Important Decision Involvint
Rights Of Hemesteadsrs.

Washington, D. G., July fc. Times
Special3-Gensral Land Commissioners
Herman has issued circular e regis
tiers and receivers OF local land ofgicas
in which I've calls attention to an act II
the last congress which makes II possi- 7
bic for homesteaders to make accord
homestead entries. Particular attention
is called to the. fact, that a homesteader
who comnn,ted. lis.s:itry. that is to say,
a homesteader ..who resided on his
selection for fourteen months and then
paid the government rs an acre for
the land, is also allowed to make 8
second entry in lieu of remaining OH
the land five years. II this selection.
should also be committed he cannOt
make another entry.
'The.act under which the present law
is operative also provides that any. per-
son who has made homestead entry,
bat froin any cause has lost or forfeited
the same shall be entitled to the
benefit of the homestead laws as though
such former entry had not been made.
Therefore, says the commissioners, you
will not thereafter reject "A Homestead
application on the ground that the ap.
plicant cannot take the prescribed oath
that.he has not previously nade.such an
entry. or because he has perfected title
to land entered under the homestead
law, that he will be required to-show by
affidavit designating the entry formerly
made by description Of the land, NUM-
Der and date OF entry. or other sufficient
date, to enable the same to be modified
on the records Of this office.

WANT THEIR DUE,

Cheyennes Call on Governor Barnes With
Their Troubles.
Chief Washee and sub.chief Knight /,
Cheyennes, from the Cheyenne and
Arapahoe reservation. were callers up
on Governor Barnes this week. They
explained to the executive that about
a year ago the Cheyennes and Arapa-
hoes and the Kiowas and Comanches
held a great conference at which their
rusty hatchet was buried with pomp
and ceremony and pipe of peace wac
smoked. At the conference, said
Washeee, the Kiowas and Comanches
promised their brethren of the other
tribes that when the Kiowa and Co.
manche country should be opened 10
settlement they should give an allot-
ment to every Cheyenne and Arapa-
hoe child under the age of years
Washee and Knight had heard that
the Kiowa and Comanche country was
soon to be opened and they made the
journey TO Guthrie to petition the gov
ernor TO assist them in compelling the
Indians of that reservation to fulfill
their promise. The governor consid-
cred this kind of business little out
of his line, but gave them letter of
introduction to COL James +. Randlett
the agent of the Kiowas and Conan
ches, who, be said, cou help them If
any paleface could.
