II. tM'unt lands have all tieen checked mid forwarded to Washing ton for payment. The total amount due on March 1, VM7, was $1,700, 000. This includes penalties, inter ests and costs. ''The money was appropriated by congress to pay these taxes and it was the wish of the secretary of the interior and the commissioner of the genera) land office to pay them at the earliest possible date. Such early aetion was made impossible, however, owinj; to the stand taken by the rail road eompnny. It contends that the tax is illegal and should not be paid. It claims that from July 1, VM'.i, the date of Jmljre Wolverton's first de cree, (he lands were out of the con trol of the company and were not thereafter subject to assessment and taxation. "Owiiitf to this stand of the railroad company, the government felt obliged to await the final determination of (he questions involved in the case now before the supreme court of the I'nited Stales. If this decision is fa vorable to the government, and the (inmbertain-I'Yrris bill upheld, I he secretary of the interior will undoubt edly proceed with the payment of tho taxes, regardless of the protest of the railroad company. If tho de cision is favorable to the railroad company t lie counties will have to Mole to it for payment and in view of its content ion that the assessment was unlawful, and void it is very ap parent that the counties will have a law suit on their hands and m money will be received until the quest ion has Jieen decided by the highest court in the land. "In view of this situation every one interested in seeing the early payment oi'Ihe.se claim's; should piny for the success "of tile overnuient.'' 0BITUARY.

AMERICAN SHIP SUNK. (Continued Prom Pago One.) ploded and within a quirter of an hour the steamer ills inpeared. "I appealed to tho submarine coni- mnndor for a tow towards land, In view of the roughness of the weather, but the Ctcrii-in replied, yruffly: 'No, I am too bi'Tj.'.' " (WASHINGTON, March 11. In the absence of official dispatches on the sinking of tho steamer Algonquin officials withheld comment but the unofficial view was that nothing in the incident concerns the situation between tho United States and tier many. President Wilson nlready has taken steps to place the nation in a state of armed neutrality, which with the breaking off of diplomatic- relations with Germany is practically tho last measure possible- short of war. Am erican ships now are being armed to defend themselves against unlawful submarine attack. The general view today is that arming of ships is the only nnswer to submarine operations short of a declaration of war, which may be made only by congress. V. II.
