GEORGIA'S HOKE.
HIS ACTS IN THE INTERIOR
DEPARTMENT CRITICISED.
TEN THOUSAND DOLLAR FEE
Which Ex-AttOrney Garland Says
Didn't go Where it Belonged
An investigation Threatened

Affairs in the Interior department of
the United States are likely to undergo
very vigorous investigation.
Ex-Attorney General Garland has a
grievance against Secretary Hoke
Smith which has sprung lively sensa-
ton.
1t is all about lawyer fee of S1O,-
900 which Ex-Attorney Garland claims
was due him but in some mysterious
manner found its way into the pocket
Col. James Cobb of Texas. The circum-
stances through which this fee was
diverted from it's legitimate destination
have caused no end of talk, and it is
said that the secretary's brilliant and
precipitate stroke of nepotism will cost
the United States government nearly
$135,000 per annum.
The New York World prints the fol-
lowing story on the subject:
'Ex-Attorney General Garland, of
President Cleveland's first cabinet, has
grievance against Hoke Smith, Sec
rotary of the Interior, and threatens to
| get an Investigating committee of the
the next congress to look into the leas-
ing of 2,250.OOO acres of grazing land in
Oklahoma territory at cents an acre

business with the interior department
through Colonel Cobb.
TO this communication the secretary
made no reply About the time that
bids should be received for next wears
leases inquiries were made of the sec
rotary as several competitors desired to
HE bids. Assurance was given that
Captain Baldwin, the Indian agent
would be instructed to receive bids for
the new lease dating from May LIST.
"A few days ago Colonel Cobb again
appeared in Washington, and Secretary
Hoke Smith received word that the
message to Captain Baldwin had mis-
carried and that hence no bids had
been received by him. .
Upon this, the secretary concluded
that he would not have time to receive
bids and would dispose of the matter
by extending the leases for one year.
sit was stated by a member of the
House from the West, who is familiar
with the whole matter, that in the
event the reservations were again leas-
ed at the ridiculously low figure of G
cents per acre, he would offer a resolu-
ton to investigate the matter. In the
face of today's developments, the same
member states that the matter will
most certainly be investiga ted. AS the
house is Republican, it is certain that
even if Mr.. Garland is pacifed, he and
others, including Colonel Cobb, will
have chance to tell what they know
about the transaction"
Secretary Smith denies that Colonel
Cobb is related to him and says that
Garland has no real grievance agains,
him.

swindling, sworn out by the POTTS.
Thompson Liquor Company, was car
ried before Justice Bloodworth last
week and bound over to Superior Court
Lithia Springs is located 20 miles
from Atlanta in Douglas county. A
prohibition law was passed for the
county and has been in force about ten
years, yet 'blind tigers" exist around
Lithia Springs and the good people of
the county have been considerably
annoyed by the violation of their law.
The murder of Bill Glover, marshal
at Lithia Springs, IN 1898, vet remains
mystery, but is attributed to the
illicit sale by the prohibiticnists.
Solicitor Richardson in 1898 succeeded
in convicting John NJ. James, the
father OF L. W. James ; also Jack Smith
and his wife, the sister of L. W. James.

paid. Bud Moody, one of L. W. James
chums, was convicted as blind tigerite
and is now serving out a term in the
chaingang,
A great deal of the political bitter
ness which exists in Douglas county is
attributable to the fight the Alliance
made against these blind tigers, and is
now being upheld by members of the
Peoples Party.
An effort was made by Mr. L. W..

FREE VEGETABLES.
Mayor Pingrees's Plan to Assist
the Poor.

Mayor Pingree of Detroit, who by
the way is Populist, has originated
a philanthropic measure which is caus-
ing the poor and INDECENT of the cities
to rise up and call him blessed.
Soon after assuming the duties of
Mayor he set himself to work to evolve
some scheme by which he could give
substantial aid to the poor of Detroit.
AS result he hit upon the novel plan
OF turning over to them the unoccupied
suburban lands of the city to be cult
waited ny them in vegetables.
Each applicant 10 allowed pre-
scribed amount of land free OF rent and
the seed to plant it with is also furn-
ished gratuitously by the the city.
Those who can do so, but fail to take
advantage of the offer are denied other
charities dispensed by the city.
In this way mayor Pingree reaches
that class whom it is both humane and
polite to aid-the most worthwhile
people who are willing to help them
selves.
There are thousands of hard working
people in every city who never know
the luxury of cabbage or a squash.
They may be on sale in the market
places but their small earnings have to
go for other necessaries which life de-
mands. BY the benifcence of Mayor
Pingree such unfortunates in Detroit
can not only have squashes and cab
bages occasionally, but great variety
of other vegetables that are fresh and
palatable.
Other cities are adopting the plan.
Omaha, Nebraska, was the first to fol-
low suit and now the board of trade of
Washington City has the matter under
discussion. There are great many
poor people in Atlanta and other South
ern cities who would like to see other
wise useless suburban lands so util-

Beef Trust Gags Butchers.

