Hope for Teacher. Yet.

Washington. Nov. 11.-Officials OF
the general land office say that the
Minnea polls school teachers must not
think that because their timber and
stone entries have been suspended they
are not to get the land. AS matter
of fact they are In the same fix as ev-
cry other entryman under the same law
and all are to be treated alike. The
order suspending timber and stone en-
tries in California. Oregon, and Wash
lngtcn, was issued by Secretary Hitch
cock, more than year ago, and in
structions were issued for special ex-
animation OF each case. Since that time
the land commissioner has passed on a
number of these entries and has recom-
mended that they pass to patent But
the secretary has not yet taken any ac-
ton and 1t will be some months before
the cases are disposed of.
Commissioner Richards has constru-
ed the law In way that will not pre-
vent one who has made entry for le-
ultimate purposes from getting pat
ent. The general land office has held
that the word speculation" which is
one Of the bars to a patent, does not
apply to one who has made the entry
with view to holding. his land for in
vestment and disposal at a profit at
some future time. and without collu-
sion with other persons or corporation.
Assistant Commissioner Fimple says
the cases of the Minneapolis school
teachers will be judged on the basis of
this decision, and IL it is found that
their entries were not for Speculative"
within this construction, they
will get patents.

Russia Is acting in good faith. be-
lieve that she will eyacuate Manchuria.
OF course, she will keep enough men
there to guard the railroad and her

the responsibility OF guarding Man
