MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS Land Commissioner Richards Annual Report. Iu bis furthcoming annual report, Laud Commissioner Richards will pre sent a forceful argument in favor of the radcal modification of tho timber ad stous act. Ho builds his argu ment upon the showing of rapidly in creasing timber entries iu late years. Out of 1U, 74 1, 10 acres of public lauds entered during thu past year, 1,760,222 wore covered by timber en tries, or more than thruo times the area of timber entries iu tho preced ing year. This growth is thu bo tter appreciated when it is kuowu that iu the 25 year the timber and stone acts bavubcen operative less than 7,000,000 acres all tuld, liavo bueu entered un der its provisions. Oommissiuuer Richards objects to the timber and stouo act because it allows eutryiuco, largely simulators, to acquire for 12. to au acre land that are oasily worth f 100, so ho says. "Whououu observes the character of claims that are being Hied,, " said Commissioner Richards, "little urgu moot is u (loili'd to convince him that these lands are being taken tip fur the benefit of syndicates and coriHiratioiis and not thu Individual claimants. For example, a carload of people will leavo Micliigitn, cross the continent and scatter iu the hills of Oregon, Immediately we will receive cliilmi. for WO acres of land, tlio number of claims corrospoudliig exactly with the number of msscngcr thut boarded the west hound tain.

Hy chance it became the duty of this same detect ive a few days later to take the bank wrecker into custody. Policemen who knew of the terrible scoring the offi cer had received from Andrews looked for a bitter retaliation in the way of wordy recrimination, but nothing of the kind occurred. The officer was po lite and deferential in making the ar rest, almost as much so as if he were taking orders r.om his mperior in stead of conveyiig him to jail. "I'm really sorry to f. this, Mr. Andrews," he said, "but It's jny duty." There was a sting in these simple words, how ver, that the bystanders did not ap preciate, for in the scoring the detect ive had received from Andrews while police commissioner great stress was laid upon the necessity of a policeman doing his duty without fear or favor. CONFISCATION IN MOROCCO. When an Offlelal Dies Hie Property ml That of nil llrlatlvea H rte to the Crown. It is a custom in Morocco that all the property of an official revert at death to the crown. The logic which leads to such a result la simple, for the gov ernment argues that all fortunes thus accumulated consist of moneys illegal ly retained by the authorities, says Itlackwood's Maga.ine. A governor when appointed is probably possessed of no considerable fortune. When he dies he may be a millionaire. Whence came this wealth? Squeezed most cer tainly from the tribes under his au thority, nnd therefore aninssed only by the prcr gativea of the position in w-hhdi the sultan had placed him. It has nuver struck the Moorish govern ment thnt these great fortunea might more honorably be returned to the people from whom they were stolen. The result is entire confiscation tothe c:ov.n, including often such private property as his governor may have In en po5Feshed of before his appoint ment, and not seldom, too, of the prop erty of his relatives. When the mighty fall in Morocco the crash brings down with them their families, even uncles and cousins and all connected with them, and it is not Mddoni that the sona of great govern ors, who have been brought up in the luxuries ef slaves and horses and ret inues of mounted men, have to go beg ging in the streets.

Mar No Mors Than Ten Cent to It MCMUd Half War Arouad the World. It ts rather needlea to say that Mar coni's splendid demonstration of trans-oceanic signaling means, in tl e near future, a big reduction in ennle tolls. Mnreoni himself says that cent a word U within hight. I'.ut even tliirt la a purely arbitrary figure. In Eng land, where the public telegraph is not run to enrirh rich people, it is popaiblw to send a 12-word tr.essnge ::nywheie in the kingdom for sixpence. There is no good reason why. with healthy com petition, a 20-word nie!s,. from New York to London, Paris or Manila should not be sent and delivered for a dime; or. for that matt er. :i nywhere in the United States, says Cur! Snyder in the monthly tteview of IN'mcwk. The first cont it. small A wiieb'ss telegraph station is more cot'ii licnted than an ordinary Morse station, and costs more. Ibtt. needing neither cables, wires, insulators, m-r poles the stations nre practically the whole of the expense Such an installation nt those of the Marconi company on board the ocean ships probally costs between $200 and $3nn, at retail. The largest expense is a good induct: n coil, which, for a 12-inch spark, costs between $150 and $200; the rert of the apparatus, any clever mechanic, once he has seen it ami read the descrip tions, of which the scientific journals teem, can rig tip for himself. And the field is free. The Hhower of patents has been large; Sig Mar coni alone has taken out 112. Hut they relate chiefly to minor Improvements and special devices, which, while doubtless often of individual value, are not a block, to others to try their hand. If, for example, Hrof. Hranly had pat ented his discovery, ami had applied it to the reception of signals himself, instead of leaving that to Prof Lodge and others, then we might hare, had an other Hell telephone monopoly. As it is. wireless telegraphy has hern made possible by men who do not take out patents, and whose work is not done for money. HOW SHE RAISED THE FEE. Thn lirlS.
