HOMESTEAD|NG
TO Be MADE
EASIER
Borah and Hepburn Will
Demand Fairer Laws
For Settlers

WASHINGTON, ID. G., Jan. ~. -
The Interior department and the for.
est service were attacked in general
debate In the Senate today by Senator
Borah of Idaho, who advocated n gen.
eral remodeling and libcralizing OF
the homestead land laws.
Mr.. Borah said settlers should be
allowed TO leave their homesteads
three years after entering and before
proving up, to give them a chance to
earn n living while complying with
the law as to residence. The present
limit is five years.
Mr.. Borah urged title should he
given as soon as the applicant made
proof. He said there was frequently
delay Of from ten to twelve years
in getting title to homesteads on
reclamation lands, often compelling
settlers to abandon their land. Mr..
Borah contcnded settlers in the ma.
tional forest were az the mercy of
the forest rangers.
Land Court.
Senator Hepburn Of Idaho wanted
"A land court established. Senators
Warren, McCumber, Clark (wyoming)
and Dixon said the great trouble was
with the administration of the laws.
Mr.. Dixon said that eighteen months
ago twenty million acres in Montana
were withdrawn on the superstition
that they covered coal, but no effort
had been made TO ascertain the pres
encc Of the mineral.
Mr.. Clark complained of delays in
transmitting letters within the In.
terror department. Senator Smith Of
Michigan spoke feelingly regarding
the activity Of meddlesome employees
of the Interior department.

Interior department could have pre-.

character to do what ought TO be
done. There are thousands appealing
while the department in rs dead as a
stone wall to the sense Of equity and
duty that should prevade it,"
Rests on Congress.
Admitting some Of the charges
against the administration, Mr.. Borah
still contended that much response.
bility rested upon Congress for the
amendment Of the laws. He declared
that $4,000 American citizens had
gone to Canada last year because Of
greater l;berality in the Dominion
laws. He favored taking conservation
"down from the Skies and said
conservation had not reduced the
price of lumber.
Mr.. Borah bitterly complained Of
the activity Of the special agents Of
the General Land office, who he said
''rcsort to every technicslity that a
hungry and devilish policy can suggest
to trap the settler"
'Let us call for the hounds he
added, "bring back our special agents

Board of Inquiry.

San Francisco, May 23,-Boards of Inquiry will hereafter be con- vened to ascertain the cause and fix the responsibility, where such immediate cause is not clearly manifest, for all accidents on the Southern Pacific, according to information made public in the general offices of the Southern Pacific here today. Full publicity as to the findings of such inquiry boards will also be given
 This is a new move on the part of the Southern Pacific and is in line with its policy of full publicity for accidents adopted several years ago. Following an accident that is not of minor consequence the ranking official on the division on which the accident occurs, shall convene the board, which board shall comprise two disinterested persons not connected with the railroad, and the division officers representing the operating, me- chanical and engineering depart ments. The board must visit the scene If the accident and must take the testimony of employees and eye witnesses, persisting in the investigation until the causes are determined. Should a division board of inquiry fail to reach a conclusion a second board compris ing higher officials shall be con- vened and if the findings of the second board be not conclusive the general manager will convene third board.
 The instructions to officers who shall convene inquiry boards states specially that the respon- sibility must be fixed regardless of { individuals or interests affected. The findings must be turned over to the general manager and from the latter's office to the press. Prominent business men from the neighborhood in which an accident may occur usually sit as members of such boards and of several inquiries already held the findings of these boards have all been un- luminous.
