Washington.-It is believed certain
that the Borah three.year homestead
bill must be materially amended be.
fore 1t can get out of the House public
lands committee. The secretary Of
the interior and all the bureau heads
OF the General Land Office are op.
posed to many of its provisions, and
with this opposition 1t is practically
certain the measure cannot hope to
pass. Secretary Fisher is preparing
amendments to the bill which will be
presented to the House committee.
The House committee on public
lands discussed the bill and other
Western land matters with officials Of
the Interior Department and General
Land Office. The officials declared the
Borah bill entirely too liberal and in.
definite. The six months leave clause,
Secretary Fisher declared, was so in.
definite that under its provisions a
homesteader might prove up on his
claim after less than nine months 40
tual residence. He wanted definite six
months periods Of absence incorporat-
ed In the measure. The secretary was
convinced that his exaction Of the cul-
tivat!on Of one-eighth of the land dur
ing the first year was too severe, and
told the committee he would consent
10 q reasonable modification of that
feature. He has also agreed that set
tiers under reclamation projects
should have title after five years resi-.
dence. the deferred water right pay.

Senator Guggenheim introduced n

Gunnison.-If the United States
Land Office grants request OF the
Colorado land board, a precedent will
be established In allowing homestead.
ers to file upon land that has been

flee on behalf Of Eastern settlers who
nave taken up lGO and eighty.acre
tracts In the Yellow Jacket irrigation
district In Moffat county and who
have been refused permission to file
on the land by the government land
tfflce at Gunnison. The settlers have
entered on G.347 acres which lies In
a tract OF 100000 segregated by the
State Land Board year ago for the
construction OF big irrigation prot
Get. The land will be watered from
the sheds In Rio Blanco, and is nc.
