This gentleman n uuioubi wia. the well known attorrney at Ore gon City. Mr. Cowing was for many years register oi a ibou oincw m h.iuikt- V.U Plevaland. and sine coming to Oregon he has devoted him self almost exclusively ui mnu umw business, and probably tew men in the country are better quanueu wan uo w judge in this matter. Colonel Cowing says that every since the present secretary came into office, and especially since he came under the influence of Commissioner Sparks, he bas proceeded on the assumption that every person taking lands under the general land laws of the country waa r ......... ii.u.n iran.lnlnntlv. In or- trying w aci ...o... , - der to checkmate these supposed land- robbers be has aeviseu Binnso iuiu oaths, not provided for in the laws, for them to subscribe to ; bas sent out scores of "inspectors ' to nuni ior irauua, auu now for more man a vear aim """ not issued a patent for lands proved up on all upon the assumption that some body may get a tract of land he is not entitled to under the law.
