APPROVED LANDS.
The School Fund to be Greatly
Benefited by Land Agent
Happier.

The State Land Office, through Gov
ernor Sadler, has received from Hon
Blnger Hermann. Commissioner of the
General Land Office, a transcript of
approval list No. % OF selections made
by the State Of Nevada, embracing
IS, 4l3 SO acres. The list embraces
lands which were applied for as long
ago as August, 1883, and at various
times extending from that date to Jan
uary, 1899.
Much credit is due the State Land
Agent, c. J, Happier, who, with the
assistance and influence of Senator
Stewart, has succeeded in getting those
lands approved to the State. Mr..
Happier is an untiriug worker and at
tends faithfully to the duties of Land
Agent, as is evidenced by having selec-
lions of land made by the State, and
held in allegiance in the General Land
Office, for periods extending from one
year to sixteen ears, approved.
1t may not be generally known that
applicants tor State lands, who pay
twenty per cent Of the purchase price
at the time of making the application
are ntc required to pay interest on the
dollar an acre due the State, until
they enter into contract with the State
to PURCHASE the lands. The contract
cannot be made until the lands are ap-
proved by the General Government to
the State. Therefore, the success of
Land Agent Happier and Senator
Stewart, in securing the approval of
the land selections, which have been
held in abeyance for years, means that
interest can now be secured on 1926. Alb,
that Is on the deferred payments on
Dab acres OF land, from which the
School Fund has, heretofore, derived
no benefit.
