A KEMARKABLE NEW LAW.

The new land law that bears date March
2. 1889. and which was first published on
the Pacific coast by the MORNING REVIEW.
10 being referred to by some of the news.
papers as the omnibus land law" This
is erroneous. II was not the so-called
''omnibus land bill" that passed congress
and became law. That bill contained
sweeping provisions directed against the
preemption law, the timber culture law,
the timber land law and the desert land
law, and practically little but the home
stead law was unimpaired, and even that
was made more stringent On the contrary
the bill that passed extends several rights
to settlers and takes nothing away. Ii is.
in fact, remarkable for the liberality of
several OF its provisions, considering that
the tendency was in the opposite direc-
tion.
This new law Of March 2, 1889. extends
the homestead privilege TO all persons who
have heretofore exhausted their rights
under the old homestead law without Sc
curing the benefits of the law. Many per.
sons, under variety of circumstances.
have made original entries for land under
the homestead law and failed to perfect
title. To all such persons this act extends
the right to make new entry. Another
provision of the law, and this Ia certainly
a remarkable one. extends the right to
persons holding presumption claims to
convert their pve-emptions into home-
steads, even though they may have had
the full benefit Of the homestead law here
tofore. In fact che wording of the law is
such that presumption claimant. even
though he may be the owner OF the land
In former homestead, may con-
vert bis pre-emption claim into home
stead and thus become the owner of two
quarter sections under the homestead law.
This vas perhaps not intended by con.

ZONE of the new states OF the North
west the Chicago Globe says, lis likely
ito take her place with the democratic
wing OF Uncle Sans family. Reports OF
wshe election held in Montana seem to
Justify the belief that the democrats will
elect the state ticket when the territory
comes in and choose the representatives
and two senators who will compose its
frat delegation in congress. On the
same theory the Globe might predict that
* ansas will stake her place In the demo-
cratic wing" Notwithstanding Kansas
gave Harrison nearly $1,000 majority last
fall, every city in the state of any conse-
sauence elected democratic municipal
officers, from, mayor down, only five
months later. The fact is that in munich
pal elections everywhere local issues pre-
dominate, and the result forms no cri-
terion upon which calculations may be
safely based as to the vote in future cleo
tions. when political principles are in
volved. It is mistake, therefore, for
the party in the majority to make party
huht in local elections.

coERCION WILL NOT WIN.

The threats Of the disappointed Okla
homa boomers to force the government to
open the Cherokee strip comes with bad
grace Ut this time. IL the people making
this attempt at forced opening OF the
land were without homes or funds the
demand could be viewed In an entirely
different light, but the fact is that large
majority of the people who rushed to the
alleged Ell Dorado were not in need of the
lands they desired to acquire, but we're in
quest of gain alone. If it appeared that
the Cherokee strip would be used for the
benefit of actual settlers and home seekers
it is likely that the government would
have no hesitancy in opening up the strip.
but as the matter now appears it is not
probable that u ncle Sam will be forced
into acquiescence TO the demands of
horde of land sharks and polite thieves.
While it il not possible to draw line
between honest and dishonest intentions
il is not difficult for the 'powers that be
to sit heavily down upon the mob that
has squattsd upon the Cherokee reserve
and which nov demands its immediate
opening. These people should be driven
If if for no other purpose than to impress
,pon their mind that the United States
lave a government which must be re-
pected and it's laws obeyed.
