The Day of the EI5o.

Next Thursday, June IA, will be the
129th anniversary of the adoption OF
the star spangled banner as our ma
tional ensign. Every true American
honors the flag, not because of its
beauty, but because it is the symbol ol
liberty. good government. civil rights
and human progress. This year is the
53rd anniversary of the introduction OF
Hostetter'S Stomach Bitters. the pop
ular home remedy. Many others have
come and gone during those years
while the Bitters is more firmly estab
lished than ever. That proves its
merit. If you suffer from poor appe
tite, heartburn. fiatulency. vomiting
cramps, indigestion, dyspepsia, costive
ness, or malaria, fever and ague, one
bottle will convince you beyond all
doubt that it is the medicine to cure
you. Sickly women and children are
also benefited by taking the Bitters
every month.

CORNELL BILL NOT APPROVED
VI. $. Mansfield of Homer Objects to
Terms of Proposed Law.

HOMER, Neb.. Feb. 21.-(Special.)- S.
Mansfield OF this place has sent to Con-
gresham Mccarthy protest against the
Cornell land bill recently introduced by
Congressman Kinkad, under the terms of
which cattle men are to be permitted to
lease government land al from y cent an
acre up. Mr.. Mansfield in the course of
his letter says that the bill as at present
drafted will have the effect OF driving
from land already entered a number of
homesteaders who will be unable TO COM
ply with its terms, more especially with
sections and 10. which provide for the
fencing of lands by homesteaders in order
to prevent depredations by cattle owned by
lessees Of public land. He says that men
who can comply with these terms can
better afford to buy land in settled coun-
tries than TO comply with such law, and
that the evident purpose Of the bill is to
keep actual settlers from the land so that
II may be used indefinitely by the large
ranchmen. who. he says, will by some
hook or crook obtain color of title TO the
land before the leases have expired He
also strenuously objects to the provisions
for settling controversies between actual
settlers and the lessees. saying that through
those provisions it will be possible to so
annoy homesteaders that they will be
compelled to abandon their holdings, as
the expense OF contests will be worth more
than the land.
The writer calls attention TO the rapid
settlement OF western Nebraska, saying
| that much OF the land now being farmed
was once declared worthless and declaring
| that II the homestead laws are not inter
fered with within ten or twenty years the
so-called arid lands will be supporting a
population OF 10000 people.
He also refers 10 the alleged illegal ac-
ton of cattle raisers and says that they
probably did not object TO the passage of
| the present laws governing the public do
main because they thought they would
never be enforced. He predicts that should
the Cornell bill become law there will be
many homesteads abandoned by settlers
who have taken land counting upon CO.
operation Of the government in their effort:
/ to make homes. but who will be in despair
should the government abandon them &c
| the mercies of the large ranchmen.
He closes by a request for a full hear
ing OF the question in committee before
| final action is taken.
