title to their lands. Action upon sew.
eral hundred of such proofs has been
delayed heretofore in the department,
and now, since the PRONUNCIATION of
the Executive Order referred to, the
local land officers have adopted the
practice of suspending all homestead
filings and proofs until definite in
structions should be issued by the in.
terror department as to the scope and
effect of the orders referred to.
We have considered the various
acts of congress and the said orders
with great care, and as a result make
the following suggestions and recon-
mendations:
l. That neither the order of with
drawal. nor the law under which it
is made. impairs the rights OF bona
fide homestead settlers. Such settlers
have full right to make Communication
proof and entry and to receive patent
promptly. unless their lands are
classed as coal lands or are protested
as containing coal, in which case they
can accept patent reserving the coal
to the United States, or can have op-
portunity to disprove the allegations
of the coal character of their lands
and insist upon a patent without res
ervatiOn.
2. That lands embraced in lawful
homesteads INFLATED prior to the date
of the order of withdrawal are ex-
pressly excepted from the force and
effect of the dithdrawal order by the
terms of the conservation act of June
%. 1910, and are in no way affected
thereby: that there is no authority or
justification for the suspension of ac-
ton on communication proofs upon such
hOmesteads, but they should pass
promptly to approval and certificate
of final entry unless tainted by fraud
or other irregularity.
3. That it is manifestly unjust to
bona-fide homestead settlers to sus-
pend action on their homestead
proofs, if they are willing to accept
the limited title with coal reserva-
zion. as provided in the act OF June
%. 1910.
1t is also unjust to delay action in.
definitely on final proofs protested
for alleged coal character of the lands.
Hearings should be provided promptly
in such cases in order that the nature
Of the patent to be issued in each
case may be ascertained with the
least possible delay.
I. That all final Communication proofs
where protests have been made solely
Oh the ground that the land contains
coal and the homestead settlers have |
filed consent to accept title with coal
should be released imme
1iately from suspension and passed |
for examination and approval for pa
tent. AS there are several hundred
under suspension, we earnestly sug-
gest that this recommendation be
specially considered for immediate &C.
lion.
5. We recommend also that the
contemplated by the
presidents withdrawal order of July
7, 1910, should be made with all pos
sible speed and that an adequate
'orce for this purpose should be put
nto the field Immediately.
Just now many of the chief officials

Armies Had No SentineIs in Old Tes

All through ancient history Oriental

was when Alexander the Great, &C.
companied by his chief officers, en-
tered the lines of the Persian army
the night before the decisive battle of
Arbela, and found that there was not
one of the sleeping host who observed
them. We can readily see, therefore,
that a panic might occur by sudden
night attack on an army so carelessly
guarded, and that Abraham's company
might easily have taken advantage of
