church is still going on. There
have been several additions to the
church. and on Wednesday night
four we're baptized. There are
still those who come forward ana
kneel for prayer, while several,
almost persuaded, manifest their
contrition by standing and request
ing the prayers OF the church.
It is earnestly hoped that every

one left in this town to adI"cat"
the cause of the wicked one.

Trouble for Many.

TOPEKA, January 24.-Subpenas are being
issued BY the clerk of the United States cir
cult court for over 1000 settlers on land:
purchased by them from the Union Pacific
Railroad company in Dickinson, Ellsworth
and Saline counties.
They are asked to answer to a suit brought
by the United States government TO oust
them from the lands which were granted to
the Union Pacific railroad by an act of con.
gress and afterward SO d 10 settlers.
The government. or at least the govern
ment's lawyer, claims that through tech
nical error the grant of the lands to the
railroad company was invalid, SO the land
should revert to the government and be
opened to settlement under the homestead
Law.
The lands include some of the richest
farming region in the state, being In the
bottoms of the Kansas, Solomon and Smoky
Hill rivers. The lands were nearly all pur-
chased from the railroad company many
years ago and the country is thickly popu.
lated and the farmers are among the most
prosperous in the state.
The Gaze is set for hearing before Judge
Foster on February 4.

Morgan to the Rescue.

morgan 10 the rescue.
WASHINGTON. D. c.. January Ex-senator
Morgan, of the COMMITTEES on Indian affairs,
has stated to Delegate Flynn that hs would
have the provision added to the general In.
dian bill opening to settlement the Kiowa.
Comanche and Apache reservations when
that bill is considered in the senate. The
senator also said he would endeavor to have
the three years provision taken out of the
bill as placed by the house in the Wichita
provision. The senator stated that he be.
lieved it would be good plan to word tho
bill % 40 to make 1t imperative on the secre-
tary of the interior to open all that country
to settlement within six months after the
passage of the bill.
There is also reason to believe that the
other members of the senate committee will
support Senator Morgan in his position.
A member of the Chickasaw and Choctaw
lobby stated that as they wanted their money
out of the claim to the lands held by the two
tribes they would favor the approval of the
a9rt ement; provided always their claim was
allowed.
They would not care how long it took the
secretary of the interior to open tho lands
to settlement. as they were not working for
the settler, but working for their claim. In
the event their claim was not allowed he felt
certain they could prevent legislation. The
Chickasaw and Choctaw delegates sent here
country are $50 interested in getting this
claim. The home talent is working with
the old time lobby making this contract.
They in sist that their gull to prevent legis-
lation affecting their country can also be
utilized to defeat any legs alton in the direc.
ton of opening these lands to settlement,
unless their claim is allowed.
