McCooxg, Neb. 16.—[To the Editor.]— Since the administration has been changed from republican to democratic control, and the department of the interior has adopted a diffgrent rule and policy from qretary Teller, the public iopebus been attracting much attention. i'Seme parts of the country the policy ff (ommissioner Snarks has been denounced by certain classes; in rts G fourse of Sparks has been commended bythe publie. In the McCook land district there is some diversity of opinion as to the rulings ofe the commissioner, The opposition, Wowever, comes from repub- lican quarterssnd the followers of Con- ressman LATAY, while straight-out dem- S llowe Van Wyck endorse the,coyyse of Mr. Sparks. The Laird party;in these parts have been mis- representis Sparks in the most ener- getic manne Ihey have been miscon- struing his rulings intentionally in_order to create a foeling against the adminis- ion and inaugurate chaos he In their effort to accomplish this they have for the! lies the speculators and land shysters in this part of the state, Long- time money lenders who have bee peeting to reap a barvest from the proof ¥ business are loud in of Sparks, and all the land icates liereabouts are in line to- gother with every professiocal who winks at the fraudulent entry practi The above stand in a solid phalanx as op- 110 the method of Sparks, while the and most conscientious element are i from them, and think that sioner Sparks is *‘the right man in the right.place,’’ Sinee the retirement of .

There is much misrepresentation rife as to the effect the rulings of the land commissioner aving through this part of the sts asserted by the enemies of the administration that the course of Sparks is revolutionizing the whole system of doing business he money matters have been made nt and that the “final proof” are cut off from borrowing the ssary to e up. an - ontrage it must be for the government to refuse to ¢ nize a fraudulent proof as genuine in o der to allow the $200 transaction to stand and thereby protect the speeulator and money loaner? Looking at the brought about by the course of Sparksit Imitted that frandulent proof as become mor , land syn- tes have been sent to the rear, while etual settlers are hoginning to enjoy their rights to the public demain. It was Horace Grecley Who asld tio way to re- sume is resume,” anc most certainly way to reform is to reform. President Clovelend foreshadowed this, so far as the public domain is concerned, when he ordered the eattle syndicates to retire from Okla- homa. Under Seecretary Teller, cattle kings and land syndieates and other non- residents gobbled some of the best parts of Nebraska, and hence all this denuncia- tion of Sparks, But “‘Sparks must go,” and Gardner mustgo.” Why, forsooth, because pecu- lation and speculation must to a great ex- tent be at an end, and the worthless gov- ernment surveys done under a former ad- ministration in this state have been brought to the notice Commissioner Sparks by the surveyor genoral, which fact has been damaging 1o this state. Now is the time, if « to correet these surveys before the lands become any more valnable, and while they may be rectified without serious loss to any one.

M. Barreme sat in a first-class compartment and was met just before the departure of the frain by a stranger.

Half an hour later the tr its first stop at Mantes, and the assassin there left it, taking a costly rug belong- ing to his vietim.
