Tho fever for public land that has
seized so many local residents in its
grip has crossed the ocean and has
rapidly spread inland, even penetrat
ing to the Inmost recesses of Arkan
sas where it has reached the Arltan
raw Egg Farm of Pettlgrow, Arkan
sas. An employe of the egg farm, whoso
nam the aotlng governor did not
give out, has evidently been attacked
by the malady, for this morning Mr.
Mott-Smlth opened a letter bearing tho
Pettlgrow postmark which besought
for Instantaneous news regarding pub
lic lands in Hawaii.
Tho inquirer was especially anxious
to become a small farmer, as ho had
been told that there was untolu wealth
awaiting tho farmer in a small way
who embarks in tho Islands and he
furthermore desired to obtain his land
without coming in person for it, as
ho explained he wished to send his: minor
application and after the drawing to been
havo a proxy choose his land.
The letter has been turned over to
tho land commissioner.
