Makes Speeches to a Mirror and Does Not Know Miss Palms by sight, A recent special from Detroit to the Philadelphia Press, unj'-l: Senator Jones, it1s generally belioved by the people of this country, is insane, "No one speaks to him; he is completely ostracised by society of all kinds, avoided and deprived of all luman sympathy, Even the Catho- lic church and’its priests have deserted him, although he is a member of that soet. His state repudiates him. The United States senate has eliminated his name from all committees, and has prac- tically closed its doors agamnst him. He isa wman without a country, without a home, without a friend, and his- case is the most despicable in some respeets. Scnator Jones' rooms are on the parlor floor of the Russell house, the best suite intue hotel. 'Here he entors, throws osx-n the blinds and windows, stations himeelf in front of a large mirror, which he imagines to be the senate chamber, and makes long, vigorous and lusty speeches, while people gather on the walk below to witness the strange spec- tacla. His self-vanity is boundless; he struts up and down before the glass in a pompous manner, ma_ing sweeping ges- tures and oratoricak flourishes. He dresses like a dandy, walks a half dozen times per day up and down Jefferson avenue in front of the Palms mansion, maintaining this form of silent persecu- tion with unvarying regularity. He does not know Miss Palms by sight. He has passed her twenty times on the strect without recognizing her, Often on such oceasions he has glared at her squarely without showing the least visible !?‘m]:luml of recognition. This con- clusively demonstrates the fact which has been presented to him by the friends of the lady, withont sparing whatever profanity there exists in the languagoe, that he” has only a besotted 1deal in his mind which Miss Palms no more re bles than in the man mn the moon. This ideal 1s the painting of Charlotte Corday in the Corcoran ~Art Gallery. Miss Palms is a charming young probably superior in personal chars teristics to such an ideal, but possessing little of the facial beauty depicted in the paintin, In order to show why the senator doos not know Miss Palins sight, it is necessary to relate correctly some facts whieh haye heretofore been ™ put before the public in a led, hearsay form 1tor Jones and the Palms family are atholics. In the winter of 1883 Miss i g at the house of Mrs. who formerly nds is o her residence it was stomary for leading society people of that t to congregate. At one of these krnllu'rmzs Senator Jones casually met liss Palms. He was merely presented to the young lady and no conservation onsued. During the following summer Senator Jones stopped at the Devon Houso in Newport. At the same hotel y G. Tompson, of Detroit, The gentlemen were in the course of some desultory conversation Mr. Thompson, who naturally pr a United States senator was rving of the courtesy, invited the rglade repre- ive to call upon him if he should ance to pass _through Dotroit. Mrs. Thompson, nee Miss Campau, is adouble cousin of Miss Palms, double mar- ringe in the Palms and Campau families, In the fall of the same year Senator Jones passed through Detroit and was in- vited to a dinner party at Thompsons, where he again was presented to Miss Palms, but no particular conversation was carried on between them. The nexo duy he called on the young lad, posed marringe and indi jected. Al of this « the fu features of the lady completely escaps from the senato mental imagery, if ever he had any. Up to last June the senator made sits to this city. He was inv by the sister superior to iver an ad: dress for the benefit of the Charity Or- phan asylum, and on his way home after the Chicago convention made the ad- ' He stopped here on several oc- asions, continuing a severe persecution of the young lady at all times. He wrote to her daily after his rejection the most endearing letters, which were pla an enyelope and remailed to him. When in Washington he sent to _her reams of his spe and all newspaper articles him, either good, bad or indifferent, all of which were returned to him by express. When in Detroit he sent flowers to h(‘{ daily which were returned to him by the mes- senger. Last Juno he arrived here and registered at the Russell house, where he has been the hotel’s best customer ever since—so good a customer that naturally the proprietors oppose any move to have him taken away. From ihe moment of his last arrival his presents of flowers, deluge of letters, and walks in front of the Palms mansion were kept up with wonderful persoverance. Finally, the frienas of the lady devised a scheme to suppress some of the persccution. At their advice Miss Palms drew her pen through her name on the letters and pockages, inserted his own and sent them to the hotel. Afterseveral doses of such treatment and cowed by the merci- less ridicule at the Russell house he ceased sending missives and flowers and ever since has contented himself with walks past her door. oit. al ——— The Work the Negro Loves. Bill Arp in Atlanta Constitution; The negro lovesto plow and split rails. He is perfectly happy when following a mule on a hot summer day, and happier still when the horn blows for dinner and he can ride home sideways. The mule is happy, too, and answers the horn with a cheerful bray. It is astonishing how much sense an old farm mule has got. 1 know one that when it was almost din- ner time kept one ear back toward the house when he was plowing the other way, and kept both forward when he was coming back. One day I blowed the horn about 11 o’clock to see what Beck would do. She was at the end of the row and it took the darkey ten min- utes to make her turn around and go to plowing again. But it is fun to see the darkies when a summer ram comes up. They will plow on until the shower comes, and then mount and lope home and get wet all over, and by that time he shower is over, and they have to got back again.

