the State Board OF Parole will ask Gov

as hardly probable that owen would try TO

WILL ALLOW RESURVEYS

Kinkaid Gain a Point.
RULING MADE MORE LIBERAL
Word "DisposaI'' VIII BE Construed
to Apply Only to Final Patent,
Absolutely Transferring
the Land.
0Frcm a sad correspondentl

WASHINGTON, May 27.-tspecial Tele-
gram.)-Following an effort made by SEN
ator Burkett, the general land office has
decided to have a survey made OF several
townships near Lewellen, Neb., if it is
found to be necessary. Some time ago
citizens in that locality asked Senator Bur-
kett to have this survey made, because
there were disputes constantly arising over
boundaries, as the monuments of govern
ment surN eys had been obliterated The
senator took it up with the department, and
the commissioner has Informed Senator
Burkett that as soon as funds are avail
able this survey will be made. 1t will
cover townships II, Is and 10 north, ranges
Al and 42 west Deuel. county, Nebraska.
Congressman Kinkaid has been sustained
by Secretary Bsllinger in his contention
for more liberal construction of an act
passed at the last session of congress pro-
viding for a resurveY OF public lands than
that accorded him by the department ten
days ago when passing upon his applca-
tion made for a resurvey of sixty-eight
townships scattered over thirty four coun-
ties of his district, whereby it was held
that of sixty-eight but eight of the town
ships would be entitled to consideration
for resurvey. The new ruling will make
the act much more effective TO promote
relief to many demands coming from home
steaders for resurveys, where original sur
veys have become obliterated.
Meaning of the Ruling.
The former holding accorded a resurvey
to but eight of the townships named in
the application. rejecting It as to the other
sixty. A rule adopted and observed by
both congress and the Department OF the
Interior is that before relief will be sf-
forded it must appear that not more than
one-half of the area Of any particular
township for which resurvey is sought
has been disposed OF by the government,
and even then the conditions OF the orig
inal survey must, upon investigation TO
be made by direction of the secretary of
the interior. be found TO warrant a re-
survey. In this case, the two holdings
turned upon the construction given to
the word disposal" the subordinate off
Ger having held that where the homestead
filing has been made for a time?, however
short, the government had disposed of the
land, and hence relief by resurvey would
not be given under the new act. The sec
retsry now construes disposal" to mean
