CDS! ~ V ~ V " T By Our Regular Washington Correspondent T V Every Pair of Shoes in Ladies’ and Mens’ in all Grades, It seems to be difficult, if not im possible, for this administration to perform any official act that does not, directly or indirectly, open the way for a gang of thieves to profit ■i^tltWtexponse of honest men. Tho ink was not dry on the proclamation Good S h o e s a t for tho opening to settlement of tho Indian reservations in Oklahoma before the thieves had discovered a way to profit under the regulations Como in and See for Yourself. provided for tho opening and started the machinery for doiug so. The machinery was ready before tho proclamation, as it bus been known for some time that honorably dis charged soldiers, sailors, and marines would be allowed to enter homesteads through an agent, whilo others could only do so iu person, and the general land laws gives ex soldiers ami sailors credit for tho time they served in the army tr navy iu counting the time necessary for residence on a homestead claim in order to acijuiro title, while all others must reside thereon for five years. That was all the land pirates, who are plentiful iu Wash ington, wanted to know. They be gan hunting up the records of the honorably discharged soldiers and sailors, with three or more years service to their credit, and to make deals with them to have homestead entries made in their names, and as soon as the proclamation was issued they began telegraphing tho names of these bogus homesteaders to their agent« iu Oklahoma, who will file the applications. Those applications which drew desirable land in the lottery to be held next month the pirateb will hold on to by purchas ing the claim of the soldier or sailor in whose name it is registered. One citizen of Oklahoma— Mr. Tho-«. F.

SOME FACTS. O TH ER There has been a great deal writ ten from time to time upon the prospects and probable outlook for the Bohemia mines. This is not only so with Bohemia, but so with all other mining camps of any note. Glowing write-ups of rich discov eries, scuantional stories of fabulous finds and wonderful assays have too frequently found their way into public priut for the good, not only of the camps themselves, but for the good of the people at large. Every mining camp has hud to outlivo these kind of booms and Bottle down to hard work and steady develop ment before any great amount of good has been accomplished. We believe Bohemia lias passed through this stage of the game and is now getting down to a more solid basis. If it has there is no reason to doubt the camps permanency. The zeal and energy displayed by the differ ent mine owners and prospectors throughout the camp, who aro say- ng but little and working bard de veloping their claims and preparing for a long and steady pull, speaks volumes for Bohemia. The occa sional salo of good property at a fair figure to large companies shows a confidence in'the camps possibilities that outweighs all the cock and bull stories of fabulous finds that find their way into priut, so far us men of means are concerned, and that such men more readily tako hold of min ing property after careful investiga tion into a well developed claim than they do of the boomer’s pros pect whose only showing is found on the certificate of a rich assay, goes without saying. We believe Bohemia is on the road to success at last and there is more renauu s* rejoice at the camp’ s prospect today than ever before. Strong efforts are being mndo by the big interests behind the publica tions, fako and otherwise, that are getting tho benefit of the $30,000,- 000 a year the government loses by carrying at second class rates publi cations not entitled to be In that class, to frighten Postmaster Gen eral Smith into not issuing the an nounced order defining moro strict ly tho requirements to bo exacted of publications carried for one cent a pound. Mr. Smith says tho order will be issued, and thnt it will accomplish its purpose, but it will be just as well to wait and see be fore giving liim credit for possessing the-courage to resist the influences which desire to go on profiting at the people’s loss. If it l.e the real thing, the country will know it.
