I August, 12th. 1888. Persons of foreign birth and parentage who have not been naturalized, nor declared their intention to become citizens of the United States, nor received honorable discharges from the military or naval service of the government, may purchase lands at private entry within the States and may acquire title to mineral lands within the Territories. It was probably the intention of the lawmakers, when enacting the law on this subject passed by the last Congress, to prevent the acquirement by aliens ef title to agricultural lands in the several Territories, and as the law has not been constructed by the courts or the Interior Department, it may be that the object has been attained. I am of opinion, however, that it is very doubtful whether the right to purchase land at private entry in the Territories if any can be found subject to such entry has been denied to foreigners by said act.

In ordinary cases of entry under the pre-emption and timber-culture laws, an alien who has declared his or her Intention to become a citizen of the United States may acquire title to public lands. An entry may initiated under the homestead law by one who has made the declaration of intention respecting citizenship, but the naturalization must be complete before title can be perfected. In the administration of the public land laws, an honorable discharge from the military or naval service of the Uiited States is considered as equivalent to a declaiation of intention to become a citizen so far as relates to the initiation of a claim. A declaration of intention by an entry-man, who dies before being fully naturalized, is deemed equivalent to minor children. An alien can acquire no rights, as against an adverse claimant, by settle Democrat office.
