Surveyor General of Oregon Explains

The following ia an extract from a let
ter of the Surveyor-General to one of his
correspondents, making inquiries as to
thatbodaofprooeedure in asking for a
survey of public lands:
"The appropriation made by congress
for public surveys for the current fiscal
year (which commenced on September 1)
was 200,000. This under the law and
regulations, must be expended for 'town
ships occupied, in whole or part, by act
ual settlers with improvements; and the
surveys shall be confined to lauds ad
apted to agriculture andJines of reserva
tiona. tEKordeir tOnnoum .-vjo, -uo uu-
partment requirement is that applica
tion thereto should be addressed to this
office.
"The settlers living, npon the unsur
veyed lands fn the vicinity should unite
in a petition to survey. The petition
should be accompanied by a statement
showing the number of bona-fide settlers,
the oharacter ot tne unsurveyea ianu,
the "nature and value of the improve
ments and the area under cultivation
stating, if possible, the township. The ap-

ate Act (Second Session Act, Fiftieth
congress, chapter 411, page 9."9) to make
some modification of this restriction.
There are in some localities fine agricul

settlers, who at great loss and expense

all the facts as to the character
of the lands, and the kinds and
quality of the timber, in addition to the
information as to the number of settlers
and the characters of their improve
ments, should be fully presented for the
consideration of this office and of the
general land office.
The Hon. Commissioner will allow the
awarding of contracts for the survey of
timber lands when their value for agri
cultural purposes is well established, and

2500 square miles, has never, to the poai-
nto ftuuwicuu ui uiu icaiuoiita ui mo iur-

autlJn's'ffagWa'height of 6000 to 8000
feet, shut iu h vaBt unexplored area.
The Indians have never penetrated it,
for their traditions say that it is inhab
ited by a very fierce tribe, which none of
the coast tribes dared molest. Though
it is improbable that such a tribe could
have existed in this mountain country

to the white men. no man has ever
ascertained that it did not exist. White
men, too, have only -vague accounts of
any man having ever passed through this
country, for investigation of all the
claims of travelers has invariably proved
that they have only traversed its outer
edges.
Tlin ranof rrnnorAllw rflntfr! thRQrV in
-regard to this country is that it consists
nf rrmnt-.trniiova arrnrnninp irom mh m-
ward slopes of the mountains to a great
central basin. This theory is supported
by the fact that, although the country
around has abundant rain and
clouds constantly hang over tne
mountain tops, all the streams flowinc
toward the four points of the com
pass are insignificant, and rise' only on
the outward slopes of the range, none
appearing to drain the great area shut in
by the mountains. This faot appears Jo
support tho tneory mat me sjireama
flowing from the inner slopes of the
mountains feed a great interior lake.
But what drains this lake? It must
have an outlet somewhere, and as all the
streams pouring from the mountains
rise on their outward slopes it must have
a subterranean outlet into the ocean, the
straits or .the sound. There are great
discoveries in store for some, of Wash
ington's explorers.
A gentleman named Drew, now resid
ing ut Olympia, Btates that he has
climbed to tho summit of the eastern
range from3B0d'8 canal, and looking
down could- see great yalley stretching
toward the west. A party of railroad
prospectors claim to have penetrated the
interior, bntjould give no account of it,
and appear only to have skirted the outer
slopes, 10 or 15 miles from .Hood's canal.
A party of United States soldiers is said
to have traversed the coantry from Port
Townsend, but no data'are obtainable as
to what they saw.
