STATE SCHOOL. LANDS.
Decision in Favor Of the King
County Commissioners.
TERRITORIAL SELECTIONS VALID.
The Secretary Of the Interior Settles an
1mpertant Point. Involving title
to Much Valuable Land.

WAsHIEa1or CRY. Oct. 13.-[Special. r.
George Chandler, acting secretary Of the
interior, today decided an interesting and
important question presented by many res
idents of Washington as to the validity OF
school indemnity selections made by
county commissioners prior to the admis-
sion into the Union. The secretary de-
cided the cases of w. r. Chalk, e. r.
Wheeler, B. w. Jennings. H. w. Wheeler,
Les Wheeler, Ella Wheeler, H. #. Nc
Clurg. Hulda n. Smith, George F. Noyes
and John B. Lougham, who applied to
make cash entries of now valuable land in
the Seattle district The local officer re-
fused the application because they had
been selected As school lieu lands. The
applicants appealed, holding that the selec-
tons reserved before the enabling act were
void thereafter, because that act provided
for school lands under other terms. They
bold that the act of 1850 did not apply to
Washington.
Tho secretary rules that this act il ap
plicable to the state of Washington, and
that reservations made by the selection OF
these tracts while the territorial govern
ment existed, Is q continuing reservation
until the selections are cancelled. The
authority to make the selections rests with
the county commissioners. and they may
appoint an agent to act for them. The
only question which is to be considered in
these cases is whether the lands were SUBJ
ject to entry at the time the above named
persons made application. The secretary
holds that they were not. as they had been
reserved. The reservation, he thinks,
should continue, and he sustains the local
officers in their action.

recurrence of his sickness through the ex-
element of the trial. Crown Prosecutor
Roman closely questioned the doctor re-
garding the nature of O'Mahoney's illness.
v. B. Dillon, of counsel for the defense,
protested against Romans questions, which
he characterized as horrible. David
Sheehy, one of the accused. denounced as
barbarous the manner in which the crown
was conducting the prosecution. Roman
asked for an adjournment until tomorrow.
when the crown would suggest . course
tina. would enable the court to proceed in
spite of the absence of O Mahoney. Dillon
objected to the sho rtness Of the adjourn
ment, and was supported by his fellow
counsel, J. E. Redmond. The bench &C.
coded to Romans request.
