NUMEROUS phases of the Indian
 Territory land scandals continue to be aired and it has become evident that there are grave abuses in the Territory which call for immediate action. Mean
 while, the secretary of the interior, acting under the direc-
 tions of the president, is using every endeavor to secure a com
 petent commissioner, not con- nected with the department of the interior, to make a thorough in- vestigation of the situation, and
 the acting attorney general is trying to secure an examiner to investigate the employees of the department of justice, against whom similar charges have been preferred. There is now little doubt that practically all of the members of the Dawes commis- sion have interested themselves in companies organized to ma ke money out of the Indians and it is predicted that an effort will be made by the president to get rid of them. The presidents prompt action in the case of Jenkin, of Oklahoma, who was found to be interested in contract for supp
 plying provisions to the territorial insane asylum, is cited as fore-
 runner of his action in this case.

UWe Are All Liars.o

 "Peter lied," says an ex- change. "He had been with Christ every day for nearly three years, and yet when a little frisky maiden pointed her finger at him he wilted and lied-lied three
 times and to. clinch it, cussed like Roman soldier. The trouble with Peter was that he had been a fisherman by profession, and all fishermen, of course, are natural born liars. But Peter did not always lie. He quit it after his experience with fire at
 Penticost. We are all liars-un- less newspaper men be excepted. A woman meets neighbor at the door, whom she despises, and overwhelms her with expressions of delight at her coming. She is lying. She paints her face and goes upon the street, as much as to say, my face is rosy and healthy.' She is lying. She pads her form to deceive the pub lie eye. Her heart is sad and yet she puts on a counterfeit smile as much as to say, I am happy as a clam.' She is lying.
 "The merchant tells his cus- toners his wagons are the best in town. He is a liar-there are dozens of other makes just as good. The farmer stacks his wood criss cross in the bottom of his wagon bed and lays it thick and close on top. He is lying. The preacher buries an old sinner who was a servant of the devil, and says, The Lord hath given and the Lord hath taken away He is liar. The editor writes a flowery notice of a wedding, tell ing of the beauties of the hook nosed bride. He is-honestly Reader, quit lying. It is neither biblical nor Jef- fersonian. It is unconstitutiona and unladylil1e. It stamps it's brand upon your brow and the world will sooner or later find you out.

Elberta Crop Sells for S15 Tree.

Those of our friends who are in- clined to take with allowance the statement THE TRIBUNE made last week that a man of proper energy and skill could clear S10,- GOO in four years here on 20- acre Elberta peach orchard are asked for their opinion upon the following statement which we clip from that old reliable newspaper, the Atlanta Constitution, which says:
 "A few days ago Hon. E. B. Heard, of Ebert county, whence the famous 'Elberta' takes it's name, shipped car load of crat- ed peaches to Philadelphia, net ting over S1 500. Trees are yield ing six crates to the tree at S2. 50 per crate, or S15 per tree of the 135 that occupy an acre. Wher- ever the round, yellow skinned, red checked Elberta is it wins the admiration and tempts the taste of all beholders. It is giving the Georgia crop 8 popularity that exceeds any ever enjoyed by the peaches of Delaware or those of southern California. Our soils are splendidly adapted by nature to produce those beautiful iron endowed peaches with loveiness and lasting quality especially fit- ting them for long shipment. Our crop this year promises to exceed in volume and profit that of any other state in the union and the prospect ahead promises crops that in given years will net a greater gross income to the state than our staple cotton crop. And when that day comes we will be able to say Georgia is a beach, her lovely girls are | peaches, her chiefest product is the peach and her state flower on loyal lapels and carried in every patriotic corsage is tire. peach : blowI"

JUDGE WooD's friends say they regret much the necessity of the Judge having to land Gov. Davis a blew, but it is excusable for the reason that the only way to make the governor be fair is simply to beat it into him. It has been cited that what time the governor has been on the stump since the affair down at Bismark, he has acted quite decently.

JUDGE WooD's attack on Gov. Davis may have been justifiable in sense, but it is unfortunate for Judge Wood that he is not a sufficient master of his temper to keep the peace. A man who aspires to the high position of governor of a great state should have the government of himself well in hand before he under takes to govern the people.

