Bad Land Title Tangle Is Revealed

very simple process. The territory
mot exceeding" ten miles square was
ceded to the United States govern
ment by Maryland and Virginia and
placed under the authority Of three
commissioners, appointed by the presi-
dent. They o. any two Of them were
required, under the direction Of the
president, to survey and by proper
metes and bounds define and limit a
district of territory, and the territory
so defined was established as a perma-
nent seat Of the government Of the
United States. Power was given the
commissioners to purchase or accept
land on the eastern side of the Poto-
mac, for the use of the United States.

required to provide suitable buildings

was to raise money to erect the pub
lie buildings that the government
planned to sell its land to private par
ties.
No sooner had the capital city been
laid out than land spectators ap-
peared on the scene, and as a result OF
their operations, 1t is asserted, much
land which belonged to the govern
ment illegally passed to individual
owners.

REPORT made to congress by a

A REPORT made to congress by a
"A commission appointed to examine
land titles In the District of Columbia
discloses that many lots Of land occu-
pied by modern business houses and
residences in the national capital are
still owned by the government, not
w~ithstanding the present tenants be-
lieve they have a clear title to the
property.
This question Of land titles in the
national capital is not a new one. Two
years ago congress created a commits
sion to study it. The commission con
sisted of the attorney general, the Sec
rotary Of war, Senator Scott of West
Virginia, Representative Bartholdt of
Missouri, and one Of the district com.
missioners. The report reveals a hor-
rible land tangle, which the courts will
probably never be able to straighten
out. The tangle is the outcome of the
wild speculation in real estate that
took place for a good many years after
the capital was laid out.

nEER and elk preserves may play an
u important part in reducing the
high cost of beef. According to gov
eminent experts who have made an
investigation of the cost and methods
of raising venison, declare that the
game laws of the various states are
preventing deer and elk farming and
denying the country n of its chief
sources of cheap and good meat. Deer
and elk can be raised readily in near
IL every state in the Union. They are
easily controlled and cheaply fed.
The increase of elk under domestica-
ton is fully equal to that Of cattle.
They are harder and more able to
stand exposure and the elk hide is
more valuable than that Of the steer.
The Virginia or Whitehall deer, COM
mon in most parts of the United
States, is not so hardy as the elk, but
with proper care can be raised with
profit.

have co-operated with individual
ranchmen in caring for the vast herds
of elk in the Jackson's Hole region in

are 10000 elk in the Yellowstone park

herd left. For two or three winters
these elk have been fed, and have now

knew that the note In question was
sent. 1t was a regular routine matter
in the German foreign Office and fol-
lowed the ~stereotyped form.
Nations are excessively polite to
one another in their interchange OF
communications. Every letter that
goes out from the state department to
a foreign government has this cere-
monial finish:
Accept, excellency, the renewed as
ran of my highest consideration"
The cermonail letters Of all coun-
tries begin in about the same way.
For instance. all Of England's COM
m~unications begin:
George w., by the Grace of God. OF
the United Kingdom Of Great Britain
and Ireland. king, defender Of the
faith, emperor of India, etc."
Nicholas, by the Grace Of God, en-
peror autocrat of all the Russias, car
of Casan, cEar Of Astracan, etc., lord
of Plescott and grand duke of Smo-
lenski, etc."
Germany's letters are very much
like those of Russia, in that they be-
gin by announcing all the titles OF the
ruling potentate. William H., by
Gods grace, emperor of Germany and
king of Prussia" etc., is the way the
present emperor addresses his cere-
monial letters. The emperor writes
with a quill pen, and If n may Judge

Warden Nowlin of Wyoming, who has
led the feeding experiments, says that
the last of the great elk herds is be-
coming rapidly domesticated. Several
ranchmen In the Rocky mountain coun-
try have conducted private elk pre-
serves for years. Outside of the pri-
vate elk preserves there are few herds
left in the west.
Barrett Littlef1eld, who lives near
Slater, has several hundred elk on his
great ranch. Every season he ships
many carcasses of elk to the Denver
market, besides supplying geological
gardens throughout the country. He
has found 1t profitable to raise elk for
the market-so profitable that he
abandoned the cattle business years
ago and has devoted himself entirely
to the raising of venison. There are
two other elk preserves in northwest
ern Colorado. j. B. Dawson, a Routt
county pioneer, has several hundred
head of elk on his ranch near Hayden.
The Glen Beulah deer preserve Is an
estate of about 5000 acres ear De-
beque, Col, and here one finds sew
eral hundred deer and elk roaming
about. Henry Binning, Of Cora, Wyo..
has a large herd Of elk under enclos-
ure, and in a report = the government
he shows how easily elk yield to cap
tivity when he states that the an
closure in which he keeps the animals
Is less than four feet high.
In nearly every state in the Union
the killing of deer is forbidden Il
cepting in the fall and during a linn
tied period. If deer and elk are to be
raised for the market the venison
farmer must be allowed to kill for the
market, whenever the demand is there.

the administration of the affairs of a
municipality. In the first place, Sky
scraper city had no unemployed to
provide for. 1t had no prisons, no
po~orhouses, no hospitals, nor any OF
the many other public institutions
that are part of the average American
city. And, furthermore, it was not
periodically rent by political strife.
The population, nevertheless, was a
most eXacting n and in this respect
iS%kyscraper City was unlike the aver
age American municipality. In most
communities the people will stand idly
by and see the politicians divide the
loot of oflceholding without even
looking to their personal interests. In
Skyscraper City, however, let a win
dow be broken, let the voice of a radi-
ator be raised in plaintive protest
against too much steam, OF let the wa
ter supply be affected by too little
pressure and the mayor is instantly
besieged by angry constituents de-
manding this or that officials removal
from office.

LABOR DA1 CELEBRATION A SUCCESS
Many People Enjoy Festivities OF
Day Set Aside for Labor
A Big Parade.

Labor Day in Roundup is always
the occasion for a big demonstration
and this year was by no means an
exception. The Central Trades and
Labor Council, representing the
various local unions, had charge of
the celebration, and every feature of
the day was carried out in the most
approved fashion. Those who were
in personal charge Of the arrange
ments were we'll pleased with the
result Of their labors, and they must
be given much of the credit for the
successful demonstration Of union
labor such as cities Of the size and
age Of Roundup seldom witness.
The parade in the morning, head
ed by the No. 3 Miners Band, with
Con Smith as color bearer, followed
by all the different local unions and
also the Roundup Band, was in
spring. There were about $50 men
represented
The excersises and sports took
place in the afternoon in Marion
Park and large number of people
gathered there to enjoy them.
Speaker Patellow of the American
Federation of Labor, addressed the
people on unionism, and he was
very warmly received.

letic events were as follows:
