some atonement to this people for the
ISLANDERS he has heaped upon them, and
as we must admit, with the very worst
of motives, namely: to bring trouble and
distress on an innocent people, to break
up happy andocontented homes, and de-
prive women and children of their nat
ural protectors. What work
for professed ministers of the
gospel to be engaged in
but should his description of the means
used, be as wide from the truth, as have
been his stories of the people who have
ever treated him well, and as gentle
man, the closing remarks of one of
the speakers, will likely be realized,
namely, that should it be the misfortune
of any one present, to be shut out of the
BEAUTIFUL city we read about in the
sacred book, outside of which will be
found dogs and sorcerers, and whomso-
ever loveth or n,dketh lie, there they

FINAL ACTION.
Information Respecting Entries of
Public Lands.
To the Editor OF THE HERALD:

To the Editor of The HERALD:
Referring again to the matter of
suspending final action on land entries,
on which we wrote to Washington for
further information, we would say that
we have now received reply from Hon.
VIM. A. Sparks, Commissioner of the
General Land Office, enclosing copy of
his decision in full, and also stating the
view taken by his honor in regard to its
general effect. We, however, fail to dis
Germ the strict conformity of his honor's
present communication with that pub
llshed some time ago in your paper. In
the one referred to, his honor stated
that the order did not affect lands in
Idaho or Utah at ALL But this letter
shows that final action will be suspend
ed on entries made here and in Idaho,
as well as other parts, in order to ascer-
tain if said entries are fraudulent.
This must cause delay on obtaining
patents. If in nothing else, and subjects
all classes ofentries named in the order
to investigation by detectives, so that
they may be attacked on the ground of
fraud, and parties be put on further
proof as to their good faith, and legal
improvements. OF course, if there is
no fraud, only delay will result, unless
misrepresentation should cause an
outlay for hearings, etc., subjecting
innocent narties to expensive contests
and annoying investigations. We sub
NIT both the communication and the
order for publication if you desire.
