TIMBKK CULTURE LAW.
Its Repeal More Far-Reaching Than
Generally Supposed.
Washington, March 4. The bill to
repeal the timber culture law is more
far-reaching in its effects than western
settlers generallv suppose. Besides re
pealing the timber culture and pre-emption
laws, it provides that homesteaders
cannot commute in six months, but
must live on their claim one year before
they can commute and pay the custoni
ary" $1.25 per acre, outside ths railroad
limits, or $2.50 inside the railroad limits,
and secure title to the lands. Another
important feature of the bill is that
which practically annuls all contests for
lands which have been initiated, before
final proof has been made by the settlers
in many instance now pending hefore
the interior department.. Speclat agents
of the land office have reported that the
proof made by the eettlere was tmsa'tis
f actory although the lands on which
proof has been made have been sold or
have been foreclosed under . a mortgage
given by the settlers to obtain money
for making final proof and payments.
ine act also provides tor the reservation
of sites for irrigation purposes and gives
right of way through all properties
owned by the United States for the
building of irrigation" canals and ditches,
Besides the provisions relating to the
acquisition of townsites and other prop
erty interests in Alaska, there is a modi
fication of the mineral land laws, which
will be of considerable benefit to claim
ants ; although there may be some diffi
culty in digesting the provision relative
to the cutting of timber in mineral
states. President Harrison refused to
sign the bill until there had been a modi
fication of that provision relating to the
cutting of timber in mineral states, and
this modification will seriously affect the
Black Hills district in South Dakota, as
well as other mineral states.
AlIAIN IT IS HYPNOTISM.
Two Young; ItelleTer IriTen to Self
Destructton. Cincinnati, March 4. L. Frauenthal,
of St. Louis, and Ernest Salinger1, of

found dead in their college room this

own lives, according to a preconcerted
arrangement. It is asserted by fellow
students that the young men must have
been demented on the Bubject of hypno
tism. Salinger for a long time bad been
a firm believer in it. Frauenthal for
merly scoffed at it, but latterly Salinger
had won him over, and he seemed to
have complete control over him. For
ome time-paetKraaenthal has bteii fall
ing off, mentally and physically, and
frequently complained of pains in his
head. They left a joint note asking that
their families be notified, but vouchsaf
ing no explanation, Salinger was still
alive when found, and said Defore expir
ing they had agreed to die together. His
diary had an entry saying be was going
to end his never-ceasing pain.

Japan Will Send no Coolie.
San Francisco, March 4. Hon. Sut
imi Chinda, head of the Japanese con
sulate in this city, in an. interview as to
the probability of Japanese laborers be
ing brought to this country, gave the
following views of the situation :
There is no danger whatever of there
ever being any large number of Japanese
laborers brought to America. Our gov
ernment especially provides for this
class of people and look out for their
welfare. We do not believe in sending
people away from Japan when we our
selves have large tracts of land awaiting
cultivation. The only laborers sent to a
foreign country went to the Hawaiian
islands at the special request of the
Hawaiian government, and contracts for
each individual so sent was drawn up
between the two governments.
ANOTHER OF GKOFF'S CHAXOKS.
The
Land- Commlsaioner PromnlnuR
Another Batch of Wisdom.
Dkpabtmest of-the Interior.)
General Land Office, I
Washington D. C. Feb. 23d, 1891. J
Register and Receiver The Dalles, Or.
Sirs : Your letter of the . 14th inst.
has been received. In reply you are ad
vised that the entries allowed by you of
the lands forfeited by the act of Sep. 29th
1890, were erroneously allowed, but hav
ing leen made they will lie allowed to
stand subject to any adverse claim that
may be asserted within the time - pre
scribed therefor by the law. The act of
Sep. 29th 1890 (2d section) aforesaid, pro
vided -that homestead claimants should
present their claims within six months
from, the passage thereof, but the act of
Feb. 18th 1891 extended the time to six
months from the date of the promulga
tions of the instructions by this office.
Purchases under the third section of
the Act of 1890, may be made within
two vears from such nromulcrtion.
Said Act does notreanire the filino nf a
declaration of intention to purchase, and
does not authorize the collection of a
fee from applicants to purchase. The
blank form of applcation and affidavit
forwarded is snfficient for the class of
persons, provided for in the 3d section
who settled on the land with the bona
fide intention of purchasing from the
North Pacific Co., when it should secure
title, but when money is paid a receipt
therefore must be issued, and a certi
ficate must be also issued as a basis for a
patent. The ordinary cash certificate
may be used, but a reference thereon
must be made to the fact that the pur
chase was made under the Act of Sep
tember 29. 1890.
The form of application and affidavit
for Homestead claims, enclosed by you,
will be satisfactory. Respectfully,
Louis H. Grofb,
Commissioner.
