back and forth intermittently and once
the warning farmers raced horses
nearly 10 miles to Corunna. each with
the object of getting out a warrant
first charging the other with assault
and battery. The prosecutor declined
to authorize a warrant for either.
Eighteen months ago the litigation
began, when William Parsons filed a
bill TO quiet title TO regular strip
Of land between the farms. embracing
about three acres, and to determine
the boundary. Defendant Ward H.
Bills is over 20 years old. The circuit
court held with the complainant. De-
PENDANT appealed to the supreme
court. which affirmed til eoriginal de-

In the other case the supreme court
found that Charles w. Sager was

made payments aggregating $175 on a
real estate mortgage for $1,000. held
by Fred Hartshorn. Sager claimed 1t

BALLINGER WANTS ALASKA
- CASES TAKEN TO COURTS
Secretary OF interior, in Annual Re-
port, Asks Leasing System for
Oil and Coal Lands.

Oil and Coal Lands.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-In his an
nual report Secretary Ballinger, OF the
department or the interior, devotes
large space TO public land problems.
After reciting the history OF the pub
lie domain and giving statistics TO
show that there is now remaining I'M
appropriated and unreseryed unappro-
priated and unreserved 1l.9S6,409
acres OF public land i'm continental
United States and Alaska, the secre.
tary urges that no change be made In
the laws governing the disposal OF
lode and placer mining claims and
adds:
New or amendatory legislation
respecting our public lands should be
direct, simple. effective and relate
principally to the proper form of dis
position OF the withdrawn lands
water-power sites, oil lands, coal
lands, and rights OF way over public
lands.
"All the coal lands in Alaska not
located prior TO Nov. -. 1906. are un
der the bond OF Withdrawals. Those
located prior to said date are for the
most part under departmental investi-
cation on charges of fraud or irregu
larities, etc. These Investigations
have been taken up under a corps OF
trained officers with the view OF Sc
curing the exact status OF all such
locations and entries. In the mean
time no patents except on full show
ing OF compliance with law and de-
partmental regulations. A class OF
entries, known as the Cunningham
entries. made in 1907, have provoked
wide discussion and popular interest,
largely because of their alleged value
and methods OF attempted acquisition.
In view OF such conditions l deem
It of the highest Importance that all
these cases, involving 33 entries, or
$3.50 acres. OF coal lands, be trans
ferred from the Jurisdiction of the
general land office directly to the
court OF appeals Of the District OF
Columbia for consideration and ad-
judication. without the necessity of "a
ruling as to the validity or invalidity
OF these entries by the commissioner
of the general land office as is now
required in such cases"
The secretary directs attention to
the recommendations contained In
his report for 1909 for coal land leg
islation and quotes from an official
statement made in 1907, wherein
some OF the difficulties which would
be encountered in the operation of a
leasing syste mare pointed out, and
again calls attention to the Importance
of enacting legislation which would
give the department an effective meth
cd OF disposition of coal lands, espe-
cially in Alaska. He points out that
in Alaska ii Is possible that a leasing
system could be adopted to the coun-
try with efficiency ano with less com
plication than in the states. He fav-
ors general leasing system for oil
and gas bearing lands

ings.-"Witch Doctor" Escapes
BRUSSELS, Dec. 9.-Since the an
nexation OF the Congo by Belgium the
majority of the reports received have
pointed to a general Improvement in
the spirit animating the white per.
sonnet, and also in the treatment OF
the natives. one or tw ocorrespon'
dents have, however, sounded warn
ings with reference TO certain deyel-
opments In the rubber plantation
work and the reorganization OF the
army.
Ii has frequently been pointed out
that the old Congo State army was
altogether too large for normal re-
quirements, and therefore the EFFORTS
made to increase its numbers caused
considerable uneasiness in many
quarters. The laying down OF numer
Gus and large rubber plantations by
the state has recently involved a
considerable and increasing amount
OF forced labor.
J The misgivings to which this in
formation has given rise Will be in
creased by perusal of the report
which NJ. Renkin, the colonial min
lister, has just presented TO the Bel
gian chamber.
1t has been decided. says the col
onial minister. TO make a great eX-
tension" OF these state plantations Of
rubber in several districts OF the
Congo. Coffee plantations are to be
developed and the cultivation of new
species of coffee berries pressed for
ward vigorously.
The section of the colonial report
which will cause most uneasiness is
the admission OF punitive expeditions
and "Reminiscences against natives
for transformation. In one against
the Mituku," which finished by the
complete submission OF the people,
two natives" 1t Is reported, lost
their lives"
Another expedition was made
against the Babali with the object
OF catching witch doctor who has.
however, escaped TO the forests.
The sixth operation was made
against the natives in the region west
OF the Lomani. where European
had been assaulted by the natives of
the Witty district"
Numbers OF reconnaissance have
been made In all the territory and ia
twenty seven cases the detachments
have been compelled to use arms"
II is reported that four soldiers We're
killed In these numerous operations
and 10 wounded.
M. Renkin admits that the natives
lost twenty-five killed and about the
same number wounded" Ii these re-
ports have been drawn up in any
measure Of conformity with those OF
the old Congo State days, IL is an

airy story behind them.

Says:
''Comrade James Merrifeld, the vet
eran Missouri Pacific passenger con-
ductor, with his wife, is attending the

gained following the tornado which de-
stroyed the town of Houstonia. Mo.
Merrifield's train had just reached the
station, and, seeing the funnel-shaped
cloud approaching. he got his passen-
gers out, marshaled them behind the

Help the Widow,

As too many veterans are prone to
do. Comrade Henry Foster, formerly of
Co. L, 4th N. Y. H. A., passed away
without clearing up the record of his
boyish enlistmsnts, so that his widow
might profit by his war service, which
was excellent. Comrade Foster enlist
ed when but 16, giving Michigan as his
native State. His father got him and
took him home. He enlisted again,
and gave another Michigan town as his
birthplace, and this time served his
term. He enlisted third time. and
gave New York as his native State. His
parents took him to New York from
Michigan, when he was not quite a
year old, and his widow says that Com
rade Foster believed till late in life
that he was really born in New York
Comrade Foster served nearly 80 years
in the Regular Army in many Indian
campaigns, nearly all the time on the
frontier. He also served in the Philip
pines. Any comrade who knows any
thing of Comrade Fosters service from
1861 to 1865 will confer a great favor
on his widow by writing direct to The

"HoIdup" at Atlantic City?

: Comrade Blair Wolf, Winterset,
Iowa, says that he wants to go to the
National Encampmcnt, but If there is
to be any holdup by the railroad COM
panies or by the citizens of Atlantic
City he will stay at home. He says
that he esn't want to pay two or
three prIves for anything. Comrade
Wolf is Past Post Commander and
poet Of the old 35th Iowa. He is in
favor of Comrade Dyer for Commander
of the Department of Iowa and John
McElroy for National Commander. He
also hopes that Mrs. Whedon, of Win
terset, will be elected Department Pres
ident of the w. r. C. of Iowa.
So far as Atlantic City is concerned
the comrade can rest assured that there
will be no attempt at a "holdup." The
city is trying to do its whole duty by
its expected guests. At the present time
1t does look as II the railroads are 60
ing to attempt a "holdup." but it is not
at all likely that they will be able to
make it win.-Editor National Tribune.
