FIJI LAND CLAIMS.

hhiN SihAAhS Az l. ~ WOW h''N'
in the State Department at Wash
ington before the close of Mr..
Cieveland's administration. They
belong to a large number Of
claims preferred in appeal from
the decision of a British Land
Commission nearly twenty years
ago, the claimants being American,
British and German. Prince
Bismarck when Chancellor in
sisted upon an investigation of
the German claims, which result.
ed in the award of many thous-
ands of pounds as compensation
to the Germans whose titles had
been disallowed by the Commits
sion. American and British
claimants have still their griev.
ance to nurse. The British hope
that the United States Govern.
ment will push the matter to
settlement, for, as writer in the
Sydney Telegraph puts it, "if the
Americans succeed, as succeed
they must should the matter be
pressed home, with these and the
Germans compensated, for very
shame's sake the despoiled
Britisher will be accorded a right
to prove his title before an i'm.
partial tribunal" Th3 entire
merits of the case would make too
long story for these columns.
For about twenty years before the
British annexation OF the group in
1874, many foreigners entered
and leased or bought land from
the chiefs who held under feudal
tenure. Conveyances we're loose in
many instances, sometimes being
made to more than one buyer of
the same land. 1t was to settle
the resulting tangle that the Com.
mission sat after annexation. For
a time titles were being ratified on
proof of sale given by the
chiefs who sold, but after a
while the Governor, Sir Arthur
Gordon, who as head Of the Com
mission had absolute power, arbi-
trarily changed the basis of title.
1t should be stated that the lands
were to be apportioned in three
divisions, namely, lands alien
ated to foreigners by bona fide
sale; 2, lands occupied by tribes
or required for the probable sup
port of chiefs or tribes, and, 3,
Crown Landslide entire remand
er. Sir Arthur, when the work
had advanced somewhat, saw that
so much had been alienated there
would be little or no Crown lands
left. He therefore decreed that
the tenure of land from which the
titles were to derive should be the
prehistoric patriarchal tenure in
stead of the feudal tenure obtain
ing at the time of the white mans
occupation. Thenceforth the at
testers to the title of claim
ants had to- be the lineal
descendants of the ancient
patriarchal occupiers of the land
and not the chiefs who sold to the
applicants for title. 1t thus hap
pened that the evidence of a man
living on a different island from
that on which a particular piece
Of land was situated, that he had
never consented to the sale in
question, was enough to have
claim disallowed AS an instance of
the Wholesale despoiling of titles
bought with good money, it is
mentioned that single issue of
the Royal Gazette gave notice of

sPECIAL NOTICES.

Our 1897 $75 Union at $40 still continues
all the go, Those who are buying this
wheel are wise, for very soon we will be
compelled to eau halt, because we can't
get any more at any such figure, for SO
prices will soon prevail
We are assured by the Sterling repre-
sentative that this beautiful wheel will
be very much improved; in fact almost
entirely remodeled for 80; the tubing will
be larger and a number of other import
ant changes will be made; 1898 models will
be here Dec. to 10.
The Sterling chainless will be without a
peer in mechanism and beauty
The Dayton bicycle is so well and favor
ably known that comments from us are
hardly necessary. We will, however, state
that even the $50 Dayton will be big i'm.
provement on the 500 81 model, and the
SIS '9S will be an entirely new wheel. Well.
the chainless will simply be, as to merit,
in equal proportion TO the other models
We prophesy a Dayton boom in Savannah
for next year.
The Dayton chainless will not be under
the regular license, but an independent
one altogether.
The Wolff-American will be very largely
in evidence in 1898. Already the Wolff is
making a substantial show on our streets,
the great feature of excellence in this
wheel Is easy running qualities. The IS
bars and seat post will be adjusted with
out aid of wrench We do not believe
a better wheel is made than the Wolff
American.

My call on Mr.. Mckinley was en-
tirely social in it's nature, and was
made by me for the purpose of get
ting better acquainted with the Pres
ident. Our conversation was such a
one as any two men in public life
would have, the questions of the day
being touched on only in the most
general way. and no attempt being
made by either party to introduce
questions on which we knew we diff
fered. l was much impressed with
Mr.. Mckinley, and told him that, no
matter what his politics were, he
had the advantage of coming into
the White House with the cleanest
personal record of any President for
the last twenty-five years.
am sure of the fact that the pres
| ent executive is an honest man, heart

give an honest administration, ac-
lcording to the teachings of his party.

M'KINLEY AT NASHVILLE.
The President and Party Attend the Tennessee
Exposition.

NASHVILLE, June 1.-THE train
bearing President Mckinley and
party arrived at q. m. The party
was escorted to the Maxwell house
by a squad of mounted ex-Confeder-
ate soldiers in uniform.
President McKinley's speech at the
Tennessee exposition, in part, was as
follows:
"Officers of the Tennessee Centen-
nial Exposition, Ladies and Gentle
men: American nationality, CON-
pared with that Of Europe, is still
young, and yet already we are begin
ming to have age enough for centen-
nial anniversaries In states other
than the original thirteen. Such
occasions are always interesting.
Combining retrospective and review,
they recall what has been done by
the state and nation and point out
what remains to fulfill their highest
destiny. This celebration marks
the end of the first century of
Tennessee and the close of the first
year of it's second century. One hun
dred and one years ago this state
was admitted into the great family
of American commemorative. 1t
was welcome addition to the
national household, with fond anti
cipations not only OF it's founders,
but faith in it's success on the part of
far-seeing and sagacious statesmen
In all parts of the country. These
anticipations have been grandly re-
allied. The present of this commun-
ity of sterling worth is brighter than
theprophets of the past had dared to
forecast it,"
