Of INTEREST TO SETTLERS.

And now the general land department
at Washington puts different interperta-
ton on the recent resolution that Senator
Hansbrough had passed-granting three
months leave of absence-than the author
of the bill anticipated. The department
holds that in case of Communication the three
months will have to be made up by the
settler. Commenting on telegram in a
recent issue of the Bismarck Tribune to
the effect that the three months absence
under the resolution which recently be-
came law, would be counted as con-
residence and settlers would not
be required to make up. Senator Hans
brough writes:
This information is erroneous, for
/: find after further investigation that
/: the absence under the resolution will
not be conducted as residence but will :
have to be made up BY subsequent resi-
dence. This is the construction that
has been placed by the department up
on the words shall not be deducted"
However, it is unreasonable to suppose
that. in the light of all circumstances
leading up to the passage of this resolu
ton. the department would so construe
it that it would be held to break the
continuity of the settlers residence,
requiring thereafter fourteen months
continuous residence. and l do not be-
lieye that it will be 80 constructed.
There has been considerable confusion
and misunderstanding as to the mean
ing of the provso in the first resolution
and thought had better make this
explanation to you in order that you
minght correct the erroneous impress
sion which has gone out to the effect
that absence under the resolution does
not have to be made up.
Suchaan Interpretation by the depart
ment is manifestly unjust. If this inter
probation is adhered to it would have beer
better for many settlers if no such resolu
ton had been passed. Three months alb
sence, under the climatic conditions exist
ing this winter. would not have jeopardisee
the claimants rights on a five year proof
and it is doubtful if it would have effected
the claimant who anticipates commuta
ton.
1t is to be hoped that the department
will not hold that the three months absence
provided for shall break the continuity o.
the settlers residence.
