THE heinous crime committed at
Racine has aroused popular feeling in
this locality to a dangerous pitch.
There is a great deal of talk about the
insuficiency of life imprisonment as a
punishment for such desperate deeds
as that of which the Racine minister
and his wife were the victims. Many
have recalled a certain 1ynching that
took place in this city in the year 1880
and hints to the effect that it might be
repeated with sufficient provocation
are not infrequent. The crime at Ra-
cine is not alone responsible for this
state of public sentiment. 1t has
grown from a spark into a flame,
famed, at first, by the frequency of
petty crimes, and then by the rapid re-
currence of those of greater atrocity
until the climax was reached in the at
tempted murder of Mr.. and Mrs.
Cheney While it is not likely that
the popular rage would in the end get
the better of the popular wisdom and
substitute mob law for justice properly
achieved, the present state of excite
ment may eventually be instrumental
in working out solution of the prob
lem that the recent depredations have
brought so strongly to the public
mind,

The Wa Keeney Land Ofict
have received answer to their notict
of the attempt to file on the Fe
Hays Abandoned Reservation q:
follows ''No entries will be re
ceived or entered on the Reserva-
tion land until after the approval oI

This will be several months vet

must be given Of the day of open

The RIGHTEOUSNESS of the pro
posed settlement of the Reservation
last week is dawning On oar peo-
pie. First to that class who would
never move there and live the re-
quired FIVE years; Cyrus Monroe,
Ed Madden, Dixon, Locky Scott,
Joe Schaffer. They couldn't be
hired to live five years out there.
Then think of Doc Jones. Attorney
Cox and HInkel and half of Wa
Keeney moving from there and
settling on farms for five years. 1t
Is simply laughable. Speculation,
not much, as the land will be ap-
praised from Sl6O0-to 240O quart
er and they mast pay one-fifth
down when their papers 60 on, and
when they sell and release that is
lost, made by the Government.
and the new man commences at the
appraisment again.
Then there is that other crowd
that didn't realize that every quart
er section will he appraised at 10
to $15 an acre. 1900 to S2400 &
must live on it five years. paying
one-ffth, 800 to $500 down the
day they get their papers. How
many of you who signed want a
homestead for five years and pay
that, and none of it will be aprrais
ed at less than $40 an ac1e, the land
of Fit. Wallace. 125 miles west was
appraised at 81 an acre. It IS no
speculation. 1t is no bargain. No
snap.
And the Government is right in
selling that way. Men took home
steads 10 to 90 miles from the R
R.. and had the prlvations and
work. Now you can have close to
town but you pay a fair value for
the surrounding improvements and
