WOULD MAKE CHANGE
Petition Asking Reduction of Land
Prices to Be Filed,

Reeder, N. D., Nov. 1S.-The petition
to place all Lennon land district land
at so cents per acre for communication
purposes. inaugurated by Sidney
Blekre. who lives southwest of Haley,
is being received very favorably by
homesteaders who are anything but
slow in placing their John Hancock
to it. Influential men of this district
will use their influence to have a bill
introduced in the next congress ac-
companied by this petition. to have
the land in the Lennon district west
of the 1o3rd meridian and north Of
the Cedar reduced from $1.25 to so
cents an acre. Should success crown
the efforts of the instigators of this
movement it will mean a great saving
to those who are proving up this
land. and the money thus saved to
them can be spent for great many
necessities which the homesteaders
need in the way Of farm implements
to make necessary improvements.

understood that the suggestion meets

would be willing to sacrifice them
