Right of Pre-emptors to File More
 than Once.

Hon. S. s. Burdett, Commissioner of the General Land Office, addressed the Regis ter and Receiver at Humboldt, California, as follows on June 29, 1874:
 Gentlemen; Referring to the registers letter of May %, 1874, in reference 10 the case of Thomas J. Whitlow. have. to say that by the decision of the Supreme Court Ot the United States at the Decem Der term of 1871, in the case of Johnson ys Townsley Q3 Wallace, page 72,) the fourth section of the act of March 3, 1S43, concerning two declaratory statements by the same pre-emptor, is confined to pre-emptions upon land subject to private entry.
 It is, therefore, held by this office, 1st: That the pre-emptiOn law does not restrict a pre-emptor as to the number of filings he may make upon unoffered land prior to his perfecting a pre-emption claim. 2d: A pre- emptOr may abandon a filing upon one tract and make a subsequent filing upon another tract, or he may make said second filing without abandoning the former. 3d: A pre-emptOr eXhausts his pre-emption privilege by proving up and making entry, even of the smallest legal subdivision, after which he is not entitled to file.

IN an interview with Capt. Jefford's yes terday, we learned that there is no proba- bility Of a removal of the Cachise or Chir- icahua Apaches to Canada Alamoso, New Mexico; that Cachise objected to going away when Superintendent Dudley was there 10 investigate the subject, as did sew eral of the principal chiefs. Capt. Jeffords gives it as his candid opinion that an at tempt to remove them would lead to a re- newal of hostilities, and so advised Col Dudley, and he thinks the latter would not recommend the removal. Our own opinion is that if those Apaches could be taken away and continue in peace, it would be profitable move to Arizona otherwise, one of the very worst. They have kept perfect faith with the people of Arizona, and tliat is an advantage that should not be jeopardzed by any ex- pertinent. Capt, Jeffords has done well with those Indians, and we are entirely satisfied with his appointment of agent by the President.

THE CITIZEN.
Indifference to Murder.

The apparent indifference of the people
 at Desert Station to the actions of W. P.
 Hall and Charles V. Moore has been @ subject of much remark within our hear
 ing, and it was our purpose to have made mention of it fast week, but other matters filled our space. Even after the firing
 was heard, all hands very calmly took a view of the fight and then retired to
 breakfast. Alter Hall and Moore return ed, they were permitted to take break fast and indulge in some unbecoming language about what had been done, and afterwards quietly and without any moles-
 tation to take the course that suited each
 The testimony published last week, in dicated this much to have been the case i; and it also impresses an impartial reader with the belief that the men at the station felt some unnecessary if not wholly un- warranted action was intended by Hall and Moore in their haste to go out and meet the two Mexicans. The testimony also shows that those at the station asked Hall and Moore to let the men come up to the station, but does not show that any other effort was made to restrain them from going out Then after 1t was plain that shooting was going on in clear sight, no steps were taken to go and prevent it or see what injury was done until after Moore and Hall returned and all hands ate breakfast. Probably the men at the station did what others would have done under like circumstances, but as the sequel shows, they might have pre- vented the killing; and their own testi- mony implies that Hall and Moore meant violence to the MeXicans, for they had arms and borrowed shotgun at the sta tion just before starting on their work of death.
 We don't care to censure the men at the station, but to call public attention to what they might have done with great propriety and credit, and what ought to be done under like circumstances. ItI surely is right and proper for citizens who have reasonable ground for suppos- ing personal violence or killing of fellow men to be intended by others, to do what they can to prevent it. The force at the station was sufficient to have controlled the actions of Moore and Hall and, if necessary, to have taken into safe GUS tody the Mexicans who were killed with out any provocation, so far as we can learn, for all accounts go to show them to have been men of excellent character wherever known. The whole commun- ity should wake up to a keener sense of the enormity of the crimes of murder and of killing innocent people. Especially should station keepers and men obliged to travel the roads much with a little money or property, or both, be alive to prevent such bloody work and assist Tn punishing the perpetrators of it when done.
