ney General jerks has decided that the

power under the law to direct the general
land commissioner to audit and settle &C.
counts for surveying the public lands even
when delay would be injurious to the pub
lie service. The necessary power in such
cases rests with the secretary of the interior.
The original controversy grew out of dis
pute between Controller Durham and Com
missioner Sparks over the accounts of land
officers and special agents in Minnesota,
Dakota and Nebraska. Durham claimed
he could audit Them but it was found that
the land Office could. under the statutes,
audit its own accounts.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-COl. Muldrow,
acting secretary of the interior, made an
interesting decision in land case coming
from Devils Lake, Oak. H. G. Hans
brOugh, of that place, is one of its most
stirring citizens. He formerly lived at Bar
abOO. Wis. and at Grand Forks, OAK,
editing there the Daily News. Jan. TO-
1884, ne was appointed, by President
Arthur, postmaster of Devils Lake. Feb.
9 of that year he made homestead entry
about twelve miles from Devils Lake.
Gen. Sparks cancelled his claim recently on
the ground of non-residence. HansbrOugh
appealed and now the secretary decides that
if the postmaster has complied with the
postal laws requiring him to live within
the delivery limits of his Office he cannot
claim residence on quarter section of land
twelve miles distant from Devils Lake, so
the claim is to be cancelled.

1t was found to contain 20S acres and the
general land Office gave him the alternative
of choosing which legal subdivision he
wanted or submit to having the whole claim
cancelled. Michael OBrien bought the
claim of him and appealed to Secretary
Lamar to be allowed to keep the entire
claim. Acting Secretary Muldrow to-day
decided that O'Brien had no more right
than Nye had and must choose which pOr-
ton he wanted to keep or lose it all.

for the passage of the annexation bill

propositions, however, which are SO in
consistent that one has to guess as tt
which be really means. He wants te
annex North Idaho, comprising one ju

zealously pushing bill for the appoint.
Iment of fourth Judge. IF he wants a
fourth judge he don't want annexation
If he wants annexation he don't want a
fourth judge. He is also insisting on
Baird's appointment as Marshal. on the
grounds that he is resident of the Ter
|ritory and is trying to get him out Of the
Territory before the time Of making the
arrives. In his fourth Judge
Bill be has a clause which provides
that the Governor shall redistrict the
Territory and assign the judges. II.
wants by this to remove Hays from the
Mormon district and assign his fourth
Judge man provided he is ali right, t,
that district, SO that he can sustain the
Mormons in disobeying the electi laws,
and thus throw the contest on the anti
Mormons. A vigorous protest to sena
