We learn that a statement Las been made by sorue person, and industriously industrious-ly circulated in different parts of the Territoiy to the effect that Congress has granted an extension of time to those who had filed pre-emption claims for land one year prior to the 25th of July nest. We have made inquiries concerning the matter, and find that no such extension has been made by Congress. And those who filed their pre emption claims for land at the time named, should distinctly understand under-stand that their filings expire on the 25th of next July. Persons who are not fully advised with regard to land matters should not give circulation to reports calculated to lull the people into in-to false security relative to their lands. |
