Plain City's catcher came back to

desperate dive for home plate in a
game with the trophy winners OF the
county League at Plain City, Since then
he has been nursing his injury and

HOMESTEAD LAW
is CONSTRUED

Washington. Sept Frank Pierce.
acting secretary Of the interior, hes
written a letter 10 Senator Reed
Smoot constituting the large home
stead act in so far as II provides,
That after entry and until final
proof, the entryman shall reside with
in such distance Of the land as will
ennble him successfully to farm the
same
Senator Smoot had advised the de-
partment that many persons VINO
made such entries at remote distances
from the land entered" Naturally,
they have become anxious as TO how
the interior department will hold as
TO their compliance with the statute
w. l.. Roberts OF Salt Lake. one
OF the entrymen. raised the question.
Senator Smoot suggested that the de-
partment fix a time rather than a
distance limit, and to make 1t in.
cumbent upon entTymen to be within
twelve hours ride by rail OF their
homesteads. The Salt Lake land of
fee has construed this act literally.
and reported to the interior depart
ment that seventy per cent of those
who have made entry up to the pres
ent time are residents of cities and
towns remote In distance from the
lands entered"
Secretary Pierce upholds the con-
structiOn OF the law given by the Salt
Lake land Office, but declines to ac-
cept Senator Smoors suggestion of an
arbitrary time limit Each case, the
department holds, must rest ON the
circumstances. If the homesteader
personally farms the land entered or
personally superyises the cultivation
and improvement of the same. the
department will not inquire into his
place Of residence

MEAN LOWER RATES
EFFECT OF WATERWAY CoMPETI-
TON ON THE RAILWAYS OF
THE COUNTRY.
DIRECT AND INDIRECT SAVING
Conservative Estimate io That In n
Single Year 1t Would &c Moro Than
Enough to Discharge the Entire Ma
tlonal Debt.

II wos sthted in a previous article
that waterways produce both direct
and indirect savings in the cost OF
transportation and also exert what
may be called creative effect. AS
an instance OF the direct saving Il
was shown that the 100 1000. 900 tons OF
freight handled on the gTest lakes
IN 1907 were carried for 5O.oOO.O0o
less than II would have cost by rail.
II the opinion OF the United States
army cngipeorS is coTTect-and this
opinion Is based upon results actually
achieved on the riyors OF Europe
We have a number OF rivers on which
when properly improved, freight can
be carried for less than on the lakes
and many rivers on which IL CAB be
carried for much lees than by rail
II. therefore. the plan advocated by
the National Rivers and Harbors
congress should be carried out-which
includes the Improvement Of all our
rivers TO such extent as shall be found
advisable after expert examination
the direct saving In cost of tronsporta-
tion would be vastly increased. Ii
would probably be Increased tenfold.
but II II were only doubled the direct
saving in single yenr would be more
than enough to pay of tho national
debt
But this is not the end OF the bepe-
hts which the general improvement OF
our waterways would bring, 1t is only
the beginning Reside the dIroct saw
ing there is an indirect saving which
results from the effect of waterways
on railway freight rates. for rates
are always lower on railroads which
meet water competition than on those
which do not. The amount OF this saw
ing Is not everywhere the same. owing
to difference In conditions, but wc
can get a good general idea OF II from
study of some sample instances.

COMPLIMENTS J. v. CURRAN.

Keosauqua Republican-Ottumwa
people are congratulating themselves
over the fact that one of the useful
and esteemed citizens of that city,
Jas. v. Curran, has been honored with
the nomination of treasurer of state on
the democratic ticket. Mr.. Curran is
about 80 years of age, gentleman of
excellent character and is one Of the
self-made men of Ottumwa, which so
often is of the best make. The only
fault that can be laid aga nst Mr.. Cur
ran is his political belief, but he Is en-
titled to that privilege just as the rest
of us are entitled to ours. We only
wish he was a Republican.
