WashingtonIn order that 12 set tlers near Mcintosh in Polk county, Minnesota, may not lose their rights to approximately 400 acres of land now held by them, a remedial act was passed by the Senate. It has already pased the house. These settlers acquired the land, and later it was found that the govern ment survey of 1876 was* erroneous. Squatters took possession of some of the land.- The matter has been in the courts for some time. It was finally decided that the only way to correct the mistakes of the surveyors of the public lands was by an act of Con gress. The act provides that the sutlers who now find themselves on xmsur veyed land can acquire the same by the payment to the government of $1.25 per acre, provided they have ac quired, occupied and improved such land in accordance with the original survey.
