THE SETTLERS WIN.

The House Judiciary Committee has re-
ported in favor of Government defense
of the title given to settlers on lands in
California or elsewhere which the South
ern Pacific Company claims as theirs by
right of an ancient grant. The report
states that since August. 1887. the Interior
Department has held that the conditions
under which the lands were granted to
the Southern Pacific Company have not
been complied with. and that the depart
ment, acting upon this ruling. has given
titles to settlers who have made valuable
and permanent improvements on lands
thus patented to them. The committee
now recommends that the Government de-
iend the title it has given. There does not
seem any ground for an adverse report.
but 1t is reported that one will be made
Unless the facts stated In the house COM
mIttee's report are found to be incorrect.
the minority report will be forced to take
the ground that the Government of the
United States may adopt practices in the
sale of public lands which If initiated by
an individual would land him in prison.
The corporation attorney who is at the
head of the law department is responsible
for the necessity of this judiciary report
Had Mr.. Olney done his plain duty the
title of settlers would have been de-
Tended and the administration of Mr.
Cleveland been spared the grave scandal
of trying to defraud settlers on a legal
bubble. Congressman Bowers has the
honor of having secured favorable action
by the Judiciary Committee
The morning call., 1894-04-07
SEAL LEGISLATION.

A bill TO carry into effect the findings Of
the Bering Sea Court of Arbitration has
passed our House. and reached its second
reading in the House of Commons. 1t is
supposed that the two bills are similar in
their provisions, though there is not a
very clear understanding as to the course
that will be pursued in respect to sealers
which started before the laws were en-
acted. The American Government holds
that the decision of the arbitrators was
sufficient notice to sealers Of the purposes
of the two nations; while the British Gov
eminent is likely to claim that until notice
is served the sealers are not bound by the
findings Of this arbitration. The Victoria
ColoniSt comments on the American view
of the case, and concludes IS follows:
1t Is not likely that those Governments will
agree upon a course OF action which will infitct
injury and loss upon the sealers who Sc out on
their voyages long before they had agreed upon
plan of joint action.
If this plan of action is followed the
sealers will have another season. 1t will
take some time to overhaul the sealers,
one by one. and serve notice that seal
slaughter has been declared unlawful
And if Canadian or American poacher
should run up neutral flag it is not clear
what the vessels engaged in the sea patrol
would do
