wants are insistent as even There
is; then, no natural or legitimate
cause for business reaction.
One cause is urged, however;
"This is presidential year, and
business is always dull this year."
But this year should be an excep-
ton to the rule-if it is a rule-for
political conaitions this year are
exceptional. The country is not
even remotely threatened with any
change in governmental policy,
fiscal or otherwise. The bogy of
"free trade" or tariff for revenue
only" cannot scare the most timid
child, let alone frightening cap
ital," that still more timid! thing.
Monopolistic and other capitalistic
combinations are not to be inter-
fered with for nearly five years
more, except in a manner that, "will
not disturb business" or "interrupt
the current of our prosperity" 80
there is nothing to the present
campaign to make times hard. But
there must be cause for the pres
ent harder times. What is it?
That's easy: Too much and too
rapid absorption of wealth by those
who produce no wealth from those
who do produce all wealth!-Farm,

the surveyor general approved the
notes of Cooks corrected survey,
and the land was opened to entry
Jan. IA, 1902, when Hyde & Co. asked
to have their applications adjusted
to the line of survey, which was
done. +
In July, 1902, counsel for Hyde
and company filed a protest against
the states claim. Action was sus-
pended by the general land office
pursuant to departmental instruc-
tons of January II, 1902, pending
consideration of protest by the
state of Minnesota against any pro-
ceedings for determination of the
character of lands claimed by the
state to be swamp, otherwise than
by the examination of field notes of
survey.
March 16, 1903, the department sus-
tanned the protest of the state, ex-
cept as to contests pending between
the state and actual bona fde home
stead or pre- emption settlers, and
directed all other controversies
not therefore carried to a hearing
and decision to be determined by
the field notes alone.
On June "a, 1903, under this swamp
land ruling, the attorney general
decided the land in question to be
swamp, which would give it into
possession of the state. W. B.
Douglas, attorney general, repres-
ented the state. c. S. Wilson, of Du-
luth, was attorney for Mabel Evans
and the Hyde company was repres-
ented by J. J. skuse.
The land in question comprises
only about thirty-six acres, but as
the ore on it is worth several, hun
dred thousand dollars, both sides
put up the stiffest kind of fight,
which was carried to the highest
authority, the secretary of the in
terror. The general land Office Of
fcials sustained the attorney gen
Feral's decision, and the secretary of
the interior sustained the land Of
fee, finally deciding the matter be-
y0nd repeal.

STATE WINS VALUABLE LAND.
Ore Strip Contest Decided favorabl>
by Secretary of the interior.

After being appealed to the secre-
tary of the interior, the famous
swa mp land case of r. A. Hyde &
Co. against the state of Minnesota,
and Mabel Evans, intervenor, has
just been decided in favor of the
state, affirming prior land Office
decisions and giving into the con-
troll of the state ore land with a
valuation variously estimated at
from $4,000 to 100000. While
Hyde & Co. we're named as plain
tiffs, the real parties in interests
we're Pearl H. Smith and p. E. Brad
shaw. of Superior. A copy of the
decision was today received by c. S.
Wilson, attorney in the case for the
state and Mabel Evans.
F. "A. Hyde & Co. claimed the land
under an~application, Sept. %, 1900
before survey, to select it under act
of June 4, 1897, in lieu of land relin-
quished to the United States in a
forest reserve. Mabel Evans inter-
vened for protection OF her rights
claimed as lessee under the state.
The land is lot l, section 6, township
5s12.17.
Township 5812 north, range II
west, is wedge-shaped body of
land lying between the north line
of township So and the south line
of township SO, which lines were
run respectively in 1882 and 1879.
1t was surveyed by N. S. Cook,
deputy surveyor, in June, 1884, upon
the petition of. Peal H. Smith, who
claimed to be a homestead settler.

district of the state. The article is

ance of the section since our first
