Reply TO Homestead Claimants"
Last week we received a commonica.
zion from Several Homestead Settlers
in which they dssre 70 know what time a
settler can have in WhiehHps4ake and
prepare a Homestead so that hssea1 i've
on il. And have procursdlh following
answer from c. G.. Dorsey, late Regis
ter:
The provision Of the Homestead Law
relative to residence is as follows;
"Src. 5. That if, at any time after
fling Of the affidavit, as required in the
second section of this act, and before the
expiration Of the five years aforesaid, it
shall be proven, after due notice 10 the
settler, to the satisfaction of The Regis
ter Of the Land Office. that the person
having filed such affidavit shall actually
have changed his or her residence. or,
abandoned the said land for more than
sir months at any time, then and in that
event the land so entered shall revert to
the Government"
Under this section it is held hat the
Homestead Claimants allowed six months
in which to make his actual settlement
and residence upon the Homestead, and
that a failure to reside upon the Home
stead for more than six months al any
time shall work a forfeiture, il case that
fact shall be properly shown.
The Commissioner of the General
Land Office, however, exercises a discre-
ton in all cases, and where it is made to
appear TO him that, by reason of sickness,
poverty, or other good cause the Home
stead Claimant has failed 10 make his
settlement within the prescribed six
months, or has been compelled TO remain
away from the Homestead for more than
six months, but that he has done all in
his power TO comply in good faith with
the provisions of the law, further time
will be allowed him. The General Land
Office has in all cases shown a DISPOSE,
ton to allow great latitude in the con-
struction Of the Homestead Act in favor
Of the honesl Homestead Claimant.

But my principal object, Mr. Editor, il
this communication, is to call the atten-

the present time. of selecting a Board Of
Aldermen possessing industry, energy,
and financial ability. The Legislature
al It's last session, passed an acrsnabling
stke City Of BrownvlEIe TO borrow money
On Bonds for the purpose Of grading our

advantageous terms requires the best f.
nancial ability we have IN our COmmuni-
" Such a Board the Republicans have
dominated. The party probably could
not have made better selections for the
council Judge Wheeler, ]. H. MOrri-
son. and DR.. Mcpherson, are gentlemen
whose long and varied experience in pub
lie capacity, peculiarly. fits them for the
position TO which they are chosen. The
success of Mcpherson and Morrison in

demonstrates what they can do. Should
the Democrats see ftto run an opposition
