you deem it necessary to be pres

investigate the case, you will do
so, and thereafter submit your
report Of the result Of your in

careful y examine the proof. and
if they believe the claim to be in
good faith and in compliance
with law to allow entry thereon
upon payment of proper fees and
charges. In any case where you
have reason to believe that the
claim is not made in good faith,
and Tor any cause you are unable
to be present at the taking of
final proof you will ask the local
officers to suspend such proof
upon it's receipt in their office

already done SO, make careful
of the conditions
existing in your district. especial
ly with respect to the officers
therein, other than the local Off
GERS, before whom final proofs
may be taken under the law, for
the purpose OF enabling you to
determine the capacity and relia-
bility Of such officers. You will
impress upon such officers the
absolute necessity on their part
Of a rigid and searching inquiry
into the good faith OF every
claimant to public lands, and the
necessity of requiring the regular
proof and cross examination
proofs in timber and stone cases
to be carefully and faithfully |
filed out. You will also report
to the local officers the name of |
any such officer who has failed |
to faithfullye execute the law gov

any misconduct Herewith, in
order that appropriate action
may be taken thereon.

proceed upon thelines heretofore
followed in such cases, as there

The former apporticnment gave
what is known as the sold south
including the border state of Ken
lucky aud Maryland, but exclud
ing West Virginia, total OF
$50 votes, or "a short of ma.
jority. The same states now have
159 votes, or 80 short of a majority.
Connecticut, New Jersey and
New York, that formerly had SO
votes, now have SO. Delaware and
Indiana remain rs before, with 3
and 10 votes respectively.
1t is TINS seen that the new APP
portionment has a particular signiA-
canoe, so far as the comparative
standing of the two political par
ties is concerned, inasmuch as the
power OF the solid south is dimin-
ished.
The presidential election Of this
year will be first held under the
new apportionment. Every ten
years the number of congressman
allotted to each state is changed 10
conformity to the census. AS a
states representation in the cleo
toral college equals the number of
its senator's and congressman, this
new appOrtiOnment necessitates
change in the number Of electors.
The REIMBURSEMENT was made too
late to effect the election Of 1900,
so that the coming election is the
first under the new regime. The
last three presidential contests
1892, 1896 and 19OO-were held
under the apportionment of 1890.

vice given by Judge l.. O. Hacker to
join the educational crusade. which is
now sweeping the State. Many peo-
pie have said that Delcambre should
continue the good work already begun.
and do their utmost in having three or
four, such educational rallies during

can only speak of it, the greatest show
on earth, in words of praise and he
agrees that it constitutes very exten-
