settled among the tall frs of
Lincoln County, Homesteaders
have relinquished their holdings
and left the country, realizing
that life is too short and uncer-
tain to wait for the lifting of the
ban and the issuance of title.
AS the land involved is of the
same status as if it still belonged
to the government, the county
can levy no taxes on lands inside
the reservation. Although the
timber is the most valuable and
the most extensive of any tract
in the county, it is worthless for
the use of anyone. None can
claim it and the county suffers
sorely.
The improved lands in the
district belong to Indians of the
Siletz tribe. While these abor-
igines have some of the prerog-
atives of the white man, the
lands are exempt from taxation
by provision of the Govern
ment. The land belonging to
heirs of diseased Indians, how
ever, is sold to the highest bidder,
and is gradually coming into the
hands OF white men, against
whom taxes are levied.
Meanwhile the county exche-
quer is hard put for running ex-
penses. With a population of
between 4, 500 and 5000, about
300 of whom are Indians, Lin
coin county has a debt Of about
l$o for every white man. woman
and child, or total of $4o,o 900.
The district is in a Rip Van
Winkle sleep and mnst await the
lifting of the Governments edict
from the Siletz timber and the
coming of the honest entryman
who will have the heart and the
money literally to hew out fol
himself a home in the jungle
forest and be brave enough to
/ battle with wild beasts and wres
r from the wilderness a permanent
r abiding place. When that time
comes, the spell will be lifted
: titles to the lands will issue, tn,
timber will come into the marke
and the whistle of the sawnil
and the shouts of the lumbe
! lack will bring to the section
; great wealth and prosperity.

Hobo Finds Friend,

A Kalamazoo woman, Mrs. Almira
Kramer, recently deceased, who left a
fortune of s105,0O0, devised $4,000 in
her will, the income of which is to be
used to feed tramps. Let the Weary
Willies of the country turn their foot
steps toward Kalamazoo. 1t is far
enough away from Hartford, says the
Times, of that city, to enable us to ex-
press the wish that they will all make
the Michigan city their headquarters
in winter, as well as summer If the
citizens will kindly furnish them with
lodgings, the income of Mrs. Kramer's
$4,000 will afford liberal supply of
meat and potatoes, and the great army
of hobos will have permanent ma
tional headquarters at last.

In Memory of Clyde Tharp.

In response to a request by in
terested friends we are publish
ing the following lines:
One dear form lay on slab,
One form so still and white,
Clyde, the wife and child's comfort,
Had gone to home of height.
o, Clyde, my husband, the wife cried;
How can give you up like this!
And then with wall of pain, she pressed
Upon his brow kiss.
In silence they stood beside her,
To comfort, soothe and calm,
The heart SO cruelty bleeding,
Because the husband was from it torn.
Don't weep for Dearest Clyde, new;
D. MT wish him back again;
For he is only waiting on the other side,
A star for your golden crown!
And when you think of that lined grave
That holds one form so dear,
Remember father and mother, that youl
Clyde
Is with our Blessed Savior;
And try to think that bye and bye
When you are done with earth anc
care
That you, too, will 60 home with hin
to rest,
In mansion bright and fair.
| And remember that circling around 70,
| now,
Are myriads of angel forms
And that Clyde, dear Clyde, is will
the band,
That shields you from all harm.
Then be earnest in His service now,
And let your soul be flied with praye
| For a few more days will show to your
Your work God holds in store.

Hurts Lincoln.

