Senate and House Adopt Resolution
Fav0riug Settlers

Washington. Jan. 2a.-The house COM
mittee on public lands decided to-day to
make favorable report on the Gronna
resolution extending until May IS the time
when settlers who had filed on lands in
the Northwestern states shall be required
to take up residence on their claims.
Both the senate and the house passed a
resolution permitting settlers in the North
west to leave their claims for three months
because Of the extremely cold weather.
1t was thought at first that this resolution
would also extend to persons who had not
vet gone on their claims. but investigation
showed that such was not the case, and
another measure was prepared to protect
the interests of the homesteaders who are
unable to get to their claims because OF
unfavorable weather.
The president has approved the joint
resolution authorizing temporary leaves Of
absence for homestead settlers.
