Special TO Daily Leader.
Washington, Nov 20.--A report from
the register and receiver Of the local
land office al Dodge, Kan. 70 the gem
eral land Office here. states that the
number Of homestead entries during she
month OF October was greater than that
OF any moutn since June, 1857, al that
office. Il was learned at the general
land Office that the total number OF
homestead entries at this office in Oc-
tober was 329 II the same pace were
maintained for year the Of would
rival that at Woodward, @ =, which
had 1850 homestead entries during the
last fiscal year Minot. N d.. holds the
record with $40 homestead entries IN
the last fiscal year.
The increase at Dodge City. however,
set land office officials to wondering what
had caused such a boom there, as the
office has not been an important one
heretofore. They wondered II the rail-
roads or good crops. or both, were re-
sponsible for Il. and then they recalled
that this time OF year the railroads are
usually running their homeseekers' ex-
cursions to that part OF the country and
concluded that these excursions and the
good crops were both responsible.
IL was further commented upon that
in the past two years the booms in pub
lie land or homestead settlements, have
been an a certain district reihcnig from
the British Columbia line down to OKLA
hon4a. IN "a district just beyond the Mis-
souri, river.
