died at Moaastlr of wouada received
when a shell struck the ambulance of
which ahe waa In charge,
ment of the Interior land offlce.
Mr. Tallman says tbat he has been
in conference with Representative
Slnnott and Raker and officials of the
reclamation service, and they have
agreed on a general plan of operation
for the opening of the landB which
will be put Into operation soon.
Part of the letter la aa follews:
'The first thing to do in this con
nection Is to complete the survey, and
we have agreed to take up these sur
veys out of their regular order, so
tbat same may be completed this
spring. In order that the landa may be
entered and put Into cultivation this
year.
"There will be no general drawing,
and no necessity for any applicant or
ontryman going to the laniLofflce Per
sonally. Hla application papers may
be sworn to before a qualified officer
in the Immediate vicinity of the lands.
In round numbers, there are about
5,000 acres of these landa to be open
ed, and It happens that they lie In
three land districts In two states. Ap
plication papers must be sworn to be
fore a qualified officer within the land
district. Arrangements have been
made to have the United 8tatea com
missioner qualified to act tu the vicin
ity of the lands In the two California
districts, and officer at-Klamath Falls
can ao act for the landa on the Oregon
aide.
"The matter of requiring the de
posit was carefully considered, aad it
was finally concluded, that those who
meant bualneaa would have no diffi
culty In making the deposit, and the
requirement would operate to restrict
the appllcatloaa to tboee who would
be capable of taking uji tka land.
There will be little delay la returning
the money to the applicant la case he
shall not be successful In getting the
land he applies for.
"Oa the data to be fixed the land
