There has been for years an apprehen-
sion on the part or some American manu-
facturers lest home industry receive its
death blow from the introduction OF free

an a recent interview as saying: From q

a MIL TMain. STORY.

When Mark Twain was staying In
Frankfort (during President Cieve-
lands administration he learned that
the American consul at that point was
to be removed. Not because OF incom-
petence. but because he was a repub-
hcan. and q democrat wanted the Job.
The great humorist was personally ac-
quainted at the White House, and he
decided to interfere. He did 1t I'm CHAR
acteristic fashion. He wrote to little
Miss Ruth Cleveland, describing the
case. and saying. II can't send any
message to the president, but the next
time you have a talk with him con-
tell him apout Captain Mason and
what l think of a government that SO
treats Its efficient officials"
To which a reply was sent; aEreply
in d tiny envelope. postmarked Wash
ingtor, Enclosing this note In President
.Cleveland's handwriting:
. Miss Ruth Cleveland begs to ac-
knowledge the receipt OF Mr.. Twain's
letter and say that she took the lib
erty OF reading II to the president, who
desires her to thank Mr.. Twain for his
information, and to say that Captain
Mason will not be disturbed in the
Frankfort consulate. The president
also desires Miss Cleveland to say that
IL Mr.. Twain knows OF any other cases
Of this kind he will be greatly obliged
II he will write him concerning them
at his earliest convenience
May not we draw from II the con-
clusion that IL there were more Mark
Twains in the world-or more men OF
honor and integrity who were willing
to speak the right word at the right
time--there would be fewer cases OF
injustice on he part Of officials In
high position, who too often cannot

cases and causes in which their names

OF INTEREST TO
MANY ENTRY Men
Finding Water on Claims Taken
Under the Smoot Act Does
Not Invalidate Entry.
Mr.. Lewis A. Merrill.

Agricultural Expert, Salt Lake
Route. Salt Lake City, Utah.
l am in receipt of your letter
of June 10th advising me that
subterranean water may be
found at a depth varying from
10 to 70 feet over a large area
of land classified as Enlarged
Homestead Lands" and enquir-
ing if it would be possible for
Smoot Act entrymen on these
lands to prove up and secure
patent if they should get water
by pumps and put some of the
ground under irrigation.
This question has heen pre-
sented to me a number of times
since the passage of the Smoot
Act in 1909, as there have been
many cases where entrymen
have discovered means of secur-
ing water after making entry,
such sources of water supply be-
ing unknown at the time the
land was designated under the
provisions of the Smoot Act and
unknown to the entrymen at the
time of entry. The Importance
of che question prompted me in
March. 1910, to ask the Secre-
tary of the Interior for a ruling
to act as a precedent. | submit
ted to him letter | had received
from resident of Salt Lake
City, to base his ruling on. This
resident had made entry under
the nonresident section (Sec-
tion g. Of the Smoot Act, and
later had secured water in suf-
ficient quantities for domestic
purposes by means of well.
On May Is, 1910, The Secretary
of the Interior replied to my
request for a ruling, which re-
ply will be found in full in 38 l..
D. $50. In his letter the Sec
rotary made the following
statement:
while it is believed that a
designation or classification of
lands under the Smoot Act in
volved is not necessarily conclu-
sive nevertheless. | am of the
opinion that where entry is
made under the provisions of
section 6, upon the faith and in
full reliance upon the correct
ness of the designation or clas-
should not thereafter
be modified to the injury OF
anyone who in good faith has
acted upon such designation.
The fact that certain entry
men have secured water upon
lands so classified, would prob
ably constitute good reas ON
for re-examining the lands in.
cluded within the area desig-
mated, with view to recIassifi-
cation. such Reconsideration,
it would seem, should
be restricted to lands which
have not been entered upon the
faith of the former classified
tion."
The SecretarY's letter of May
A, 1910. was used as a precedent
for the decision in the case of
Theodore Mott" 80 l.. d. SO.
In this decision it was stated:
by analogy to the foregoing,
it is not believed after land has
once been designated as coming
the provisions of section
3 Of the enlarged homestead act,
and entry has been made there,
on the strength of such des-
ignated, that the entry should
thereafter be cancelled in the
absence of a showing of bad
faith, fraud. or failure to COM

Ants Build SkySerapers.f

West African anthills are veritable
giants, frequently standing 40 feet
high, says the Wide World. These
anthills are shaped something like q
sugar loaf and are divided inside into
hundreds OF tiny rooms. They have.
needless to say, myriads Of inhabitants
and these are all busily occupied In
various ways, forming tunnels, making
roads. gathering food and watching
over the eggs and youngsters. The
natives are afraid to touch these hills.
except from distance. with firearms.
The ants often make their strongholds
around trees, and they are built very
solidly, with sides sometimes,20 inches
thick. The inside is hollow, and at
the top there is q sort Of attic. The
royal CELL" where the queen ant
lives, is always found on the ground
floor. This good lady is a prisoner,
but Is carefully fed by her busy sub
jects, the eggs she lays being immedi-
ately carried away and deposited in
rooms" set apart for the purpose. s3
