VIII Investigate Here.

Word has been sent out from Wash
ington for the land inspector, now
workins in Oregon, to come to idaho
and investigate the land proofs that
have been made in Idaho during the
last few years. Every section of the
state will be visited, and every entry
and proof made in recent years will be
looked up.
AS a result of the investigations in
Oregon several land Office officials have
been fired, aud many parties are on the
road to the penitentiary, for fraud in
obtaining proofs.
We opine that the inspectors will
have plenty of shady transactions to
look into in this section of the state.
and some interesting disclosures will be
the result. Uncle Sam means business
this time and those whose conscience is
not thoroughly clear had better look
out for something to drap

ALL IN LINE
Alaskan Papers Are for Territorial Government,

The impediment in Ma Frames yer acity seems to be getting no better very fast. There Is now no journal, eS- cept itself. the little advertising sheet at Skagway and the journalistic mis- print at Sitka, that are opposing terri torial organization for Alaska, and the number of their adherents can be tal- lied on the edge of a cedar shinglo half a foot long. They may not realize the fact that, In their lame and impotent fight against popular rights for Alaska they have achieved no higher distine- tion than to make themselves laughing stock for their own readers, but such Is the case, nevertheless.

 "a formidable trio, indeed. There Is not a single publication in all Alaska with modicum of brains in its editor ial makeup, which is not an advocate Of local self-goyernment. The Nome pa- pers are not opposed to te' r!torlal or ganizatiou, and the Ie at Valdez which made a lame attempt at opposi- tiou while edited by the genius who a few years ago denied the rights of Alas kans to assemble in convention except at the call of the district igurehead, has been for some weeks silent on the subject.

HEARING CONTINUED.
Wrangle Over Receiver for the Uni
 versaI Tobacco Company.

New York, September S.-The hearing in the Universal Tobacco company case was continued before Vice Chancellor Pit ney in Jersey City today. The hearing was on motion to show cause why receiver should not be appointed for the company and why preferred bond issue of s1, ,000, 900 should not be restrained. The application for the receiver is made by Edwin A. McAlpin and other stockholders of the company.
 Julian Davies spoke for the petitioners and former Judge Gilbert Collins also ar gued in support of the motion. Attorney General Robert McCarter opposed the motion.
 Vice Chancellor Pitney said that it had all along been alleged that the complain ants were allied with the tobacco trust. but proof of this had not been given. There was only the mere allegation that they were acting for the tobacco trust. The vice chancellor said that General Me Alpin was justified as man and gen. tleman in selling his stock
 T think" he added, you are hard pressed to make such an argument"
 Vice Chancellor Pitney decided that the complainants must be allowed to investi- gate the books and accounts of the Uni versal Tobacco company and said he would make an order to that effect
