Ashland, Wis, Nav 25.-There was
quite 4 rush on the land office again
Hnnrtlr hcEle closing time yesterday,
when the facts leaked out that Secretary
Hoke Smith had made some very broad
decisions covering mail entries. In
every instance his ruling upon
this point is that the applications made

Almost every mail application sent in
to the local office on the first day OF
entry, November >, was dated a dav or
fuo previous, and under the ruling of
Secretary Smith all such applications
are void With this ruling all mail ap-
rlIcations are TO be rejected, and prior
light will then rest in those who per
sonaily appeared at the office to make
ililngs, having applications dated No

the contestants in the case filed by mail

brought on a silent rush of citizens ac-
gEalntcd with the inside facts, who ap.
pcared personally at the land office and
filed IN the lands thus thrown out bv
Secretary smith in his rejection of such
mali applications.
