Washington, Feb. Especial,
The senate today passed with.
out opposition the Borah bill re
ducing to three years the time
required for proving up on a
homestead entry and permitting
the entrymen to take six months
leave of absence from his entry
each year.
That there will be strong OPP
position to the passage of the
measure in the house is believed
certain, as Secretary Fisher ap-
peared before the house public
lands committee against it. Sec.
rotary Fisher and Land Commits
sioner bennett also advised the
house committee to reject the
bill, which provides that notice
shall be given settlers when pro
tests against their claims are
fled by special agents. Such
notice the officials said would en-
able the entryman to get wit
nesses out of the country, or
frame up a defense to overthrow
the evidence gathered by the
government.
Washington, Feb. 5. Especial.
Secretary Fisher promised the
committee that he would in
struct his subordinates that all
contests against entries must be
taken up and disposed of within
a year from the date of fling
The secretary opposed the plan
of appealing land decisions to
the courts, predicting that such
action would swamp the courts
and cause more delay than at
present.
He favored having payments
for water rights under govern
ment reclamation projects made
to the reclamation service officers
instead of to land office officials

Boston Pickings.

The schools and Sunday school
are again reSuming their normal
conditions, but the fuel problem
has not been much relieved. The
chances are that another winter
will not catch so many out of
fuel as it did this winter.
There is a crying need in Baca
county for uniformity of text
books. BY the district method
now in vogue the expense to the
parents of children is the maxi
mum limit, and on account of
having to send off and everywhere
for the books the result is that
probably not half the books that
are needed in the schools are in
the hands of the children. A
move should be made for county
uniformity and a consequent
minimum price contract for a
term of years. AT least one
merchant then in the county
could afford to keep the books
md parents could then go there
md get them when they wanted
them.
The question now is, has the
Colmar cutoff been cut off, or is
it simply an append of the i'm
