COMMUNICATED.

The following, just received, indi-
Gates change in the rulings of the
general land Office that will be of in
terest to many Of our readers:
L. S. DISTRICT LAND OFFICE,
Olympia. W. T., Aug. %, rs. !
EDITOR Z. II. ARGUS: DEAR SR:-m-
structiOns from the Hon. Commissioner OF
the General Land Office, under directions
from the Hon. Secretary OF the Interior,
have Just been received at this Office; and
rs they are of interest to many of YOU
readers, send you synopsis of same.
New forms for the taking OF pre-emp
ton and final homestead proof have beer
prepared, which will Immediately super
! Cede those now in Use.
The principal change from the old
method of taking proof is that hereafter
the testimony of witnesses must be taken
separately, by question and answer, and
the claimant will be required to testify as
witness in his own behalf, in the same
manner. The testimony of TWO WIT
NEssES, TAKEN SEPARATELY, will be re-
qurcd.
The land officers are directed to exercise
great care and diligence in each ease, and
should it come to their knowledge, or
should they have reason to believe that
fraud or perjury have been committed,
they are required to make prompt report
for investigation.
Upon all forms is printed a notice,
which the attention of each witness musl
be called to, tat if lie testifies falsely he
will be prosecuted to the full extent of
the law.
Pre-emptors and others intending to
bring to the land office testimony of wit
nesses, taken before an officer at their
homes must procure the new forms "a
limited number of which we now have for
distribution to claimantsj before having
such testimony taken.
Very Respectfully