Poor Old Lincoln county, is
hardly getting the treatment she
deserves at the hand of Fate.
From the following article which
appeared in the Telegram it
would seem in certain circles the
idea prevails that Lincoln IS to
be retarded as a result of the land
frauds being brought to light
over there-we hope not:
While the suspicion of fraud in
her timber lands hangs over
Lincoln County, her most sp1en-
did resource is crippled. The
Siletz reserve forms nearly half
of the total area of the county.
Owing to peculiar conditions,
such as a dense forest growth on
most of the land, and rough
country, with the most primitive
transportation conditions, poor
roads and very heavy rainfall,
entrymen say they have found it
impossible. to comply with the
homestead act. The. declaration
is also made that since the In
terror department prevents ac-
quirment of timber land except
bv homestead entry, fraud has
ntturally followed. So motor
lsus, in fact, was the work of the
LOCUS homesteader in the Indian
lands that in November 1903,
the Department made ruling
suspending ever entry in the
district pending a full investiga-
ton. From that time on every
claimant has been ''held up;"
his money was held pending the
result Of a rigid inquiry and the
land claimed by him was even
more elusive than before entry
was made.
Since this summary order the
bitterness of hope deferred has

SEABORD COMING TO MARIETTA,

We are reliably informed that
the Seabord Airline Railway has
definitely decided to bufld a spur
line from Floyds, in this county
and situated on its main liue, to
Marietta, and that work thereon
will begin in the near future.
This will give Marietta a new
route to Atlanta, almost if not
quite as short as that by the w.
& A., as we'll with route to the
west, via Birmingham with lower
freight rates for our manufacture
ers.
The Louisville and Nashville
railway has just authorized the
issuance of $4,000. 900 of bonds
for the purpose of building "a
continuous line of railway from
Cincinnati to Atlanta. . This
shows that the L. & N. does not
intend to use the W. & A. from
CartersvIlle to Atlanta for it's new
line but will enter the latter city
on It's own line passing through
Marietta, probably through the
Glover tan yard property near
Buffers Marble Works and the
Glover Machine Works. If it is
contrary to the lease act of the
W. & A. railway for the lessees
to "sublet' that road, cor any
part thereof to any other railway
or corporation" if the Nashville
Chattanooga & St. Louis railway
should permit the l.. & N. to use
the tracks of the w. & A. the
former road would subject itself
to a forfeiture of the w. & A.
lease. Our town authorities should
remember this if the L. & N.
(Which is not the same in law as
the N. G. q st, L. attempt to
run trains over the W. & A. from
Gainesville to Atlanta.
AS we stated IN former article
we think the A K. & n. will run
parallel to the w. & A to Buffers
where it will parallel the new L.
& n. to Atlarta. I

One of the worst things about
the average American is that he
Will sell anything he owns if he
can only get his price. The dis
position on his part tends to make
him always unsettled. When a
man has a good farm, a good
home, good neighbors and a good
income, where can he possibly go
TO better his condition? In fact,
where could he go where he would
not be worse off? Lots of men
find this truth out at an expense
of lot of money and peace OF
mind. The sensible thing fol
men to do i'll nine cases out of ten
is to settle down contented, so fal
as ever expecting to find a home
where everything is all right, anc
carefully study how they may
make the old farm more produc

and their lives of more use to thei
families and to the world.-Ameri

The fertilizer most needed on
the farm is brains. One man will
shin along Oh an eighty-acre farm
and grow poorer each year, with
unpaid store bills and compound
interest mortgages, until he gets a
small sum for his equity and
strikes out to try the miserable
business all over again. Another
man will take the same farm and
by combining brain and muscle
will not only get first class liv-
ing from it, but save money every
year. Farms are often libeled
when it is the. owner alone who is
to blame.

CHICAGO TERR0RIzED
RIorINe IN TRANSFERS STRIKE
One Man Killed and Many Others
Creadfully Injured-Brutal At
tacks on Non-Union

