The steamer Illinois at that time had
limped into the harbor at Racine

AMERICAN EMBASSY

Diplomat in Brazil Finds Re.
 quest for Aid "To0 Thick"

Rio Janeiro, Oct. 25. Pt-Mem- bers of the American diplomatic corps are often expected by fellow countrymen visiting foreign coun- tries for brief periods to perform strange functions Presenting debu- tantes at courts, and arranging au- diences with presidents is part of the days work, but, the corps points out, when it comes to running er- rands there must be a halt some where.
 Recently there arrived here an American conducting eight young men anas women students. As soon as he had stepped over the gang plank the embassy received a tele- phone call
 T am So-and-So My party has twenty pieces of baggage I want to get through the customs with out examination. Have someone come right down and attend to it."
 Explanations that in order to get such a courtesy a request would have to be made through official channels a day or two in advance, and that. furtherm ore, there was no one at the embassy available to Ego right down." did not daunt this man, for he came back with:
 Well you can invite my party to the embassy for tea this after noon then"
 Which seemed to the career man at the other end of the wire just a bit thick.

Between Cleveland's admnstra- tions, however, the lobbyists made something of a cleanup in 1890 with the Mckinley tariff bill. The sugar lobby of 30 years ago managed to obtain an ample bounty on sugar produced in this country. (The su- gar bounty proposal has been re- vived in the 1929 tariff ighD.
 Expert railroad lobbyists appear 10 have pulled off their last large coup in 1900. They had lost none of their astounding nerve.
 The Union Pacific Central Pa cifc, Northern Pacific, Kansas Pa cittc Southern Pacific and Pacific railroads had been handed $140.- 0G0.0Q0 in cash and more than 100,- 0O0.O00 acres of land by congress- There were 45 other railroads to which the government had given subsidies. It was estimated that the total land grants to railroads cover ed arcal equal to that of the New England. New York and Pennsyl- vania. Land grants in each of seV- eral states were the equivalent in area of three or four smaller states.
 They Wanted More
 But the railroads saw that the government still had public lands 10 be grabbed. And they found that some of their own free land was not as good as some of the remain der of the governments land, So the railroad magnates conferred with their lobbyists and their con- trolled members to see what could be done.
 They put the scheme over through the Forest Reservation bill, praiseworthy bill which incidentally provided for indemnitying cvicted homesteaders by giving them choice Of lands elsewhere. When the bill went to conference the railroad members slipped in four words-"or any other claimants" Those four words ena bled the roads to take millions of acres of the best re- maining public lands in exchange for millions of acres of dessert, de nuded timber lands, arid hills and mountains covered with perpetual snow Senator Pettigrew of south Dakota raised hOller, but congress dominated by the railroads, refused to take any action until the roads had all they wanted.
