Not only will the government ask the court to declare valid its title to the land, but it also will seek recover ies for all the oil which is said to have been withdrawn, the exact quantity o f which must be developed by the suit. The proceedings in Los Angeles, it is understood, will be directed against all those who have claimed or still claim title to the land, those who have extracted the oil and those who have purchased it. The Interior department has refused to grant patents on any of the lands. There are said to be many conflicting claims among the persons who base their contentions upon placer mining locations. An agreement, the terms of which are said to be secret, is declared to have been entered into in May, 1911, purporting to settle the conflicting claims by which the Maricopa North ern Oil company, National Pacific Oil company, Midway Northern Oil com pany received full possession of the whole tract, a quarter section of land in Kern county, California, with rights to develop the land and extract the oil. These companies are said to be in possession of the land. Large quantities o f oil are alleged to have been sold or otherwise distrib uted to the Standard Oil company and Tarr & McComb, Inc. The claims to the lands are illegal and the extraction o f the oil was wrong, according to the government. which it owned, because, ‘ ‘ prudence” would prevent officers of a bank from accepting too much doubtful security, and that no further law was neces sary. “ Too much law,” he said, “ can crush the life out o f a bank.” “ I believe in individual freedom,” he said. “ I f an individual goes too far, the laws of nature would inter fere. The first great attempt at mon opoly was the tower o f Babel. That fe ll o f its own weight. Every indi vidual monopoly would do the same when it reached that point.” “ Have you ever thought what would happen while such a monopoly was growing and whent it had fallen o f its own weight?” “ No, 1 never thought of that,” an swered Mr. Schiff. F R A N C E ELECTS N E W RULER Poincare Is Chosen After Stormy Session by Assembly. Washington, D. C.— Liberty o f in dividuals to concentrate money and power to the limit o f their ability was advocated before the house money trust investigation committee by Jacob H. Schiff, o f the firm o f Kuhn, Loeb & Co. Mr. Schiff declared individuals should be allowed to exert their ut- Versailles, France— Raymond Nich olas Landry Poincare, for the last 12 months premier of the French cabinet, was elected president of the Republic of France, by the national assembly, composed of the members of both chambers of parliament, to succeed President Armand Fallieres, whose seven-year term expires February 18. Great confusion, out o f which arose two challenges to duels, marked the casting of the ballots. Premier Poincare's selection for the presidency o f France, although made by parliament, as required by the con stitution, is regarded as representing as well the popular will o f the nation. Jules Pams, minister o f agriculture, was Poincare’s nearest competitor. The final ballot stood: Raymond Poincare, 483; Jules Pams, 296; Ma rie Edouard Valliant, 69. Poincare’s first words on receiving notification o f his election w ere: “ I shall try to show myself worthy o f the confidence o f the national assembly. I shall forget without effort the strug gles o f yesterday and even the in juries. Be convinced that I shall seek in everything and at all times to be an impartial administrator.” Farm Bill Moves Ahead. Washington, D. C. — The Lever- Smith agricultural extension bill, which already has passed the house and received the approval o f the sen ate committee on agriculture, was taken up for consideration by the sen ate. The measure got through the first parliamentary stages, when it was withdrawn by Senator Hoke Smith that the senate might go into executive session. Senator Page, of Vermont, who drafted the vocational education bill, offered his measure as a substitute for the bill. Castro Applies fo r Bail. New York— Another application for the release o f Cipriano Castro under bonds pending final decision as to his right to enter the United States was made recently before the Federal dis trict court. The renewal o f this mo tion was made because the Venezuelan case is now before the Department of commerce and labor on an appeal from the decision o f the local immigration authorities ordering his deportation. Federal Judge Holt reserved decision. It is believed Castro intends to fight his case indefinitely. Captives Burned Alive. Lisbon, Portugal— An insurrection has broken out in Angola, Portuguesse West Africa, and dispatches received relate that the natives have committed many atrocities. They raided settle ments, killing the inhabitants and pil laging property. Several European women were carried off by the insurg ents and four men captives were burn ed alive. The governor o f the col ony has sent an expedition to suppress the insurrection. Cruelty Bar to Marriage. Sacramento— “ I f a man beats one w ife he shall never have another,” if Senator Hans, o f Fruitvale, has his way. Senator Hans introduced a bill in the state legislature providing that when a man is divorced for cruelty and it is shown that he kicked, beat, struck, whipped or otherwise by force treated his w ife cruelly, the judge shall adjudge him a wife-beater and he shall be prohibited from remarry ing in this state. no l im it to w ealth Banker Schiff Declares Laws of N a ture Are Sufficient.

It Is said on good authority that the dance originated in j one of the little villages of Bohemia. ' where a servant, tiring of her work in the kitchen, thought to make tt lighter by dancing around the kitchen and singing at the same time. The mis- I tress of the house overheard her and" called her into the parlor, where she was asked to dance the peculiar step over again. A musician by the name of Nernda was present and he some time later wrote music for the Btep. The name polka comes from the Cxech language, meaning half step. In 1839 the polka was Introduced into Vienna and it made a great suc cess. The writers of the popular mu-d sic of the day adapted it lmmedlat|^'i to their work. The polka was danced.
