the defaulted interest the amount now due is
something over $4,000 The holders of
the bonds offered to take 100000 in new
bonds at 4 per cent. interest payable in
twenty-five years. This would make the
yearly interest $500 instead of ST. SOC, as at
present. But the citizens realize that they
can raise even $500 a year for interest, and
the matter is to be left in it's present bad
shape.
The national house committee on public
lands decided to report favorably a snbsti-

and pay Sl.25 per acre, the same as for pre-
emptions, or they may take the land under
