J 0 h i TWENTY THIRD YEAR he Order Must Stand Washington Dec 21 It has been re ported here thvl indignation prevails throughout southwestern Nebraska over tho presidents roeent order abolishing tho land ollico at McCook after January 11 Tho claim is made that tho ueod for this ofiico ib as groat as over since fully 90 per cent of the homestead entries are yet lacking and lie west of MoCook In terest in tho matter is also intensified by tho report that the office was abolished because of some complaints which were filed in tho eneral land ofiico last sum mer against P M Kathbun the register and C W Barnes tho receiver It was learned at tho white house to day that the president merely complied with tho law when he discontinued tho McCook office According to the law whenever tho expenses equal one third of the total revenue of a land ofiico and whenever the public lands in a district are reduced to less than 100000 acres tho president and the secretary of tho interior may order such ofiico abolished Although tho fees of the McCook ofiico for the last two quarters show an oxcess over maximum salaries to the officials the remaining public lands in the dis trlct fall short of tho minimum acreage necessary to continue the office The law also provides that when a land office is located at a state capital tho unfinish ed business of an abolished office shall be sent there for completion For this reason unfinished business of McCook will go to tho office at Liucoln Congressman Norris stated tonight that tho land office at Sidney Nebr would also be abolished within a few months Tho general land office is investigat ing the complaints against Kathbun and Barnes The nature of them are not known Entries to lands in Nebraska under the Kinkaid act has necessitated the employ of additional clerk hire in tho land office at Alliance Senator Millards secretary was notified today by the department that thi5 additional hire miij bo continued for thirty days Government

the President W A Richards Commissioner of the General Land office Workmen Adjusted Rates Norfolk Neb Dec 24 According to the January number of the Nebraska Workman just being issued in this city the Nebraska jurisdiction of the Ancient Order of United Workmen has just avert ed seceding from the supreme lodge The compromise was effected when tho supreme lodge through a committee agreed to allow Nebraska to have its own way with regard to guaranty fund rates instead of adopting rates which had been set down by the supreme lodge and which would have greatly increased the expense of the jurisdiction in this state With the alternative of either paying the rate or withdrawing from the na tional order staring them in the face members of the Nebraska jurisdiction were pretty general in favor of withdraw ing at the meeting of the grand lodge to be held in South Omaha next May A few days ago however a committee of the supreme lodge met officers of the Ne braska lodge at Lincoln and the result was the granting of Nebraskas every wish so that rates henceforth will be lower than they have been before Remnants All dress goods remnants from the fall seasons dress goods business have

the amount of taxes ten dered to them by Tax Commissioner Pollard up to December the 23 says the Lincoln Star These payments were ac cepted merely on account A mistaken idea appears to prevail that the tax commissioner insisted upon his proffer being accepted as full pay ment or he would refuse to pay anj thing To correct this idea Mr Pollard re cently sent the following letter to all of the county treasurers who have tax claims against tho Burlington Dear Sir You have undoubtedly been served with order issued by Hon W H Munger Judge of the United States court in regard to the taxes of this company for the year 1904 I stated to you when making the tender that you could have the amount tendered at any time as wo do not wish to keep your county the school districts villages etc out of what we consider a fair tax indefinitely Judge Mungers order reads as fol lows And it is further ordered that the ac ceptance by the defendants of any ten der made by the complainant herein shall in no way or manner effect or pre judice any of their rights If you wish to accept this amount tondered please so advise me and I will remit at once Your tax receipts can show on ac count or in part
