Second Homestead
Entries.

Under order Of the Commiss-
ioner Of the General Land Office
at Washington second homestead
entries can under no circumstances
be allowed. unless the entryman
lost, abandoned. or relinquished
his first entry prior to the 2Sth
day Of April, 1904. This cuts out
many applicants for second home
stead entries, and both those who
relinquished their first filing for a
cash consideration. those who have
just grounds for asking a second
filing. In many instances q home
steader has been wrongly located
and under the. law, as it is inter
preted at present. he can have nc
relief. The matter will be taken
up at the coming congress, along
with other proposed homestead
legislation. Senator Kittredge has
prepared a bill granting second
hcmosteads to deserving appli-
cants and will introduce the same
in the Senate earl y in lhe session.
1t viii more than likely be passed.

by the government to cancel an
entry after the submission and ac-
ceptance Of proof by the local
land office. None of the particu-
lars can be learned, but the gov

At last Senators kittredge and

of the difficulty connected with
the distribution of federal patron
age in this state. President Roose-
welt tipped a coin and kittredgc
won the toss. Then the senators
chose alternately the offices they
wished their appointees to fill.
There about twenty offices to be
filled, in all of which the present
incumbcnts are holding over, be-
cause Of the failure of the two
senators heretofore to agree upon
successors. In accordance with
the terms Of settlement adopted, a
kittredge man will be appointed

Will suggest men for the place of

Proof Day Again

The last week in the month la,
rolled around again and has
brought with it to the United
States Commissioners Office the
usual number OF claimant, de
,rouS Of Offering proc. IN support
Of their homestead entries. This
month, as usual, the proofs were
set for hearing on q number OF
different dates. In all about fifty
claimants will appear, 4 number.
somewhat less chan that appearing
IN previous months. This is due
partly to the fact that the number
o. proofs offered during the win
ter months IS usually less than in
the summer months. The late
ruling Of the general land office
requiring fourteen months resi-
denco before application to make
proof can be accepted has also had
some influence. \ good many Of
the claimants offered proof early
IN the week and were able to get
away in time for a visit with
friends and Thanksgiving dinner
back east. Others viii offer their
testimony Friday and Saturday.
and so eat their Thanksgiving tur-
key in Stanley county this year.
December promises TO bring in
a goodly number of proofs. and
then the business will likely slack
up until spring.
