: LAND OFFICE DIsMIssALs.
List of the Unfortunates Who Have
Recently Been Droppcd

Secrecy in department methods NAV pre-
serve secrets for brief period, but these
secrets will out. Many dismissals have
been made in the general land oftice from
time to time, but the officials have never
taken the public into their confidence In
this matter. No great disturbance has been
caused, by reason of the fact that as a
rule the employees have been dismissed sin
gly and not in patches, as is the custom in
other bureaus This afternoon the reporter
for The Star got possession OF a corrected
register of the land office, showing the
changes which have taken place since the
issue of the last book. Taking into con-
sideration the infrequency OF deaths and
designations, this list very closely indicates
those who have been dismissed.
