EDITOR TELLER.-DEAR S1R:-In
the last issue Of The TELLER my name
in connection with several others was
used by Mr.. Mcclure as having been
instrumental in depriviug him of his
claim. You will confer favor by in
sorting few lines in the columns of The
TELLER 10 explanation of the part |

Last August I visited Gencssee Valley
for the first time. insearch of claim; [
was informed by the neighbors that
there was an abandoned homestead 10
the vicinity upon which MIR. Mcclure
had settled early last Spring, but thai
ne had sold his good will to a Mr.. Cisco,
who caused to be published in The
TELLER to the absent homestead, that
ne would make proof of the abandonment
OF the place. 1t would seem quite pro.
badly that this report was true, as Mr..
Mcclure does not mention Cisco's name
among those who have been iustrumsn.
tai in depriving him of his claim.
Thinking the land Office would be the
proper place to ascertain the status of
the public lands, repaired thither and
was informed by the officers that Cisco
mad failed to appear at the designated
time to make the required proof, but
that owing to the Indian excitement
it would be proper to extend the time
to him, as he had incurred the expense
OF publishing the notice; to this I readi.
y assented and after an absence of more
than month returned to the land Office
and was informed by the agent that
they had written to Mr.. Cisco but had

Jumping Land Claims.

Amid SO much and so good land as
there is open for settlement in this Sec
ton Of country, it would seem that well
disposed persons could easily select
claims that would not interfere with the
vested rights of others, although those
rights might apparently be held by a
feeble tenure. But such is not the
poor human nature of class of men,
who appear to envy the selection of
some others who have made prior selec,
tions under the impression that because
these selections have been made by
others, they must if necessity be the
best that could have been made, and
they will watch and hang around to see
if they cannot take some technical ad.
vantage under the Presumption and
Homestead laws, and seize upon the Sc
lections made by others: and get away
with them. To them "stolen waters
are sweet" They seem to have no re-
spect for the labor aud expenditure
placed upon the claims, so long as they
can trip a farmer claimant and cause
him to lose his right. They are la,d
shysters, and generally will make DO
good citizens in any community, aud
locks, bars AMI Bolts become essential
elements in all communities where 81 ch
characters reside. On the other hand
as the government has literally provided
the terms and conditions for taking UP
and perfecting title to governne nt
lands, it behooves claimants to comply
with those terms in their true spirit
and intentions, and not seek to obtain
title upon doubtful footing. No man
has the right to attempt to hold land
and exclude others therefrom tor term
Of years beyond the time allowed by
law unless he has the title in himself.
1t is species Of arrogance and covet-
BUSINESS that ought to be frowned down
in every community, and will be rebuked
by Land Office department in every in
stance, as it should be. A hint to the
wise is sufficient.