Chicago. May 3.-The fighting yes
terday iii the streets was even more
fierce and savage than that of the day
before. The strikers and their SYM
pathlzers attacked the non-union men
at every opportunity, assailing them
with Drlcks, stones, clubs, knives and
any other offensive weapon upon which
they could lay their hands. The fight
ing occurred in the heart of the busi-
ness section of the city, men being
shot down within 200 feet of the retail
store of Marshall Field G. Co., and
clubDed nearly to death at the corner
OF the Auditorium hotel in plain view
OF hundreds of ladies', who were COM
PEELED to run from the mob to save
their own lives.
In many instances men walking
along the streets who had no active
connection whatever with the strike
were assaulted by hoodlums, who beat
them first and later accused them of
being strike-breakers.
notable instance of this kind was
that of Rev. w. X. Wheeler, pastor of
the Ninth Presbyterian Church, who,
while passing the corner of Desplaines
and Adams street, on his way to the
Pennsylvania station, was attacked by
beat him numerically, until the timely
arrival of the police saved him from
critical injury. Mr.. Wheeler managed
to hold one of his assailants until the
police could arrest him.
William Miles, colored waiter,
while at work in lunch room at Ad-
ans and Sangamon streets, half mile
away from any former scene of rioting
during the strike, was also a victim OF
the strikers fury, although he had no
connection whatever with the trouble.
He was accused of being a strike
breaker, was pounded on the head with
billy, knocked down and trampled on.
Miles was removed to the hospital,
where his injuries were pronounced Sc
we're.
AS far as known but one man was
killed during the day. The list of in
jured is much greater than that which
it is possible to obtain. In many
cases the non-union men swung their
clubs with great effect, knocking men
from their wagons headlong into the
street; in other instances, when as
sailed by mobs. they fired point blank
into the crowds, and it was difficult to
see how the members of the mob could
escape many broken heads or how the
bullets fired should have gone wild.
The team owners association, which
employs none but union teamsters,
fatty refused this afternoon to make
deliveries to any of the firms now in
volved in the strike when ordered to
do SO by the employers association.
When the employers received this
ultimatum they notified the team own
ers that unless they recognized the re-
quest that no discrimination be made
in deliveries an effort would be made
to have all existing contracts between
the team owners and the business
houses and the railroads Cancelled.

FIGHTING IN WARSAW
cossAcks FIRE INTO THE CROWD
Reign Of Terror In the city-NearIy
One Hundred Persons Killed
Bombs Thown by
Workmen.

Warsaw, May 2.-Nearly 100 per-
sons were killed or wounded in dis
turbances in various quarters of War
saw yesterday. The troops apparently
were uncomfortable and violated all
orders to act with moderation. They
fired into the crowds of demonstrators,
and workmen In retaliation resorted to
the use Of firearms and bombs. Many
women and children are among the
dead and dying.
What approaches a reign of terror
exists, the city presents most gloomy
aspect and the temper of the entire
community augurs i'll. The presence of
numerous patrols of Cossacks, cavalry
lurking danger.
No untoward incident was reported
until after noon. The first disturbances
occurred between l and 2 p. m. when
a procession of several thousand work
men carrying red flags marched along
Zelanzna street. The demonstration
was quite orderly and proceeded with
out molestation for some distance.
Suddenly several squadrons of Uh-
lans appeared, but without interfering
with the procession, and took up po-
sition along the sidewalks while the
workmen passed through the lines.
Then company of infantry ap-
preached from the front, and immedi-
ately the cavalry charged into the pro-
cession, driving it with the fiat Of their
swords into disorganized mass.
When the cavalry withdrew the infan-
try fired volley. whereupon the dem
onscrators turned and fed.
The infantry continued to discharge
volleys into the retreating, shrieking
multitude.
Thirty-one persons were killed and
many wounded, and of the latter fif-
teen will die.
The shooting is described as having
been quite unproyoked. 1t has aroused
the most intense indignation among
all classes in Warsaw. Many of those
who were killed or wounded were shot
in the back, showing that they were
running away when they were struck.
Another terrible scene was enacted
at p. m. at the corner of Zlota and
Sosnore streets, when workmen fired
from behind aewall at a patrol, which
Immediately opened fire on the passing
crowds, killing or wounding twenty
persons.
The first bomb throwing occurred at
$3.50 o'clock last night. when a bomb
was thrown into Cossack patrol near
the Vienna station.
Three Cossacks and one policeman
were killed and two women who were
leaving the station at the time were
severely wounded by the explosion of
the bomb.
