REWARD TOO SMALL.
Fugitive Finds Difficulty in Getting
Arrested at Pierre.

UIERRE, S. D., Jan. 6.-Several days
ago Sheriff Logan Of this county, was
approached by an individual VINO said
he had escaped from custody in Kan
sas City and desired TO return to face
the charge against him, and wanted
the sheriff to take him in charge and
return him to the Missouri authorities
for the reward. The Missouri authori-
ties were notified and replied that the
man was wanted all right, and that a
reward Of $50 was out for his return.
After figuring out the cost Of two
tickets to Kansas City and return
TRIP for one, Sheriff Logan decided that
he was not looking for any such snap,
and told the Missouri people to come
on and he would snow them their man.
They evidently figured the same way,
and after the man had loafed around
here several days in his attempt to
break into Jail, he vanished as he had
come, no one apparently knowing
from where or to where. He is sup
posed to nave made his way to some
point where an officer could figure
within his expenses, on a $50 deal be-
fore he found any one willing to pay
his fare back to Missouri.

Jerome K. Jerome.

Jerome K. Jerome, who appears at
Whitman chapel Monday evening with
Charles Battell LOOMS in a humorous
recital, says he has been anxious for
a long time to visit and see the native
American on his own soil. Those who
are quite intimate with him say that
he will probably gather some inter-
esting material for future use from
his travels. This tour of America
which began last October, is the first
to be made by the now famous author
Of Three Men in a Bout, and as he
will soon return to England a great
deal of interest has been aroused
in his coming to Walla Walla, which
was brought about from the fact
that the jump from Salt Lake City
to the Sound would have been quite
a long one, so this city was fortunate
enough to be selected as stopping
place.

is PREPARING FOR
TITANIC STRUGGLE TO RE-
COVER ACRES OF LAND.
ington and Oregon in Hands Of
Few Men.

The United States government is
preparing for one of the greatest le-
gal struggles in it's history soon to be
inaugurated when an attempt will be
made to wrest from the great eastern
timber kings and stockgrowers the mil
lions of acres of public lands fraudu-
lently acquired.
The move marks the second step in
the land fraud prosecutions, the first
being the detection and conviction of
the thieves who have plundered the
public domain. Vast tracts of land in
Washington, Oregon. California and
other western states are at stake. They
are now held by millionaires who will
spend their treasures freely in order to
retain their booty. Fortified in their
possession by money and political in
fluence, their position might we'll seem
impregnable, but the government is
preparing for a titanic struggle. Civil
suits have been instituted already in
few cases, but these are but the scat
tering skirmish fire which marks the
opening of battle all along the line.
Through the frauds perpetrated on
the government, the great bulk Of the
timber lands in Oregon and Washing
ton are now concentrated in the hands
I,o1
land thus held was lawfully acquired
but it is estimated that at least two
thirds of it was obtained by fraud
One tract in Southern Oregon larger
than Multnomah county is held under
a single ownership. Another tract ly-
ing east of the Cascade range is equal
in area to Wheeler county. Equally
large tracts are held in Washington
and Idaho.
Large areas were acquired in both
states by Benson and HYDE the noto-
rious California operators, against
whom dozen indictments are pending
G. A. Smith of Minneapolis; Pillsbury
the Weyernausers, Hyde of Wisconsin,
Cook, of Chicago; Walker, of Milwau-
kee; Goddard, Withes and others who
amassed fortunes in eastern timber
were quick to see the possibilities that
the west afforded, and they bought tens
of thousands Of acres with scant at
tention to the means by which title
was secured.
Suits have already been instituted
for the recovery of 100000 acres of
land in Washington and Oregon, but as
yet the government has scarcely made
a beginning in the task of recovering
its stolen land. There are other land
grabbers whose operations have been
On gigantic scale who have hitherto
escaped notoriety. AS rapidly as pos
sible suits will be instituted to compel
them to disgorge.

DOMINlON'S RAILROAD COMMITS 3.
SION HAS GREAT POWER OV-
RANSPORTATION CO.'S.
Has Complete Authority Over Actual
Rates, Including the Power to Dis
allow Tariffs.

In the current issue of the Railway
World, Professor S. ]. Mclean, Can
ada's former special commissioner for
the department Of railways and canals,
presents an exhaustive exposition of
the Dominion's new railway rate law.
The law-barring, perhaps, some pro
visions of the English statutes-is the
most drastic measure in existence 1t
gives to the commission, composed of
three members holding Office for a
term of ten years, the following gen.
eral powers:
F'irst-Complete jurisdiction over
railway location, railway construction,
railway improvements, over the pnysi-
cal conditions of railways and over
their equipment.
Second-Complete control over rail-
way operation, safety appliances, rail-
way crossings.
Third-The authority to compel rail-
ways to obey the laws, general and
special under which they operate,
thereby making the commission the
general supervisor and enforcer of
railway laws.
Fourth-Complete authority over the
actual rates. including the power to
disaIlow tariffs, say what is a rea-
sonable and just rate and compel the
substitution at once of the commits
sion's rate for that of the railway
Fifth-The commission is constituted
the sole judge of facts.
Sixth-The commission is CONSTITUTE
ed as a court and is not amenable to
the courts.
Seven-Practically the only appeal is
to the cabinet, which may over-rule
the commission, or an appeal to the SUI
preme court direct on a question which
the commission deems a question of
law, or upon a question of jurisdiction.
The courts, however, do not have the
right to over-rule the commission.
Eighth-The commission must pre-
vent pooling of traffic.
In scope the powers granted to the
Canadian railway commission resem-
BILE those possessed by the English
board of trade The broadness of this
scope is illustrated by the following
things which the commission may do:
Make regulations governing the speed
of trains in cities and towns.
Fix regulations pertaining to safety
appliances.
Pass upon disputes in respect to all
railway crossings and functions.
Determine disputes between the rail-
roads and the farmers with respect to
drainage.
Pass upon railway location plans and
inspection to see that railways and
railway bridges are kept in safe con-
dition.
The commission may disallow any
tariff that violates this provision. I'm
der such conditions the railway must
substitute satisfactory rate or the
commission may prescribe one.
