decision of Registrar Batting of the
local land office in regard to his
ratifying the right of the state in its
selection of certain timber lands in
preference to the Northern Pacific
railway company which it claimed
under It's indemnity right.
On June A, 1909. the Northern Pa
eiic railway company applied for
selection under its indemnity right
to large tracts OF timber lands that
are located In sections L. and 5
and in all of q, %, %, 81, 81. 80
and IS. and part of section II and
the Sc ia OF section %. all being
located in township AZ n, range 4 (.
Its application TO these lands was re-
jected by Batting on the grounds that
the state had applied for a survey OF
them in 1901. These lands had
been temporarily Withdrawn in 1906
and became a part of the Occur d..
Alene forest reserve, but were again
restored to the public domain in
1907.

Many Of the reductions appear to

would be considerably extended as a

Missouri river points and the rates
from further eastern points appear to
be scaled up, in comparison with coast
rates, as they approach the Atlantic.

WASHINGTON, June 25.-Taking
passing filings at the insurgents and
paying his compliments to the demo
Gratis, Speaker Cannon issued state
ment in which he said in my judg-
ment the two sessions of the sixty
first congress have accomplished more
and done better work than any other
congress of which / have been a
member. 1t has rarely occurred that
congress enacting a new tariff law
has accomplished much else save
handling the appropriations for the
government. This congress has not
only revised the tariff without dis
turbing business but it has enacted
important legislation, amending the
interstate commerce law, making thai
law more effective, giving the inter
state commerce commission greater
power, and creating court of com
merce and this without seriously af
fecting the business of the railroads
or checking their increase of wages
to their employees.
Cannon reviewed the enactment Of
the postal savings bank bill and paid
| high compliment to Chairman Weeks
| of the postofice commission, declar
| ing that the measure was the best
illustration of party legislation II
years and that it fully justifies the
necessity for party action in grea
legislative body"
He referred to practically every i'm
portant measure that was adopted
and in reference to appropriations
the speaker said they had been large
but not nearly so large as had beer
demanded. He said that congress
men were eager to economize in al
matters except those in which they
are personally interested. In this
| connection he took the minority tc
1 task.
"The democrats have talked about
economy but they have helped every
appropriation and there are bills en-
dorsed by democrats and bills not
passed which would calendar say 10(
million additional expense. So take
| it their talk about economy is Pick
wickian.'

TRAGEDY rs RECALLED

1T Is quite possible that the body of
Mrs. l. Connover, one of the victims of
the terrible fireworks drowning dis,
aster OF last August at Burlington,
may be recovered near Nauvoo. A
clammer working in that vicinity d
few days ago brought to the surface
woman's scalp with hair containing
hair pins intact Search will be in
stituted to see IL the remainder of the
body cannot be located. 1t may be
I the remains of Mrs. Connover and it
may be the remains of a young woman
who suicided from the FIT. Madison
bridge last summer.
The details of the drowning tragedy
are fresh in the minds of everybody.
The victims were Mrs. Marshall Jor-
dan, Mrs Conover Of Mt Pleasant and
lad named Eddie Lee, who jumped
| from Bouvias launch in panic after
! the explosion of fireworks on a barge
to which the launch had been tied.
/ The Lee boys body was recovered in
day or two Mrs. Jordan's body was
/ found last fall but that of Mrs Con-
over could not be found.
A dispatch from Nauvoc contains
the following story of the finding Of
the woman's scalp:

MURDER TRIALS

Ex-Governor of Colorado Scores Stat
utes Which Permit Murderers to
Escape by Technicalities.

Denouncing the modern murder trial
as scientific balderdash,' c. S. Thorn
as of Denver, ex-governor OF Colorado,
made vigorous plea for more speedy,
simple justice, in an address before
the Iowa State Bar association at Des
Moines.
1.-THE modern murder trial is a Curl
Gus and startling evolution in the law
less science Of the law" said Mr.,
Thomas. "The liberation Of public
sentiment toward the man who kills
the. spoiler of the home has ripened
into a legal justification for homicide,
and we now have the defense of the
unwritten law.
IF a defendant can prove any So
called eccentricity of his own or an
ancestor, immediate or remote, fol-
lowed by any betrayed of excitement or
lack of it on lis part when the homi-
eide Is committed which will enable
his counsel to prepare hypothetical
question of 10000 words, to be pro-
pounded to and answered by half a
dozen medical gentlemen, possessed OF
many college degrees, his chances of
a,quittal are more than even.
These things be trayestfes on JUS
tice which much give way to saner
and sounder methods if the law is to
perform its normal functions.
