Sioux Falls, March 13.-Counts Sn-
perntenlent I.nnt has received i let
ter from Maj. L. II. Ruth, commissioner
of school lands. who writes that parties
who have leases for five years Of the
school LANDS will net he disturbed in
their leases # the lands are sold. but
the commissioner says it has come to his
knowledge that parties who have leases
on these lands are putting them under
crop. This lie says is q violation OF
the law passed ly the last legislature.
and he says that the parties who are
found to be continuing this will be prose
cutel to the fullest extent Of the law.
As a matter Of fact. most Of those who
have leased lands have understood that
they had Il right TO put il under crop.
If the commss oners order IS executed
Il is sure to work much hardship upon
The farmers who have already put much
Of the llnd in crop this spring. They
understood that they had i ri-ht under

there are about 100000 appointments
in this country that are regarded as
spells. and controlled by political lead

how mcritorious record an officer

gold field 10 the colony. The Nenezu-
clans have made propositions to arbi-
trate, which have been refused by the
British. The English advanced 10 a
certain stream, the name Of which l
do not recall, and built fort. The Ven
eZuelans advanced TO the other side of
the stream. and also erected a fort, and
