oDELL's ACCOUNT CORRECT.

The account given by former Gov
erpor Odell Of New York about the
Hartman activity in raising $4,000
for the Republican campaign fund of
1904, is undoubtedly correct. Mr.,
Odell was on the inside, and knew all
about it; and when he says that Presl-
dent Roosevelt sent for Hartman to 90
to Washington, laid before him the
necessities Of the campaign, and pre-"
vailed upon him to raise the amount
of money stated. the account which Mr..
Odell gives must be accepted as true,
This part Of the matter was of public
knowledge at the time, and the letter
which President Roosevelt addressed TO
Mr.. Hartman, the keynote of which
was that "we are both practical men,
(meaning that they were both Of the
mind to do whatever was necessary
to get success,) acknowledged the
Presidential activity in the matter
and also the willingness of the then
President to do whatever was neces-
sary in order to get the money, The
money was raised, and the scandal
soon broke out. But that scandal re.
flected upon the President, and not up
on Mr., Hartman.
Mr. Odel adds new feature to the
deal, which was not known to the pub"
lie at the time, and so far as we are
aware, is now made public for the first
time. That is the agreement OF
toll uro
of Chauncey NJ. Depew by making him
ambassador to France in order to clear
up the Senatorial situation in New
York and allow of the election Of
former Governor Frank S. Black to the
e. $. Senate. Here was an underha nd
deal, which went along with the rails
ing Of the money and TO which, as
Governor Odell AYERS, (then) President
Roosevelt agreed,
We have not the slightest doubt but
that Mr.. Odell is telling the exact
truth all through, and especially on
the two main points of the raising of
the money and its division and the
agreement of the President TO the Sen
atorial deal.
1t is all ancient history now, but it
has personal bearing upon Colonel
Roosevelt's political methods and his
stick-at- nothing means to achieve re-
suits. The fact that the money was
raised is a matter of general knowl"
edge, it has never been disputed Even
Colonel Roosevelt does not deny the
raising of the money, but claims that
it was raised altogether for the cam"
paign in New York, and that the
money did not go into the hands of the
National Committee. Mr.. Odell shows
fully that the National Committee did
get the money, though the most of 1T
went to redeem campaign pledges IN
New York State. But the deal calling
for the appointment OF Senator De"
pew and the election of former Gov
erpor Black to the Senate was not car
ried through. 1t will be in vain that
the Roosevelt defense may seek to
overthrow the testimony Of former
Governor Odell; for it is undoubted-
ly true,

The President is clearly right in ask
ing Congress to vote this money. and
it will be the duty of Congress TO make
the appropriation. At the same time
it is matter of buying off pirates
from their nefarions work, and morally
Objectionable on that ground. Practi.
cally. however, it is the only way to
stop the piracy, and the Senate ratified
the treaty which calls for the money

NEW DRY.FARM RULING.

The vagaries of rulings made by
clerks and minor officials in Wash
ington with regard ia Western land
propositions, are beyond all accounting
for. We have had various obnoxious
rulings in regard TO mining lands, and
there is a constant Influence directed
in Washington against the utilizing OF
Western country The amended home
stead bill is construed away as far as
possible. and entries under it are con-
tested, thwnrted, and in various ways
made uncertain. There seems d deter
mination among the bureaucracy OF
Washington to attond to it that the
people shall not have the rights with
regard to public lands that the laws
assure them, and that such rights as
the people enforce under the law shall
be abridged or made difficult so far
as regulation and supervision can
make them.
The latest instance of this kind is
reported In tho affirmation of local
ruling at the u. s. Land Office
at Bozeman, Montana. This ruling was
to the effect that where dry farm
is made to yield crops. desert land
entry adjoining that farm will not be
allowed, and the General Land Office
holds this TO be sound position.
The practical effect Of this is q
warning to all concerned who want to
make desert land entries that they must
not open dry farms in the vicinity Of
the desert land desired. for if they do
they will not be allowed TO enter the
desert lands, The fact that although a
dry farm be opened it is still desert
land, appears to be lost on the per-
spicuous mentality Of the office clerks
in Washington, and any effort of the
Western man TO help himself little
by opening dry farm is made his
undoing in case he wishes to also make
Il desert land entry.
The fact that a dry farm may be
opened on desert land does not in the
least do away with the fact that it is
desert land; nor does it by any means
arouse any presumption that the land
around it is not desert land in the con
temptation of the desert land act.
The whole proposition amounts to
about the same thing as though good
tenant would repair the house be rents.
put it in nice order, paint it. and make
it attractive, and then have the land
lord raise his rent or perhaps drive HIM
out of it altogether because his yolun-
tary labor has been so beneficial to the
premises.
So far from the opening of dry farms
on the deserts Of this Western country
operating against the taking up of Gov
erpment land either by desert land
entry or otherwise, it ought to have
precisely the opposite effect; and in
any event it is clear case that to
construe the activities and enterprise
of the settlers Of the West against
those settlers and restrictive of their
rights of taking public land. is such
an unwarranted turning against them
selves Of their own enterprise and labor
as to be unworthy Of a great Govern
