Tee Siletz Indian Reservation, which
«as formerly a part of this county, is
attracting a great ileal of attention be­
cause of the prospects of its being open­
ed to settlement soon. Nobody need
worry yet awhile, as it will be at least
60 days before settlers can go there, and
there is nothing worth much to white
men after they get there < ol. Miller,
register of the hind office, has been
bored almost to death with inquiries
from jieople who are so foolish as to ex­
pect to get line farms in that region, ai d
in order Io satisfy anxious inquiries, he
has given out the following statements,
which were first published in the Ore­
gonian :
The law under which the Siletz reser­
vation is to he opened says that tlie sec­
retary of the interior shall, under such
regulations as lie may prescribe, “open
said land to settlement after proclama­
tion by the president and 60 days no­
tice.” It is presumed that the notice
will be given through the regular chan­
nel, mid that after such notice is pub*
liehed from tlie land office here there
will Ire 60 days in which intending set­
tlers may make due preparations for en­
tering their claims Sixty days’notice
being required by lhe law, the announce­
ment that the reservation would be
opened next Tuesday must he a mistake.
Not more than a third of the reservation
has yet been surveyed, so far as the rec­
ords of this land office show .
The Siletz leservatiou is 1'4 miles long»
north and south, mid from 14 miles at
the north to 17 miles at the south in
width. Of its 366 sections there are ap­
proved plats of only 114 sections now in
the land office

two-thirds is not so desirable as the land
on the coast ami rivers, and mu. h of it

The law
provides as follows for the disposal of
the vacant lands of this reservation:
".Mineral lands sliall lie disused of
under the laws applicable thereto, and
the balance of tlie land so ceiled shall be
dis|a>sed of, until further provided by
law, under the townsite law ami tinder

law. Provided, however, that each set­
tler, under and in accordance with tlie
provisions of said homestead laws, shall
at the time of making his original en­
try, pay the sum of 50 cent» |>er acre in
addition to the fees now require.! by law,

tablished by such evidence as is now re­
quired in homestead proofs as a prere­

The townsite law authorizes lira presi­

junction of rivers, important |s>rtHge-
