COMMISSIONER RICHARDS
Is GOING TO LANDER.

is OOlNG ~ ENINOGns
The commissioner Of the general
land office and his corps of clerks will
be at Lander, Wyo., on July Is to SUI
perintend the registration for the draw
ing of lands TO be opened to settlement
in the Shoshone or Wind river reser-
walton. The method Of procedure will
be the same as prevailed at the Crow
creek opening, namely, by registration
and subsequent drawing for choice par
cells. Drawings will commence August
10. There are something like 1,OO0,-
600 acres to be thrown open to settle
ment.
Omcials at the general land Office at
Washington predict heavy mineral de-
posts of vast value will be discovered
when this country is opened and pros
pectors have a chance to look it over
It is generally believed that there are
large deposits of gold Inc copper in
the owl mountains located within the
acreage to be occupied by the white
man.

THE d E OPENING.

Hon. w. r. Schnitger of Cheyenne
has just returned from Billings, where
he acted as n of the supervisors of
the drawing for the lands opened to
settlement within the Crow Indian res
ervation. 1t was a very interesting
procedure and was witnessed by many
people. There were approximately II.
900 names registered and $500 claims
to be allotted. All the names were
placed in n big box and from this box
three boys drew alternately the little
envelopes containing the names of ap,
plicants.
Everything passed off without a com.
plant being made and the fairness OF
the entire proceeding was admitted by
everyone. This modern way of hand.
ling openings, for which Commissioner
w. A. Richards deserves most OF the
credit, is far superior to the old method
of making run n eminently more
satisfactory to all concerned.
Under the old method, the weak and
the ignorant stood little show, while
under the present method all have an
equal chance.
Colonel Schnitger will also act as
one of the supervisors ut the Shoshont
drawing.

JAPANESE COAL MINER
Is HELD FOR MURDER.

l. Inashayi, a japanese coal miner at
Kemmerer, has been bound over to the
district court under $1,000 bonds charg-
ed with attempting to murder his room
mate. Inashayi went to work in the
mines leaving his companion to make
fireworks for the Fourth. When he re-
turned he found his companion drunk
in the quarrel which followed shot
his friend twice, inflicting serious but
not fatal injuries. One bullet struck the
nan squarely in the forehead, but
strange to say, the bullet was fiatten-
ed out and did not penetrate the brain.

UMo IN THE SENATE.

Occasionally the staid old senate
chamber is the scene of witticism and
more particularly is this true when
the men of the west are on the floor.
A recent issue OF the Congressional
Record shows how a Wyoming man
has fun with the staid and straight
laced ones from the Atlantic coast:
"Mr. Warren of Wyoming: Mr.. Presi-
dent, we now have in u bill appro-
priations for the white fly and for the
brown.tailed gnat and the bobtailed
beetle, and the Lord only knows what
else, all at the expense of the United
States. Since when, after expanding a
hundred thousand dollars or more upon
the brown-tailed gnat. is 1t wrong to
charge the United States n matter of
two or three million dollars for the
examination of the immense meat pro-
duct, which is the greatest industry of
the entire line of American industries?
"Mr. Proctor. 1t strikes me there is
a little weakness in the senator's com
parison between the gypsy moth, the
brown-tailed moth, and beef. The
brown-tailed moth comes to us as a
sad dispensation from Providence
while the beef comes from the pack
ers, and we can hardly hold Provi-
dence responsible for the latter.
"Mr Warren. One is the act of God
and the other is the act of the pack
ers-is that it2
"Mr. Proctor. But we can hold the
packers responsible for good beef"

cd from other sources, that Senator
Warren concentrates his efforts upon
those measures in which his own sec
ton Is Interested, or with which he has
made himself perfectly familiar. In
other words, Senator Warren is usual
ly pretty sure of his ground before
taking the floor to speak or leading the
fight in committee or elsewhere for
any question. He is chairman of the
military committee and has one Of the
finest rooms In the senatorial end Of
the capitol"

the job last fall after hard fight.
The new board of directors consists
of C. L. Allison, Joseph Ingersoll, w.

