MARSHALL 's-RELIEF BILL

According to Bismarck Tribune,
Congressman Tom Marshall, in
speaking of the legislation which
is intended to relieve those entry
men who have filed homesteads on
lands which were afterwards class
flied by the government as contain
ing coal, said:
''There seems to be graf confus-
ion and misunderstanding sur
rounding this whole question.
When large tracts in North Dakota
were set aside by the geological
survey as being possible within the
coal belt, the commissioner of the
general land office stopped the is
suance of all final receipts and pat
ents until each claim could be ex-
amined by a coal land inspector. l
urged upon the department the
great Importance of having an adj
equate number of coal land inspect
ors assigned to North Dakota in
order that the land might be ex-
amined without delay and the
proofs put through. The depart
ment acceded to the request and a
force was put in the field and the
examinations were brought practi-
cally down to date before the cold
weather. The coal land inspectors
reported mo coal" in very large
percentage of cases and these en-
tries will 60 to patent in the regu-
lar way and in no wav effected
by the proposed legislation, but in
many cases the inspectors reported
the land as of local character. !"
It is we'll known that under the
law homestead entries are intended
to be confined to lands which are
chiefly valuable for agriculture
and the entryman makes what is
known as mineral" afidav-
it when filing.
''This then, is the condition:
The coal land inspector having re-
ported certain homesteads as local
in character" and the department
hold the entries for cancellation.
The entryman is entitled to a hear
ing where he can bring in evidence
to prove that there is no coal of
commercial value underlying his
claim, in which case he will get
full patent, but in the event, at
the hearing, his land was found to
be Of coal character, his entry
would certainly be cancelled. And
these and only these, are the cases
that l am concerned about and the
only cases that will be effected, in
any degree, by the proposed legis-
lation.
''The original bill that l intro
duced was crude in form and in
tended, as was announced at the
time, only to open up the subject
before the committee and it has at
no time, been my idea to either
take away or abridge any Of the
rights homesteader now has, and
the only measure that has been
called up or considered by the
committee is the Mendell bill,
which in general way, eKnbodies
their views. Under this proposed
legislation, in cases where land had
been declared as of coal character,
the entryman would have precisely
the same right he has now to q
hearing in order to determine if
the coal, if any, is Of commercial
value or not. If, at the hearing,
q decision is rendered in favor of
the entryman, he would be granted
a full patent exactly the same az
under the present law, but in
cases where the lend was held tc
be Of coal character he could, il
desired, secure q patent to the sur.

sible, provided they preferred that
to no title at all.
Under the decisions of the SUI
preme court it seems quite possible
that an entryman, in good faith,
having complied with the home
stead laws as to residence and cul-
tivation, could compel patent to
be issued to him, coal or no coal.
7 certainly hope so. If deemed adj
visable test case should be tried
out promptly. l would like to see
the government made to carry out
its agreements as we'll as our
homesteaders who have been out
ragged by the conditions and put to
untold annoyance, worry and ex-
pense, and my sympathy is alto
gether with them and I shall do my
utmost to secure them full rights
and protection.

preference right to buy the coal,
the right to mine it for domestic
purposes and the right to collect
damages caused by prospecting or
mining coal on his land, etc. etc.
Some people who felt certain there
was no coal on their land might
prefer to take a patent to the sur
face rather than go to the expense
and trouble of a hearing, but they
would be, in no wise. compelled
to do so. In fact, they would be
in the same position as they were
before the passage of the legisla-
tion, except that they would be
given additional privileges and
protection whereby, in no event,
could they lose their homestead
entirely, but could retain title to
the surface.
81 have always believed that the
government land should have been
classified before instead of after
entry and l say emphatically that
the government is wholly to blame
for permitting, and even encour-
aging, filings on lands that contain
coal, and, having permitted such
filings. it is working untold dam
age to our homesteaders to refuse
them full patent. | stated plainly
before the committee that, in view
of the fact that the government
had permitted these filings and of
the utmost good faith Of the entry
men. the homesteaders ought to be
given full patents and have intro
duced bill providing for that,
which is worded as follows:
4" Be it enacted, ETC.. that
wherever an entry has been made
in good faith on lands in North
Dakota subject to homestead entry
which were afterwards classified as
containing coal, such entry shall
be deemed valid, and upon proof
Of full compliance with the home
stead laws as to residence and i'm
provements a full patent shall be
issued to such entrymen.
and l shall make strenuous
fight to secure a favorable report,
but there is serious opposition
to such legislation because of the
fear Of giving away valuable coal,
deposits and the opposition is made
more serious by the coal land
frauds in other states.
The next best thing will be
law relieving the conditions as
best we can and comforting addi-
tional rights on the homesteaders,
but under no circumstances, taking
away or abridging any rights they
now have.
whether the new Legislation is
passed or not my advice to the
homesteaders whose entries are
held for cancellation on account of
being|o coal character, is to de-
mand a hearing and fihgt hard.
The homesteaders should unite and
make test cases in each neighbor-
hood or township and having prov
ed that the coal is of no CONNER
cial value in these cases the others
might withdraw by the govern
ment, or at any rate would be
more easily tried out. From my
knowledge Of the country, l believe
all the cases can be cleared up at
a hearing in favor of the home-
steader, in which even full pat
ents would issue in regular order,
but in cases of those entries where

years. AT first il was in his bones, but
after O while it was in the flesh and
finally running sores broke out on his
legs, from below the knees 10 the ankles.
There are no words TO tell all the dis
comfort and great suffering he had TO
endure night and day. He used every
kind Of remedy and three physicians
treated him, one after the other, with
out any good results whatever. So
one day happened to read about
Cuticura Remedies. i asked him IL
he would not try them. No. said he,

now. The next day | ordered five
dollars worth Of Cuticura Soap, Cuti-

He began 10 use them without conf
dence but after three weeks all the
sores were dried up. The burning
fire stopped, and the pains became
bearable. After three months he was
quite well. Two years later the pains
and sores came back after he had been
working hard and had taken cold.
But as soon as he used Cuticura again
Il cured him. Two years ago | used

ROMAN CATHOLIC
CONGRESS FOR MONTREAL

Rome, Mar. Announcement was
made today that a great world wide
Roman Catholic Congress will be held
in Montreal next year. The Euchar-
istic sessions will feature the gather
ing and will attract influential pre-
lates from all over the world.
The Congress will probably be held
duling the month of September, and
will be divided into two great sections
one celebrating in the English tom
que while the official language of the
second section will naturally be the
French tongue. Although as at Lon
don there will be papers read and
speeches made in other tongues be-
sides English and French 1t is under
stood that the representatives from
the Latin states, so-called, will, as
much as possible, use the Frnch Ian
guage.
Montreal. therefore, is particularly
well adapted for such a function for
there are perhaps more people who
understand both the English and
French languages here than in any
other city of its size in the world.
