Lincoln dispatch: There has been 1 considerable curiosity around the state house as to what would be the final outcome of the matter of the warrants drawn by the stute auditor on the state general fund in payment of the 940,000 of bounty claimed by the beet sugar manufacturers from the ptate. The auditor took the ground that al though there was no appropriation for this specific purpose, that since the | secretary of state had certified to him that the soger made had been inspeia . ted and amounted to so much there I was no choice but for him, the auditor, i to issue the warrants under the man datory. The Opponents of tiie bounty it has been supposed would take some action to prevent the payment of the war rants by the state treasurer. Just what this would he has been the sub ject of much speculation. I.ea*«* uu Public I.sml*. Land Commissioner Russell has lately received a great many remittances for leases due on public lands far below the minimum amount, which lie feels 1 disposed to accept for such rents. In good times it is usual forrenters to pay tlie full amount, some JU for each forty ] acres, but lie bus taken as low as l.r» cents per forty. Of late quite a num ber ot renters have sent In amounts Ulinni oil li mt.'Ub UN iun «r* .» uuu 1 cents per forty. The commissioner believes the time has come to draw the line, and has returned these low ren tals witli the statement that It will not do. Many of the petty payments are being made by speculators, which makes the attempt to euchre the stale much more reprehensible. The low payment of lft cents has been uccepted on the supposition that the parties were actual settlers und in no condition at present to make larger payments Hut Nebraska leads Aa uu agricultural state, saya tht tllalr t'ourier, Nebraska leads the union Her soil is better adupted to farming Ilian that of any other state.

Nearly all of them are in favor of Statehood for Okla homa, but there are almost aa many schemes tor attaining it aa there are delegates Ever since Oklahoma was first opened to aettlement there has been an Intense rivalry between the different towns. congress provided that the first legislature of Oklahoma should meet st Guthrie and fix the ter ritorial capital. Then began a fight of the bitterest kind between the dif ferent towns. !/agi*)atures voted th* capital three time* to Oklahoma City and once to Kingfisher, nut Governor Steele vetoed it each time, and the capital remain* at Guthrie. The location of the future capital of Oklahoma as a state will depend largely on the boundary lines o f i Ilf new slate. If a stale ia made of Okla homa with Its present boundaries, Kingfisher or K1 Reno would be near the center and would stand belter chances for the cupltol than either Perry, Guthrie or Oklahornu City, on the extreme eastern edge of the stale. Ho Kingfisher and El Reno favor im mediate statehood of Oklahoma with Its present bounds, and the Perry, Guthrie and Oklahoma City people are against It. Oklahoma City want* a single state made of Oklahoma territory. That would make Oklahoma City the geographical center of the state and put her first in the race for the cap ital. This loeal feeling about the fu ture location of the capital is one of the great element* In the fight for atateiiood and must not be lost sight of by anyone who desire* to under stand the situation here. A large element In the convention will favor the formation of a State out of Oklahornu. with the Chickasaw na tion added, and with a provision for allowing the other nation* of the In dian Territory to come in aa they wish, with the consent of Congress.
