Entering Town Sites.
The following correspondence will show
that the act of the last Legislature of th
Territory, designating th County Commit
sinners a the proper persons to enter Town
Sites, is not recognized by the Commissioner
of th Land Office.
It is a question of doubt whether the Judges
of Probate, or the United States Judges, can
be regarded as "Judges of the County Court."
A soon as that doubt is removed, notice wl.l
be given. In the mean time no entering of
town not incorporated can be made.
A eopy cf the act of the last Legislating
will be placed in the hands of th Commis
sioner, and, under the circumstances, th en
trie already made may be confirmed. '
