Returns to the Fold.

The Pioneer-Times of the 18th con.
tains the following letter from John L.
Schofeld, under date of May 9th, to a
friend in Deadwood Mr.. Schofield is
now superintendent Of a mine in New
Mexico, and will be remembered by our
local readers as former resident OF
Custer, and at one time one of the most
radical populists, and leader in that
party in Custer county.
DEAR SiR:--I ask you as q personal
favor to place my name on the men,
bership foil of the Deadwood republi-
can club. Though / am at present In
this far-off territory. my home is still in
Dsadwood and it is possible that may
be back there in time to cast my vote
for the straight republican ticket. 1
take as much interest as tistial in pol
itics but view the situation from a diff
feront point, for, as you see by this re-
quest. I have returned to the republican
fold, my patriotic feelings having re-
yolted at further political association
with that aggregation of antis and hy-
phenated Americans calling themselves
democrats. / am an American first,
and party man afterwards, and such
being the case there is no political home
for ne outside of the true party of pro-
gress, the party whose intense Ameri-
canism is never for moment in doubt.
Whether or no I shall be welcomed
back as was the prodigal son we read OF
remains for you to say.
Yours truly,
JOHN L. ScHoFIELD

In connection with the free homes
bill, the question has arisen, says a
Washington special, what will be done
with the settlers on public lands who
have proved up, but for some reason
have failed to perfect title, as it was
thought that the free homes bill would
do injustice to lot Of people who had
in good faith settled for their lands or
had been put in arrears through circum-
stances beyond their control. This
proposition has been met by some clever
maneuyering in connection with bill
which provides that all persons of this
charsctei may take up an additional l6o
acres. Such bill was reported from a
committee of public lands in the house
through efforts of Representative Burke,
of South Dakota, and Representative

her return. wake him up and curse
him for not having the dishes washed.
Once he came home suffering from
cold and after taking some hot drinks
went to bed to sweat 1t out. He woke
up during the night and found that
his wife had opened the windows,
When he upbraided her she said she
wanted him to take more cold. She
also threatened to poison him and on
more than one occasion expressed 4
desire to ''cut his heart out
