Land Commissioner Lamoreaux. All Of
them affirmed decisions made by the
register aud receiver OF the Marquette
department. The one decided by Secre-
tary Smith is the most important.
Secretary Smith has reversed the de-
cision of Com mmis ssioner Lamoreaux in re-
jecting the selection by the state Of
Michigan of 5,0l4 acres Of land In the
Marquette district AS indemnity for
swamp lands lost by reason Of prior loca-
tions. Tie commissioner held that the
state could only select such lands as are
subject TO private entry at Sl.25 per
acre, aud that there are no longer any
lands of that character In the state. The
| secretary holds that the commissioner
stretched a point In reaching his con-
clusion, and that, although the law reads
| as stated by him, still, in view OF the
| fact that the legislation was remedial,
| the states application should have been
allowed. He therefore directs that
patent issue to the state for the lands Ia
| controversy.
The case was originally decided by the
| local officials In favor Of the state. 1t
was then appealed to Commissioner La
moreaux, and his decision was Ia turn
appealed from and reversed.
! BY Secretary Whitney's rulings the
Marquette land office new has nothing to
do with the lands. They have been
turned over to the state commissioner
and he will sell them according to their
appraisal value.

the following contested land cases which
