HELPS Claim Owners

A ruling was issued recently by
the general land Office at Wash
ington stating that continuous
residence would be required of the
entrymen. This was construed
by the department to mean there
should be no absence from the
claim and if there was, the one re-
turning to the land would be re-
quired to 1--we on the land fourteen
months consecutively from the
time of his return. This ruling
was a severe hardship on entry
men, in that it was practically i'm
possible to remain on the land
without leaving it for a certain
time, and every person who did SO
endangered the permanency of his
residence.
This ruling. however. has just
been rescinded by the department
in letter received from s. V.
Proudft, assistant commissioner
of the general land Office, which
contains the following statement:
You are advised that, as held
by the department, a homestead
entryman's absence from his claim,
pursuant to leave of absence duly
granted, does not break the con-
tinuity of his residence; that is, his
periods of residence before and
after said absence may be added
together in order to make the
period required for communication. .
Under this ruling those who
have been away from their claims
will not have the permanency of
their residence endangered and
will be able to prove up on their
land without the anticipated trouble
under the old order.

A peculiar accident happened at
Onida last week. The mail clerk
on the passenger running between
Pierre and Watertown threw out
the mail pouch. The clerk had
such pile of mail sacks in front
of him that he could not see over
it, and the first sack he threw out
of the car door struck a man who
was passing and knocked him
down. The mans mother, an old
lady of about 20, was closely fol-
lowing him and when he fell she
tripped over him and fell heavily,
breaking her arm. The couple
boarded the train, but the old
lady's injuries caused so much pain
that she had to be removed and
taken to a hotel where she has
been cared for by the railroad
physician. 1t is said the son will
sue the road in his mothers name
for IS, 900 damages.

Edwards Gives Himself Tn

M. M. Edwards, the Weta horse
thief and instructor in thievery,
for whom a reward of 1925. 90 had
been offered by the Stanley county
commissioners and his former
neighbors, telephoned from Pierre
and gave himself up to Sheriff
Huston last Wednesday afternoon.
When he took such unceremon-
ious leave of the Brule county dep
uty a few weeks ago and showed a
preference for walking rather than
riding in a comfortable auto, he
intended to 60 to Canada, and
started northward about a mile
west of the town of Pukwana.
According to his story, he left
his overcoat and overshoes in a
cornfield, and next morning just
at daybreak, arrived at the home
of an Indian on the Crow Creek
reservation, almost frozen. He told
che Indian he was homesteader,
and later that he was Govern
ment spy.
After sleeping a few hours he
found himself so stiff and sore that
he was unable to travel further,
and remained their eight days af-
ter which he walked to Wolsey,
and later took a west bound train,
his final destination being Pierre.
He claims that he was seized
with remorse and desire to recti.
fy matters so far as possible.

inspect, classify and appraise the
land. The land will be divided in
to five classes: First class agri-
cultural land, second class agricul-
tural land, grazing land and timber
land and mineral. The latter two
shall not be appraised and the
timber land shall be reserved for
the use of the Pine Ridge Indians.
One fifth of the price of the
land shall be paid in cash at the
time entry is made, the balance to
be paid in five equal annual pay
ments, and in case of failure to
make any of said payments when
due, the land will revert to the
government.
The people in this locality will
be very much pleased to learn of
these facts. While we have been
expecting it for some time, yet
to see the steps actually taken for
this opening makes it appear more
of a reality.
With Senator Gamble at the
helm we, of South Dakota can rest
assured the bill will receive due
consideration and be handled in a
manner second to none.

Fairplay: Miss Susan Cava-
naugh, OF Hardingrove, who has
been at the Pierre hospital for the
past six weeks recovering from an
operation, was able to be out and
came over to this side the last of
the week. She spent week visit
ing at the Pat Holland home in
this city before leaving for Hard
ingrove.
Milesville Citizen: Andy Doyle
met with quite a painful accident
Thursday evening while bringing
out load of freight from Philip.
While near Pfeifer's place on Plum
creek, walking by the side of
the wagon he slipped and fell.
The wheels passed over his hands
and feet, taking off three of his
finger nails and painfully bruising
his feet. He was brought home
by August Kahl and is laid up
with his injuries.
Cheyenne Valley News: When
ever there is a little snow furry
with a subsequent wind to toss it
around and pile it up some, a great
many people call it blizzard. -
If all the blizzard stories that ap
pear in newspapers and personal
letters were anything like a real
Dakota blizzard this country would
be deserted especially during the
winter months. Fact is--and a good
thing for us to-blizzards are
mighty few and far between liz
this country. The last one was
February 2nd and 3rd 1906. If you
were here that time you would
know the difference between a
snowstorm and a blizzard. The old
timers assure US that blizzards are
few but it is we'll to be prepared at
all times and not be caught in one
without adequate shelter for your
selves and stock.
Quinn Courant: The Courant
under, tands that one Harrison E.
Edwards, by the grace of Chaun-
cey Wood, assistant states attor-
ney," and by the grace of the yot-
ers of Pennington county to remain
an untitled pettifogger; proposes
to see that the county does not pay
the bill of the Wall Record for
election publications, for the rea-
son that the Courant editor, who
had the temerity to oppose Ed
wards election, is the beneficiary.
This is Edwards size, and only
confirms the feeling that the peo-
pie of the county did . wise thing
| in defeating him for election to
the important Office to which be
aspired. But Edwards is foolish.
Instead Of kicking Us for what We
told about him, he should be thank

ful for our not telling the things
that we knew, and might have
told. We let Edwards down easy.
Hayes Homestead A. X. Fow-
Ter, west of here, was the victim of
a painful accident week ago Sun
day. A team, hitched to hay
rack, backed down an embank-
ment of Plum Greek and in trying
to keep the horses from getting
hurt he was thrown fifteen or
twenty feet and received painful
injuries.
Fairplay: We are requested to
announce that Commissioner w.
.. Hopkins is not the father of
new GIRL as announced by one of
the county papers last week. w.
O. lives at Cottonwood, and is
bachelor and proud of it. W. "A.
Hopkins of Hayes is the father of
the girl and he is also proud, that
he is the father of a fine daughter
and that his bachelor friend. the
commissioner from Cottonwood
isn't.
Cheyenne Valley News: Last
Monday evening there was love-
ly moonlight; just an ideal time
for ride. j. B. Binder was out
at his ranch on the Creek north of
Davenport. experimenting the
work of completing the big dam.
He and Mrs. Binder got into the
large red car and started for town
to make Lovald's store a visit.
There is one pretty tricky place in
the road where it goes through
draw near large tree. They got
safely down this and started to
climb the south bank then the car
began to skid sideways into deep
ravine, owing to the fact that the
snow had gathered there. The oc-
cupants both jumped, not however
till Mr.. Binder who was driving
had applied the brake. When they
got to the car at the bottom of the
rayine it was chugging away mer-
rily and right side up, and no
damage done. They got in and
went back home.
Hayes Homestead: The resi-
dence of E. A. Walter, east of
town burned last Monday, the FIRE
being caused by a defective fiue.
Nothing was saved except a few
clothes and the loss is quite heavy
as Mr.. Walter had some expensive
furniture, including a piano and
the inside furnishings were of the
very best. He had hauled sand
and brick with which to build
new chimney and intended to COM
mence work on it that day. There
was no insurance.
