BOYD COUNTY LAND CASE
Matter to Be Presented to Secretary
Hitohosok Next Week.
HARDWARE MEN ARE NOW IN CONFERENCE
Many People from the West Are At
tending an Important Business
Conference at the Ma

CFrom a staff Correspondent }


WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-(Special Tele-
gram.)-The BoyG county land cases which
have been pending for years in the courts
and before the secretary Of the interior,
are to be heard finally by Secretary Hitch
cock next week. These cases have been
brought by the state of Nebraska against
squatters on lands included within the old
Fort Randall military reservation and Big
Sioux reservation, to dlspossess squatters
on these lands, so that they may be taken
over by the state for school purposes.
Years ago the government ceded to the
state Of Nebraska some 6,2O0 acres OF land
in Boyd county for school purposes, but
through legislative acts and inability Of
state officers to control the same, the lands
in question, probably worth $6j0,0O0 have
been occupied by squatters. Suits have
been brought to eject them from their
holdings and the cases have now reached
the secretary OF the interior on appeal
from a decision of the general land office
which has held that the lands in question
properly belong to the school fund OF Ne
braska
Captain +. F. Murhn of Lincoln, special
attorney of the attorney generals office
is in Washington to present to Secretary
Hitchcock reasons why the decision of the
general land Office should he affirmed. In
the event Secretary Hitchcock affirms the
decision of the general land office. suits In
ejectment. now pending in the supreme
court OF Nebraska, will be pushed to an
affirmance and the case taken UP to cir
cult court in order that the United States
marshal may have jurisdiction looking to
the removal of squatters from the property

SHOULD LEARN A LESSON FROM
THE BLUNDER.

The Savannah Morning News says
that at the next election in Colorado
Alva Adams will be elected Governor
by an overwhelming majority and the
theft of the Governorship will be re-
buked. Perhaps. But the Colorado
Democrats may be as unwise next
time as the Democrats in the Repub-
lie were unwise in 1880. There was
but one wise and logical thing to do
in 1880. and that was to nominate
Tflden and Hendricks and demand
that the fraud of 1876 be avenged
But the counsels of the timid prevail
ed and the Democracy lost its only is
sue for that campaign. The Colorado
Democrats should learn lesson
from that blunder.
