The origin of the charges against Captain
John O. Dourko , Third cavalry , U. S. A. , Is
it lust disclosed , They were lllod with the
W r department by Congressman Grain of
Texas some tlmo ago on behalf of his
'groasor" constituency. Congressman Grain
bus more than 15.000 Mexicans In tils dis
trict , many of whom were with Garia , the
Mexican bandit. In hi * late raid which Cap
tain Bourlto suppressed. The charges ngomt
Bourke originate from the sweet-scented
children of tno border who were vigorously
rounded tip by the captain for aiding and
abetting ar. Insurrection against Mexico from
'tho friendly soil of the United States.
rtio first charge comes , naturally 0110112)1 ) ,
from ono Alexander Oonzalos the father-in
law of the bandit , who claims that Uourke
presumed to arrest Um without warrant ,
slapped him In the face when ho dared to
enter Uouko'.i tent nt midnight nnd used
Homo of the fodder on his farm. This salmon
comploxloncd oldroprobnlo Is notorious on
the bordot as a first-elms scalawag nnd an
abettor of mischief. Ho escaped Bourko's
troopers twice , but when ilnnlly corrnllod ,
was hold in doliancn of the rules of courtesy
as laid dawn by Ward McAllister.
AtlliluvlU ot Other Moxlcnn * .
Other Mexicans in&ko affidavit that ho
used very unpollta language la conducting
bis search for bandits which they were un
doubtedly uttomptlni : to corrall , and that
bouses have bcon entered without warrant
and troops stationed on prlvato property
without consent of the owners.
Congressman Grain's district Is what is
celled in Texas "Lullu. " It is500 miles long
by 400 wide , nnd filled with tarantulas and
Mexicans , cowboys , cactus ana desperadoes ,
with a sprinkling of American citizens. Grain
says that in ono part of it u man must wear n
boutouulero while in the other ho carries a
bowie knife. Captain Bourke was operating
in the bowie knife section rind ho did not
fight with bouquets. General Stanley en
dorses Captain Uourko's campaign in the
heartiest manner , nnd says the captain ban
displayed great tact and Druvcry In his con
duct.

The Nebraska delegation received today
the petition of a largo number of residents
of Boyd county asking that they bo allowed
thn same right to commute homestead
entries In that portion of the coded Stoux
reservation lying In Nouraska as Is ac
corded homesteaders living in the coded
portion lying in South Dakota. These peti

amended in accordance with their prayers.
Senator Mandersoa will introdtico a bill mak

Senator Paddock said today that the ap
parent discrimination arose from the

Boundary and that the committee on public
lands had alreadv referred the question to a

relief asked.
I'ocnlliir Story ot nn loua Alan.
A curious case of discovery of an Iowa
man , long supposed to bu dead , was un
earthed yesterday by tno pension ofllco.
General Grrcnloaf of the Kochcster , N. Y. .
district recently prepared a prlvato relief
bill which will not now Do Introduced nnd
thereby hongs a tale. "The brother of Miss
Boles'n Rochester , N. Y. , school teacher ,
left homo eighteen years ago for the benelit
of his health , being a sufferer from incipient
consumption. Nothing' , was ever heard of
blm and ho was finally given up as dead
fHls aged mother applied for a pension , but
could not prove the death of her son. It was
at this point that Miss Boles applied to Gen
eral Greonleat for assistance and the bill ho
bad prepared was for tbo dependent mother.
Her application was on tile at the pension
ofllco , her son having been a member
of a New York regiment. A few days ago
an application was received at the pension
ofllco from a man named Boles , who resides
in Iowa. It went to the sumo clerk and was
tossed in the sarao pigeon hole with the ap
plication of Mrs. Boles of ItocboUer. The
next day the clerk , in investigating tbo pa
pers , saw that tbo sou , upon whoso death the
application of Mrs. Boles rested , was the
Identical man who was applying lu his own
behalf. General Grconltmf was notified and
the result will be tbo reunion of an aged
mother and a son long supposed to bo dead.
Congratulating Sniiiitor Paddock.
Senator Paddock was deluged today with
telegrams of congratulation over his victory
la passing his pure food bill. They came
from Individuals and organizations alike.
Many came from Nebraska. The bouse com
mittee on agriculture is now bard at work
considering the bill , section by section , and
promise an early report. The farmers al-
llanco members are taking a deep lntoro-.it in
the measure. The light of the corporations
opposing this measure will doubtless bo de
voted to tacking on amendments In the bouse
in order to kill the bill if possible In confer-
once. The opposition in the liouso as in the
senate , will blt > - mam rested from southern
members vrho fear its directs in reducing

Senator Manderson from the military
Ci. committee reported with a favorable recom
mendation the bill which he Introduced a few
days ago to reimburse tbo state of Nebraska
for the money expended In suppressing the
Sioux Indian outbreak In the northern portion
tion of the stnto two years ngo. The bill as
originally Introduced provided for the up.
proprlation of 150,000 to bo paid to the state
on approval of accounts by the War depart
ment. As It was reported back from the
committee the amount U reduced to $ t.OUO ,
which is believed to bo approximately thn
amount expended ty the state government ,
and Instead of referring the claims to the
"War department thov arc referred to the
Treasury department direct. By this means
a great aeal of unnecessary rod tape will be
dispensed with and there will be a more
prompt payment and settlement if tbo bill
hould become u law.

Here Is n capitalization of ever JIO.OOO.OJD ,
the larger proportion of which will bo in
vested in irrigating improvements covering
an area greater in extent than most of the
custom states. Tlicso companies will draw
tnoir supplies of water Irom the 1'latto ,
Loui ) , Niobrara and numberless smaller
rivers and streams. It bus been demon
ulratcd uy competent oneiucors that the
water supply of the i'huto river is practi
cally Inexhaustible in spilo of its shallow
depths und the apparent uncertainty of its
How. By moans of cribs sunk far below the
bed of the stream u supply of water ns cer
tain and as Incxlmstiblo as the great Missis
sippi itself is .secured. This fact has been
amply demonstrated in the construction and
operation of the canal at IConrnoy.
Some of these companies enumerated ubova
have for their object the Irrigation of the
soil , while others propose to furnish water
power for manufacturing oritcrprlsn. Some
will combine the two objects. It wilt bo im
possible to estimate the Immense- and almost
incalculable benefits to arise from the oper
ation of these companies. Manufacturing
enterprise will be stimulated and agricul
tural methods In moro than nno-ualf of tha
state will bo revolutionized. Sections of tno
slate now incapable of supporting but a
small population will furnish homo ? for ten
times tbo number. Irrigation on the magnifi
cent hcalo contemplated by tha companies al
ready organized and those- dauntless to bo cr-
ganlzcd in the future will mono Nebraska
the queen of tbo atrncnltural states ol tha
union.
