Bnn.1 Commissioner of Public Lands and
Uulluings Humphrey was today put In pos-
ostlon of the dotnlls of somostartling frauds
Hint nave tccn porpotrntotl upon the ulato
In connection with tlio leasing of the atuto
Bcbool lands In 1'orklns county. Lust month
12,1)00 ncrcs of school lands that bad boon
forfeited wore placed njjaln on the mtirUot
nna the sale was advertised to tauo iilnco on
the U.tth liibt. Largo tracts of forfoltofl lands
wcro also put on the market on the same days
In other counties. In the nbsonco of iho
commissioner of public lands the county
treasurer Is authorized by law to conduct
ttiQHOlcs. In bis general circular or li > -
BtrucUon ? to tbo county treasurer * Inter-
ostea Commissioner Humphrey explicitly
stated that in all rases where there wcro
two or inoro bidders for tbo snmo ptceo of
land the land was to bo sold at auction to
the ono offering the highest premium above
the (5 ( per cent required by law. In nil cases
\vhoro the partv who bid In a ploco of land
nnd afterwards declined 10 taKe It the land
was to erf to the next lowest bidder and so
on. In Perkins county the county treasurer
cither failed to understand tlio letter ot his
Instructions or ho willfully dUrogardod them ,
ns will bo scon by ruforcnca to u letter lu-
"
colvod today by "tlio commissioner , an extract -
tract from which Is as follows :
llo HID FrnttiU Worn Perpetrated.
"In some mstancns parties who had con
cocted the scheme to lonso certain tracts of
land Mil the premium up ns high a 1700 per
cent , ami after the sale was closed they
came in uncl refused to take the land and
pay the nromlutn' , but handed In the appli
cation of some friend to louse the same at
private Halo. U. II. Prime , deputy county
clerk of Perkins county , bid a premium of
220 nor cent on the southwest quarter and
northeast quarter of section 10-11-10 , and
the same was sold to him at that
bid , After th3 sale wns closed ho wont to
the treasurer and refused to taUo the land.
At the uamo time ho handed In nn applica
tion signed ! ) > ' bis wife to lease tbo land at
private nti for (5 ( per cent only , and
no money accompanied the application.
If bo is allowed to Icaso the land
at private solo the state will bo robboa of
1231. I bid lOOxpcr cent premium on this
% amo land and would have paid the cash for
the snmo loaso. At the tlmo of the sale I
tailed the treasurer's attention to tno fact
jhat all bids on lands should bo accompanied
Dy the cash , but no attention was paid to ' .his
nnd no money was required.
Tuo Moro Similar Cases.
"In another case the cioouty county troas-
i uror bid a nromlum of 1,700 per cent on the
southeast quarter of 10-10-41 nnd H. E.
Goodnll bid 217 per cent on the southeast
. After the Bale
east quarter of 10-10-40.
I bad beau closed thev both refused to tnuo
I the land at the amount bid. Both , however ,
| handed In applications to take the land at
I private sule. Tbo deputy treasurer proposed
I to take the ploco bid upon by Goodall , and
I Goodall was to take the plcco bid upon by
I the deputy. By the transaction the state
I lost between 61,000 and t,5CO. ' '
I Commissioner Humphrey starts for Per-
I Itlns county tomorrow raornlnp to Invcstl-
I sato the matter. If ho finds the information
I In the letter received today to bo correct all
I the leases of the Poiklns county lands will

I cases wburo the law has not been strictly
I complied with the leases will bo cancelled.

It mav bo stated that the above figures do
not include the manufactured products
shipped from this county , as tbo commis
sioner was unable to secure them In tlmo for
publication iu the blonnlal report this year.
They would increase the total very in atori-
ally.
Still After .Mr , Uonllttlu.
Mayor Weir Is still after the o.ilr > of the
absent member of the oxclso board , Mr.
John Doollttlo of Lincoln and Chicago. U
will Do remembered tnat several weeks
since , the worthv mayor lamovoa Mi1.
Doollttlo from his position oti the board
for the reason that he was not n citi
zen of Lincoln. Tbo city council refused to
htivo It thai , war nnd decided tnat tno only
w.ty Mr. Doollttlo could bo displaced from
the board was by the preferment of written
chareu3 nnd n duo trial in ncooidauco with
the provUlonn of the chnrtor. The mayor
has accepted that view of the case ,
and at , the meeting of tbo coun
cil hold last mctu bo caino for
ward with tils cliaruus. Ho alleges that Mr.
Doollttlo has boon cullty of misconduct In
oftlcu , In that ho hai removed his rosldonco
from tha city and has lioen crossly noKllRent
ol his oftljtul duties. According to the opin
ion Klvon by the city attorney the cliarKeh
must bo heard within ten days nnd n nor-
sonnl notice must bo nerved upon Mr. Don-
Ilttlolthln ilvo days of the hearing.
No tiinu has boon sot for the hearing of
the clmrcos nciilnst Mr. Doollttlo. Tbo case
Is a continuation of the atrugulo between
Mayor Weir and the council over the control
of iho police forco. U tbo mayor
ovoutually triumphs ho will roorcanljsa
the force. If ho U defeated the foruo will
lomalu practically us U is. In either event
Lincoln will have to struggle along with a
polioo force entirely too small for the needs
of the city. Thcro is no complaint now of
the carelessness or lack of vitllbnco on the
purtof the present forco. The dupartmont
is doing ovorjrtblni ; It can to suppress law
lessness , but the foroo is cntuoly too small ,
TnU fact Is unlvorially conceded by the
friends of both tbo mayor and the council Ic
the present contest.
Improving tlio Wuter Sfitam ,
The water works system will bo Improved
br the immcdlnto construction of a ncn\
atandpipo with a capacity of 500,000 gallons
at the comer of Twenty-third and Boutl
r streets. The Improvement was authorize ! ,
by tbo oity qouucil last ovoeinR am
work will bo commenced as soon u :
the necossarv contracts can bo lot. Tbo nov
standplpc will oo 100 feat lu holjjht and Iiuv
a dlamotor of twenty-five foot. It will b
ten toot higher than the old pipe at the I
street pumping station aud consequently I
is estimated that the pressure in the busmos
portlou of the city will bo double what U I
at present. The pressure now Is scarcol ,
forty pounds , but Commissioner Porclvu
states that tlio naw pice will Rlvo a pressur
ol t l a t ulaety pauadi. The
of the new standplpo will enable the city to
do away with the necessity of operating the
F street station , and tbo saving to the city
in consequouco will bo nearly $5,000 pe'r
annum.
