The Fargo Forum has it that con-
siderable railroad building III North
Z Dakota will be done next year. One
,tf the extensions which rumor says
will be made, If the crop prospects
warrant it. will be the N. p. line from
iMcHenry to Obcron and northwest
into the Antelope Valley; also, the
extension west from Bowdon. The
500, also, it is said, expects to con-
:tinue the extensions to Fargo, james
town and Bismarck, already proposed.
The Northern Pacific is not unlikely
to geta line west from Eigeley or
Dickey to the Missouri river, to bold
the cattle trade, and it is reported
that the Milwaukee is figuring on
extending its lines from Edgeley
north. There is a great deal of unoc-
cupied, undeyeloped country in North
Dakota, and the present systems
operated in the state will not let the
opportunity escape to get their lines
into well paying country.

! ond homestead entry is a good one. He
/ says: Dennis Flynn has introduced bill
in congress with reference to homestead
matters that the Herald don't like. 1t
provides for a second homestead entry.
As the law now stands, most any man
who has made a homestead entry and
! for good reasons failed to perfect title
thereto, may, after a proper showing,
make another filing. Such applications
are considered on their merits and as
| special cases. But the bill goes on and
permits all who committed homesteads
| prior to the passage of the act now pend
ing in congress, TO make a second home
stead entry, and that is the part that the
Herald does not like. It offers no bou-
quets to the patient and permanent set
tier who acquired the title to his land by
reason Of five years residence. The Iogi-
cal conclusion is that the man who COM
mutes either has plenty of money or is
confronted with a good chance to sell his
land, hence the haste to acquire title,
and when he acquires title by such
means he eXhausts his rights completely
Such men should not be selected as the
recipients of special congressional fay
ors. There is no just reason extant why
the man who commutes should be given
an additional right over and above the
patient five year resident who takes land
with a view of making it his permanent
home The man who commutes is tran
sient The Herald is in position to COM
ment fairly and intelligently on such a
law, and knows from personal observa-
ton and an intimate knowledge of the
real conditions, that the man who COM
mutes should not be given an additional
right. He is not entitled to it. If, with
reference to additional rights, a distinct
ton is to be made between the man who
commutes and the one VINO lives on the
land five years, all favOrs should be be
slowed on the latter. He is the most de-
serving, and the simple conclusion is that
present conditions should not be dis
turbed. Dennis Flynn, almost invariably
right and active for the best interests of
Oklahoma, has, in this particular in
stance, sounded the wrong chord. The
proposed law, in substance is: That all
who filed prior TO the passage of the act,
but for any cause lost or forfeited same,
or for any cause failed to perfect or Sc
cure title, may make second entry.
That part is not Objectionable. The other
part permits those who acquired title by
what is known as Communication of home
stead. under section 1901. Perhaps the
bill viii not materially benefit many in
eBaver county, but the latter part of the
bin is wrong When it is optional with a
settler whether he lives on land five
years or commutes, if he elects to COM
mute and acquires title by that method,
his rights should be forfeited as COM
pletely as the settler who employs the
five year process, and the date of COM
mutation should not be taken into con-
sideration. Latter day settlers are al
lowed 80 acres. and no more. and those
who have already acquired title to 100
acres of government land by reason OF
the communication clause or otherwise
should be deemed out of the race"

P0NCA CITYS LAND TITLES
Settled by Failure Of Plaintiffs in the
ENorr1nuns, Suit

Guthrie, O. T., Jan 1.-THE last day
of the ten-day limit allowed B. S. Barnes
and John Dalton to file supersedeas
bond of $4,000 in their suit against J. W
Lynch and the Ponca City Land and I'm
provement company, expired yesterday
and in default of bond the mandate of
the supreme court of the territory was
issued out of the clerks Office today.
This is the elimination of one of the
hardest fought legal contests ever waged
in Oklahoma, the amount of property in
volved being about $159oo0. The recent
decision of the supreme court vests the
title to all this property in the Ponca
City Land and Improvement company,
out the court allowed the plaintiffs ten
days in which to file a supersedeas bond.
AS stated above, the time in which to
file this bond expired yesterday and the
mandate of the court was accordingly is
sued today. This will probably be an
end to the long-drawn-out litigation, and
enables property holders on the lots for
merly in dispute to acquire clear title
