The End of al AristOeraey.

Writing OF the American negro, NO
race or class of men ever passed from
slavery to freedom with a record equally
pure of revenge says Carl Schurz in
the May McClure's. Nevertheless, their
absolute responsibility frequently pro-
roEed the whites to an almost insane
state Of irritabiliity. In government
records General Schnrz has left an ae
cnrate and detailed history of those
first days of the Reconstruction In his
memoirs running through MeClure's, he
has added much picturesque incident.

NATIONAL FOREST RESERVES.
They viii BE the Only Means Of Saw
ing This Country From De-
forestation.

If should say that the election Of
a Democratic Governor in Minnesota,
by plurality of 10000 Republican
votes, meant more than ten years az
forestry for our trees~-why, then /
should be called vague, visionary. ana
obscure. But | do believe that. If /
should say dhat President Roosevelt.
in his breaking out of party tradition.
and breaking inc the clean old Amefi-
canism that does not confuse honest
wealth with corrupt wealth, has done
more for our trees than ail our for
estry work has done why, then /
should be called rabid paftizan, and
crank. But certainly this would not
be enough. We must enlarge cur ma
tional holdings; which means that we
must buy back large tracts. the title
Is which was bought from Us for :
song, or stolen from us with q grin.
Suppose We should get absolutely crazy
or absolutely ne-and undertake To
buy 250,000,000 acres Of land at SEQ
an acre. That would mean S50000o0,-
900. Could we finance that with bonis
bearing INTEREST," Not set. We have
not yet been squeezed enough. We do.
ret vet burn twigs ana fagots.
And yet our salvation lies along
precisely that line. The owning Of
larger national tracts. and tho exten.
sion Of national methods into private
lacts-the regulation of private eutt.
iigs and of private waste-certainly
those two things cover the entire sta
alton. More forestry, and more ma
fional forests That Is the remedy.2

Lacks 1852 Votes to Make
Sure Nomination
FOR THE PRESIDENCY.
Southern Conventions This Week Of Mo-
ment--Their Attitude Will Deter
mine Amount Of Work Is
Ahead for the Leader.

Washington, April 27.That Secretary
Taft is nearing the goal Of presidential
nomination is likely to become apparent
in the conventions to be held during the
'seek just ahead
In the instructed column, the secretary
now las 229 delegates. That is not half
Of the number required for majority,
but lis uninstructed delegates have been
electedAt date and there Al 46 contested
seats. It IL probable that the secretary
can count upon 100 votes from the unin-
structed and the contested lists. That
would bring his total up to 800 votes,
which lacks but l62 OF the necessary 49l
for majority.
The conventions Of the last week have
added materially to the uninstrueted list
and in that particular the Taft campaign
has not made as much Roadway as his
friends might wish. The New Hamp-
shire state convention refused by an
overwhelming VOTE to instruct and sent
its state and congressional delegates to
vote their convictions. The Nevada state
convention did likewise, somewhat 10 the
surprise OF the Taft managers.
The Arizona territorial convention
seemed to be controlled by the opposi-
tion TO Secretary Taft, but the latter's
friends bolted and the two delegates
from Arizona help swell the contested
list, which has also been increased dur
ing the week BY two contested seats
from Florida A number Of congress
sional district conventions have chosen
uninstrncted delegates Ia recent days.
The largest number al instructed dele
gates from any one state Is the 80 from
Massachusetts, the second largest num-
Der being the Is from New York state.
Late returns to the national committee
headquarters indicate that the wo Min

instructed should 30 into the Taft col

Coy. Hughes column has increased
from IA 10 30 during the week. The
strength Of the other allies has not
changed. Fairbanks has 80 delegates,

This support comes entirely from their
home states. Secretary Taft's column
of 2Z9 pledged votes comes from 10
states and territories, as follows:

NEW LAND !.
\. 2. ]. !. DISTRICT
Of . msmon lnclud . .
Adams and Bowman
Counties.

The new United States land district
created by the last congress, and known
as the Lennon land district comprises a
portion of North Dakota as we'll as South
Dakota, making it an Interstate land
Office. 1t takes in all of Adams and
Bowman counties and four townships
from southern Hettinger. 1t also in.
cludes sixteen townshipsin southwestern
Morton county and in the Bismarck land
district, townships 12o and 1872 inclusive.
The boundaries of the new district are
as follows: Beginning at the point on
the seventh standard parallel between
the states of North and South Dakota
between ranges IS and 81, thence north
to the Eighth Standard parallel, thence
west to Morton line, thence south to the
Fourth standard parallel, thence east to
the northeast corner of township IS, range
9, Black Hills meridian; thence south
to the Third standard parallel. thence
to the western boundary Of Schuasse
county, thence north to the Fifth stand
ard parallel, thence east to the point be-
tween ranges twenty-three and twenty
four; thence north to boundary line be-
tween North and South Dakota, thence
west to point of beginning.
There is only one or two Instances
where the government has wei consen.
ted to have a land district comprise ter.
ritory in two states, and theIresult has
usually been unsatisfactory as it tends to
confuse. 9
1t will be necessary to transcribe re.
cords at the Dickinson and Rapid City
offices, and it is not at all likely that the
Lennon district will be opened before
the FIRST of January.
The creation of the new district will
relieve the Dickinson office Of some
work after this year, although the heavy
part of the filings and proofs in Adams
and Bowman counties will be over, by
1900. The. area of the Dickinson land
district is 6,267,62o acres and the amour,
which is to. come OF is. a. little evel
100000 acres.
The district when; trimmed will still
contain. about 100000 acres, and viii
furnish a large amount of work for, the
Dickinson office Tor a good office force
for many years to come.
Senator, Hansbrough and Congress
man Marshall worked with the South
Dakota delegation inC Congress in getting
the new land office. They do not say
anything about it in this locality, BIZ
down On the Milwaukee they take lots o
credit for this little job.

Orange Rind as a Malaria Cure.

The Tampa Times, in an editorial
on the commercial discovery Of a
new kind Of orange on account of the
medicinal value of the rind in mala-
rial diseases, makes a suggestion.
This is remindful of the orange leaf
tea used by the housewives of Florida
in the earlier days as corrective for
malaria. There is no doubt of its ex.
cellence as tonic, and it is quite
possible that the rind of the sour
and wild oranges might be made use.
full along the same line. Tea made
from the fresh leaves of lemon sprouts
is of most excellent effect as tonic
and anti-periodic, and steps ought to
be taken to provide supplies of 1t for
the public" Those who have once ex.
perienced the benefit of this old-time
household remedy are aware of its
value. 1t is pity that its efficiency
should not be more widely known
