Recent Changes in the Land Laws
Editor Estancia News:

Editor Estancia News:
BY late acts of Congress and in
struction just received, second
desert land entries may be made,
under same conditions governing
second homestead entries, which
are governed by the Act of Febru-
airy 1908. Desert entries can no
longer be made on unsurveyed
lands, but where the claimant has
settled upon lands and begun its
reclamation by mean of irrigation,
prior to its survey, such claimant
is awarded the preference right of
entry for ninety days after the
filing of official plat in the land
Office, the same as in
homestead cases. Heretofore
desert entries could not be
assigned in part but this can now
be done, provided the assignee is
qualified the same as though he
were making an original entry.

u. S. Court Commissioner.

BY Theodore Roosevelt.
II doubt if there is any lesson
more essential to teach in an in
dustrial democracy like ours than
the lesson that any failure to train
the average citizen in the behalf of
the things of the spirit no less than
the things of the body must in the
long run entail misfortune, short
comings, possibly disaster upon
the nation itself. 1t is eminently
right that we Americans should
be proud of our material prosperity.
1T is eminently right that we
should pride ourselves upon a
widely difused and eminently
practical system of education. |
believe in both, but neither will
avail if something else is not added
to the nation. The material pros
perity is essential as a foundation,
but it is only the foundation and
upon it must be built the super
structure of the higher moral and
spiritual life; for otherwise in
itself the material prosperity will
amount to but little.
SO with our education it is
necessary that we should see that
the child is trained not merely in
reading and writing, not merely in
elementry branches of learning
strictly Sc defined, but trained in
dustrially, trained adequately to
meet the ever increasing demands
of the complex growth OF our in
dustrialism, trained agriCulturally
trained in handicrafts, trained to
be more efficient workers in every
field of human activity. But they
must be trained in more than that
or the nation will ultimately go
down.
They must be trained to the
elementary branches of righteous
ness; they must be trained >, hat
it will come naturally to them to
abhor that which is evil or we
never shall e our democracy
take the place which it must and
shall take among the nations of
the earth.
Il do not believe ever in teach
ing that which cannot be practiced.
| do not want ever to hear a man
say to pay no regard to things in
the body of life, as it is today.
On the contrary, / would tell
every young man hat it is his
first duty to pull his own weight;
to take care OF those dependent
upon him. He cannot do anything
for others until he has first made it
certain that he will not be a burden
upon others. l want to see a man
able to earn his livelihood"

The SUMS Washington correspond
ent comments upon Mr.. Bryan's speech
al acceptance as follows
mr. Bryan dealt the Republican
party some terrific blows On some very
Vulnerable spots. Mr.. Bryan charges
Secretary TAFT with attempting u
amsnd the Republican platform,
which Is an admission that the trustz
and not the people wrote it, It Il
well known that a motion was made
in the Republican National Conven-
ton to provide for the physical vaIla
tion Of railroads az guide BY which
the amount OF stocks and bonds should
be issued by the roads. II is wen
known that the Republican National
Convention voted down this PROPOSE.
ton. A great hardship on the people
OF this country results from the fact
that when railroad is organized and
its stock Is sold, the money for that
stock goes into the pockets OF the
organizers and promoters as pure
graft. and then the crowd OF grafters
that organizes IL issues bonds FOR
building the road. So that all OF the
proceeds Of the stock As practically
stolen and the bonds 60 70 the build.
Ing Of the road BY this wholesale
stealing and grating. which has
characterized all the roads OF the
country, the people are compelled 10
pay rates for transportation high
enough to pay the interest on the
bonds Issued and dividends on the
stock, which is practically ali water.
III the railroads OF this country had
been built on honest principles, and
II they were now being built on hor.
est principles, the public could secure
transportation at one-half Of what they
are now paying. Mr.. Taft has seen
the evil Of this and has recently held
Joint debate with his own platform.
This only shows how completely the
Republican party has surrendered 10
corporations and trusts. Mr.. Bryan
not only stands to correct this mighty
evil, but his party is united at his
back, whereas the Republican party
is bitterly opposed to II as shown BY
their vote IN the Chicago convention.
which voted down the physical valua-
tion proposition by $50 votes against

party are opposed to IT,
