NEvApA,s PUBLIC LANDS.

The annual report OF the CommIs-
sioner of the General Land Office for
the fiscal year ending June Goth, last,
has been made public. II shows
that there is still a large quantity or
land in the Western States available
to settlers. The following paragraphs
relating to Nevada are taken from
the report;
In Nevada there are @,l6o, i62 acres
OF surveyed and unappropriated land
aud ;2,loS,27S acres OF u~nsurveyed
and inappropriate lands, 5,9S3,9o0
are reserved and 3,aaa6,49l acres ap.
propuated.
The Surveyor General OF Nevada
recommended that Congress be asked
to extend the mineral land laws
to include the saline lands
in the State. AT present there is no
law Of Congress under which q tl;le
can be obtained in Nevada to saline
lands, much TO the Inconvenience Of
the people. The Surveyor General
asks for $4,000 for surveying public
lands, and 5000 for II. establishing
and connecting mineral monuments
He says this estimate is based upon
the real need for surveys in the Stare
and that as i matter Of fac; Il sum
several times rs large would be re.
CURED to make the survey that are
asked for.
