DESERT ENTRIES.

A law has been passed by congress
granting right Of second desert land
entry, the same as second homestead
entry, and copy of the law and instruc-
tions thereon have been received by the
Rapid City land office.
The bill granting the right of second
homestead entry became law on Feb.
8, 1908, and that granting the right of
second desert land entry on March 20,
1908. The second desert land entry
reads as follows:
"Be it enacted by the senate and
house of representatives of the United
States Of America in congress assembled,
That any person who prior to the pas
sage of this act has made entry under
the desert land laws, but from any cause
has lost, forfeited or abandoned the
same, shall be entitled to the benefits Of
the desert land law as though such for
mer entry had not been made, and any
person applying for second desert land
entry under this act shall furnish the
description and date of his former en-
try: Provided, That the provisions of
this act shall not apply to any person
whose former entry was assigned in
whole or in part or cancelled for fraud,
or who relinquished the former entry for
valuable consideration"
The instructions from the general land
Office with reference to second home
stead entries and the forms of the affi-
davits that have to be executed were re-
Gently printed in The Journal and refer
ence should be made thereto for second
desert land entries also, for the instruc-
tions on second desert land entries reads
as follows: "rhis law is enacted in the
same words used in the act of Febru-
AIRY 9Th, 1905, authorizing second home
stead entries except that this law re-
lates entirely to second desert entries.
Applications for second desert entries
should, therefore, be presented and al
lowed in the manner provided in para
graph of instructions of February 20,
1908, issued under the act of February
8, 1908, and affidavits prescribed in those
instructions may with the necessary
change be used in support of applica'
tions for desert land entries under this
act"

There is every prospect that President
Roosevelt will send a special message to
Congress in the not distant future, look
ing to the suppression of anarchy in
this country. Some days ago the Attor-
ney General was instructed TO institute
and exhaustive investigation for the
purpose of ascertaining if there is suti-
cient authority for suppressing anarchy
by the executive branch of the govern
ment, and it seems that further enact
ments are necessary 80 that special
message is imminent. President Roose-
welt recommended legislation on this
subject iE his annual message of 1901,
and only limited action was taken, Con-
gress refusing to make declaration that
anarchy Was all offense against the law
of nations, as the message suggested and
declining to provide for the arrest Of
American citizens protesting its princi-
pies. All will concur in the judgment
that Congress should take some such
steps at the present time that will seek,
ut least, to prevent the reoccurrence Of
such outrages as that at Union Square
Garden, New York, and at Chicago, up
on the chief of police. Such course
need not and would not violate the lib
srty Of individual speech or of the press
but it wonid suppress that license which
induces the weak minded to commit
crime.

Important Mining Decision.

A Washington press dispatch says
that the United States supreme court
has decided that any state has the right
to collect taxes on any unpatented min.
ing claim. The state further has the
right to seize an unpatented claim and
sell it to the highest bidder, giving what
is known as tax title.
The decision is of great importance
and will tend to settle innumerable min
ing controversies. 1t may even effect
titles on homesteads, desert claims and
the other forms of claims by which
United States property is sold to set
tiers.
The question came up in the suit of
George Elder, Samuel Mcmillan, Alice
J. CombIe, administrative of the John
McComble estate, and others, against
Tingley s. Wood, Mary NJ. Rulard,
Anna L. Finnerty and Cecilia l..
Wahrer. The suit was for the posses
sion of one of the most valuable claims
on the Comstock lode in the Leadville
district, in which millions of dollars
worth of ore is known to be buried.
Tingey Wood bought tax title from
the state before the patent had been is
sued and while the property was still
technically United States ground. Will
helmna GUIDE, widow, had inherited
the claim and had failed to pay the tax,
es because she thought taxes need not
be paid until the patent was in hand.
After the state had sold the claim fol
taxes she sold quit claim deed to Geo
r. Elder and the other plaintiffs. On
the question whether u state can seize
for taxes property which is still techni
cally United States property and or
right to tax an unpatented claim at al
the case was fought through the dis
trict court at Leadville, through the
supreme court of Colorado, and finally
in the highest court of the United
States.
The supreme court said the state die
have a right to tax unpatented land
had right to confscate in case of fail
ure TO pay taxes, and held Tingley
Woods title good one. The plaintiff
appealed to the United States suprem,
court on the basis that the property a
stake was United States property, ano
the Colorado courts ruling was uphele
in full.-Mining Review.

The Huron Convention.

The republican state convention, to
name eight delegates TO the national
convention in Chicago, met at Huron
last Tuesday. Every county was rep
resented by full quota Of delegates, di-
vided with 1921 stalwarts and 2863 pro-
gressives. Both factions were fully or
ganized, and when the first show Of
strength was made there was no change
in the count except when Hamlin coun-
ty gave four votes to the stalwarts and
Sphinx county gave ten votes to the pro-
gressives. A motion prevailed dividing
the resolutions so that a vote on that
portion referring to Governor CrawfoRd
would he had before taking vote In
dorsing Secretary Taft for president.
The roll was called and Crawford was
Endorsed by 2661 against 2224. That
part of the resolution favoring the nom
ination of Secretary Taft for president
was then adopted by acclamation. All
other resolutions were adopted without
objection, among them being the one
favoring the carrying out of the princi-
pies of President, the protection of Am
erican industries and revision of the
tariff schedules to include the placing
of lumber, coal and iron on the free list
and also articles of production manufacs
tured and controlled by trusts or mon
opoly.
The delegates to the national conven-
ton are: Governor Coe l. Crawford of
Huron, E. L. Sem Of Oacoma, X. O.
Strand of Howard, A. w. Ewert of
Pierre, c. H. Dillon of Yankton, A. L.

Dlbble Filter a Success.

Thursday night thorough test was
given the rotary slime filter invented
by H. D. Dibble of Mystic, at the mill
of the Golden Reward Mining company.
Mr.. Dibble set up his machine at that
plant two months ago but the first par
tial tests showed that it required some
material changes and these were made
before an attempt was made to try it out
finally. Preparations for the test had
been going on for two weeks and the
work of Thursday night established
many of the points, the success or fail
ure Of which would have decided the
usefulness of the filter.
1t is positively stated that the test
was satisfactory in that it demonstrated
that the theory involved is practical
the filter did the work for which il is
constructed. 1t separated the shines
from the solution, turning out both in
gradients with rapidity and in the mos,
desirable condition. There are still Ger.
tain features of the machine which will
require some modification, but there IL
no reason TO believe that these correc.
tions cannot be accomplished by the ex
ercise of ordinary mechanical ingenuity
The all important point established ID
that Dibbe's theory is correct and that
shines can be successfully and econoini
cally separated from their solution by
his centrifugal machine.-Pioneer
