Inportant 10 settlers en- Public
Lands.

L0m08s
Parties proposing to settle on Govern
ment lands will be interested in the report
Of Senator Booth on the bill offered in the
United States Senate to afford relief TO set
tiers on public lands. The difference be-
tween presumption and homestead laws is
stated as follows by the Senator: Entry
under the presumption laws is q final pro-
ceeding, while entry under the homestead
laws Is a preliminary proceeding. Entry
cannot be made under the homestead laws
till after survey, because there can be no
certain description given, while . pre-
emptor can settle before and is allowed
three months after survey to file his dcclar-
alton, and his right dates back to that
date" Booth urges that the homesteader
be allowed the same right to settle before
survey and file his declaration three months
after survey. There is great hardship to
the homesteader because after survey he is
held to have no rights. but is considered .
~trcspasser. The land is given to the first
settler under the presumption law.

A YOUNG COON.

A small representative Of Africa named
Frank Smith, who might have been eleven
years old, and who might weigh fifty
pounds, came out of cell at the pslice
station into the prisoners dock with as much
levity and carelessness as though the Mayor
was not about to pass sentence upon him.
Frank said in the first part of his defence
that he had one very good mother, and
three fathers. This latter state nent he
finally reduced to one, aud then came down
to the true expression Of things and said
his father was dead. He laughed when
asked about sleeping in dry goods boxes,
and when questioned about taking pies
without asking from q good bakers store
(this was the charge against him) he said
he had not seen pie for very long times
Al he was too young to be sent to jail, the
Mayor compromised matters with justice,
BY sending him to the Aims House.
