HIS POSITION ON THE SILVER QUESTION Profiting by Cleveland's Experiences with the Issue He Will Remain Silent on the Subject, Thus Hoping to Wasnixotoy Bunkiw or Tie F 518 FounteexTi WasmiNatoy, D, Representative George D. Perkins o Bioux City district s quite positivo in his mind that Governor Boles of Towa is trying o move the very foundations of the earth to advance bis chances for a place on the presi dential tickot this year. Ho says thatat the outset of the boom Governor Boles confined his aspirations to the vice prosidential posi- tion upon the democratic ticket, but after the lowa democratic platform announced i the most positive terms in favor of the free colnage of silver, and the great west and south commenced to cut Cleveland on ac- count of his anti-frsn silver attitudo the goveraor bogan to believe that the presiden- tial nomination lay in his pathway. Representativo Perkins had an article in the Washinzton Post tho other day upon the subject of the possibility of Towa occupying & place apon the democratic national ticket this year, in which he calls attontion to the fact 1hat'the Iowa governor has grown o diplomatio of late that although the demo- cratic platform of his srato is very pointedly §t favor of free silver, the governor straddles the question completely. Mr. Perkins says mong_other things that Governor Boies tas very frequently attempted to waintain & discreot silenco on tho silver question and bent ail the strength of his intellect o tho whisky question, which he insisted ought not to be hampered by varty afhations.” He says that the last lowa campuign was fought on the one question of retention or dismissal of the state wide pro hibitory liquor law: that all other questions were rolegated to the rear. He points out the fact, and gives it emphasis, that nothing of free silyor was beard in the campaien, &nd that no one knows the fact vetter than Goveruor Boies, and therefore the wiley governor underestimates the party in the stato in declaring in ravor of free coinago. Mr. Perkins gives tne républican record of Mr. toies, which shows that he has not been ithin the ranks of the democratic party sufficiontly long to poso as a democratic ora- cle, uud observes thut Governor Boies in his oficiul papers has repeatedly recognized the fuct that republicans assisted in his elec- tion, simply because he stood for the repeal of tho vrohibitory liquor law, and has more than once deprécated any attempt to turn such & victory to partisan advantage. At the same time Mr. Perkins rogards Mc. Boies @s @ very decided candidate for the democratic presidential nomination, despite the fact that Boics’ silence upon and evasion of the silver question shows himself 10 be out of joint with his own party in the state. Mr. Perkins thinks that should Gov- ernor Boies be given a place on the ticket this year he would bo, so far as his own stato is concerned, placed in a very embar- rassing position, since the party in lowa would force free silver to the front as an fssue, and its local candidate upon the national ticket would be constantly dodging thut issue, Statehood Bills Will Come Soon. Delegate Smith, who represents Arizona in the house, said today that the hearings which bave been given the four territories, all of which want statehood, had been practically completed by the houso and senate commit- tees on territories, and since the house was expected to take the imitiative steps there would very soon besome of the statehood bills reported from the house commitiee, Jach of the territories stands upon its indi- viduul merits, '[here will be no such thing as an omnibus bill as there was when tne Du- Yotus and Montana and Washington camo fato tho union. New Mexico will prooubly be reported first by the house committce, then Arizona and probably a provisional gov- ernment for Utah which is advocated by the Liberals of that terfitory. 1t is doubtful if a favorable report will bo made upon the bill giving statenood to Okla- homa. The democrats on the committee tako the position that the population of Olkla- homa is too new to eniable anyone to dets mine whether it is permanent, and that it would not be proper to take that country into statehood within two years after it was settled by white citizens and wade a terri- tory. Oklanoma is a republican territory that tolls the secrot of the opposition to Okla- homa in the house committee. It is the opinion of Delegate Smith_and members of the senate committee on territories, all of whom aro best infornied on the subject, that the house will pass bilis giving statehood to New Mexico and Arizona and possibly a pro- wvisional government for Utah. The seuate committee will report the Arizona bill back amended 50 as to inciude Oklahoma, and in that form it will be sent to the senate and finully become n law, und there statehood agitation will ena so far as this territory is concerned. scretary Noble May Succeed Reld, The report that Sccretary Noble was sbout 10 leave the cabinet in order to succeed Whitelaw Reid as United States minister to Great Britain, which was current here toduy, 1s the renewal of a report which is ubtedly based upon the preferences of Secrotary Noblo bimseif and which 15 be- lieved by many who ought to know to be not discordant with tho unexpressed desire of the prosident. Thero is, however, no basis for the rumor in any accomplished fact or coutemplated negotiation. 