day as the negotiations proceeded. The
State Department has regarded several
of these propositions as extremely un-
wise and undesirable, but has not felt
that this fact justified the United States

called to the provisions of Sections

titled"An Act for the relief of the
Colorado Cooperative Colony; to
permit second Homesteads in cer.
tain cases." approved June 5th,
1900 Public No. 24S), a copy of
which sections hereto attached.
Section 2 provides that any per-
son who has heretofore made
a homestead entry and committed
same under Sec. 230l, R. S., and
the amendments thereto, shall be
entitled to the benefits of the
homestead law as though such
former entry had not been made,
but communication under Sec. 23Ol
R. S., shall not be allowed, of an

entry made under this section.
Section 8 provides that any per-
son who prior to the person who
prior to the passage of this act,
has made a homestead entry, but
from any cause has lost or forfeited
the same shall be entitled to the
benefits of the homestead laws, as
though such former entry had not
been made. Therefore you will
not hereafter reject q homestead
application on the ground that the
applicant cannot take the prescrib-
ed oath that he has not previously
made such an entry, OF because he
has perfected title Under Sec. 23O1
r. S., to land entered under the
homestead law; but he will be re-
|quired to show by affidavit desig-
mating the entry formerly made by
description of the land, number
Iand GATE OF entry. or other SUM-
cient data, to enable me to iden-
tify the same on the records of this
ofice, and that it was forfeited, OF
commuted as the case may be,
prior to the passage of the act.
Tn any case where the former
ENTRY was made subsequent to the
date of the act, the rule given on
page 10, circular Of July II, 1899,
remains unchanged. It will be
observed that an entry made under
Sec cannot be perfected by com
mutation under Sec. 2301 r. S
The fact that applicants have pur-
chased, under the provisions Of the
act of March End, 1869 Us Stat
87l,) lands patented to the Flat:
head Indians in Montana, shall
not be held to have impaired OF
exhausted their homestead rights
by reason of any such purchase.
