On account of the great population

The Argus and the Republican at
Caruthersvi make fine team, pull
ing together. hand in hand, for the
defeat of the county democratic ticket,
but since we have lifted the mask from
the Argus no one should be deceived
by that sheet. AS for the Republican,
that paper is making votes for the
democratic party every day and less
ening the chances of the republican
candidates, but because the Argus,
under q former man cement, was
democratic, many people have been
slow to believe that under its present
management it has changed it's poll
tics. But now the Argus is out in the
open, fighting the democratic ticket.

EDITORIAL COMMENTS.
THE TRUTH

We would be- very GLAD if the
Caruthersville Democrat could
learn or could be taught to con-
fine its statements TO the truth.
Relative to letting the elec.
ton ticket to be advertised, the
Democrat says. in part:
Later Mr.. York appeared, and
with the assistance of Colonel A. l..
oliver. showed the court two conflict
ing sections.
Besides being absolutely un-
true, the above is an insult to
our attorney. Colonel Oliver
cited the court TO but one sec.
Ion Of the law, 1851, which is the
The only section between the lids
Of the statutes regulating this
matter, and our contentious were
absolutely correct.
No doubt the other side scar
rhed from Genesis to Reve lations
IN their efforts to find some con
iiicting law, but they could not
lind it and did not even attempt
to deny the law upon which we
BASED our co Intentions.
But we are too busy fighting fol
the democratic party to pay at
I tcntion to this matter now.

BY the way, we notice that the Ca
ruthersville Republican is adver tised
to sell under mortgage, and soon the
massive form Of the sheriff will stalk
into its door. Then the little orphan

there will a solemn procession of two

of Pemiscot county. They know Il good

DECISION NOW
Is AFFIRMED
HOMESTEAD ENTRY or =. ZAHL
ON ISLE ROYALE rs DE-
cLARED TO Sc VALID
AND LEGAL.

The reversed decision OF lie Mar
quette land office, OF which #. II. Daw-
son, OF Houghton. is irceiver In the
homestead entry case of Fred Zahl on
Isle Royale. which several years ago
was decided against Zahl, and last No
vember redecided in his favor, has just
been confirmed by the commissioner
OF the general land office and unless
Henry Norman, the contesting claim-
ant makes appeal 10 the secretary OF
the interior, the court of final appeal
the new decision will be allowed e.
stand. and Zahl viii be permitted 60
again take up his entry.
The case is one OF the most import
ant ever decided by the Marquette
land Office.
Briefly the history OF the case is as
follows. ON March q. 1906, Fred Zahl
a resident Of Duluth, filed homestead
entry on Isle Royale. ON April n.
1903 Henry Norman. a rival fisherman
residing on the island. filed an AFFIDAVIT
alleging that Zahl never established a
residence on his claim, but occupied IL
only temporarily while engaged In the
fishing business, and that he made his
regular home in Duluth, the Isle Roy
ale residence being purely for CONNER
cial purposes.
on Sept. 2S. 1909. the Marquette
land office rendered decision, recon-
mending that the entry be cancelled
This decision was affirmed by the
commissioner OF the general land Of
fce on Feb. s. 1870 and on June Is.
1910, the secretary Of the interior, dis
regarding the appeal Of Zahl. affirmed
the decision and on Aug, l., 1910. thc
general land Office cancelled the en-
Try. on Aug 81 of the same year Nor
man made entry on the disputed land.
The secretary Of the interior, upon
application OF Zahl, ordered a rehear-
ing on Sept. 1G. 1910. the hearing be-
ing conducted before Thomas H. Pres
nell, 4. 5. land commissioner al Du-
mth. on Dec Is. 1910. rhe testimony
taken at this hearing was submitted
20 the Marquette office and after being
carefully reviewed at length, on Nov
Il. 1911, a recommendation was made
that the homestead entry of Zahl be
reallowed. and that Of Norman can
celled.
Norman then appealed to the COM
missioner OF the general land Office,
but the affirmed decision which has
been recently received at Marquette
shows the failure Of his effort.
This action does not finally close tho
case as Norman stll has the righ;
to appeal 10 the secretary OF the in
terror up to about March 15. but 1t is
not likely he will do so and il is gen
orally believed that before the summer

Isle Royale claim.

compelled TO leave the ISLAND during

this fact was Target respons.ble FOR
