An ENGLISH IDEA-Speaking of his
visit to England last year JOHN T.
Raymond recently said, at London
dinner party the lady he escorted to
the table said to him in very earnest
voice:
"Mr. Raymond, are you really Amer.
lean? You are not in the least like
my idea Of one.'
II am an American, but not an alb
original" responded he.
"An aboriginal! You mean an In
dian. That reminds me to ask if you
have much trouble with the Indians in
New York;"
"No; we have got them pretty well
under there was the reply.
"Aud they are - do they dress as
you do:"
"Oh. yes; in New York City they
are great snobs. but at Niaear Falls
they run about in the simplicity OF
nothingness,'
GLOW dreadful.' murmured the lady;
and Dean Stanley wrote SO glowingly
of the place and never said a word
about ,n-[Cincinuati Enquirer.

THE CIGARgrrE Ylcs.-The records
of the Internal Revenue Bureau show
an alarming increase in the use Of ci-
garette<. During the yea, ending
June 30th, 1880, ordinary cigarettes.
such as are in general use. and which
arc taxed sl75 per thousand, paid III
t. the Government on account Of such
taxation, S7I5,227,39. Cigarettes Of
a higher grade aud which are taxed
s. per thousand yielded revenue Of
hut SIS. making a total of ST45, 259,39.
The figures for the fiscal year ending
June S0th. 1881, show that ordinary
cigarettes, such as are taxed Sl.75 per
thousand, yielded revenue Of 1922
9a7.22: add the tax fr,m those Of a
higher grade, and the total is 1892,
9Sl.22. Compared with the figures of
the fiscal year ending June 30th. 1880,
the rapidly Increasing consumption of
cigarettes in this country is astound-
ing. The Government reaps an addi-
tional income of S2TT,7llS 81 per an
mum. Divide this up among the CON-
mon grades, which alone are worth
considering and figuring, AT the taxa
ton of Sl.T5 per thousand, the III
creased consumption amounts 10 near
ly 100 000. 900 cigarettes per annnm.

times makes ludicrous mistakes, as
witness the following. The Salt Lake

hence the folly Of rushing to the
land office to make an entry before
the applicant knows that the land
he claims is not occupied or settled
upon BY another. The correct way
to obtain 8 claim is to select 4 good
tract Of land, make your settlement
upon it, and then, within three
months make your homestead en-
try, or file your presumption claim.
There is xbundance Of good land
for all who may come here seeking
homes and all may obtain homes
with but little expense aud delay
by observing the suggestions made
above. Under the presumption
law no right is obtained by filing
st the land Office, but q right is OBJ
tanned only By actual settlement,
and a filing made before set.
Element confers no right whatever.
A settler has three months .ftel
settlement to file his claim.
Notice will be given publicly OF
the date of the receipt Of the plats
Of the new survey at the land ofiice
and settlers will be allowed tire,
months from that date in which tt
file their claims.

Important to settlers.

We find the following article il
the Grand Forks Herald. It vii
apply equally as well to Northern
Minnesota, and should be read by
al who contemplate taking Vi
land, either in this or adjoining
counties.
The country is rapidly filing VI
with settlers, and others who have
been hera during the winter are
about to seek homes on the prairies
and we give few facts and few
Of The provisions Of the law for
their benefit, in seeking claims.
In the first place, it should be re.
nembcred that all the land i,-
Northern Dakota is not desirable
FOR cultivation or for residence
while vast portion Of the land i:
fertile and tilla ole there are som
sections, and parts Of sec
lions, are utterly worthless
hence the necessity of a c. G
fal and personal inspection Of Il
land before it is entered. Do nc.
be mislead by agents, and attor
neys, and 'locatt:rs.' who tell yc.
that claim is good and I'll righ|
but examine it yourself; for undo
the law and Instructions after a.
entry has once been made at Il,
Government Land Office, it came
be changed, even though the clair
should prove to be utterly worth
less. This fact settlers should IN.
lerstand thoroughly, and whoeyes
tells you differently tells you what
is not true.
The 3rd section of the act approx
ed May IA, 1880, IL az follows:
SEC. ?. That any settler who has settled, o,
who hill he,e after settle on any of the put
lie lands of the United States, whether srtrvs
ed or udguryeyed, with the intention Of cl.ii:
ing the same under the homestead laws, sl.''

stea application and perfect his original entr
in ths United States Land Office as is now IL
lowed to settlers under the prescription la
to pat their claims on record, and his rig.
reiate back to the date Of settlement, the SAINT
as i. he settled under the presumption laws.
1t will be seen from this that par
ties can settle upon land with tLs
intention Of entering the same as
homestead and wilF be allove:
three months from date of setl
meat, or three months from u
time the land comes into marAs.
to make an entry at the Land o..
fee. The right Of the claimant
will relate back to the date Of he
settlement. Hence, should a party
come to the land Office and raak,
an entry and it should be ascertain
&c that a settler YVES upon said
tract, the settler would haze pref
ersnce right; the first entry W,ul>5
be cancelled, but the process q
cancellation is . long. one, and J.

been cancelled cannot make an
other entry until Lis.righ51 to do SO
