The local land office today received notice of the rellnquishment of M. A. Green, of his soldiers additional home stead claim for a tract of land at the junction of Saltwater Creek and Der ing River in the Katalla coal fields. This tract was used extensively by the early prospectors in the coal fields who made 1t their headquarters, it being located at the head of navlga- ton on Boring River.
 The application was contested by the Government in the local office be- cause 1t. with an adjacent tract claim ed by the same party, had 0 shore line of more than 160 rods Under the Alaskan law but 16O rods of shore line being allowed along the shore of any nayIgable waters. Tho defense asserted that neither Boring River nor Saltwater creek were navigable, and tho officers of the local office held that these creeks were not navi- gable, but were reversed by the Com missioner of the General Land Office An appeal was then taken to the Sec retary of the Interior from the decis- ion of the Commissioner, but later the application was withdrawn, and a relinquishment filed.

The silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1909-1925, 1916-09-23

Senator Hollis recently forsook his
duties as a bureau chief at the Chi
cago headquarters of the Democrats
long enough to go back to his old
New Hampshire home and make a
speech. The occasion was supposed
to be non-political, but the Senator
managed, nevertheless, to get a few
Democratic Knockout drops into the
goblet of his eloquence.
1--WE should not forget" he said,
that Cinnamon have been killed
wholesale in California, that Mexi-
cans have been lynehed in Texas, that
Italians. have been mobbed in Louisi-
ana, that Englishmen have been sand
bagged on Broadway, New York. But
what should we say if China. Mex
leo, Italy, or England should claim
the right to send an army into the
United States to punish the offend
ers?"
The Senator intended, of course. to
defend the supine conduct of the Will
son administration toward Mexicos
but his i~ndirection must have defeat
ed itself. His New Hampshire audi
ence must have been intelligent
enough to remember that whenever
Cinnamon have been killed. Italians
mobbed, Mexicans lynched or Eng
lishmen sandbagged anywhere in this
country, the forces of American law
have been powerful enough to seize
and punish the offenders and that
reparation has almost invariably
been made to the surviving families
of the injured foreigners. If WI had
never been able or willing to execute
our own laws, to restore order on
our own soil. to protect foreigners
who have come here on lawful err
rands, or to secure for them the repa-
ration which their wrongs have de-
manded, we would have no right to
complain if their own governments
claimed the right to do for their ma
tionals what we were in duty bound
to do under international law.
This is the difference between the
cases which Senator Hollis cited and
Mexico: Down there the government
whether ode facto" or otherwise.
whether recognized and coddled by
Wilson or not-has shown neither the
disposition nor the strength to pre-
serve order, to protect American life
and property, or to make reparation
for outrages committed. Here is
where the Senator's parallels diverge
In short, his parallels are ~paralyzed
