PRESIDENT ON PUBLIC LANDS
thief Kseratlae'a "Message lo ton
areas Advocates Revision of
Preaeat Laws.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 13.-A second par
tial report of the public lands commission
was sent to congress today by President
Roosevelt, who In his letter of transmittal,
say the report, seems "to require a radical
revision of most of the law affecting the
public domain If we are to secure the best
possible use of the remaining public lands
by actual home makers."
Tile president's letter folluws:
I submit herewith the second partial re
port of the Public Loud commission, ap
pointed by me October 22. 1H08. to report
upon the condition, operation and effect of
the present land laws and to recommend
such changes as are needed to effect the
largest practical disposition of the public
lands to actual settlor who will build
homes upon them nnd to secure Ir. perma
nence the fuller t and most effective use
of the resources of the public lands.
The subject Is one of such magnitude
and Importance that I have concluded to
submit this second partial report bearing
on some of the larger features which re
iiulre Immediate attention without wait
ing for th tinnl statement of the conimis
slim, which, from the very nature of the
case. It has not been possible to complete
at this time. I am In full sympathy with
the general conclusions of the commission
In substance anil In essence, and I commend
Its recommendation to your earnest and
favorable consideration. The existing con
ditions as set forth in thl report seem
to require a radical revision of most of the
laws affecting the public domain. If we are
to secure the best possible use of the re
maining public lands by actual home
in kers.
The report Is signed by V. A. Richards,
land commissioner; F. H. Newell of the
goologlcal survey and Glfford Plnchot,
chief of the bureau of forestry. In h suin
mury of it recommendation the report
says the conclusions are based oh a broad
general view of the public land situation,
not on specific case. Among other things
the commission sajs:
The present laws are not suited to meet
the condition of the crowing nubile do
main. The agricultural possibilities are
unknown. Provision should he mude to
ascertain them, and pending such ascer
tainment, to hold, under government' con
trol and In trust for auch use. the lands
llkclv to he developed by actual settlers.
The right to exchange lanos in forest
reserves for lands outside should be with
drawn.
Provision should be made for the our-
chase of needed private lands inside forest
reserves, or for the exchange nf such
lands ror speclnert tracts or IlKe area miner
value outs'do the reserves.
The report renews It recommendation
for the repeal of the timber and stone acts,
and asks that the sale of limber for unre
served public lands should be authorised.
The commutation clause of the homestead
act Is found on examination to work badly.
Three years' actual residence should be re
quired before commutation.
The desert land law is found lo lead to
hind monopoly In many cases. The area of
a desert ejitry should be reduced to not ex
ceeding 100 acre. Actual residence for not
less than two years should be required,
with the actual production of a valuable
crop on one-fourth the area and proof of an
adequate water supply.
The commission opposes the Immediate
application of any rigid system to all graz
ing lands, but recommend that the presi
dent should be authorized to Bet aside, graz
ing districts by proclamation,, said districts
to bo under the control of the secretary of
agriculture.' ' The summary concludes with
ttiirKtntemeflt:.-, " ; .
The fundamental fact that characterizes
the situation under the D resent public land
law-Is this that the number of patent la
med Is increasing out or all proportion to
the inimber of ne homes. .

OMAHA'S FAMEJS SPREADING
Grain Market Becomes Kaows
Throughout Length and Breadth
of the Land.
For fiO.OOO Omaha could not have got as
good and as general advertising as it ha
received through the present grain rate
war. This I the statement attributed to
a Kansas City man who was In Omaha a
day or two ago, and tho opinion Is gen
eral among Omaha grain men and shippers
that this la a fact. The eastern papers
never before paid any attention to Omaha
as a grain market and It was considered
very little in the matter of rates from any
other pojnt of view. Chicago, Minneapolis
and Kansas City were Inclined to assume
an elderly, wise tone when speaking of
the local market, and their notice, what
little there was of It. was of a patronising
nature. Wise and well Informed persons
all over the country, of course, recognized
the posnlbllltlea of Omaha aa u grain center,
but they were in the minority, and the
general public gave the city little attention.
Now, the local patriots figure, the city
of Omahu Is discussed over the breakfast
table and In the grain offices and the
places whero rates are tnado. Not alone
do they feel this true In the United
States, but also lu European ports. The
fact thut the eastern seaboard cities, to
gether with Chicago, are making such a
fight for corn from Omaha against the gulf
ports, which are making such a fight for
It, seem to be the best scheme for ad
vertising which has been devised. The
rate, as they have been put in by one
action or the other, have been announced
In the paper of the cities along the lines.
These include a large part of the commer
clnl and shipping centers of the country.
The rates from Omaha to the European
port have been announced and printed in
American papers and In foreign commer
cial sljeets. All of these were from Omaha
to the point of publication. In this way
men who have the Interests of Omaha feel
the nanio of the city has been made much
more familiar all over the world than It
was, and If that Is not advertising, they
ask, what la?

