on admission for various public pur-
poses. Save with the last few states
which have been admitted, it has been
the uniform practice to grant to the
newer states On admission all of the
swamp and overlooked lands within
their borders. There is q strict anal
egy between such q grant and the pres
ent purpose to devote the remaining
public land to the Improvement OF that
which is not now susceptible of re-
clamation and cultivation except at
heavy expense.
A like analogy is in the large grants
made for the purpose of securing the
building of the first transcontinental
railroads. Such grants were defended,
and properly, on the theory that the
public interests required the settle
ment and cultivation of the vast in
terror; and that the building Of trans
portation lines would facilitate that
settlement and cultivation-a predic-
ton abundantly justified by the facts.
The principle was right, the manner
of administration alone was in fault,
and this is corrected in the pending
measure. The lands themselves
should never have been granted to the
corporations. The proceeds Of the
sale of such lands might properly have
been devoted to the procuring of this
great public work, at the time when it
was done. rE
In the states to which the proposed
law will apply, there is now, outside
Of the. limits Of the forest and other
reservations, but little public land
which is suitable for cultivation with
out irrigation. Portions of it are
available for grazing, butt not for
growing farm crops. From the sales
OF other public lands the government
has been amply remunerated for ev-
erything which their acquisition cost
the country. Indeed, is has been paid
many times over. Now, instead of
granting the arid lands to the several
states, as was done in the case of the
swamp lands, It is proposed merely to
devote the proceeds of their sale to the
reclamation of other and like lands.
The states which have large areas of
arid lands, with few exceptions, were
not recipients of swamp land grants.
Thus the principle of devoting the
proceeds of the sales of public lands
in the arid land states for irrigation
purposes is ab%undantly justified. The
western states are seeking nothing
more than has been substantially and
O directly granted to other states,
and, indeed, to private corporations,
and in a more Objectionable form. It
is not a bounty which they ask, but
simple Justice and the following Of es-
tablished ~precedents.
The other provisions of the bill have
commanded the unanimous approval
OF all the senators and representatives
OF the states interested, as afording
the most practicable method Of work.
Ing out a comprehensive scheme of ir-
rigation which can be devised. The
S1nnumerable details, involving many
problems not yet worked out, should
properly be left to the discretion of the
executive, unhampered by an attempt
on the part of congress to define too
closely the scope and character of the
work. .

DISAPPOINTMENT.
Wheat Crop Not As Good As
Was Expected.
Yield Is Comparatively Small and
Grade Is lnferior-A Low
Average.

The wheat crop in Blue EARTH
county, and particularly the timber
districts, is proving to be a disap.
,, pointment As far as threshed, it has
not come up to expectations. The
yield is small and the grain poor.
The Hubbard Milling company ad.
mits that the crop is not up to pre-
vious years, and their weigher. W. 8.
Howe, states that the crop is the poor
est for number of years. o. Little,
who represents W. W. Cargill & Co.,
also says that the crop is not what
was expected. =.
The reason given for the falling off
in the crop is the fact that the grain
is badly lodged. Where it stands up
we'll, the yield and quality are much
better. The prairie districts are yet to
be heard from, and are expected to
raise the average of the county. e..
Fred Young of Decoria has marketed
some new wheat at the Cargill eleya-
tor. It went fifteen bushels to the
acre and graded No. O. This is the
best yield yet reported, with one ex-
ception.
Mr.. Little was out into Msnkato
township Monday, and found the
wheat running from eight to ten
bushels an acre and mostly grading
No. 8. The grain was lodged and the
berry crinkled, which accounts for
the falling off in yield.
At the big mill, the wheat thus far
taken in is Nos. and 3 and rejected.
No No. wheat has yet been re-
ceived Geo. Kieffe has marketed
some new wheat at the mill, grading
No. 3, and yielding eight to ten
bushels an acre.
Fred Kieffe's wheat grades No. 3,
and he does not yet know what the
yield will be.
Jacob Sontsg has secured eight to
ten bushels per acre, grading No. 8,
and has another field where the yield
is expected to be nearly twenty
bushels and the grade No. 2. |
John Duffy has just commenced to
;hresh and has variety of yields.
Geo. Schulte's experience promises
20 be common this year. Hes has
jhreshed $50 bushels of wheat from |
ground that last year yielded over
1000 bushels The grade this year is
lot as good as last,

MUSIC AND DRAMA.

