Recent j. s. Land
Office Decisions

A withdrawal of public lands
for forestry purposes creates an
adverse claim, which defeats the
right Of any mere subsequent
settler.
Temporary absence on the
part of the entryman on account
of climate conditions have been
excused by the Department only
where the circumstances sur
rounding the entry clearly indi-
cate a bona fide intention to
maintain a home upon the entry.
An additional entry Of lands
under the enlarged homestead
act Of February 10. 1909, must
be contiguous to the original en-
try.
Act Of June 8, 1880, making
provisions for settlers on public
lands, who thereafter become in
sane is to be construed as an act
only for the relief Of settlers. !"
Itprovides for the relief of per-
sons who become insane during
the time of their residence"
A settler is one who attaches
himself to piece Of public land
by such unequivocal act as shows
his intent to make his home there
and to acquire title under the
settlement laws. A resident is
one who in compliance with the
settlement laws is residing upon
public land. Until such acts
have been performed as show
.nnequivocably that an entryman
intends to make his home upon
the land, he is neither a settler
nor a resident. Citing case Of

Glendive, Dec. 26-Her two
babies alone in the house, crying

lay dead in the next room, was
the shocking condition that con-
fronted Mrs. w. s. Mcintyre, wife

Billings, Mont, Dec. 28- Eight
cars of fatted steers were ship
ped this week from the Billings
sugar factory by Chas. O'Don-
nell and associates to the Pacific
coast. They are the first Of the
1911 beet pulp fattened stock to
be shipped to market. They go
to the coast, which is now taking
nearly so per cent of the stock

'isdiction. A reception committee
from each of the cities visited
met the party and every hospi-
tality possible was extended.
Several Of the eastern gov
ernors advocated a like tour from
the east to the west, and the
Baltimore chamber of commerce
is now endeavoring to make ar
rangements to that end. 1t is
earnestly hoped that the eastern
governors may shortly visit the
west and that we may have op-
portunity to return the many
courtesies extended to us by
them. Such a tour would be a
fitting climax to the one just
completed.
"A permanent conference Of
western governors was organized
during the tour, and the first
regular meeting will be held at
Boise about Aug. lst If next
year. At this meeting only
questions of direct interest to
the west will be considered. l
am confident that much good
will follow these annual confer
ences.
''The special train was the
best that the railroads Of the
west could furnish, and itself
was a cause of wonder to eastern
people. The fact that the tun-
nels Of the east " ere so small
that the cras could not be car
ried through the tubes at New
York City, Pittsburg, Baltimore
and Washington conveyed a very
stl Ing idea of the large scale
on which things are constructed
and used in the west.
Everywhere the newspapers
gave columns to a description of
the exhibits, the cars and the
interviews and speeches of the
governors and others who were
members of the party. Thous-
ands of colums were printed and
these were read by millions of
people. Everywhere the great
est and most intelligent interest
was manifested.
The members Of ihe party
found the trip an exceedingly
strenuous one. and every minute
of time possible was devoted to
the purpose for which the tour
was organized. Fortunately
there was no sickness, indispo-
sition or accident of a serious ma
ture. wish to specially refer
to the work performed by Lewis
Penwell and James Shoemaker,
who were at all times vigilant
and accommodating and did
everything in their power to
make the trip pleasant and sue.
cessful. No small measure of
credit is due them for their part
in making the trip successful and
in as far as possible pleasant"

Helena, dec. Ex-Governor Eu-'
win L. Norris today made the
following statement concerning
the recent invasion of the east
by the western governors, the
manner in which the tour was
financed, and the possible result
of the missionary work done for
the west on the trip.
"The idea originated with and
the tour was organized and con-
Quoted by former Govoner James
N. Brady of Idaho, and his un-
tiring efforts contributed largely
to the success of the tour.
For the financing Of the tour
the state Of California and the
Panama Pacific Exposition COM
pany contributed $1,000, and
seven other states contributed
81, 500 each, making an aggregate
Of SIS, 500. The total expenses
Of the trip were about $13, 900,
so that there will be a small bal
ance on hand. The 81, 500 assess
ed to the state Of Montana was
raised by Lewis Penwell, through
private subscriptions and the
Northwestern Development Lea
que.
"The Great Northern, the
Northern Pacific and the Burling-
ton railroads contributed the
equipment of the special train,'
the greater portion being furn-
ished by the Great Northern.
Aside from furnishing the equip
ment, the railroad betrayed no
portion of the expenses.
''The tour commenced at St.
Paul on Nov. 27 and ended at the
same place on Dec. 16. The fol-
lowing places were visited: Chi
cago, ILL.,, Kalamazoo, Grand
Rapids. and Detroit, Mich; To-
ledo, Cleveland, Columbus, Day
ton and Cincinnati, Ohio; Buffalo,
Batavia, Rochester, Utica, SYRIA
cuse, Newburg, Albany and New
York City, N. Y, Erie, Johns
town, Pittsburg, Chester, Ian
caster, and Harrisburg, Pa. !;
Baltimore. Md; Washington. D.
c.; Wilmington, Del; Indianapo-
lis, Ind, and the twin cities Of
Minnesota.
There were in the train five
exhibit cars filled with the pro-
ducts of the western states rep
resented. At each city visited
these exhibit cars were open for
inspection, and as many people
as could crowd through them
viewed the products of the west
at each stop. More than 90, 900
people saw the exhibits, and only
words Of surprise. praise and
commentator were heard from
those who thus were given their
first intelligent idea Of what the
west produces.
Tn addition to the tangible
The Wibaux pioneer. [volume] (Wibaux, Mont.) 1907-1919, 1911-12-29

evidence of western production,
the western governors conveyed
to the east messages Of good will
and desire for closer CONNER
cial relations with the east. De-
scriptions as forceful as were at
the command Of the speakers
were given Of western c, c,nditions,
production and possibilities. At
tention was called to the fact
that it was the west hat must
in the future furnish the food
supply to feed the larger popula-
tion Of the east, and that de-
velopment Of the west would not
only furnish this food supply,
but would afford profitable mar
kets for eastern manufactured
products.
THE impression prevailing in
many quarters that the west is
crude, undeveloped and still in a
pioneer condition was in 50 far
as possible dispelled. and a great
deal was done by this tour to con-
vey truth and correct ideas con-
cerning the west. The idea of
ihe trip was unique and ambitious
in conception, and far more was
acce mplished than was antici-
pated. The publicity secured by
this method could not possibly
have been secured by any other
means, and the fact that western
officials were meabers of the
party and giving out the infor-
nation seemed to convince every
one of the truth of the facts pre-
sented.
II did not find any antagonism
to the west in the east, but rath-
er a lack of information concern
ing this country, and it seems to
me that the east gladly received
information concerning the great
empire west Of the Mississippi
river. feel it to be the duty of
the west to in every legitimate
way possible let the world know
what the west has to offer, and
thereby in some measure at least
check the immigration Of Amer
ican citizens toward the Canadian
provinces.
Everywhere | have found
people much interested in and
desirous of having information
concerning Montana, and from
the information gained by me
upon the trip am confident that
this state is on the eve of un-
usual development and grow
Many financiers with whom l
talked expressed the opinion that
more prosperous times are near
at hand and that when the finan-
cial situation becomes easier the
west will grow and develop as at
no former period in its history.
In each of the states visited
the governor was with the party
