GOOD NEWS FOR SETTLERS
No Longer Compelled to Pay
 for Forest Survey.


 
 The following from the United States Department of Agricul- ture, released for publication October II, will be of interest to settlers on National Forests in Arizona:
 Settlers on National Forests under the Act of June II, 1906, will no longer have to pay for survey, as they have had to in the past on unsurveyed lands, when the claim goes to patent. This relieves many settlers under the act, commonly known as the Forest Homestead Law, from a burdensome expense. Relief for this burden has been brought the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture, whereby surveys made by en- plOyes of the Forest Service will under the supervision of the Superviyor General so that they can be accepted by the General Land Office as final.
 Hitherto it has been necessary to make two surveys. Under the terms of the Forest Homestead Law, National Forest Land can not be opened to settlement un- less the Secretary of Agriculture tary of the Interior that it be listed for settlement; and listing is not possible until survey has been made. The Secretary of Agriculture has no authority to list any land unless an ex- imitation has shown that the land more suitable for agri- culture than for forest purposes. So when land is applied for, employees of the Department of Agriculture are sent to ascertain it's chafacter, and at the same time make survey of it by meteS and bounds if a survey is necessary.
 This survey, however, could not be accepted by the Land Department as basis for patent, because only surveys under the supervision of the Surveyor General can, under the law, be accepted as a basis for passing title. In consequence, under the procedure provided for when patent is sought to unSurveyed lands, the settler on land within National Forest has had to pay for a second survey. This has been felt to be especially hard because it subjected set tier on National Forests to an expense which settlers on sur veyed public lands do not have to bear Since it merely dupli- cated the work of the first sur vey, there seemed no reason why this first survey might not answer both for listing the land and for patenting it.
 The survey for listing, made by Forest Officers, has always been without expense to the prospective homeSteader. Un- der the new arrangement the field expenses of the survey will continue to be paid by the De partment of Agriculture, so that the applicant will merely be called on to meet the cost of checking up and plating the surveys by the Surveyor Gen eral. This will remove one of the greatest objections to the work ing of the Forest Homestead Law. The officials of both the of Agriculture and the Department of the Interior are pleased that the way has been found, through cooperation in the surveys, to simplify the cut out a duplication of work, and lessen the cost of settling upon agricultural lands within National Forests.

A STRONG NEW PLAY.

Augustus Thomas, by the writing
of his play entitled AS Han Thinks
"a great comedy which, in many re-
spects is greatly acted in its cur
rent presentation at the Thirty-ninth
street Theater-has provided an oc-
casion for earnest, thoughtful, crate
full praise writes William Winter in
tie current issue of Harper's Weekly.
The story is one of domestic trou-
bles, and of the eight prominent
characters, four are Jews. The play
is not, however, a tedious disquisition
upon race prejudices, but a far more
,forcibSe effect Is obtained by the
"adroit use of intercurrence and con-
trariety between members of the diff
ferent races"
1T is not in novelty of ethical ideas,
right and good though his ideas are,
that Mr.. Thomas has gained his mag
niticent stage victory" says this auth
or, but it is as a dramatist, making
grand use of representative types
of human nature to enforce the ascer-
tanned principles of true philosophy,
and instill them into the public heart"

The defeat of the Rams has made
the competition considerably more
interesting, for it gives Kaahumanu,
Punahou and st. Louis a chance IL
annexing the trophy, while before
this game the Rams seemed to have

to stack up against the Rams and

SCOTT AT ABBoTsFoRD.

This is a notable year in the his
tory of Abbotsford, for it is the cen.
tenary of Sir Walter SCOTS entry
into possession of the lands ever af-
terward closely associated with his
name. On May -, 1911, he wrote to
his publisher, James Ballantyne, that
he had "resolved to purchase a piece
of ground sufficient for a cottage and
few fields" That first purchase,
which cost $4,000, was a wretched
farm by the riverside, the house, says
Lockhart, small and poor, with a
common kaleyard on one flank and q
staring barn on the other, While in
front appeared a filthy pond covered
with ducks and duckweed, from viii oh
lie whole tenement had derived the
unharmonious designation of CLARITY
Hole"

and identifying the estate, and in Alb

Tweed over its pebbles" he breathed
his last on thesunny afternoon OF

AUSTIN WHITE
IN At FINISH

SAN FRANCISCO, May SACK
Neville's victory over Robin Hayne,
the Burlingame crack, and Campbell
d. Whyte's defeat at the hands of
Austin White were two of the sur
prises in the second days play of the
Northern California golf championship
tournament yesterday on the Ingleside
links.
There were other upsets in form
among the sixty matches played off
giving a very open aspect to all the
five flights. G. w. Kelham's defeat
of c. E. Maud in the championship
section was unexpected. Maud finish
ed only one stroke behind Hayne on
Saturday, when the Burlingame man
won the qualifying round in 70.
Two Claremont men, Neville and
Kales, are left to fight out the semi
finals of the championship next Satur-
day with two members of the San
Francisco Club, Beaver and Austin
White. On form, Neville looks to have
an easy match with Beaver. The CON
test between Frank Kales and Austin
White is expected to result in an ex-
citing match.

says it is not too much to hope that