The New York World says when the
price of beef went up several days ago
the retail butchers loudly denounced
the Western trust, which, they said,
was responsible for it all.
All this is changed now. The retail
ers no longer blame the trust. They
are even inclined to deny that they
ever knew or heard anything about a
trust.
The World has discovered the reason
for this sudden change of front. When
the discussion of the trusts despotism
was at it's height word was passed
along the line that the combine would
cease to furnish meat TO those who
talked too much. Several large whole
sale firms through whom the trust fur
nishes this city with meat conveyed
the intelligence to the retailers, and
there Immediately ceased to be any
clamor about the trust.
Under a solemn promise to withhold
their identity several butchers impart-
ed this information yesterday to re-
porter for The World
"When we are now asked why beef
is so high priced" said one in Washing
ton Market, 1--WE have been instructed
to ascribe it to over-demand and under
production and to the circumstance that
cattle have been fed this season on the
best corn. The truth is just the other
way. Cattle are not scarce at all, and
their feed is for the most part nothing
but oil-cake."

of the Interior. Mr.. Garland was Joined
in the matter by Colonel James Cobb,
of Fort Worth, Texas, cousin of the
Secretary of the Interior. Colonel
Cobb came to Washington and was a
guest at Mr.. Hoke Smiths house. The
secretary@approved the contract sub
mitted by the cattlemen and the latter
thought they succeeded by reason of
the fact that Colonel Cobb was a cousin
of the secretary.
They intimated that they did not
care to pay Mr.. Garland the amount
agreed upon.
"Mr. Garland complained to the Sec
rotary of the Interior and the cattle
men paid Mr.. Garland his fee. SThe
same O. tlemen wanted to get the con-
tract aSain this year. Mr.. Garland
claimed that his original understanding
was that if he succeeded last year, he
should have $4,000, and that if they
secured it again the coming year, he
should have another $4,000. Mr. Gar
land informed Secretary Hoke Smith of
this alleged agreement some time ago,
and he says he understood the secretary
to say in reply, that he would see to it
that Mr.. Garland received his fee this
year before the leases were renewed to
the same cattlemen, Mr.. Garland relied
upon this understanding, but the leases
were simply extended today for an
other year to the same cattlemen, and
Mr.. Garland's fee has not been secured.
''Within the last two months Secre-
tary Hoke Smith has been notified in
writing that the lands thus leased for
6 cents per acre would bring IL cents.
In fact. resolution was introduced in
the last house calling upon the secre-
tary not to lease those reservations for
another year for less than 10 cents per
acre, but its was smothered in the com
mittee.
SIN the written communication re-
ferred to, the secretary was asked to
require competitive bids for the leases
this year, and he was assured chat if he
would do this he would certainly get 10
cents and probably ~ cents per acre, or
from 100000 to 81 35, 900 more per annum
than the present lease brought
SIT was also stated that soon after
the last lease was approved, the secre-
tary's cousin, Colonel Cobb, was paid
by the cattlemen securing the lease,
$4,000 for his infence or services. The
secretary was also informed in this
communication that the Chief Of the
Kiowas, Quanniparker, is receiving $3.50
per month from the cattlemen by way
of keeping him quiet, and that other
Indians likely to comprehend that they
are only receiving half enough rental
for their lands. are placed on the roll of
benefciaries by the cattlemen doing

JOHNS RELIGION.
1t is for Sunday, Not the Bargain
Counter.

According to the Washington Post,
John Wanamaker, the bargain counter
saint of Philadelphia, lives up to the
theory that it only pays to be pious on
Sunday. The Post says:
John Wanamaker, whom NAV the
gods continue to stuff with eloquence
and JUNCTION, presents the pathetic
| spectacle of righteous man who can
not afford to be truly good more than
one day in the week. In the April
number of To- Day he makes the sad
admission that if he were to conduct
his business on the principle of Broth
erly Love-the principle he promul-
gates so sweetly and so smoothly every
Sunday-he would be in the sheriff IS
hands before the next slaughter sale in
summer underwear could roll around.
THAT this remarkable statement will
occasion wide comment and discussion
need hardly be said, Here is a good
and pious man, redolent of the odor of
sanctity, bubbling over with holy adj
monition, reeking with the spirit of
rectitude and charity, who confesses
that he cannot afford to practice what
he breaches, and admits that, since he
cannot fall into the Lords hands with
out first passing through the sheriff S,
he prefers to keep his Christianity for
the Sabbath and give six days to god
lessness at the shop. Religion, as he
sees it, is all very well at Bethany
among the elect and where it costs
nothing save little laHguage, but it
won't do for the Chestnut street bazaar
where merchandise is on tap and Paris
thoughts prevail. John can manage to
be saint on Sunday. He can swim
sweetly into Bethany ChapeIlr-; 8, lung iig
into the sisters ycdrnlng hearts, but
hs can anord any nonsense during
the other six days of the week and he
frankly confesses that he does not pgous,
pose to try it. ~aNas ~