THE _OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY, APRIL 30, 1836. LET LAND ROBBERS BEWARE Summary of the Results of the New York Herald's Investigation. The Duty of Congress—Plunderers of the Public Domato Should be Smit- ten by the Sword of Jus- tice—Frauds of the Oattle Rings. [Correspondenee of the N. ¥. Herald.) OxaAuA, Neb , April 20, 1886, —~During the past year the sales, entries and selec- tions of public land under the various acts of congress embraced 20,113,663 acres, a decrease when compared with the year previous of 6,535,656 acres. Of this enormous area ‘of territory no less than 4,755,005 acres were entered under the timber culture act, and 149,801 acres were taken up through the legal machin- ery of the Desert Lands act DEFRAUDING THE PUBLIC. When your correspondent makes the statement that three-fourths of the tim- ber culture entries have proved to be ecither illegal or positively fraudulent, and that a large portion of the lands taken up as desert incapable of raising a crop without artificial irvigation is really the reverse, facts have not been exagger- ated; indeed, the whole story has not been told. The land taken under the mption law amounted to 2,811,206 , and the total of the three above wentioned classes reaches the large ag- gregato of 7,265,602 acres There were taken last year, under the homestead law, 7,414,885 ncres. How many of the entries were fraudulent your correspondent is not prepared to state; but, according to his observations, a con- siderablo portion of the lands so éntered sed under the control of entry men who do not intend to rtulfil th ms of the law or to act in accordance with its spirit. WHERE LOW CUN) The orders issued by the p eral land comm ve made the robbers war groater degree of caution will I {;c displayed than in the past. The homestead law should remain on the statute books, but there should be added an amendment which would put an end to fraud and compel the entry man to be taithful, No cniry should be confirmed and a ent issued until the principal and his witnesses have been examined under oath by a special_representative of the gen- cral land office. A spocial agent of the same department should secretly visit each entry location at least once n the of the number of years the entry man is legally required to reside thereon. In order to attain this last last mentioned essentinl mensure the force of special agents should be increased from the present entirely inadequate number of 25 to 150 or more. At the presens time there arve remain- ing about 200,000,000 acres of public land for the use of the coming generations of men. At the rate of disposal of the past year only ten more yeurs of such reckless and prodigal frittering away of the na- tion’s domain will be necessary in order to reach the end. During the Inst fiscal vear 20,113,663 acres were swept oft the list of the free lands. The waste of a people’s birthright cannot long go on at this fearful rate of expenditure. NEW MEXICO. In the territory of New Mexico there should not only be a general officinl over- hauling of the entire land question, but the personal acts of the government ofli- cers who have served during the past twenty years ought to be rigidly scruti- nized. The gigantic schemes for stealing the public domain which in many instances have been successfully ed out are closely allied to the star route iniquities, both ‘as regards men and localities. While Dorsey was perfecting his details for making a financial strike through the mail contracts on the star routes he was also laying out pipes und locating lines to windward to secure one of the finest tracts of land for stock raising pur- ING COM A S IN.

