Lame Land Laws.
The secretary talked with the sena-
tors as to the advisability of amend
ing the timber and stone act and the
homestead law so as 10 prevent frauds
such as those which are being perpe-
trated, and they assured him of I cir
willingness to do all possible to tnat
end. The senators agreed with the sec
rotary that there have been fraudulent
practices in the administration of tho
land laws, but COntended that there is
no more fraud in oregon than in other
states. They referred to the entry of
land in lieu Of patented land within
forest reserves and said that, while
there had undoubtedly been some sharp
practices in that connection, the fault
was largely due to the law. Senator
Mitchell also pointed out that a stricter
inspection Of the area to be enclosed
in intended forest reservations would
do much to prevent the frauds com
planned of.