son. The company will also enter the
commercial field and a merry war is
already on between the new concern
and the old company for business
The old company is trying to shut
the new one out of the street lighting
contract by bringing a suit to quash
the contract on the ground that it is
illegal. The case will come up for hear
ing in the superior court in a few days
before judge from some other city,
as both judges who reside here are dis
qualified from hearing it.
There is considerable speculation here
as to whether or not the Edison Elec-
trio company is not i'll fact the real
hacker of the new company, in order
to get into this field. 1t could hardly
do so openly, owing to the agreement
it is understood to have with the old
company that it will not compete i'll

This is denied, however, by the officers
of the company, who state that the
new concern is wholly independent and
has no connection whatever with any
of the old companies.

HIGHLAND. March 23.-While visit

Tuesday L. C. Waite, a Riverside
banker, was seriously injured by a
falling board His scalp was cut so
badly that FIVE stitches had to be
taken.
Mr.. Waite is the owner of one of
the most extensive and paying navel
orchards in this district. His forty
acre grove is situated in the very heart
of Highland proper, with the Santa
Fe track lying along the southern bor-
der and the packing houses adjacent.
Frank H. Welton has sold the ten
acres owned by him near Base Line
and Boulder avenue to John Yarnell.
The consideration is given as $4,000.
The land is partially set to young citrus
fruits and formerly belonged to Mr..
Yarnell.
The shade tree controversy of a few
weeks ago has finally been settled. The
school trustees have set out another
row of trees, but they have placed
them several yards from the property
line of the neighboring orange groves.
The original trouble arose over the cut
ting down of a row of old pepper trees
that overshadOwed the Coy orchards
to the west of the school property.
The trees were set out seventeen
years ago by two former trustees, w.
H. Corwin and D. r. Seeley, both
wealthy and public spirited citizens.
The gentlemen took the greatest pride
in the appearance of the school grounds
and entered a protest to the present
trustees when the destruction of the
fine old peppers was planned.
Fruit growers are rejoicing over the
high prices that continue in the re-
turns for their citrus productions.

SANTA MONICA, March 23.-In a
comprehensive and detailed statement
made public today w. 1. Hull, presi-
dent of the board of trade, and e. j.
Vawter. president of the First National
bank of Ocean Park, give the reasons
why they, as two of the freeholders'
board of fifteen chosen to frame a
charter for this city, did not append
their signatures to the document drawn
up and which will at a special cleo
ton, March 2S, be presented to the
voters for acceptance.
The gist of the objections submit
ted are embodied in the following
paragraph; Besides the trustees and
board of education there are only four
elective officers. There are twenty-one
officers directly appointed and a large
number of others through commissions.
No terms of Office are fixed and every
official is under the control of the
council and must serve 1t instead of the
people" The statement in concluding
sounds a warning to the effect that
large vote may be expected on the
official side of the question and an in
difference in voting on the part of
those who have expressed themselves
as opposed to the charter is the only
hope being held out for it's acceptance.

SAN PEDRO, March 23.-There was
considerable excitement for few min
utes on the street this morning, caused
by fist fight between George H. Peck.
the wealthy magnate and landholder
of San Pedro, and member of the city
council, and Luke Kelly of waterfront
fame.
The "scrap" started between Kelly
and Peck's son, William, over some
thing which the young man was re-
ported to have said. The elder Peck
soon took a hand with the result that
Kelly received a scratch on the cheek
but was not otherwise injured.
Politics seems to have been the
primary cause of the whole thing, Peck
having stated al the last meeting of
the trustees that he would be in favor
of Sunday closing of saloons unless
there was a change in existing condi-
tiCns.
No arrests were made but the excite
ment was intense for a few minutes.
Kelly is anxious for a second license
to operate a saloon in the new hotel
he is now building on the corner of
Palos Verdes street. This conces-
sion has been promised him by the
board but there is a chance that it will
not be Forthcoming.
Strike Natural Gas
Workmen employed on the Duffy
ranch, four miles north and west of
San Pedro, while digging for a we'll
yesterday, struck natural gas, the flow
being so strong that they were obliged
to desist in their work.
The flow did not last long after the
men had quit work, but it is thought
it can soon be opened again by a lit
tie further work.
