Great French Explorer.

Count Savorgnan De Brazza, a
Frenchman by adoption, though not
by birth, whose death occurred the
other day, ranks as one Of the great
French exporers and colonial organ
izers. In twenty years he explored
the vast REGION in West Africa now
known as the French Congo, founded
and maintained twenty one stations
among the 100000 natives living
there, organized large part of the
territory as a French colony, stop
ped wars between the tribes, estab-
lished friendly relations with them
and did all this without shedding
blood. In a sentence, this Is a sum-
ming up of De Brazzas work Vio-
lence played no part in his policy
and he never shot native.

LAND LAW CHANGES.
At Least Two Bills Will Be introduced
at This Session.

W Washing ton, Dec. AT least two
bills providing for important changes
in the land laws will be introduced AT
the approaching session Of Congress-
one VIII provide for the repeal Of the
timber and stone act and the other will
make it possible for purely agricultural
lInd i'll forest reserves to be acquired
by settlers under the homestead law
Representative Lacey. chairman of the
House committee on public lands, will
Introduce both Of these measures in
the House.
Sec. Hitchcock favors the repeal Of
the desert land law, but as Yet it is
not known that any bill providing for
the reneul of this law is in prepara-
ton. Opinion is divided among the
members OF Congress as to the advis-
ability Of striking this law of the stat
ut" books. Mr.. Lacey says it is true
there have been many frauds under the
descit land act. but that they occurred
almost entirely before its amendment
in 1921.
The money realized from the sale OF
land under the timber and stone act
goes into the irrigation fund. Conse-
quCntIy many radical friends of irri-
cation oppose the repeal of the act be-
cause OF the curtailment of irrigation
funds which would result. Money goes
into the irrigation fund and consequent
~ an attempt to repeal it would also
be opposed by many supporters of tbs
government irrigation projects.