1t is generally uceepted in Washington that Minister Lteid bas made every preparation to resign his commission and to return home this summer in time to tuke au active part in the next presidential campaigi, ‘Ihe State department has, after its usual fasLion of denying everything, officially de. nied that Mr. Reid will resign, That, how- ever, has nothing to do with the undoubted fact that Secretary Noble is tired of his di- wvision and that be would have resigned the cares of the Interior department last summer had it not been that the president requested Him at that time to continue 1n office. Outhwalte's Army Measure Doomed, Army officers who are agitating their #ouls over the passing of the Outhwaite bill maiing all promotions b the army de- pendunt upon length of servico may rest asily. The bill, which is now in the nittee on 'wilitary affaivs, will never leave it iu its present form. 1t 1s probable that it will be brougit up ameuded 10 apply only to first lieutenant. Such a vl has bosw already reported by Senator Proc- tor ana is on the senato files, The Outh- ‘wailo measure would disorgaize all reiative ravks in the army and promote a largo num- ber of higher rank oficers over the heads of superiors who have wou their promotion by servico aud galiantry. = The sonate comiittee does not propose to see old war time ofiicors overshadowed by men who did ot receive promotion after the war simply cause they were not cousiaered o deserve t. The bill is consmdered too sweopiug by wrmy oftlcers here and if enacted into law thoy say it would certainly causo more in- Justice than it would correct, Farm Anlmals in Nebraska, Tho last bulletin issued from the Agricul- tural department shows tho following on the pubject of farm animals iv Nevraska Horses and mules remain about the same s 1o numbers as on Jauuary 1, 1801, Milch cows have increased in pumber and value auriug the past year.

CHEROKEE STRIP LANDS, Commissioner Carter Tells How They May [ tered Upon. Wasnixaros, D. C., Fob, 24.—|Special to |—Senator Paddock and other mem- bers of the Nebraska delegation are receiv- ing aaily letters from their constituents in- quiring about tho Cherokeo stripin Okla- homa. It appears thatalarge number of Bee readers aro in one way and anotber deeply interested 1n this body of land, and for thelr especial information” the following letter, bearing directly upon the subject, is wiven in full: PARTMENT OF THE INTERION, GENERAL C., Feb, ited ' States senate: Herewith returning the letter of Mr. Jobn Rosicky, dated at Omaha the 9th inst., with accompanying paper, which you referred to me by endorsement dated the I5th inst., in reference to the manner 1in which the lands in what is known as the Cherokeo strip in Oklahoma Territory will be disposed of, I have the honor to stata that the act of May 2, 1890, 26 statutes, 31, provided in a general way for disposing of the lands in the said strip, on their beink relinguished by the Indians, according to the provisions of tho homestead laws, except the provision for commutation of homesteads contained in sec- tion 2301, revised statutes, which it was pro- vided should not apply. “‘It is understood that an agreement has been entered into by the United States with the Inpians by wbich said lands will be re- linquished by thom and be opened to occu- pancy by white settlers, This agroement, it is understood, will be submitted lo congress, and if ratified thereby will be made tho foundation of legislative proceedings for determining more purticularly and exactly upon what terms the lands will be disposed of to settlers. “In auswer to the three questions pro- pounded by Mr. Rosicky in his enclosed letter, I snbmit the following statement, viz: ““First. The agreement with the Indians above referred to has not yet been officially promulzated. 