WASHINGTON, March 1S.-All the
papers prepared at the interior depart
ment looking to the opening up of Okla
homa territory are now before President
Harrison, and it is expected that within
this week he will issue a proclamation
opening the country to settlement. At
this time only about 100000 acres of
land will be thrown open to settlement.
The land that will be affected by the
proclamation lies in about the middle
of the Oklahoma country. The Chicago,
Kansas & Nebraska railroad, now in the
course of construction. runs along its
southwestern border and the Southern
Kansas railroad through its eastern
border. A commission to treat with the
Cherokee Indians for the purchase of
the Cherokee outlet. will, it is thought,
be appointed shortly after the procla-
nation is issued. BY the terms of the
law in regard to settlement, no one who
takes possession of a holding prior to
the issuance of the presidents procla-
nation, acquires any right. On the con-
trary, by the express mandate of the
law itself, any one who makes settle

president not only forfeits his holding,

IN TIE SENATE,
Our Relations With Mexico and

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-The third

taken up. After a brief debate
the resolution was referred to the
committee on commerce, and the senate
proceeded to executive business. When

short interval of time) the senate pro-
ceeded to the consideration of the reso-
luton offered by Mr.. Call. for the APP
pOintment of select committee on the
relations of the United States with Cuba
and the other West India islands. The
discussion turned Oh the question of

the senate to do so, but whether it
was discreet and wise to enter upon
legislative questions at an extra
ordinary session. While he had no OBJ

senate should adopt any resolution
making a charge upon the treasury or
the contingent fund, but should latter it

SAULT STE. MARIE, March 1S.-Testi-
mony was completed Saturday before
Judge Grant in the circuit court in the
case of w. p. Spaulding VS.. William
Chandler for the possession Of the best
water power property in the city and
the land upon which the Edison water
power canal is situated. The result of
this suit is being anXiOuSly watched. as
it will settle the title to considerable
other property in the city. MIR. Chand-
Ter has been possessed Of the property
since 1882. At that time he received
patent from the government, he having
filed POrrerfeld scrip on the land.
Spaulding's claims dates from 1920.
An old soldier by the name of AdSit pre-
empted all the property along the
rapids, built Shanty and lived there,
finally paying the 1925 per acre required
by law, and received a receipt from the
United States land Office. The govern
ment, however. refused to give pat
ent, as they claimed the land had been
reserved by the government for ma
tional park. AdSit sold the property to
Spaulding, who construed a dock on
the land and made two applications for
patent, but was again refused. The
property remained in Statu quo until
Mr.. Chandler filed scrip on it and re-
ceived a patent from the government.
This is the beginning of large number
OF important land suits. The land in
litigation in his suit is half mile of
water frontage On the rapids, and the
best water power property in the city.
1t extends from the head of the govern
ment canal to the locks, land lies between
the new locks and the rapids. The Ed

A PERPLExING SITUATION.
Seed Wheat Scarce in Northern

FARGO, n. D., March 1S.-The Argus
tomorrow will say: cit is a serious
question where our farmers are to get
suitable seed for their spring sowing.
There is some wheat still in the hands
of farmers, but the quantity is limited
and the quality is generally very infe-
rior-entirely unsuitable for seed. The
failure OF the crop last season left many
of our farmers in Strengthened circum-
stances. In many instances even the
wheat usually reserved for bread was
sold to meet immediate and pressing
emergencies. 1t is yet more than five
months to harvest. and we are informed
upon authority that we deem most re-
liable, that it is not improbable that
shipments will have to be made into
North Dakota and Northern Minnesota
TO meet our bread wants prior to harvest
time. The situation at best is a critical
one, and our farmer friends who have
wheat sutficiet to bread them until
after next harvest should not be induced
by SpeciouS arguments to sell it. in the
hope of being able to replace it for a
less figure later on. Such experiments
are likely to prove very costly to those
