Decision on Script.

The commissioner of the government
land Office. in decision rendered May
IS, lays down the principle that occu-
pied land 10 not subject to forest lien
land script location, and that in such
cases the question as to whether the
land involved is of mineral or nom
mineral character is not material.
As an affidavit asserting that the lard
desired is unoccupied is one of the pre-.
requisites to forest script location, the
above principle is not new condition
imposed, but simply makes 1t more def
mite. Any land already occupied. it
matters not what the occupation ofthose
residing upon it may be, is not subject
to forest scrip location. The mineral
or non-mineral character Of the land in.
yolyed is immaterial, because, If it iu
occupied that fact invalidates the forest
reserve script location.
As a great many oil script locations
have actually been made when there
wore wells upon tha lands located, this
decision will be Of consi jeribl import.

Must Remove Fences.

According to reports from Washington.
Commissioners Herman Of the general
land Office has rejected the request Of
Representative Burke, asking the re-
vocation of the order made directing
forestry officers to remove fences
which have been erected upon the pub
lie domain by sheep and cattle owners.
Mr.. Burke complained that the order 10
unnecessarily harsh and works hard
ship to stockmen who cannot secure
pasturage for cattle. While admitting
that the order is in compliance with
law, the representative believes that 1t
could be modified without injury.
While declining to modify the order,
the commissioner has submitted the
question to Secretary Hitchcock. The
commissioner holds that the course pur.
sued in South Dakota is the same that
has been found necessary in other sec
tions In order to check the evil which
has existed of stockmen fencing thous-
ands of acres Of pasture lands and ex-
cluding the stock of settlers who live In
the immediate vicinity. Similar orders
by the commissioner have been sustain
eel by the secretary Of the interior, and
the impression at the department is that
the present order relating to fences in
South Dakota will also be permitted to
stand,

w. G. Porter, assistant United States
attorney for South Dakota, has filed a
suit in the federal court here against
Odo Reder, q prominent Black Hills
man, and the Black Hills Lumber Com
pany, of which he is the president, for
the recovery of S336643. the amount
claimed 10 be due the government for
timber unlawfully cut by Reder and his
company from public lands ofthe United
States. The timber was cut at point
about seven and one half miles north
west of Custer during the months of De-
cember, 1897, and January and February,
1893. Early in 1898 Reder was arrested
and United States grand jury indicted
him for cutting the timber on a mineral
location lie however, was able to
prove that the timber was not cut on
mineral location. but on public lands,
and, owing to this technicality, the case
against him was dismissed ir July,
1898. 1t has now been brought on the
allegation that the timber was cut from
public lands belonging to the United
States.-Sioux Falls Argus. Leader.

Referred hmm to the Pres,dsnt.

Mention has been made in these COL
umns of an attempt being made by the
friends OF Odo Reder to procure pardon
for him. Petitions were circulated for
signatures and sent to Judge Garland,
many personal letters were written and
an earnest effort made to that end.
Judge Garland refuses to grant the
pardon, as he says the power to do so is
vested in the president of the United
States. There is no doubt but that Mr..
Reder's friends will now take the matter
to the higher tribunal. Mr.. Reder's
health is giving away under the strain,
and those who know him best declare he
cannot live the year out If he has to

Il. p, Grand todss.

The 18th annual convention Of the
Knights of Pythias held in Lead last
week was one of the most harmonious
sessions ever held in the state. ALI the
delegates were in excellent humor
throughout the session, and not dis.
pute arose on any question.
An important amendment to the con-
stitution was adopted. which affects all
the subordinate lodges in the state. It
was the changing Of the term OF office OF
all officers in the subordinate lodges from
six months to one year. A few OF the
officers heretofore have been elected
annually, but the more important ONES
were elected every six months. The
change of tenure to year Was made on
the theory that 1t took an officer nearly
six months to become familiar with the
ritual, and 10 make change as soon as
the officer was really valuable one was
conceded to be poor policy. The new
amendment does not 60 into effect until
after tile first Of next JANUARY. The
list Of officers elected is as follows
Supreme representative, U. 8. g. Cherry,
Sioux Falls; grand chancellor, DR.. ii.
c. Burch. Redfield; grand vice chan.
cellor, g. L. Warner, Fsulkton} grand
keeper Of records and seal, j. Carl

grand master Of the exchequer, C. H.
CassilI. Hudson; grand inner guard
Mr.. Adamson, Yankton; grand outer
guard, John Barry. Central City; grand
trustee, C. G. Bras, Mitchell.
Canton was chosen as the place for
holding the next meeting OF the grand
lodge. During their stay in Lead the
visitors were royalty entertained by the
local lodge, Pythian Stutefs and citizens.

 The address was followed by Il selec- tion from Rubenstein, "Voices of the Woods" sung by the Normal Glee Club,
 In Il short address full of feeling and kindly words, President A. N. Taylor presented the diplomas to the graduat' ing class. The graduates were as fol lows: Miss Alice Campbell of Prescott, Miss Maude A. Williams of Los Angeles, Miss Clara NJ. Kendrick and Miss Margaret H. Wallace of Flagstaff.
 It is highly complimentary to rhe school to note that each of the gradu- ates have been selected to teach in some one of the public schools of the territory, and it also speaks wei! of the ability and character of the graduates.
 The reception of the graduating class was held on Friday night. There were between three and four hundred in- vited guests present, who were received by the board of trustees, the faculty and the class in the parlors of the Normal.
 After the formal reception the guests gathered in the study hall, where they were entertained by an address by President Taylor. Miss Logic sang and NJ iss Babcock recited "rhe Second Trial," an appropriate commencement piece. This part closed with a song by Mrs. D. J. Brannen. Light refresh menls were served in the recitation rooms.
 The various rooms of the imposing building were handsomely decorated in the colors of the school, gold aud white, the rooms were brilliantly lighted and numerous Japenese lanterns decorated the wide entrances.

 The success of the school has been cOntribu, ed 10 in large sense by the assistants, who have ably aided Prof. Fay Tor in his work.
 Miss Frances Bury, who has been with the school since its opening, has been retained by the board for the en- suing year.
 Miss Cornelia Hartwell, who came to the institution last year, is we'll known educator in the East, and she has been relained by the board for the ensuing year.
 Miss Maud Babcock, the supervisor of the training school during the past year, owing to i'll health sewers her con nectiOn with the school. She is most excellent instructor in her department, and the faculty and patrons of the school regret her departure. Miss Lulu Hunter of the Flagstaff school will be her successor.
