Of course here and there & black sheep was found but most of them had never been seriously afflicted with repub- licanism and so their conversion woualdn't amount to much anyway. Many of the moro prominent republicans have left the city for their summer vacation and so some of the leaders are not quoted in the following in er- views, Among those visited were the fol- lowing gentlemen, who expressea their opin- lons: S. P. Vanatta, lawyer—I am very well satisfled with the ticket, and, taking it all through, I don't think wo could have got a stronger ticket, 1 am not parsonally ac- quainted with Judge Crounse, buv I have kuown him us a public man for the last twelve years, and have always known him as a clean, straight man und one who had the confidence of the people, and I think the convention was espocially forturate in nom wating Eugene Moore, I have known him for fourteen years, and there is not a more Lonest, conscientious, retablo young man in the state, and I think we can clect that ticket in November by the old-time repub- lican majority. J. 1. Unrub, furniture dealer and coroner— 1 think the ticket a strong one. Crounse is a stronger man than Mujors, Of course, Cass county wanted Saeldon but we are satisfied. 1 thought that Sheldon would be stronger than Crounse tnis year, because Sheldon is a farmer and this 18 the farmer’s year. R. W. Hyers, insurance-1 think the tickot Is all right. It suits me ull right. It isa strong ticket. James Pettee, insurance—I think the state ticket is all right. I can tind no fault with it. H. N.

A careful reading of this re- port shows that Commissioner Carter will damonstrato that tho liberal and just policy toward the settlers upon the public domain, adopted by Secrotary Noble at the beginning of this administration, has been productive of very satisfactory and baneficant vesults. “I felt justified,”” he continues, “in pre- dicting i my annual report of last year that with the force then at my command, the business of this bureau would bs brought up abreust with the current work by the cad of the fiscal yenr just closed. Itis gratifying to me now to bo able to report to you that a literal fulfillment of that prediction has been fully consummated. In order that the magnitude of tho work done duriug the last fiscal yoar may bo veadily comprehendod and tho results accomplished fully appre- ciated, I fesl warrantod in disoussine briefly the policy that governed and coutrolled the business of this office under tho last adminis- tration from 1855 to 1850, Much to Overcome. “'CommissionerSparks in his annual report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1585, said: ‘At the outsetof my administration I was confronted with the overwholming evidence that the public domain was being wado a prey of unscrupulous speculators and the worst forms of land monopoly, through sys- tematic fraud, carried on aud consummated under public land laws.’ “He further stated in the same report, in discussing the subject of commuted home- steads, that the proportion of fraudulent en- tries of this kina could be more nearly esti- mated as tho whole number of such entries than in any other mauner; that the average provortion of fraudulent pre.emption filiugs to the total numver of filings made and re- linquished should be estimated in round num- bers av exactly 100 per cent, and that 9) per cont of all timber culture entries were fraud ulent, Having become wrongfully imbued with the idea that nearly all, or at least a very lurge proportion of, entries mads upon the public domain were fraudulent, and that the great body of well disposed settlers were unscrupulous speculators, it 1s not surprising that Commissioner Sparks, on April 8, 1885, issued an order susvending action on all eu- tries (except on certain scrip locations and on private casu encries) in the whole of Colo- rado except the Ute reservation, and in all of Dakota, Idaho, Utah, Washington, New Mexico, Montana, Wyomiug and portioss of Kunsas, Neoraskaand Minnesota. Business Channels Clog, “The detrimental effect of these and other similarsweeping ovders and of the mistaken impression and policy which prompted them, upon the business of this oftice was very great and as a conseguence the administra- tion, on assuming the reins of government in 1880, was ‘confronted’ by a land ofiice greatly denioraiized i all its ramifications. Inju tice, or a deniul of jus under the m chinery of the law, was its dominant fea- ture. ‘The settlor who had honestly and la- boriously, and at much hazard and heavy ex- pense complied in good faith with all the re- quirements of the laws, outraged avd indig- nant at the multiplied injuries inflictea on him by maladmimstration, aemanded a pat- ent, o title to the land he held by settlement, by caltivation and compliance with the law fully carned. - Thus, by reason of this err neous and mistaken policy, the lozitimate channels of busiuess in this office had be- come clogged and by reason of wrongful de- lays » vast amount of work had accumu- luted, there being at tho close of the fiscal year onding June 30, 153%, 350,831 entries of all kiuds pending or awaiting consideration Changed the Policy. “1Tuder these ciroumstunces a change of policy was deewed necessary. Hence, shortly after March 4, 1830, & new adminis- trative policy, based on a iberal and enlight- eued interpretation of the pulic land laws, was adopted and has been continued dvring the intervening fiscal years. Uuder thisnew policy settlers ure presuined to be honest and well disposed toward the government and the laws, and public land business been expedited with marked beneficiul results, “On Mareh 8§, 1501, the law was passed catitled *To repeal the timber culture laws and for other purposes,’ in which congress manifested its approval of the new policy or aud by virtue of section b of that arge numbers of cases long suspended the merest suspicion of fraud or undor harsh technical rulings Luve beer and are being passed 10 patont, in a wanner which, while greatly facilitating business, also supplies amplo safoguards against all possiolo fraud.

