He is of the opinion that this state can

that the only way 10 put the game

MINNESOTA STATE NEWS.
ssSectiou 3d."

Secretary Francis has rendered an
other decision In the case of Minnesota
against William Craig. involving 40
acre tract of land embraced in the
Section 80" case. The decision was
on a motion fled by the state for a re-
view of the departmental decision, in
which Secretary Smith affirmed the
commissioners decision denying the
states application for hearing to de-
termine whether the land was swamp
at the date Of grant in 1850. The pres
emit secretary denies the motion very
briefly. He says there is no specifca-
ton of errors set forth, clearly and
concisely," as required by the rules OF
practice, and further, that the argu-
ment presented does not raise any new
point of law or fact presented by the
state which would warrant q review of
the previous decision. This proba bly,
disposes of the contest over one of the
most valuable tracts of land in Mime

This is why the sons of Erin wear the EN-

It is a pleasure for to see the Hiberninn Band

In this country of the free when foemen

And for old glory on many a hard contested
The sons of old Erin their lise's blood did

And when Jubal Early on that September

In the Shenandoah Valley blew his horn,
He had the boys in blue on the run,
Until "litue Phil" rode up the line and

Up the Valley with fearful den,
Rode that hero with his brave men,
Held Early and his men all in II cluster,
Thanked on the right and left by Cook

Where is that Irishman in this fair land?
That is not proud of that Hibernian Band,
In every land and DER every sen,
They have fought the battles ofthe free.
And today they ask OF their patron Saint,
To bestow on them, without restraint,
Equal blessings with our own America.
For this we ask and sincerely pray,
And hope 1t may come on st. Patrick's Day.
