IN IMPORTANT RULING.
Final Proof May be Submitted on
Desert Land Entries By the
Use of Rented Water.

The register and receiver Of the local
land office, at Blackfoot, are In receipt
OF a letter from the Hon. Commissioner
OF the general land Office with relation
to the final proof submitted by Presto
Burrell, OF Presto, this county, on des-
ert land entry No. 1886. The proof
was rejected by the land Office for the
reason that the claimant did not own
sufficient water to permanently irrigste
the land embraced in his entry, and
the papers were sent to the commits
sioner, on appeal. II was shown in
this case that the land had been prop
erly irrigated and reclaimed by the
entryman, who made affidavit TO the
effect that the land embraced in his
entry had been irrigated from water
rented annually from the Idaho Canal
company, and that he had had the use
of said water for five years. and that he
would continue TO 80 rent this water
until further provisions could be made
for securing u permanent water right
In ruling on this case, the depart
mept held that Mr.. Burrell had suffi
cieutly proven his right to the perma
nent use Of the water claimed, ant
made reference 70 Sec. IA OF an act ap
proved March Z, 1895. Session Laws O

PRICE OF MEATS.

A member of one of the largest
packing and refrigerating houses
in the country is reported as ex-
planning that the recent rise in the
price of meats is the result of a
determined effort on the part of
American dealers to supplant Aus
tralian beef in the British markets
with American beef. To accom-
plish this, American beef is being
sold at a loss, and at these losing
figures immense quantities are
being exported. This artifcially
created demand is, we may well
assume, ably reinforced by a viii.
lingness on the part Of the mem.
bers of the ''beef combine" to
recompense themselves for Their
patriotic" losses in England by
taxing their American customers
to the full amount the traffic will
BEAR"
Without undertaking to vouct
for the truth of this explanation.
it is however an undoubted fact
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1899-08-25
that other causes beside theOabove

that other causes beside the0above
have stimulated the advance.
There is no "beef-eater" in the
world-not even in heef-eating
Britain-who, when he can afford
it, consumes so much beef as the
American workingman. Just now
he feels that he can afford it. He
buys the best cuts and orders them
cut large. 1t is common thing
for the prudent wife of a business
man to see the butchers supplies
delivered at her own door out
classed by those destined for the
table of some workingman in the
neighborhood. The sumptlous-
ness of the peoples tables now, as
compared with their furnishings
threesyears ago, has had its share
in booming tina prices of meats.
Of course the farmer who has
been wise enough to combine q
little stock-raising with the raising
of cereals, as well as he who has
given himself exclusively to the
former branch of industry, puts
on an additional smile when he
hears how meats have ''riz." For
the big combine" doesn't get all
the profits. Its managers have to
divide with the farmer. 1t is not
only the prices of meats which
have advanced, but the prices paid
the farmer for his live stock. And
this is the usual reason given for
the rise in the prices of meats.
But the rise in the latter is appar-
emily out of all proportion to the
increased prices of live stock.
And if it is true that American
beef is sold in London cheaper
than in St. Paul, of which we have
strong doubts, that is an operation
which doesn't benefit the farmer
and will justify the inclusion of
the beef combine" in the trusts
which are destined to feel the
power of the popular wrath