For an opening night the record al
the Mankato Theatre was broken last
night when the weeks engagement of
the North Bros. comedians was com
menced. People were turned away,
unable to secure standing room. The
play, the acting and the specialties
certainly merited the large attendance
and the hearty reception accorded the
company. The Free Press has never
been in the habit of lavishing its
praise upon inferior players, and to
speak well of the North Bros. means
that the praise is due them.
The late lamented Frederic Bryton
made famous the pretty play "Jack
O. Diamond. He was an actor of
more than ordinary ability and in the
character of Jack Diamond he was par
'excellant. He has worthy successor
in the person of Mr.. Harry Chaplin,
who is 80 we'll fitted for the part that
comparisons between Mr. Brtyon
oAo AlIubO11 WOuku 10 OUiOu6. ThIs
Chaplin handles the role in an easy,
graceful manner. He does not overdo
the part, something that cannot be
said of others in whose keeping the
character has been placed.
G. G. Chaplin won the audience as
the bluff and warm-hearted old gam
bier, "Denver Dan" and the character
was not over-drawn. The balance Of
the cast was we'll made up and each
player was conscientious in his WORK.
The specislties were of the best.
Baby Patti was easily favorite. The
comedy sketch, the Coltons, were
highly appreciated and the Munros
made hit. The buck and wing dance
by Mike Siebert was good.
Tonight the bill will be 1.-THE Prin-
cess. - The company Is deserving of a
liberal patronage for the reason that
the plays are we'll presented and the
audience receives the werth of its
money.

GIVE THEIR NAMES.
Bunch of Prisoners at Waseca Looked
Over By Pinkerton's Men.

Every clue to the identity of the
prisoners at Waseca has been traced
down excepting that connecting them
withsthe Burlington hold-up, and De-
tectiye G. A. Bond, of the St Paul
Pinkerton force. is in that city trac-
ing. down that theory. He arrived
Monday night, accompanied by J.
Garrow, of Savanna, ILL.,, the fisher
man who, it is claimed, saw the gang
which held up the train. The detec-
tive states that Garrow announces
that two of the men he had not seen
before, and as to the other one he is
not positive The detective has given
out tonight that these are not the
men. However, he was here Monday
and all day yesterday and will remain
today working on the case, and it is
thought that he knows more of the
matter than he is willing to divulge.
The prisoners remain reticent and
will not talk. They have, however,
given their names as John Price,
Mike Tobin and Joseph Mcdonald,
which are probably fictitious. Price
is the man who did the shooting.
The authorities here, while convinced
of the more than ordinary desperate
character of the men by reason of
their action at the time of the arrest
and since then, in the absence of other
evidence will arraign the men tomor-
row. Price on the charge Of assault
with a dangerous weapon upon the
sheriff and the other two on the
charge of carrying concealed weapons.
In the meantime, If no new evidence
is secured, the two latter will be re-
leased at the expiration of their SEN
fences. The jewelry and booty in the
hands of the sheriff bear no MARKS of
Identification which offer clues.

Robber Is Discovered.
Formerly Resided at MapIeton and
Bought Footgear There---Detec.

Identity to the dead Burlington trair
robber has been discovered at Maple
ton. 1t was brought about by the
shoes the dead man wore His name

PARTIES ALL FINED.
The Trouble Among the Syrians Comes
to an End.

Peace once more reigns supreme
among the members of the Syrian
colony. A priest of the race arrived
in the city last Monday and spent the
night with the two warning factions,
exhorting them to live together as
brothers and to lay aside their differ
ences. The good fathers words made
an impression on his hearers, and it
was agreed to live, amicably hereafter.
Charley Abood, Calhil Abood and
Henry Joseph were ARRESTED Monday
afternoon on the warrants sworn out
by Naiff Aida, and it was necessary
to go through with these prosecutions,
regardless of any agreement between
the parties.
Charley Abood, who Monday af-
ternoon pleaded not guilty in the
peace bond proceeding, changed his
plea last Tuesday to guilty, and was
required to put up.a good and suff-
cient bond of $500 that he would not
fracture the peace or Abda's head
Charley and CahI Abood and Henry
Joseph this afternoon pleaded guilty to
disorderly conduct, and the court
thought that s.. 20 each would be
about right. The complaining witness
went out to help raise the money,
which in due time was paid over and
the defendants discharged. The giving
of the peace bond was not so easy a
matter, however. as it was necessary
for two freeholders to sign it.
The parties were all released on
bonds after their arrest yesterday af
ternoon. Walter Plymat appeared as
their attorney today and made plea
for leniency. -s.
Charley Abood found it impossible
to procure peace bond, and it was
decided to withdraw this charge and |
to substitute one of disorderIy con-
duct in case he would agree to leave !
the city, which he promised to do. |
He was fined $50 and costs, and a |
skirmish line was out late this after |
noon, trying to round up the money.

NO BAND CONTEST.

So far as Mankato is concerned there
will be no band concert at Hand s
park on the oath. The two bands at
Mankato recently merged and elected
Professor Jache leader. He says he
has not the time to devote to the
matter, besides it is well known he is
too good musician to go into con-
test with practically new band on
two weeks practice. The old members
and best players will not come unless
Professor Jache leads, hence they are
out of the contest. 1t is said that
Algona will not meet Fairmont again
so the prospects of a contest seem to
have gone glimmering. -Fairmont
