, IL the law has been
in other respects fully complied with.
The first decision Is In the case of n.
}. Mcconnell known as the South Star
lode case. and the other Is the Plain
View Mining and Milling Company and
Charles II. Peters, James H. Freeman.
known as the Freeman placer case.
QUARTER SECTION LAW.
Secretary Smith has overruled the
commissioner Of the general land office
IN decision affecting the selection of
lands to complete the grants of the
state of Idaho under the enabling act.
The commissioner held several selec-
lions for cancellation because the par
tcular tract selected was less than a
quarter section, the law providing that
selections for losses must be in tracts
OF not less than quarter section. The
secretary states that in the cases chosen
by the commissioner il appears that
there are other selections by the state
or adjoining tracts Of less than one
quarter OF a section and he constiues,
the law TO mean that the state shall
make its selection in as compact a form
as possible and that it's lands shall not
be scattered about in 40 and SO-acre
tracts. When there are other selections
adjoining, making in all more than a
quarter section, the secretary holds that
they are valid.
