RAILROAD LANDS.
They mast bc ssid for ~ SO per
Acre.


WASHINGTON, Sept ls.--The Secre-
tsry Of the Interior rendered the follow
ing decision, in regard TO land within
the granted limits OF the Northern Paci-
&c Railroad, released from reservation
for the Crow Indians: First, that even
sectious within this leased reservation
should be sold at double minimum
price Of 81. so per acre. With regard to
odd sections it is held that although the
Legislative intent in this case may not be
entirely free from doubt in that 1t was
one OF the sole purposes Of the
agreement to afford an oppor-
tunity for the speedy location
and construction Of the railroad
without trsspassing upon the rights Of
the Indians, yet in view OF the doubt
end the fact that when definite location
svas made the rslease did not bee jme
such az to restore tho land 10 the public
domain, ] concur in tho opinion Of the
Land Office and affirm, the law Of the
case having been substantially settled
by nnmerous decisions of the depart
ment IN other cases.
In regard to the price Of odd sections
to be disposed of where grant is made
he declares that alternate and even sec.
tions reserved to the United States shall
not be sold for less than 81 so per acre.
The department is constsuctiyely author
lied TO treat odd sections in the same
:snaaper as even sections are treated and
therefore they should bear the same
price. The Secretary says it could not
have been the intent OF Congress to hx
d;ffarent urieaa for lauda living aide bv
aide In common limits aud governed by
the same rules of disposal, basing the
difference on the fact Of some sections
bearing odd and others even numbers in
designating them. The description be-
ing merely for purposes Of survey aud
identification. This decision applies to
all future disposal Of lands within the
railroad limits, where the statute re-
quires double minimum rates to be
pail for lands in alternate sections.

From the Boston Herald. !

On the 9th of June last, when Gov.
Cleveland's public career and services

rare and elevated" and added that,
should the Convention decide to nomi-
nate him, 1--WE say emphatically that
the candidate will stand fair chance Of
carrying the State Of New York and the
best efforts Of the Sun will be devoted to
securing his entire success" Is this the