1 understand, however, that it provides for a few Indian allotments within the Uherokee strip,—it is statea that soventy allotments are provided for of cighty acres cach,—the remainder of the lands to be opened to sottiemont. Second. There is no oxisting law which provides for commutation of the homestead entrios to bo allowed by which titie may be procured after a period of residence and cul- tivation less than the usual period of five yours, But assuch commutation has been providea for in othor casesof tne kind, it is probable that congress will do so in this case. By parity of reasoning it is to o an- ticipated that commutation will bo allowea sfter twolve or fourteen months from date of entry. If so, it 1s probable that cnly one price will be required which will ve fixed from a consideration of the amount to be paid the Indiaus. 'The purchase will be allowed ata certain date should the settlor so desire, or if he should prefer it, a longer time will be allowed 1 which to pay for tho land, he remaimng thercon as a resident in the moanwhil “Third. Under the general provisions cf the homestead laws, which are opolied to theso lands under said act of May 2, 1800, a claim to the land may be iuitiated as soon as they are opened to settlement in one or the other of the two ways; (1), the party desir- ing the land may o upou the tract desired in person and make actual settloment thercon ; or (2), he may go to the district land ofico and make enfry there, *‘When tho first course is pursued the sat tler must muke entry or put his claim on record at tho district land office within three months from the date of settlcwent. When the second courso is pursued the en- tryman must €o upon the lana and estublish his actual residenco thercon within six months from dato of his waking entry at tho district land oftice. Tn either case the party’s right to the land on being perfected would relate back to the date of the initiation of the right, wnether by actual sottlement on the 1and or by entry at the district land oftice, In case of two parties initiating a claim on the = same day by either method, the one who is first in time is first in right, and in deciding such a case ‘a difference of hours’ between the parties in doing the first act upon which the right de- pends would be considered. Settlemont on the land give & homestoad party a right thereto which will not be defeated by tho subsequent entry of the land at the aistrict office by another party who is not an actual settlor. On the other hund, an entry ot tho district land office by au iutending settler will gives a right which cannot be defeated by a settlement subsequent in time to such provided tha eutryman himself be- an actual resident on tho !and within me allowed therefor from the date of s formal entry. “It 18 cousidered inevitable that there shall be disputes as to the facts on which priority of rights depends, and even that there shali be simultaneous’ applications for acquiring such rights, but the established principles of tho homestead laws will proba- bly be adhered to by congress in providing for the disposal of these lands; and conflict- ing claims be decided as usual according to the law and facts appearing therein.

Canten, “Commissioner.” —|Spectal Tale- gram to Tar Bee.|—The following list of pensions granted is reported by Tue Bri and Exuamioer Bureau of Claims: Nebraska: Original — Couras Schmid Rufus Cookey, Edward Asher, Duarwi Sowards, Stephen Sleeper, Edward M. 1tob- inson, Charles E.

About 1 o'clock last night Carlson, who had been drinking rather heavily, got into a difculty with Frauk M. Frazier, who passes as the husband and bouncer of the Dora t'razier house at 732 L stroet. Carison and sevoral frionds had boen in the Frazier dive and incurred the displeasure of C. S. Raymond and Mike McCann, two hackmen, who, whon the row betwoen the Swedo and KFrazier began, helped out the divekeeper. The witnesses say that McCann did not do any slugeiug, but Raymond got in several blows with a chair while Frazier used two beer bottles with effect. Carlson’s head was cut in three places, and after ! o lost consciousness he was thrown out of the dive. His friends picked him up and hunted around for a doctor, finally landing at the poiico station witn' him. Several physiciaus were summoned, but his condition was not thought to be serious until this morning, when four doctors wero called in consultation. he man has lain in a sturor since 1 o'clook this morning, and is very weuk from loss of blood. The doctors, how- ever, expect to pull him through all right. Tue three assailants were arrested early this morning, but the caso was continuad until + o'clock, when it was called, but the injured man was still unable to appoar, and tho trial was postponed until tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock.

The morning session was cou- sumed in empanneling a jury. Supreme Court, Morrissey vs Broomel and McCormick vs Omaha, argued and submitted. Work vs Brown, submitted on metion.
