THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 1919. REFUNDS DENIED ON LAND GRANTS - '-it. , Land Office Not to Order Return of. Cash Paid for Rights ort Northern Pacific Line. . Washington, June 27. The commis sioner of the general land -office ha Informed Senator Chamberlain that his bureau .probably win adhere to Its former rullne denying the claims for return of half of the cash preemption money paid for land along the line of the Northern Pacific railroad grant be tween Walla Walla and Portland, as to even numbered sections. The supreme court recently decided In the ease of Laughlin vs. United States that refund should be made of the excess over 1.25 an acre for odd numbered sections,- these being the sec tions originally granted the railroad. The railroad never filed a location map, and the grant was afterward forfeited. The court gave no opinion as to the even numbered sections, which were not Involved in the case. Settlers on the even . numbered sec tions have contended they should be accorded the same treatment, as the government Increased the price of the even sections because of the increase which had been ordered by law for the odd section 8. The land office expresses a willing ness to make a formal ruling If claims are presented on the even numbered sections, but practically forecasts an adverse decision, which will make ft necessary- for such claimants to seek a decision through the federal courts. 1 Seam Squirrel' New - t n t-i name ior famous 'Cootie' of A.
