LAND is I'M DEMAND.
Many Contests Pending for Rights is
Houo%ru


Washington, Aug. 22-Already the gen
era land office is realizing by the numbers
of contests on file in the office that the
recent lottery of lands in the Rosebud
country was not all Sunshine and sum
mer weather." The first of the contest
cases growing out of the recent Rosebud
opening We're disposed of by the acting
assistant attorney general. Three cases
were disposed of, two decisions refused to
grant the prayer of the contestant, while
the third gave the contestant the right
to file on the land in question
1t was asserted that these cases were
the result of jealousy and were brought
by persons not fortunate enough to have
drawn lucky numbers. 1t was stated that
the contestants had legal right to con-
test claims If they had knowledge of the
lack of proper qualifications on the part
of those successful in the drawing, as, for
instance, disappointed homeseeker may
know that man who has been successful
in the darwing does not fill the require
ments of the law, which prescribes that he
must be 21 years of age, the head of a
family and an American citizen. If posi-
tive proof of any of these points can be
produced the contestant Is at liberty to
settle upon the homestead and contestee
by reason of his failure to show the quail
fcations required by law, is out the
amount of money he expended to enjoy
the land office that all contest cases would
be settled Immediately thereby preventing
an accumulation Of such cases, which
would work a hardship not only to those
most interested but also to the govern
ment, which desires a speedy settlement
of all claims growing out of the opening OF
the Rosebud reservation.
