FRoM A WASHINGTON LETrER.

FROM A WASHINGTON LETTER.
There is real roar going up
from the western Congressman
against the OVERRIDING of conser-
walton business by the general
land office, and while there are
no members of Congress but
who favor honest enforcement
of the laws in reference to the
public domain, yet there is a
strong feeling among the ReE-
i.esentatlves who come from
states where there is large a.
mount of homestead land that
the obstacles being put in the
way of honest homesteaders
have resulted in a great many
cases almost TO persecution
The South Dakota delegation III
both Houses are hotfooted after
the evil, and Congressman
Burke declares that "all these
isms under the head of conser-
vatio re ul;ing in the whole
sale withdrawal of lands, on ac-
count of their alleged mineral
value, as for instance i'll the
Lemon district. and in the pol
lev of the land department in
nagging homestead settlers by
the filing of protests against
their entries, and interfering
with their Just rights, has been
carried to such an extent as to
amount to nothing short of ont
rageous," Congressman Martin
fro n the same state believes
that the subject of "fr-ud has
been greatly ver-worked, and
that as a result the field force Of
the land office has become timid
in even doing justice TO honest
homesteaders, for fear If criti-
cisns, resulting in the vicious
custom of charges being fled a.
gainst honest homesteaders
whether there are any basis for
it or not. Mr.. Martin introduce
ed a bill late in the special SEES
sion, which will be pressed at
an early date, to facilitate
prompt action On final proof OH
homestead entries either upon
protests or any other good and
sufficient reason. The bill pro-
vides that hearings shall be given
the homesteader within three
months, and that within thirty
days after suspension he shall be
served with notice stating the
grounds thereof. Representa-
tives from other states are quite
as emphatic as the South Da
kota delegation, who are by no
means the principal sufferers.
One Member spoke of the matter
as eastern sentiment promoted
by theorists and feature by
muck rakers in the name of con
va'ion, but far apart from
the name" as being at the bot
tom Of all the homesteaders'
troubles felt in so many western
states.

they go il side and divide the
walnuls equally, and thereupon
the two lads scaled the fence,
dropping two waInuts outside
as they were doing so. Piling
the nuts in a heap they proceed
ed to make a division. While
they were t! u engaged a negro
came along the road, and, hear

ped to listen, and tins is what
he heard:
"Ah'lI take dis one"
"Ah'll lake dat one."
"Ah'll take dis one"
"Ah'il take dat one."

"Ah'll take dat one.
Tie darky's eyes began to

And taking to his heels he fled
down the road.
About half mile away a

You'll have to come back
with me and see what is going
on" said the white man, and,
taking him by the collar, he
forced the darkey to retrace his
steps.
When the two reached the
cemetery tine voices were still
going on:
"Ah'lltlke dis one
"Ah'll take dat one"
Then suddenly one sand:
"Now, well git de two out

And they do say, said tie
story teller, that the white man
