upon the Government and individuals.
Under the act of 4.h September, 1911, the seye-

acres remain TO he located.
The matters connected with Indian reservations
are thor lughly considered and The operations e.
pscialy with reereHf5 10 The ChlckasaW nation,
clearly explained.
The presumption business has been progressing
satisfactorily, and most Of the claims have been
adudicated slight modification Of the act Of
1874 is suggested to remedy existing abuses.
Full instructions have been prepared under The
| acts of Congress granting the swamp lands to the
States and bounty TO the officers and soldiers who

The instructions for a surveyor general OF Ore
gOn provide for a combination of the geOdetiC with

SYSTEM compared with the leasing of hose lands
are ably considered and fully sustained The evils
growing out Of the leasing of the mineral lands in
| Missouri, Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa are de
scribed and it is shown that that system ha'
wholly failed as a source Of revenue that it ha'
been loss pecuniarily 10 the Government, directly
to a considerable sum and indirectly to a mucl
| greater amount and, moreover, that it has beeT
| the fruitful source of litigation and crime.
