beginning that it would be,

efforts in this direction you
will enable them to enjoy six

HOMESTEAD RIGHTS
NOT FORFEITED BY
SALE in INSTANCES
New Rule of Department Will
Restore Many Relinquish-
ments in Trip.

Dallas, S. D., June Pin the mass
Of new legislation ground out by the
last congress-, was one small item OF
very specific interest to those who re
!inquished homestead filings prior to
February 8, 1911. The enactment was o
practical duplicate of a previous reg
ulation applying to entries cancelled
prior to 1908 and the only new effect
is to bring the new entry privileges
down to date.
The act approved February 3, 1911,
provides that a person who MADE en-
try before that date and who has lostl
forfeited or abandoned same without
receiving any consideration other than
The filing fee, and whose entry was not
cancelled for fraud, may make anoth-
pr homestead entry. The person ap-
plying to make such entry must make
g showing as to facts, which must be
:orroborated by at least one witness
familiar With circumstances.
On the face of this enactment, as
With the previous regulations along the
same line, it is not intended to apply
to those who may have sold their re-
,inquishments, but the real effect Is
not quite so general in application. The

act to give any new privileges to those
who committed prior to that date.
