VIM Bryan caught the gold-bng
orators OF both sides Of the hip when
he said at Tivoli-ou-Hudsuu:
If the silver miner, under the law Of
free coinage, finds that silver bullion
is raised 80 that that which is 0
worth so cents will be worth 100 cents,
then there are no 50-cent dollars, and
if the other man is correct and the
law adds nothing 10 the value of the
metal, and You simply convert so
cents worth Of silver ino a 50-cent
dollar, then the mine.owner has not
made a cent

A Local I.and Decision.

Register w n. O'Tooie and Receiver
John Y. Terry, OF the local land office OH
Saturday decided that A. A. Richardson Is
entitled 10 embrace I'm his homestead en-
try forty acres of Claliam county land on
which he has been living for ffve years,
and on which he has placed valuable i'm
provements to the value OF sl.o0. but
which by an inadvertence was entered IN
another mans name.
The history OF the case as developed at
the hearing is an interesting one. Rich
ardson came into the land office June %,
1891. and entered the the northwest quar-
ter Of the northwest quarter OF a certain
section Of lard. alleging settlement April
l. 1881. With him came one Waronka. who
entered with other land, the northeast
quarter Of the northwest quarter OF he
same section. II now develops that this
northeast quarter was the one on which
Richardson had actually settled. and TO
which iheregister and the receiver think o
should be entitled The decision makes a
direct charge of fraud against Waronka,
saying:
When Richardson made out his entry
papers in the land Office Waronka was
fully aware that Richardson had made a
mistake He then and there made W mis-
mind TO take an unfair advantage Of Rich
ardson. determining 10 lay claim to this
land though aware that he had never
lived upon Ii or iUprov ed II. but that on
the contrary Richardson had lived on and
improved Il for years. and had paid Wa
ronka money for doing work on the same
land"
The decision points out strong presump-
dive evidence against Warunka in the fact
that the Quarter section in controversy "a
not the same nor in any wise embraced In
the ncishhor land on which WRronka
has actually settled and on which he has
made all his improvements. never attempt
ing AZ any time 70 make any improve
ment- on the land which he knew was
Y,oLs-s on by Richardson as his own home
Warouka Is charged not only with sharp
uractI-e but with having practically
committed perjury In making his entry"
