Made himself Felt.

When a well-known member of this
community, now dead, was State SEN.
ator from this city, he was engaged in
some very radical measures which sorely
cut into many people whom he thought
were in need Of reform. They abused
him very thoroughly, but in his honesty
he m~aintained the fight strongly. A
friend of his from the city visited him
in Sacramento while the measures were
pending.

nation touching the land Interest III your
else form on or before the LIST Of August
next.
The report sent in from the Devils Lake
land Office, Z. g. Spilman, register aud s. s.
Smith, receiver. is as follows:
Attempts to improperly acquire lands up
or the public domain since our incumbency
are manifestly on the decrease, owing part
ly to the fact that towns have been gener-
ally established throughout this district,
county seats located and speculative fling,
on the public domain, so far as these causes
obtained, largely concluded. Land values
have thus become more settled and conserv-
alive as an incident Of settlement aud de-
velopment.
All attempts to improperly acquire lands
on the public domain, SO far as an approx
mate judgement can be formed, are made
under the timber culture law. This law is
one of doubtful utility, very few claims be-
ing in condition to justify the belief that
the holders will be able eventually to make
good their title under the provisions of the
law, however faithfully they have endeavor-
ed to perform its conditions.
After a careful review of the workings eff
the various land avs in this district, we
desire to express the opinion that SO far as
the development and settlement of the coun-
try is concerned the exigencies Of the case
are best met by the pre- emption law.
Fraudulent entries under this law lave
reached a minimum in this district.
The actual and ~presumptive cases Of land
being appropriated by aliens who have de-
clared their intention to become citizens of
the United States, but who make final proof
under the presumption law without having
dane so-many of whom never do take out
final citizenship papers (this being especially
true of Canadians, who cross the line, set
tie upon, acquire and sell land, and return
to their homes without becoming citizens of
the United states) would suggest a change.
in the law in that respect, viz that all
aliens, without depriving them of their pres
rights of settlement on the public do
main, be required in all cases to become
Of the United States before being
to make final proof for their claims.
