LOOK WELL. DEARFIELD. LISTEN
CAREFULLY.

A word of warning has been given
the settlers about signing papers and
leases, ETC., and for water rights, and
it seems that some have not accepted
the warning because they thought they
were wise enough to defy the laws OF
the national government, which have
made it possible for them to secure
home for themselves for mere pit
tance in cash and by compliance with
its laws for residence, cultivation, i'm
provements.
Several have taken up homesteads
and some have proved up in Dearfield,
and have leased their lands to cattle
men to the annoyance of others who
have honest intentions of homestead
ing in compliance with all of the gov
ernment laws. Some of those who
have leased their lands are now in
trouble over their leases as they say
that the lease they signed was not
made out as they had talked and
agreed and they come to me now to
help them. My advice to all home
steaders, whether in Dearfield or else
where has been to employ an attorney
and to sign nothing pertaining to their
homesteads without consulting their
attorney and then fellow his advice. l
am not an attorney and would not as
sumo the responsibility Of advising
always consult my attorney in all le-
gal matters of my homestead rights.
Anyone can locate people upon land,
but the one locating can not hold you
obligations are between yourself and
the national government. Uncle Sam
does not grouse ignorance of his laws.
Those who have made leases in bad
faith Of the government laws can not
blame anyone but themselves If they
are contested and their claims can
celed because l have repeatedly
warned them against signing for water
rights and leasing to cattle companies,
etc, without first consulting the land
Office or their attorney. One man
leased his claim to a cattle company
for five years for the mere sum Of
$3.50 per year with the understanding
that the cattle company would put a
fence all around his property, when
the lease was signed. Since he has
signed and read his contract he is dis
satisfied and wants to go back on his
agreement in favor Of the cattle man,
but he has proven up and has his pat
ent and is liable for his contract. The

LET US GIVE THANks-THE
THANKSGIVING SPIRIT.

Thanksgiving Day was observed at
the churches as usual and a large
union service, the first for some time,
was held at Campbell church, where
all of the congregations met and In
due reverence and thankfulness gave
obesiance to God for sparing their
lives, provision for food, raiment, shell
ter and good health and the beautiful
weather given us SO bountifuliy by our
Heavenly Father. This spirit was
earnestly shown in various ways, some
people made their joy manifested
through playing football, duck and
geese hunting, others danced, tripping
the light fantastic toe artisucaliy'
while still others attended the church
entertainments at night. The aged,
the sick, crippled and poor of the COM
munity were carefully and tenderly
looked after with good wholesome hot
dinners generously given by the
churches and other charitable organl,
cations. The Union Service at Camp
bell in which all the churches perform
ed their part was one OF the most
grateful things the Star was not only
proud of, but inspired by, as well as
by the united manner and good fel-
lowship shown by the city pastors.

MAJOR Mo1oN,s OPTIMISM.

Hampton Institute Official Emphasizes
Cooperation Between the Races.
Commenting on the conditions which
confront the colored people in all sec
tions Of the country In their efforts to
make progress. Major Robert R. Motion
Of the Hampton Wa.) institute says:
Gwen the casual observer must see
that there IL growing a spirit Of real
cooperation and sympathy between
the two races in the south. and that
never before has there been a more
earnest and sincere effort on the part
Of both races for mutual help and CO.
operation.
There IN a growing and genuinely
honest disposition on the part Of the
colored people everywhere to seek the
advice as well as the assistance and
co-operation of white people in every
movement for the common good of the
race. There is an increasingly strong
feeling on the part of laboreFs and
mechanics for unity and cooperation
with similar groups Of white artisans
composed Of whites, and the unions are
seeing more and more the necessity
for closer union of the various class
es Of skilled workers, and this feeling
will continue to grow as men become
better trained, better educated and
better Christians.
'In educational matters also there II
a growing sympathy and spirit of CO.
operation between the races. The Ne
gro is calling on school officials for a
fair and equitable distribution Of
school funds. He n asking for better
schools. longer terms. better pay for
teachers and better equipment In
many cases the Negroes out Of their
own earnings are buying land for the
schools, often putting up the school
houses.
Sometimes they supplement the pay
Of the teacher. this generally being
done with the advice and approval Of
the local school officials, who are max
ing appropriations for school purposes
with liberality such as was never
before witnessed"

Des Moines, la. Hot wealth

evening, when quite general
showers preceded cool wave
Heavy showers also occurred in
many localities on the night Of
the 18th, the heaviest rain,
both on the 18th and 10Th, be-
ing reported from the eastern
part of the south central and
southeastern counties, where
the moisture was badly need
ed. In many localities the
showers were accompanied by
high winds and electrical
storms, and in some sections by
hail. Much damage was done
to corn and grain. Corn was
blown down and uncut grain
was badly lodged. The storms
were, however, of a local char
acter, and the beneficial fleets
of the rain will far exceed the
amount of damage done by
wind and hail. Corn over the
greater part Of the state is still
in good condition and caring

beneficial. Harvesting is about
completed in the southern coun-
ties and is we'll advanced in
northern districts. Threshing
