ONE MILLION ACRES
Restored to the Public Domsln Old A. G 2. Land Grant Between Needles and
 Mohave Open to Settlers.

the pubic domain, to be subject to en- try under the general land laws of the
 United States within sixty days after the official notification to the public.
 By this wholesale recreation of pub lie domain, unprecedented in amount of land involved, there will be placed at the disposal of the public, subject to the governments land laws, huge and diverse tract, offering an oppor- tunity for great thrush of tillers of the soil to the commonwealth of Cali fornia.
 The million acres in question, com prising much valuable land, lie along the line of the Southern Pacific Rail- road between Mohave and Needles, on the Colorado River. Notification of the intended restoration has just been received by the local United States Land Office from the Department of the Interior, through Commissioner Richards of the General Land Office, and the officials here are busy preparing for the rush for the land which is expected to set in on the day the great domain is laid open to entry. It will take some busy days to get everything in readiness for the on- slaught, and the Land Office in the Potomac Block will be the goal of regiments of anxious inquirers" and sacks of communications, as soon as the news is spread. At least Uncle Sans worthies up there are putting themselves on the defensive in prepar- ation for such a siege, and not at all doubtful that the blow will fall heavily.
 Some time ago the United States Supreme Court decided, in the suit generally known as No. 600, that the United States holds an equal undivid- ed moiety in all odd-numered sections which lie within the conflicting place limits of the famous old grant made to the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad by act of July, 1866, and that the South ern Pacific Railroad Company holds the other equal undivided moiety therein. The Southern Pacific was called upon to make it's selections of secti ms, and chose accordingly. The sections remaining to the government, which are to be restored to the public domain, are the sections numbered 3, !, II, 15, l9, g, 27, 3l and B, in every township falling within the conflicting place limits of the grant, except where the railroad company has in the past sold such sections or portions of sec tiOns, in which case it will be allowed to perfect title for its grantees.
 Any entries on said lands which may have been allowed will be per mitted to stand, and may be perfected if no superior adverse claims are pre- sented; but all prior applicants, who have not been allowed to perfect, notice is to be given that. whatever the claims they assert, their applica- tiOns confer no rights on them, and l that on the day set for restoration, the | lands will be opened to entry and dis posed of without regard to such ap- plications, which shall be held to be rejected"
 Within two months the government, by this big breaking up of the old !" A. and F." grant across the desert, will make room for unnumbered new colOnists, whose settlements should be tributary to this city. Los Angeles Times.
