April rs, IDA
DEAR SIR:-
Ia your letter of recent date, you
ask whether you eau obtain an extern
sion Of time to make the payment due
on your land. In reply we quote you
the following excerpt of letter from
the Honorable Acting Assistant Com
missioner OF the General Land Office,
Washington, D. c., dated April "a,
1914:
"Senate Bill 1852, providing for an
extension of time as to the payments,
in connection with the Fort Barthold
lands in North Dakota, having passed
the Senate March 2S, 1914, it Was, on
April is, 1914, reported to the House
of Representatives by the Committee
on Indian Affairs, with an amendment
nsakeing its provisions applicable TO
she Rosebud and Pine Ridge lands in
Bennett, Mellette and Washabaugh
counties, South Dakota.
81 cannot advise you as to the pro
liability of the passage of the amend
ed bill; under its terms, as it now
stands, there would be allowed an ex-
tension OF one year for each install
ment, on payment of five per cent in
terest in advance, and further annual
extensions conditioned on like inter
est payments; but all payments would
have to be made within a period not
exceeding one year after the last pay
ment becomes due hy the terms of
the act under which the entry was
made.
Pending :he final outcome of this
legislation, the Land Department will
not cancel any of the entries involved,
on account of failare to make the pay
ments,as required by the law now in
force"
We trust this answers your inquiry
fully. Very respectfully,
EDWIN NJ. STARoHER; Register.

The United States Civil Service
Commission announces that while it

female stenographers and typewriters

mand Young men who are at least
l8 years of age and who are willing
to accept the usual entrance salaries,
which are $S40 and $500 year, have
excellent opportunities for appoint

rapid to those meriting it. The exam
nations, which any competent steno-
grapher should be able to pass, are
held each month in the year, texcept

the United States. Full infJrmation

Willing To. Help Grade Streets.

Tuesday of this week homestead
er living several miles from Wood
while talking with the Editor, causu
ally asked'us whel the people OF
Woodwere going to grade their streets
we told him we did not know but
hoped some action along this line
would be taken in the near future.
Then this homesteader showed us that
his heart was in the right place and
that he was made of the righ kind of
stuff, by saying that he would donate
a days work with a four horse team
either on the plow or grader any time
the people here got ready to grade
the streets. Now what do you think
of that! Don't you think, Mr.. Resi-
dent of Wood, that right now would
be a mighty good time to get busy on
this street grading proposition? We
wish that every resident of Wood
would manlfeStthe samc sort OF spir
it that this homesteader manifested,
then we would soon have a much bet
ter looking town. We are told that
the County Commissioners have ord
cred five new King Road Drags
for each Commissioner District and
that they areexpeeted to arrive about
the middle of May. If we grade our
streets now and then use the King
drag on them after every rain this
spring an summer we will have streets
to be justly proud of by next fall.
We believe it would be a good idea
for our Commercial Club to get busy
NOW on this'proposition.

ACCORDING TO THE
 PACIFIC FISHERMAN
Canning Operations In Alaska

Despite the fact that the sea- son of preparation for salmon operations in Alaska is well ad- vanced, @ few of the packers are not as yet ready to an- nounce their plans. It is fairly certain, however, that the Ad- miralty Trading ompany, Met lakahtla Industrial Company and Skowl Arm Packing Com- pany will not operate their canneries this coming season, and the same is probably true of several other companies. Of the canneries which did not operate last year the following have so far definitely decided to run their plants this year: Point Ward Packing Company, Point Warde; and Swift Arthur-Grosby Company, Hec- eta Island.

Julian had 200 tons of salt on the barge at the time of the sale, which he was obliged to dump overheard. Mir.
