Washington, Jan. 25.-Governor
Magoon, OF the provisional govern

to the secretary Of war, brings his at
tenIion 10 the wreck of the United
States bartleship Maine in Havana
harbor and recommends that The
government take immediate steps 10
accomplish its removal without fur
ther delay. He says:
1T vii be necessary in a short
time 10 begin dredging in order 10
provide proper anchorage for the
large amount of shipping now enter
ing the harbOr, unless the wreck is
removed.
Even more important than this
obstruction TO navigation is the fact
that this wreck, although II contains
the bodies Of So American seamen,
or what is left of them, is apparent
ly abandoned and forgotten by the
government and people of the United
| States. Thousands of Americans and
and other nationalities annually en-

and eensUre for the deplorable spec

1T has become a national reproach
and an international scandal. The
neglect 10 remove the wreck is at

large Spanish contingent in Cuba, tc
the fear that its removal will dis
close the faIlacy Of the popular be-
lief that the Maine was destroyed by
a torpedo or mine instead of an in

TIE COMMERCIAL CLUB.

Al The annual meeting Of the
Commercial club. Monday night II
was wisely decided TO continue along
business rather than spread-eagle OF
even social lines. The Commercial
cub Is for business. for work, Tor
development Of Enterprise and Val
Iowa county: not for social amuse-
ment not a school OF politics and
oratory.
The club has been successful along
its present lines in accomplishing
whatever it has undertaken. And Il
has been free OF factions and iea--
ousias. no doubt because it has been
4 purely business affair.
The club is democratic in lis
membership. for every citizen Of the

citizenship. and as such is enttrle1

This is the same working princtplt
as that of q private corporation, rha'

man has devised.
This long explanation Of the plan
of the Commercial club is givel es
peciaIly for the benefit Of the many
newcomers in our city, who have
wondered a. the absence Of "hooray
meetings" that usually accompany
the workings Of such bodies.
There is more work cut out for IN

Secretary Garfield has received
many complaints from Western SEN
ators and Congressman about the
manner in which land Office special
agents have harassed eutrymen who
have been endeavoring honestly to
acquire title TO public lands. One of
the most vigorous protestants has
been Senator Borah, of Idaho, who
has cited specific instances in which
special agents have not only failed
10 carry out instructions with refer
ence 10 assisting honest settlers, but
have gone to the extreme of under
taking TO dispossess settlers, without
authority of the Interior Department
He also cited instances where specir /
agents, continuing along the lines il
vogue under Secretary Hitch .oc'
had done their utmost to disoreC {
honest settlers who were making ev-
cry endeavor to comply with the law.
Secretary Garfield has specifically
stated that special agents are not to
place obstacles in the path of honest
entrymen, but must render them all
proper assistance.

Senator Nelson, Of Minnesota, q
chairman of the public lands COM
mirtee, is author Of q bill, recently
introduced, which is intended to re-
peal the timber and stone act, and
forever put an end to the sale or dis
posal Of public timberlands. The bill
is drawn in line with the conserva-
ton policy of the President, and
makes a blanket transfer TO the For
est Service of all Jurisdiction over
the entire timbered public domain,
reserved and unreserved.
The Nelson bill is of such import
anee and proposes such a radical
change in existing law, that II stands
no chance of passage this session.
The proceeds from sales of public
timber shall be divided, one-fourth
to go 10 the state territory, TO be ex-
pended under the direction of the
Legislature for roads and schools in
the counties where the timber sold
was located at the time Of sale. In
those states affected by National rec
lamatiOn act the remaining 10 per
cent of the money shall go into the
reclamation fund, but in other states
il goes into the general treasury
fund.

An early decision has been prom
ised in the case now before the su-
preme court involving the question
of whether the more stringent laws
Of Oregon regulating the use Of
purse-nets on the Columbia dominate
the lessers laws of Washington, cov-
ering the same pursuit.
The case is that Of a Washington
fisherman, who, while violating no
law of his own state on fishing in
the Columbia with a purse-net was
made to answer in Oregon courts
which hold il an offense.
The bill providing an approprfa-
ton of $50.00O for the establish
ment of two fish hateheries on Puget
Sound, was brought before the SEN
ate by Senator Piles and passed. The
bill mas already passed the house.
The secretary of the interior has
urged congress to pass a bill in the
interest of reservation Indians who
have taken allotments which have
turned out worthless. He urges tbs
passage Of a bill permitting Indians
to relinquish unsuitable lands and
select in lieu lands of equal area
from the unappropriated portion OF
the reservation. He insists that the
Indians are entitled to the best lands
OF the reservation, prior to the open.