C., Aug. 7.—An interest- ing question has boen presonted to the Treas- ury departuient in regard to the steam- ships City of New York and City of Paris, the owners of which are preparing to have them documented as American vessels in ac cordauce with the provisions of a special act of congress granting them ihat privilege under ain conditions. The steamship company is anxious to retain the present complement of ofticers of those vessels, most of whom, however, are of foreign nationality, and in order to brinz them within tno law requiring vessels of the Unitea States 10 bo ofticered exciusively by citizeus of the Uniten States, the conpanies took steps to sccure toeir speedy naturalization, “This, however, is a ve The ofticers in question b out their first papers, but nave to serve out the full_probationary period before they be- come full-fleaged citizens.

Accoraingly as a test case, applicution will be made to tne Treasury department for reteation of Cap- tain Watkins as master of tue City of Paris during bis probational period of naturaliza- tion.

Senator Allison has prepared a supples mental statement about the appropriations of this cong , 10 be printed fu tho last issuc of the Congressional Record, probably ‘Tuesday morring of this weok. I had an ine terview with the senator this afternoon on the subject of the appropriations, a subjeck of particular interest to the public, becausa of the part played by the “blllion dollar congress” cry in the last campaiga, and because of the excess of tho appropriations of tho first session of this congress ovor those of the (lirst session of tho last congress, famiiiarly known in democratie circles as the *“billion dollar congres: *“Tho savings made by this congross,” said Senator Allison, “or what thoy call savings, are found only in reduced appropriations for rivers and harbors; for the construction of tho tortilications, und, of course, fewer deficiencies because of the suficiency of former appropriations. These are the only items of importance in tho regular bilis, We made some extraordinary appropr: ations two years ago which were counted against ug, such as the five or six millions for the consus, the refund of tho directtax and large aporopriations for the construction of the nav, GroN Bukeav or Tie Bee, } How the Case Stands, “Many of those appropriations are not yot oxpended and so the work goes on without sumilar appropriations at this session. But this congress has made no reductions worth considering in any of the great departments of the government or upon any of the great bills other than 1 have suggestod. The same logislative expenses have been provided for the Agricultural departmont, tho samo for the army and for the regular conduct of tha navy, for West Point and the Indian service. "Thoro have boen increases in the approprins tions for postal service, so that the demo- cratic party having scrdtinized anew all of these appropriations justifies tho appropria- tions of tuo last congress and clearly shows that no great reductions can be made in the zonoral orainary expeuses of the governs ment, “They say that these lucroases of appro- printions were necessary bocause of the laws of the lnst congress and thoy quoto the pen- sion net and the sugar bounty law, yot thoy do not proposo the repcal of tho pension laws or of the sugar bounty." Mr. Aliison said that e did not consider the appropriations of the present session of ocons ss 00 all excossive. ‘Thera might ba small items which were extravagaat, ho said, but they were too small and composed too small un aggregato to bo enumerated. No Large Deficioncl The deficioncies of this year, the unpaid debts of the last congress, ho said, were not large; in fact they weve not so' large s usual. ““Tliere was & doficiency i public print- ing,” said Mr. Allison, *and_in tho dopart- metit of justice and sundry deticiencios here und theve, but the aggrezate was not larce. ‘Ihere are always unforeseen expendituros which have to be met iu this way.” Iu auswer to a question Mr. Allisou said that he expected that the appropriations of the next sexsion of congross would be greator than thoso made at this sessicn. Tho natural incroase in tho business of the country, tagether with the 1ncrease in the pension ap- propriutions which was to bo expected under the existing law and the inoreaso in the postal expenses, made it almost inevit- able that tho appropriations would be in- creased, Mr. Allison leaves Washington tomorrow afternoon for bis home in lowa. He expects 1o return east early in September to make some campaign speeches in Maine and he may spend a part of the month on the Maine coast. Ho has no other campaign engage- ments and he will speud October in Iowa. Miscellancous. T. 8. Clark of Omaha is av the American, C. G.
