TOM wATson's MAGAZINE.

Tom Watson has the style Of the
clear-cut reformer, who krOws what
he wants and will Ii ght for tho trim
ming, no lodging, no beating about
the bush. He goes straight to the g'ss
of the subject discussed and in short
pare graphs lucidly Eliminates q sub
iecs to the comprehension Of a COM
mon mind what other brilliant writer's
might require pages to say. o. eleven
pages of the first number Of his new
magaZire he discusses the late cleo
ton, pays his respects to w. J. Bry-
an, Teddy Roosevelt, tie ship sub
sidy, w. Il. Hearst, the greenback
question and the Inauguration cere
monies, incidentally touching on q
score Of subj CTS of vital interest to
one interested in the practical appli
cation Of needed reforms in our gov
eminent. Other promin snt reformers
discuss economic questions and lib
eral portion of good fiction and witt
cisms i'll cut the l2S pages of reading
matter.
There is no doubt that Tom Wat
sons Magazine is destined to be a
great educating agency Ia the great
struggle to co ne. Tom Lawson, G:
E. Russell and kindred writer's in po G
ular magazi aes that sell by the mil
lion each month are supplying the
avidenc, that is opening the eyes OF
the American people to the enormities
of special and class legislation. Tom
W atson diagnoses the causes and
points to the remedy in his own in
imitable, racy style,-sound in logic
and clear as a bell.
The reports are that yearly sub
scriptiOns to the magazine are coming
in at rapid rate. The American
News Company placed an order TO,
$4,000 copies of the first issue to b
sold on the news stands. If the sup
ply at other cities were as quickly ia
ken as the small number sent to VIII
mar news dealers the rews cOmpanie!
will double this amount in their mex
order. This is Certainly a grand re
suit in the establishment of q publica
ton that breaches sine n-pure popu
lisn, democracy Or republicanism-
we don't care what " II call it, just 81
1t has the right quality.

custom will not stop until. the great
systems are controlled by
one body-either private monopoly.
or the government. The people have
decided that they do not want the for
mer; they have yet to learn the neces'
sity of the latter. They must run thru
the course Of palliatives before they
will try the cure.
When the work Of education Is 6n-
tshed the reformers will have chance.
Under what party name they will rally
it is impossible to say. The reforms
may como through unanimous do
mand that will sweep away party dis
functions.
Meanwhile let every friend reform
do his. best to spread the exposures u
monopolistic methods, and cheer or
every man who battles for popu(a,
| ri ghts, regardless Of party names.

Young Garfield, by virtue Of lis
parentage raised to position on the
interstate commerce commits sion, has
been investigating the beef trust. He
evidently interviewed some of the
philanthropists at the head of tina,
benevolent institution, and they load
ed him up properly. He then went
home and wrote up report in which
he denied each and every allegation
in the mpiaint, and proved that the
kindhearted gentlemen who manage
the trust are doing business on such
a narrow margin that it is only by
having hash for breakfast and smok-
ing ''Battle Axe' tobacco instead OF
Perfecto cigars that they can keep GU.
of the bankruptcy court. OF course it
makes no particular difference VIVA,
that commission says, as it has nc
power to do anything but talk, bu'
some people have taken umbrage q,
this ridiculous attempt to whitewast
one of the most notorious monopollet
in the country. The Kansas senate
last Monday adopted the following
scathing resolution regarding this
matter:
eve request the president to rejec,
this report and appoint some man with
experience, with independence and
nerve that shall qualify him for the
Commercial highwaymen known as the
beef trust, to The end that the public
may be fully informed as to the sources
Of their enormous profits and founda.
lions Of their colossal fortunes, and
the means, instruments and agree
ments by which they have robbed pur-
chaser and consumer.

TO EXAMINE KLAMATH LAND.
Governor VIII Decide as to Character
OF $500 Acre Tract.

During the latter part of next week
Governor Chamberlain and State
Land Agent Oswald West will take a
trip to southern Oregon, where, in
company with an agent of the gov
ernment, they will view large tract
of land in klamath county to deter
mine whether it shall be classed as
agricultural or swamp, says the Sa-
lem Statesman.
The land in question is situated in
the Swan and Meadow lakes district,
and consists of about 1900 acres. 1t
has been taken up and homesteaded
by number of settlers, but their ap-
plications for patents have been held
up by the government on account of
the swampy nature of the land. The
greater portion of it overflows dur
ing the wet season of the year, and
is unfit for agricultural purposes,
and the object of the visit of these
officials is to determine how much
of 1t is swamp. 49,.
In the event of it's being declared
swamp land, the government will
patent it to the state, when 1t will be
subject to sale at not less than the
minimum price of 81 per acre, as
provided by law.
The dozen or SO settlers who have
been working and living upon the
land during the dry season, when 1t
was subject to being entered upon,
will not necessarily lose 1t, as they
will be given an opportunity to pur-
chase 1t from the state at the mini
mum price instead of procuring it
from the government as homesteads.
Upon the states selectiop of the
land as swamp the settlers will file
their ACCOMPLISHMENTS and, at the
same time, their applications for the
purchase of it from the state, thus
giving them the prior right.
This land is situated in a small val
ley in the vicinity of Swan and
Meadow lakes, and is valuable as ag-
ricultural land only for haying pur-
poses and can be entered upon only
during certain months of the year
when the water Is low.
