cality hard to be filed, as he was always
foremost in all enterprises for the benefit
of the masses. The sympathy of the en-

Maj. Baldwin is making record In
congress on the introduction OF bills.
He has presented another measure al
fecting the rights of settlers, which gives
relief to those settlers who went on tho
Northern Pacific indemnity lands be-
tween August Is, 1887, and January 1.
1889, and were afterwards forced to give
them up. in many cases after they had
made valuable improvements. BY an act
of Oct. l, 1890, these settlers were given
one year from that date to transfer their
entries or claims to any other lands with
in the public domain. A number OF them
failed to avail themselves of the privl-
leges of that act within the time speci-
fed. Mai. Baldwin's hill proposes to
give all such another year from the date
of it's passage to avail themselves of the
act of 1890 and make the transfer therein
provided for. The measure has the ap-
proyal of the interior department, and
will probably become law. This brings
to- mind similar attempt by Kittel Hal
vorsen. Kittel wanted to extend the
time year, but hie bill provided for ex'
tending the act of 1890 year, and, un-
fortunately for his purpose, that time
had already expired before he got around
with his bill, end so he failed to get con-
sideration.
