Judge Foster says the fanfaronade

he went to Kansas for a ten days' lib
sence lie signed six deeds In blank and
left them with Col. Sehuell who kept
them In his blunts drawer One of

The olllcu hunters are very much dis-
gusted over the fuct that the president
is again out of town and that they are
likely to be forced to tciunin on" the
sulary roll so much lougei th.in they
hud hoped
There Is however a business cotiMd-
oration far above the hunger of the of-
Hue hunters and It comes up In eve y
department. There wus never so 'ti-
tle business done as has been disposed
of by this administration and ueier
were so many department matters
hung up on u nail In the departments
where milters do not rench the presi-
dent there Is an all pervading liilncss
and Inattention to business
They understand that the president
Is doing nothing and the new nlllciiils
appear all uloug the line us favoring
the races and unj thing but business
Any one can name Innumerable mat-
ters that ure simply delayed by Idle-
ness and inattention to business
In the strip and Oklahoma matters
are good examples and they can be
found in the list of local matters that
concern every Mute of the union In
many ways The commissi. iner of the
laud olllce toduyset lire typewriters to
work copying the strip proclamation
It will contain us estimated about llflv
thousand words but only purl of the
data Is ready. It Is stated that ass. mil
as It Is completed It will be sent to the
president for his signature while most
other matters will be postponed
