PUBLIC OPINION

Editor of the Farmer:
 Sir-Representative Martin of Colo- rado. according to press reports. made the charge on the floor that Wicker sham. acting as attorney for the sugar trust, had negotiated the purchase by the trust of 35 900 acres of the Friar lands in the Philippines, which were first conquered by the United States, purchased again from the F>riarS and the Roman pointiff. These lands had cost the government not only the price of conquering them and protecting them for twelve years, but also an average of twelve dollars per acre in acres of these lands have recently been sold to the sugar trust at six dollars per acre. Of this there can be no doubt.
 MT. Wickersham denies that he ne gotiated the sale. MT. Martin says he did. It has become a case of katy did, katy didn't, and in the noise that is created the people are supposed to forget all about the sale of the lands to the sugar trust, sale in which That is what the quarrel is for. That is the. utility of the Big Noise. That is all this hllabaloo about Roosevelt neans-to distract your attention from the fact that the plutes are getting their hands deeper into your pockets.

Iney are good for half a dozen more trans fers and deals. and after this is all over they will serve for plantations where the natives may work for the sugar trust on conditions that rival those of the Valle Nacional of Mexico or the hennepin fields of Yucatan.

 They were two miles off shore, and the pontoon was almost under the water. when the tug May picked them up. The gale had blown them out from a cove opposite Manor School.
 James c. Phelps Stokes and Gus 1st lecturer, who was Mir.

Mem hers of the Mays crew said that they were in no little danger because the pontoon-one that had lain unused for eight months-was almost full of water and would probably have sunk to the surface in a little while. Then it would have been difficult for the boys to hang on, owing to the rough water.

public good during the several years
Of its career. Among the things
which it secured for this city was a
small park or resting place between

the east bank of the river, the
fountain at the court house corner,
another park on First street northeast,
lawn seats about the courthouse and
parks. etc. Until the organization Of
the Oakland Cemetery association last
summer according to an act passed at
the last session of the Legislature. the
league had q separate. fund to take
care of and make Improvements at

this fund was placed to the credit OF
the cemetery association. The treasury
of the league showed a balance of
$33. Is on hand at the time of disband-
ing, and this has been turned over to
the library board to purchase books
with. The First street lawn seats
were also turned over to the library.
