! AIedford Patriot: Quite a number Of
/ those who have made proof on their
/ claims since last September have received
! a notice from the land office 10 remit
! 81 90 to the office and receive therefor
! a receipt showing the same has been paid.
| OF course, supposing they had paid all
! necessary expenses, they do not under
! stand why this additional fee should be
| charged to them. The commissioner of
! the general land Office has notified all
| local offices that where the claimant has
| been on the land five years from date
| Of entry the land must be proved up I'M
| der the homestead law rather than the
| Communication law; this requires the claim
| ant to pay 81 for land office fees, which
must be collected by the local officers
/ and retained as a part of their salary.
| Having commenced making proof under
/ the Communication law the officers did not
I observe the dates which created a five
| years term and necessitated proof accord
! ing to the homestead law. hence many
were enormously permitted 10 make proof
under the Communication law. This COM
| ing to the knowledge of the commissioner
| they were directed to make the collec-
/ ton. When the notice is received the only
way to do is to send the 81 at once 10 the
/ land office. Though the receiver IS tena-
! cious as to the payment Of all money in
| actual currency, We do not believe in this
! case that he viii object 10 postoffice mon
| ey orders. which are as good as the Uni
| ted States and cost nothing 10 get cashed.
