Washington Special Mr.. Wsskburn OF
Minnesota said to-day he intended to intro
duce bill to repeal the presumption laws.
This would be in accordance with the rec
ommendatiou of the seer etary Of the in,
terror and the course of general land office.
Mr.. Washburn introduced a similar meas
ure in the last congress, but IT failed to pass
the senate. The discussion Of the bill, low
ever, resulted in the exposure Of numerous
frauds committed under the law and in the
passage of a provision authorizing the special
service in the land office to investigate these
abuses, resulting in the cancellation OF a
great many fraudulent entries. Mr.. Strait
Of Minnesota will introduce a bill
providing for the sale, alter ap-
praisal and proper notice, to the highest
bidder, the bids to be sealed, OF pine timber
lands. chiefly valuable for the timber on
item. While Mr., Strait believes that a
great many frauds have been C'mmitted
under the pre-emption laws, be Says O great
many honest settlers have been wronged
by the investigation Of the special service.
Many entries have been Cancelled simply
because the settler had failed, from no fault
Q: their own. to fully comply with all the
requirements. He thinks theS should not
have been deprived Of tIpit entry, espec-
tally as their intention was sincere, He is,
however, inclined to favor the irepeai of the
pre-, emption. He says tie pubic lsnds
are being SO rapidly taken up,
that in a lew years they VIII
become scarce, and he thinks !
proper that those remaining should be taken

of pre-. emption laws is practiced chiefly up
on timber lands, the frauds being commit
ted with the view of getting the timber. At
all events, they should be remedied. His
bill contains a section to amend the timber
culture laws.
Mr.. Nelson of Minnesota will introduce a
bill of similar effect to that of Mr.. Strait.
The provisions of his bill were mentioned
at length in these dispatches come time ago.
Mr.. Washburn said he hoped to obtain The
early action of the house on this subject,
and that he would be able to have it passed
in the senate this session.

Trouble About Terms OF Office.

The new amendment to the constitution!
is proving a great Source Of woffiment to
county officials. Public Examiner Knox is
flooded with COMMUNICATIONS in regard to
the matter. Under the old law county
treasurers we're obliged to qualify before
Jan. Is and auditors before March /. The
new law makes no provision for changing
the requirement. As the board of county
commissioners does not meet until
the first Tuesday in January and the newly
elected officers take their seats before this
date, it would seem that they could not
transact business until after the
9th inst. The attorney general
las previously held, however, that
! that the board can be convened OF any time
for a special object, and the matter will
probably be settled in that manner The
other important question is in regard to
salaries. Many of the county officers had
drawn their salaries up to next March by
the middle of jane, as the law permits; and,
as the new term begins the first Monday in
January, the question arises, ''shall re.
elected officials receive double pay Tol
these two months, or shall new officials not
receive any?n either OF which alternatives
would work injustice. Public Examiner
Knox has submitted the matter to the attor.
ney general.

a commodious structure.
On Exchange Row Messrs. Duncan
