MILLION DOLLARS THE STAKES Big Contest is on at Land Office between Gov ernment and N. P. Railway Company. One million dollars at the least estimate is the value of the land which the Northern Pacific will city, Idaho, is decided in the favor of the government, according to the estimate of F. M. Goodwin, speial agent of the general land office. For the past week and a half five men have been sitting around a rough table in the ante room of the receiver's office at Coeur d'Alene city, spitting tobacco in a common box and playing for these tremendous stakes with as loose if the contest case which has just been heard at Coeur d'Alene little concern as the corner grocery sbo « sil1 declaring war «11 Eng >d. m. T. Saunders of St. Paul, assisted by Thomas Coonev, who Lus made a personal examination of thu lands in dispute, is opposed in this great game by G. B. Gard ner, attorney for the government, o.F.jûssisted by A. J. Collier, govern ment geologist, and F. M. Good win. Twenty-eight witnesses were produced by the government to off set the evidence of a half dozen called by the Northern Pacific, these men succeed in If convincing the secretary of the interior, to whom the case will ultimately go, that the land in question is non mineral in character, the Northern Pacific will be $1,(XX),000 richer. F. M. Goodwin said yesterday: 'By the grant of land to the North I lie law isthesameas it always was, hut it is now being strictly interpreted. Formerly a claimant \ J , . Went before the general COIlimiS Kioncv to make final proof of hiJ land after having been tliero OIllv once in six months. 'Have von made continuous residence them?' the commissioner would ask. .j have never been absent for bix Must live on Homestead Land. months,' the claimant would ans wei. 'Well, then,' said the com missioner, 'that is continuous res idence.' But that is not continuous residence now. For the past year special agonis of the department have had supervision of final proof, and they are in a position to know 1 more about the lands than the commissioner, and can croesexam j inc a claimant in any manner they 1 wish. "A man must actually proof that | he has made his home on the land for five years before he will ho al lowed to make final proof. If a man has a family in Spokane, or j has sufficient residence here to j vote, and goes to his homestead once in a while, his residence is in ] Spokancand no amount of juggling with facts will make him a resident of the homestead. I "Tho only effect filing on land land building a house there has is to j keep some one else from taking it up; it will not give a man the right to make final proof and get 1 title to the land, which he must do in seven years. No one will get I land now unless he is a bona fide It is not fair to a man who goes out and develops a conn-! 1 try to have a man from town, who ! . settler. comes out once in six months, get ! j ust as good property as he does.'' i — F. M. Goodwin, special agent of die Interior Department. —An epidemic of typhoid is j prevalent in and around Sandpoint l at lhu V™ tin,u - I)r - Pa 8 c « ; four cases nt the nun* brick yard at the Great Northern, being Mr. Mergv and his daughter, Mrs. 1 Pease, Fred Matson and William Anderson. Charles Hutson of the Hunt brick yard is also ill with the malady, as is Nellie Mathews, four (miles west of town, a Fredericks«!!

North-1 in 1 Ian. ^ vv . ern Pacific it was given every odd section within 40 miles of the right of way, with the exception of min oral lands. Where lands are min jeral the railroad does not get lieu selections for them. Therefore, if this region is declared mineral the Northern Pacifie is out that much, On the other hand, if the land is declared to he more valuable for [ timber and agriculture than for {its minerals, it will mean to the railroad if 1,000,000. With the exception of two townships all this region, consisting of over 250,000 acres, is included in the proposed Shoshone forest reserve. If the land is awarded to the railroad it will have the privilege of taking other lands in lieu of these put in the reserve. I have been inves-1 ligating and have found that the Northern Pacific has been in the habit of charging from *5 to $10 for its lieu selections. There is plenty of nnsclected land, left in the public domain from which the railroad could choose. "In the matter of setiling the public domain, the department is now much more strict than it used to be. Before final proof can be made on any homestead the claim ant must show that he has actually lived continuously on the land for five years, and continuous residence is taken to mean exactly what it says. Going on the land once in six months will not suffice. L 0. 0. F. GRAND LODGE Fivo Hundre d Delegates gatherrd at tewiston this Week. T K * (irmd | lu \ trr n ! in .
