An important opin- ion by the attorney general on the construe- tion of sections 3, 4 and 5 of the act of March passed, “To provide for the adjus ment of land grants made by congress to uid Wasninaros, No in the truction of railroads, and for the forfeiture of unearned lands, and other pur- POSE is made public to-night. The opinion is given in reply to questions asked by the tary of the interior. In substance, it is follows: The first section of the 1justment of grants t named directs the second section s for the resforation of title to the United States where the lands have been voneously cortified or patented to the rail- roads: the third section is *that if, in the adjustment of said grants, it shall appear that the homestead or pre- emption entry of any bona fide settler has been erroncously cancelled on account of any railroad grant or withdrawal of public lands from the market, such settler, upon appli- cation shall be reinstated in all his rights and allowed to perfect his entry by complying with the public land laws, provided that he has not located another claim or made an entry in lieu of the one so erroneously can- celled: provided also, that he did not volun- tarily abandon the id original entry, and provided furtner that if any of said settlers donot renew their application to be rein- stated within a reasonable time, to be fixed by the se ary of the interior, then all such unclaimed lands shall be disposed of under the public land laws by which, p of right is given to bona fide purchasers of said unclaimed lands, if any, and if there be no such pu then the bona fide scttlers living the The question submitted under this section was, *“What of purchuscrs is referred to by ‘the ex- pression. bon purchasers of said un- claimed lands i rights of the several to the lands referred to in the seetion suceessive in the ¢ er stated therein. The first in right is the homestead or cuption: scttler, whose entry has mfully cancelled.

The third question was: “The fifth scetion of smd act provides that wheraa railvoad company has sold lands not cony to or for the use of such com 1y, and where such lands ave, for any reason, excepted from the operations of © the grant of said company, it shall 1o lawful for a bona fide purch of from suid company to_ make payifient to the United States for suid land, and thercupon the patents shall issue to said bona fide pur- chuser.”” The question submitted under this section is, whether the proviso last quoted is confined in its application to lands within the primary granted lmits, or whether it applies 1o lands within indemnity limits of which the company had made sclection, but which has not been app 1. The attorney general say The first ion of the act in the use of the word it must have necessarily in- cluded both primary and indemnity linits in the adjustment, as it was doubtless intended that the adjustment should be a fuli and fiv one.