Gov. Davis says through his private secretary Charley Jacob son that there is not one word of truth in the rumor that he may withdraw from the race in favor of McRae. Charley says the only way the people will get Davis out of the way is to defeat him.

IT is now in order for Gov. Davis to plead that he is afraid to discuss the issues with Judge Wood for fear of his personal safety.

MAYOR WRAY's WOES.
oskaloosa Executives Alliance With .
Dashinq Widow Proves Unhappy.

/ SppclaI TO Times NepupllCaI.
| Oskaloosa, March 11:-Along with
| Mayor Wray's defeat for re- nomination
comes the announcement that he has
| separated from his wife, to whom he
was married at Belle PLANE. New
! Years day. She was a Mrs. Dora A.
Burr. dashing widow from the east.
Mayor Wray published notice in the
| local papers to the effect that he would
not be responsible for her nom this
| time on
The marriage created a sensation and
the sudden separation has created a
second furora. Mrs. Burr was supposed
TO be a woman possessing great wealth
and Mayor Wray declares she deceiv-
ed him not only in money matters but
in other things as we'll.
The parties are said to have become
acquainted through correspondence, In
which the woman claimed to live in Ell
mira, n. Y. She claimed she was the
heress of her grandfather who was
said to be immensely wealthy, and that
she would possess an estate worth $500
600, besides a fine brown stone front
residence in her eastern home. 1t turns
out that the grandfather of the woman
- III very iiCt
possessing more than $4,000. And also
II has been discovered that he owned no
mortgages and had no insurance. The
Mayor says with the woman he took Il
two year-old child, which she claimed
to be her own, but which she has
since said belonged to an unfortunate
girl, and that she took it out of pity for
the woman.
Letters written to Mayor wray have
been obtained by the woman and con-
cealed. a dispute over the possession
of these letters resulted in an open rup-
ture between the couple. Her actions
mere have been the subject of much
criticism while Mayor Wray who has
lived here for 40 years, and is known
as just and upright man, is generally
pitied for his unfortunate allianca.

BIDS ALL TOO HIGH.
Board of Control Confronted With ;
Serious BUILDING Problem.

Des Moines, March 1.-THE board OF
control OF state institutions yesterday
bumped squarely into the difficulties
presented 10 builders this year by rea-
son Of the advanced prices for mater
falls and labor. Bids were opened for
Improvements at the different institu-
tons for which the legislature appro-
priated sl60.000, but they We're found
far too high. In some instances pro-
posals for the aggregate OF projected
Improvements ran nearly 100000
ahead Of the mark set by the Legislative
appropriations.
The situation is the more remarkable
as the plans and specifications for the
different improvements were all pre-
pared by State Architect Liebbe, an
architect of wide experience. Mr..
Liebbe says the bidding was wild in
some instances, as is evidenced by the
fact that there was very wide dis
crepancy in number of cases in the
proposals on the same work There
were about % bids presented. The con-
tractors generally complained of the
advance The prices for labor, which
they said were more embarrassing than
the increases in the prices for mater
ials.
The board OF control Will not by any
means give up the making of the pro-
posed improvements. The bids OBJ
tanned yesterday We're on nearly all OF
the buildings for which the appropria
lions We're made by the last general
assembly, and which were not erected
last season. The following We're the

New industrial building and new
school house at Eldnra, store build

ing station and smoke stack at Dav-
EXPORT, fire proof laundry building

cottage and pumphouse at Mitchell
vile, two cottages, fire station and a
COW barn at Glenwood. Des Moines,
ST Paul, Marshalltown, Sioux Falls,
and Council Bluffs contractors We're il:
the competition.
Chairman Cownie said yesterday
there would be some notifications in
the plans and an effort TO bring the
proposals inside the appropriation limit.
State Architect Liebbe is preparing
plans for the proposed new prison
hospital for the penitentiary at Fort
Madison. The appropriation for this
is $4,000. Bids on this will be OBJ
tanned in about a month. The hospital
will be modern one in all respects.
