SINK WELL
HOMESTEAD YOURS

WASHINGTON, d. G.. Dec 21.-
A new plan TO encourage settlement
in the arid and semi-arid regions Of
The west has been advanced by Rep
resentatiye Bonynge of Colorado In
brief, he proposes that every citizen,
Fl years of age or over, who shall
sink well and secure sufficient
flow Of water 70 irrigate at least IN
acres Of land on any quarter section
Of the public domain shall be enti-
Tied 10 patent for the whole quar-
ter section. or lesser subdivision, as
the case may be, ON making proof
shat he has actually reclaimed the 10
acres. a bill 10 this effect has been
introduced in the touse, and will b.
called up for consideration after the
holiday recess.
The bill is so worded as to pre-
vent a man getting more than one
quarter section under the proposed
law, and safeguards are thrown out
TO prevent speculation Persons de-
string to avail themselves or this
law, should it be enacted, must de-
posit SO in the local land office, to-
gether with an affidavit Of good faith,
before they can 90 upon the land to
sink the we'll The water must be
developed and put upon the and with
in one year from the time of making
application. or the entryman forfeits
his rights Where application is
made for only SO acres the fee is
only S.
If, within one year, the enJryman
sinks his wen and gets the necessary
water. his land will be inspected by
an inspector Of the department and
if the inspectors report is favorable,
patent win be issued.
The bill does not require residence,
as stipulated by the homestead law,
but it is presumed that an entrymar
taking advantage Of this Nv would
necessarily reside upon the land dur
ing he time he was striving for water,
and, having obtained it, would re-
main to take advantage of his early
efforts.
This is an entirely unique PROPOSE
ton, so far as congress is concerned.
and the bill, or some modification,
may be enacted, especially as it will
lead to the development of much land
that would otherwise lie idle.