The bulk of the desirable lands in the arritory are already seized and are held by the wild retainers of the cattle compu- The entries of homesteads and pre-emp- tions, by which the great ranches were created, should be scrutinized, and all such as fail to attain the | I standard should be cancelled. If this were done nine-tenths of the New Mexican lands would be thrown back into the public do- main, THE TWO STEPHENS. Dortng an extended period Stephen B, Elkins was the yirtual dictator of the territory; to-day Stephen A, Dorsey and his following occupy the same position. There has been a partial clearing out of the offices, bu‘ certain changes should yet be made if the cesspool of eorruption is to be successfully disinfected and ren- dered inocuous. This last assertion is made without political bias and n the interest of no eclique, There is no such thing as political morality in Now Mexico. The Spanish grant claim should be handled by congress without gloves. Much of the present contusion which pre- vails relative to these alleged grants may be placed at the doors of the national senate and house of representatives. There are mentioned in a preceding ar- ticle about forty millions of acres of land as held back by the pendi; and unset- tled condition ot the Spanish and Mexi- can asserted claims. When these huge swindles, based, as many of them forgery, perjury and the subornation of the latter, are sifted out and the residu- um boiled down to a legitimate consist- ence it will be found that in most cases the amount of land elaimed, when com- pared with the aci en%’u actually duo, is fully disproportionate. Congress promptly and scttle once for all the entire array of these false claims now pushed torward for recognition. The speculators and jobbers who stand be- hind and pull the legal wires, as well as those on which the false swearing and frauds are strung, are now alarmed at the exposition of their schemes and they will not at present press their bogus claims with the old time audacity, zross has va ed and dawdled over the list of the * i claims before it and the result of its ina 1 is as above stated. The outrageous fraud embodied in the Maxwell grant, of which much has been said and written of late years, is the crowning triumph of stealing from a whole nation, Stephen B. Elkins enjoys very much of the more or less enviable notoriety resulting from the augmenta- tion of aclaim really valid for about 100,000 to or nearly 2,000,000 acres. The foreign holders of this great tract of public land have stopped at nothing to perfect their title throngh the ney of the law, and judges even have been led to make very queer decisious on the sub- jeot, supreme court of the United Sta 5 now to take a hand in the matter, dad'it is to be hoped by all fm"' citizens that#he schemers have at ength run agaimsta rock which eannot be overturned gr cast aside. THE NERRASKA SIDE. The_abolition the timber culture act will hit the “speculative land thieves very hard in Nebraska, Dakota, Minne soti, and in Kansas. {f the statements of the numerous intelligent and soem- ingly impartial persons with whom your correspondent conyersed in the co his lwn-grinu!iun; over the western country in the search ot lund frauds ave to be relied on, there are a considerable number of the members of both houses of congress who.will wink very bard in the opposite direction when anything of a practical nature is attempted to stamp out the frauds. Names have been freely iven, and they are borne on quite “a fi\lh- ist.” Time will demonstrate how these public gentlemen will conduct themselves 1 eyent of the subject by considered in the national slature A portion of Nebraska, as has shown, is honey-combed with rotten entries: in Dakot like the Steele prineipality and the Dalrymple dukedom have be ed out of illegal absorptions of U , Samuel's territory, whilé the story of the grabbing in Minnesota, whereby thousands of acres of land been stripped_of timbo instrumentality of perjured and homestead entries 1s read) ackneyed one.

Let congress swoop down on the three law. which most favor fraud ana repeal them promptly. The elamor which will go up in Nebraska may be ear-splitting, but it will not come from honest settlers. Already in 1 there is a gang of speculators sitting with their vulture eyes gloating on the fat territory of the Sioux Feservation, which may soon, and it may also be said very properly, be thrown out to the public for settlement. An im- mense quantity of rich, arable land will ERUBBGALE tHOagL TOThHY gang of plun- derers, unless the vigilance of the land office interferes and puts on the brak The reservation if made public she be religiously guarded for the entries actual settlers. It is to be hoped th Sparks, the boomer’s bete noire and the land robber’s Damoclean sword i keep his weather optic keenly fi this probable addition to the ppearing lands of the people CONGRESS SHOULD WAK! In the large 'majority of instances the land stealing céarried on in the past has swept like a eyelone over all of the desir- able locations of the public domain, so that but comparatively little remains ot the better kind,of agricultural soil. It is also unfortunately, true that the gri the sharks is so firmly fixed as to pr clude in many tases the reasonable expec- tation of enforced disgorgement. The cry of warning aris te in the nation’s day. Even now, in the face of the overwhelming and incontrovertible extent of the past plundering, there are many well disposed people who are in- clined to throw, off' the responsibility of the present generjtion as the guardians of the rights of a pucceeding one. Such reasoning indicates moral hl. ity as well as reprehensible indifference to the pub- lic weal. The boast of th citizen that his country affords a home for the oppressed of ail nations has turned into a byword and a jest. Unless the robbery of the public lands by g ing corporations and unser upulous indi vidualsis prevented by the speedy adop- tion of stern, repressive measures, the ancient assertion that Uncle Sam is rich enough to give all a farm will be ted among the shades of the numerous othe ald and unconvincing” myths which are consigned to the limbo of ob- livion in the course of the progress of time. ——— When you ecome to Lincoln, stop atthe Commereial Hotel, 1f you want home comforts, C.W. knw,'m-:x, Proprictor.