by a patrolman In front of Wilson's bakery,
107 Cuming street.' That is, he stood pat
until Officer Flake of the patrol wagon
crew released fox from Ilia Icy bond that
held the Yankton man fast to the bakery.
Then Fox was for annihilating the police
department. Fox's case was one of the
strangest that has tome within the noiire
of the 'polh-e for a long time. It stnyds
Unique In the annals of local police records.
To all Intents and purposes Fox sought
refuge while waiting for a car over a
grating of the bakery. The last car had
already passed over the rails, but Fox
did not know this. He waited and waited.
It Is said of Fox that he had taken unto
himself generous po'lons of soporific liquids
at nearby taverns. The escaping steam
fronthe bakery gathered around the man's
feet and caused them to stick to the
grating. He leaned hi head against the
side of the building end his hair became
attached to the bricks. He stood pat.
After some difficulty he was released hy
the officers and taken to the city Jnll, where
he was charged with being drunk and re
sisting an officer. All the way down to
the station In the patrol wagon Fox
wanted to know why his slumbers had
been disturbed In such a rude manner.
He was fined $5 and cost In police court.

BOY RESPECTS HIS PARENTS
Jadge Day Considers This Factor In
Favor of Paul Pfelffer In - -Pasalna;
Sentence.
Taul Pfeiffer, 18 yqais old, stood before
Judge Day Monday, ufternoon with teara
111 his eyes while ,h,e,: deliberated . as .to
whether or not hu should plead guilty to
the i charge of burglnryt He had been
brought Into court three times before on
the r understanding that he . would enter
such a plea, but each time hud balked.
This time he had mae up his mind, evi
dently, and after a moment's' deliberation
said: "I guess I'd- better admit It."
County Attorney Slabaugh recommended
the prisoner for clemency and Attorney
Kubat, appointed by the court to defend
him, added his plea.' He said he had
learned that the boy Is of respectable par
entage, that hi" respect and regard for his
parents la as strong as ever, but that he
hud given way to temptation when he found
himself a stranger In the town and without
money. The property stolen was of small
value, the principal offense being the break
ing and entering of a carpenter shop on St.
Mary's avenue.
Judge Day sr)oke words of kindly admoni
tion to young Pfelffer before sentencing
hlni. "I am sorry," said the judge, "that
I cannot send you to the reform school,
but as you are over 18 the law does not
permit mo to 'do that. You do not look
like a vIclAus boy, and since you still honor
you" parents In your thoughts this one
mistake, though a very serious one, should
not count too strongly agalnHt you. Seeing
that you have served some time In the
county Jail I will only sentence you to one
year In the penitentiary, sentence to date
from January 1. By behaving yourself
there you can further shorten your time
and In a few months you can go home and
forget and live down this unfortunate chap
ter In your life. I sincerely hope you will
do this, and If you do so there Is nothing
to pi event you from becoming a good citi
zen when you become of age."
Young Pfelffer thanked the court with a
glance of gratitude for the friendly talk
and went out with the deputy sheriff half
smiling through hi tears.

CATTL.K It could scarcely be said thut.
there -was a cuttle market heretoday, as
receipts only amounted to about twenty-one
cars. The majority of the roads had In no
trains ut all. and those that did run trains
only brought in a few cars. But even if
the trains had been running It is doubtful
If receipts would have been heavy, as the
severe cold of yesterday would have kept
most shippers from loading stock.
There were just a few cars of beef steers
Included in the offerings, and as all tho
buyers needed some to take care of their
Immediate trade, the market ruled active,
with prices mostly ltnuifip higher. Some
fair cattle sold for $4.75 and HS0. It took
but a few minutes for everything to change
hands, as the prices offered looked good to
salesmen. Even the commoner kinds sold
at very , satisfactory prices as compared
with those paid last week.
The cow market also ruled active and
mostly 10c to 15c higher. When the trains
reiwrted had arrived buyers went out nnd
took everything In sight and the market
was over with in a very few minutes. The
common kinds, as well as the more desir
able grades, sold freely at the advance.
Bulls, veal calves and stags could all he
quoted strong wlih safety, though there
were hardly enough offered to test values.
Stockers and feeder seemed to be a
drug on the market. There were several
cars on sale and none of the speculators
seemed to be at all anxious for them.
They .Igured that the extreme Cold weather
would keep buyers at home, and beside
that until transportation facilities Improve
it Is almost impossible to ship anything.
The market could probably bept ?e de
scribed by calling it slow to unevenly
lower. Representative sales:

HOGS There were only seventeen cars
of hogs reported this morning, ho that u
very thorough teat of values was Impossi
ble. Reports from other points were fa
vorable to the selling Interests, and aa a
result the tendency of prices was upward
here. The market could be quoted Jnst
about or higher than Saturday's average.
Most of the hogs sold from 84.80 to ItllB.
Light weights could be quoted from it. SO
down, butchers and mixed hogs 14.80 to
$4.85. and heavies from $4.85 to $4.95.
This advance carries the marxet to the
highest point readied since November 11
