Gets LAND BY
PRIOR RIGHTS
Decision Local Land
Office Has Been
Sustained

BY a decision handed down from the
general land office and received at the
local land office today Henry Mough-
mer of Keuterville is given IA clear title
to land that he has lived upon for II
years.
He settled upon unsurveyed govern
ment land in 1889 and laid claim to
what he thought was the southwest
quarter of section II. He had a county
surveyor make the survey and in May,
1901, filed notice of his claim in the
county recorders office. But when the
government survey was finished in the
spring of 1903. Mr.. Moughmer found
that the land he claimed and the land
he settled upon We're different pieces
and that so acres of the land within
his fences was filed upon by other
parties.
The government plat was filed on
March 25, 1905, and Moughmer offered
his redemption filing, alleging settle
ment prior to the time the preemption
law was repealed. But on April Is.
James M. Rookie filed a contest on the
south half of the Moughmer land, al
leging a settlement in 1904. Rookie
based his claim on a filing made by
Walter G. Addison, who filed on the
land in 1901. also before the survey
was made, when he claimed the north
half of the northwest quarter of Sec
ton 10. Rookie bought the Addison
REIMBURSEMENT in 1904.
The land that Moughmer had set
tied upon and had under fence was not
the land he had described and was in
conflict with the Addison claim. At
the hearing of the contest in July. 1905.
all the parties were present and the
decision handed down by the local
office on September 2S, 1905, the con-
test was dismissed. From this decision
Rookie appealed on October 81 1905,
and the decision of the department
just handed down sustains the local
office and dismisses the appeal, say
ing that the right of Moughmer is the
prior right.

Scales So Fine a Hair
Turns Them

The prescription department of the
Owl Drug Store is the most complete
department of its kind in the city and
one of the leading of the Northwest.
A. c. Dewey. who has zeen recently
connected with the establishment, Is
a pharmacist of wide experience, and
is authority for the statement that the
Owl has the largest and most complete
| assortment of chemicals and drugs Of
any house he has worked in in the
northwest.
Mr.. Dewey's work is the best and the
Owl feels that it is fortunate in Sc
curing the services of so able a man.
DR.. Ray, who has himself personally
superintendent the prescription depart-
| ment for a number Of years, is grad
uate pharmacist and thoroughly con-
versant with the business. He has es-
tablished the most up-to-date method
! of conducting this department. The
double check system is used in filing
all prescriptions, and this guarantees
| against any possible mistake.
A mistake in filling a prescription
check system is method that has
came into use of late years. and is the
safest that has ever been introduced.
| The prescription is filled carefully in
| the first place. and then the entire
| work is gone over a second time check
| ing it up carefully.
1t makes no difference what is de-
sired in the line of drugs. If it is of
use in medicine it can be found in the
excellent stock at the Owl. The scales
they use are the best that can be Sc
| cured. In many cases fraction of a
grain difference in filing the prescrip-
ton would make difference in the
effect of the medicine. A hair will
change the balance of the scales at the
Owl, the measurement is made SO ac-
curately.

RAISE SALARY
OF POSTMASTER

Boise, April 2--The Statesman of
this city says:
Beginning July l, 1906, the salary of
Postmaster w. c. Fenton will be In
creased in the sum of $500 per year.
This is because the receipts of the
local office have increased the last
year, ending March 81, sufficiently to
entitle him to the raise under the post
office rules governing the salaries of
first. second and third-class office
postmasters. From March 81, 1905.
until March 81, 1905, the receipts of the
local postofrice amoNnt fbs4s,o5s.52 or
gain, lacking few dollars OF $4,000
over the receipts from May 81, 1904
to May 81, 1905.
Friday morning Postmaster Fem
ton received his official commission
signed by President Roosevelt. The
commission this year bears evidence
that the Keep commission appointed
by President Roosevelt for the pur-
pose. OF revising the various govern
ment departments with the purpose OF
making the work simpler and cutting
out useless red tape methods, has
been at work in the postoffice depart
ment with some result.
Postmaster Fenton mas now received
four presidential commissions az post
master. The first was signed by Presi-
dent Mckinley and in the lower left
hand corner attached to the big seal il
a knot OF red ribbon. The second COM
mission also signed by president Me-
Kinley is the same. The third COM
mission signed by President Roosevelt
is similar. hut the commission re-
| ceived yesterday has no ribbon at
tached. The red tape on postmaster's
commissions has evidently been dis
pensed with.
| Increase in Mail Patrons.
Yesterday the work Of compiling a
new city directory Of the names Of
persons getting mail Mt the local post
Office and living within the city limits
was completed The new book con-
/. tains the names and addresses Of A.
4s9 persons. an increase since Septem-
Der 1, 1905. of 1884 and since January
! 80 OF the present year Of almost 800. 1t
is estimrted BY Mr. Fenton, figuring
from his list. that the present popula-
| ton AZ Boise. including children OF ali
ages. = not far from 21.5oo.

