Tli* general land office to making every
•ffort to tret the land office* King Fisher
Station and Gnsttncp ready for busing
on that day when Oklahoma will be
opened, but it is going to be pretty diffi
cult. No poetofflce fa open at either
place, At Gustino a poetofflce has been
ordered, but the postmaster has not yet
filed his bond and there may be some de
lay in getting the office opened. The
gcuerul land office has sent a quantity Of
documents to the Oklahoma offices by
.. moil and they are stuck somewhat in
Kansas. Unices tliey get through pretty
eoon a duplicate shipment will have to be
made by express. The oirice here is not
informed whether KLigViaher Stage Sta
tion posi>«eMM a *uigle building of any
kind. It b t*.enty-live or thirty miles
from a railroad and the facilities for
building houses are not the best, but if it
b learned in a day or two that there b
not an edifice in the future metropolis of
Western Oklahoma tlie general land of
fice will bur a portable house in Caldwell
and ship it m sections and set it up some
time next week.
No end of trouble fa anticipated from
the enormous rush into this very limited
tract There are only about 10,000 quar
ter sections, and about 1 JO,000 people
have made all their arrangementa.for
invading the promised land the
nient the president of the United
States drops the hat. It fa true that
, many of these will be prospectors and
speculators, and money lenders of all
kinds; but the most reasonable estimate
that can be made puts about five claim
ants on every quarter section. For every
well watered and well situated quarter
section there will be a dozen claimants,
ahd they will all initiate their claims so
nearly simultaneously that, as the only
witnesses will be rival claimants, it will
be simply impossible to determine who
located first, and hundreds of dispute
will have to be settled by a primitive ap
peal to force.
The homesteaders who first make their
settlement, uml take their time about
making their filing, will find themselves
in contests with other men whose entries
were tiled earlier. The homesteaders
who «n #w to the tend office rrffi find,
whsii they get back to their coveted 100
acres, that two or throe ntlior men are in
|msession and quarreling over it.
will be (lie wiser course for every man
who wants a slice of Oklahoma to gel on
to It at the earliest possible moment on
April 22, and devote himself to making
a burrow or a hut, and making up a little
ground for a crop. He luw three months
M ter making his settlement in which to
e his entry, and the most essential
thing for 1dm to do fa to make hfa settle
ment.
Besides a register and a receiver at
each land office there will be for the pres
ent an inspector, and there may be a
special agent. Every effort will be made
to transact the business at the land offi
ces rapidly and accurately, but some
where l»tweon four-fifths and nine-
teuths of the people, who are go*ug into
Oklahoma a week from next Monday
will get no land, because there will not
be enough land to go around. Tliey will
have to do something, and they will be
certain to camp down upon all the unoc
cupied land of the civilized Indian tribes.
It I* very doubtful if the government
would attempt to drive them off these
lands with the bayonet, and notliing less
than the entire army could accomplish
It. Tli# boomers will get the land and
the aoverument will probably settle with
the Indians.
The Cherokee outlet, containing some
6,000.000 acres, may be thrown open by
the president's proclamation as soon as
the commissioner* and the Indiana can
agree on the terms of cession: and as this
tract fa three times as large a* the portion
of Oklahoma that will 1* opened on the
88d, it would, if opened, promptly afford
relief to the throngs that will be inside
Gkfaliomain two weeks.

London, April 1!.—Evictions upon a
wholesale scale are threatened on the
Oiipliant estates in Donegal, where the

Father McFadden and the Rev. Father
Stephens. The evictions are to commence

conveyed by the following telegram,
which has been jiust received from Father
Stephens at FiUearragli:
_ “The war of Extermination fa about to
be resuimh. - Seventy families, compris
ing about 8-10 individuals, are to be
thrown on the roadside. What inUmuiflos
the sad situation immensely is that these
poor people have been brought face to
face with famine, owing to the failure of
the potato crop. The families to be evict
ed hare been providing s#ed from money
supplied by private ohurity. Father Mc
Fadden, tlie pariah priest of many of the
people to be evicted, fa a prisoner in the
Derry jail, and I must leave the district
to attend my trial under the coercion law

therefore,that the time fa specially chosen
by the authorities when they believe the
people will be left defenceless.”
