for non payment of the interest due to
August to August 1. 1898.
Owing to the unprecedented demand
by agents to see aud examine this LIST,
together with the further fact that
they are in great demand for actual
| settlement and purchase. as evidenced
by thousands of letters received at this
Office since the first day of June, de-
handing an opportunity to purch ase
the same, and in view of the fact, so I
have often been informed that other
parties in some sections of the state
have advised forfeitures for the pur-
pose of procuring reduction in price
for q stated fee, but to the detriment
of the public school fund, have led me
| to believe that it would be unwise to
reduce the price below that which they
were heretofore valued. Some of the
transfers on file show that some of
these lands have sold at SIS per acre
above the amount due the state.
Some few sections of this land, per-
| haps, should be reduced in value, but
do not know which of them should be
reduced, and for the purpose of testing
their value. they will be on the mar
ket for sale at the old price beginning
| September l and until December /,
1899.
Under the law, FORGETTING purchasers
act of 1895 went into effect, viz: Aug
ust l, 1895, have ninety days prior
right to repurchase from date these
| lands were replaced on the market, viz:
Septem Der /, 1899, on condition of pay
ment of all the interest due on the
forfeited claim to date of forfeiture,
viz: July 20. 1899. Also these forfeited
claims may be reinstated on payment
to the state treasurer of back interest
due thereon, provided that such pay
ment is made at any time prior to the
replacing of the lands on the market,
or prior to intervening rights of others.
No such rights can intervene prior
to September l, 1899, but may at any
time thereafter.
The representatives of some of the
leading and progressive daily papers
have offered to publish this list for the
Information of those desiring to pur
chase. I readily accepted their gen.
erous offer, and in order that no one
person may have any advantage over
another in the purchase thereof, they
will not be on the market for sale until
September 1, after public notice.