LAST STAND
OF THE BOSSES

Philadelphia, April 2.-The last year
of Mayor Weaver's term begins today
with the reorganization of the city
councils. Concentrating every energy
and plenty of money in a desperate at
tempt to control the councils upon re-
organization, the corporations and de-
posed leaders identified with the old
Durham McNichn organisation have
lined up for a finish fight with Mayor
Weaver and the several reform bodies
backing his administration. The REM
nant of the machine" is strong only
in councils. 1t has been swept out of
every other place of power. Many
votes are needed to defeat the mayor,
and it Is said that to obtain these votes
large sums of money are being offered
to unpledged councilmen, some OF
whom are vulnerable because they
have accepted gratuities from the once
all-powerful organization controlled
by Durham and McNichol. If the city
party candidates for presidents Of the
Select council and the Common council
are defeated tonight 1t will mean. In
the belief of most people, the eclipse
OF Mayor Weaver and the defeat Of
every pending measure for civic bet
terment.

ing out some of the things which the
past year has done for Birmingham.
A year counts in two ways for young
city 1t means that much OF growth and
that much of aging.
Few of us realize the extent to which
Birmingham has grown since last sum-
mer. We are like masons working on a
building, who are going higher all the
time without being conscious of 1t. Now
run over the business district in your
minds eye. Note the new buildings which
have been erected during the year or are
now in course of construction the cloud
reaching structure on the site of the First
National Banks old home, the shapely
and majestic pile which has arisen from
the ashes of the Caldwell hotel, the ele-
CANT modern stores which have rooted
out shacks here and there and yonder, to
say nothing of the immense union passen-
ger station in the northern portion Of
the city. Birmingham's development as q
business center is written large in all of
them.
The growth of the residence sections Is
equally as surprising when we come to
think of It, On the North Highlands,
the South Highlands and elsewhere in the
home territory innumerable mansions and
artistic cottages stand on ground which
had not been broken this time a year
ago. And the permanent improvements
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1906-06-10

This fact leads up to one still more
inspiring. A year ago today there was
uncertainty as to the industrial develop
ment of the Birmingham district There
was some reason to fear that the large
iron making concerns might pass into
the hands of corporations who would oper-
ate or shut down the mines and fur
naces as they might elect. This appre-
hension has betn removed. The control
OF two of the great companies of the
district has passed into the hands of
men who have given assurances that they
intend to act in good faith with the dis
trict and who will expend millions in
the development of their holdings down
here; and they have already gone about
this work In a systematic, business-llke
way which is more convincing of the
integrity of their intentions than any
grandIloquent announcement which could
be made.
This is a brief and imperfect resume OF
what the year has brought to Birming-
ham, but 1t is sufficient to show that we
may look forward with more confidence
than ever. Birmingham has settled upon
her foundations and has sprang upward
since last summer. This is not paradox,
but a truth which every intelligent man
will acknowledge with the record before
him.

PUBLISHED COMPANY
L 81 BIRMINGHAM ALA, JUNE 10, 1906 No
Now And a Year Ago

About this time last year Realty made
summary Of commercial and Industrial
conditions, national and local, and pre-
dicted another twelve months of good
time. This forecast has been more than
verified. The United States and the great
Birmingham district have thriven and
grown wonderfully since the first days
Of last June.
Conditions now are fully as encourage
Ing as they were at the time when Realty
ventured to make the prediction referred
to- They are better, in fact, as all
thoughtful observers will readily admit.
The country is in more healthy frame
of mind The insurance scandals and rev.
Citations of a like character have had an
anti-febrile and tonic effect. The specula-
tive spirit is not so inslstent. 1t has been
replaced by a feeling of quiet confidence
in the future, and there has been a swing
ing back to sound and clean methods Of
business.
Today Realty will not indulge in any
predictions as to the future, although 1t
believes that future is brighter and more
full of promise than any tomorrow which
has yet dawned upon Birmingham. There
is more of instruction and profit in point

made by tho city and the property own
ers are Just as notable-the paving OF
streets, the laying Of sidewalks and the
construction of sewers have proceeded
steadily. This Is a mere sketching OF the
facts. The best informed man in Bir-
mingham would be astounded If all the
facts in connection with the development
of the city since last summer were laid
before him.
And Birmingham is a year older. That
means so much of the rawness of new
city has been eliminated and replaced
by so much of culture. In every way
life is more pleasant in Birmingham
today than It was twelve months ago.
There is more here to appeal to people
of refinement; more OF the things which
attract the good and less of those which
call to the bad
And while we are considering the Value

not forget that the Birmingham steel
