have separate schools in some pro-

There will never be internal peace in

serious trouble. In fact, I believe

In our own country, they will soon
make a move to secure public money

her country of her children, but she

name of the Pope.
l wish to call your attention to the
first issue of Harper's Weekly of
March, 1911, when the Pope issued
a decree through the Bishop of Gin
cinnati, ordering all Catholic parents
to take their children out of the pub

church schools. This decree was
read in every church from Detroit
down through Indiana and Ohio, and

ENTRIES NOT REQUIRING
RESIDENCE.

(9) In all entries made under
section 6 of the enlarged home
stead acts (35 Stat, 639, and &c
Stat, 531), under which resi-
dence is not required, the entry
man must cultivate at least one
eighth of the land in the second
year after date of the entry and
one-fourth of it during each year
thereafter until he makes proof,
and the existing period of cult
walton required under said acts
is not reduced by the act of
June 6, 1912.

Nebraska under the act of April
%, 1904 (33 Stat, $40, common.

such instances the existing re-

by the acts named continue in

had previously been required.
CHARACTER OF CULTIvA-
TON.

(5) In reducing the period
of residence required in perfect
ing title to a tract of land enter
ed under the homestead law from
five to three years congress has
required that it be shown that an
actual cultivation has been accom-
plished of at least certain speci-
fled portions of the land entered.
This amount has been fixed at
one-sixteenth, beginning with the
second year of the entry, and I'M
nutil proof is offered. In view of
the liberal reduction in the period
of residence making it possible to
secure title in three years, which
would require showing of but
two years cultivation Of one-six
toenth Of the area entered, and
an additional one-siXteenth for
but for one year, a mere breaking
of the soil will not meet the terms
of the statute, but such breaking
or stirring Of the soil must also
be accompanied by planting or
the sowing of seed and tillage
for a crop other than native grass
eS.
(6) 1t should be noted that
under the new law the period
within which the cultivation
should be made is reckoned from
the date of the entry.

REDUCTION OF CULTIVA-
TON.

CD The secretary Of the in
terror is authorized, upon a sat
isfactory showing therefor, to re
duce the required area Of cult
walton. In the administration of
this provision it is not believed
that the physical or financial dis
abilities or misfortunes of the en-
tryman should be the grounds of
reduction, but the sole question
should be as to whether, under
the peculiar conditions governing
the tract entered, the exaction of
cultivation of this particular tract
by any entryman to the amount
required is reasonable. The act
ual special physical and climatic
conditions of the land entered
in each case must therefore de-
termine whether the required
amount of cultivation should be
re duced. 1t is desirable that the
entryman should, wherever prac-
ticable, know in advance what, if
any, reduction can properly be
made; and therefore, as general
regulation governing applications
for reduction in area of cultiva
ton, it is directed that all en-
trymen who desire a reduction
shall file applications therefore
during the first year of the entry
and upon forms to be prepared
and furnished by the commission,
er of the general land office and
distributed through the land of.
fices. Where satisfactory show
ing is filed in support of an APP
plcation for reduction, you will
submit the same with your rec
ommendation in the premises
otherwise the application will be
by you rejected subject to the
usual right of appeal. The final
granting of any reduction in area
of cultivation rests with the Sec
rotary of the interior, who may
in appropriate eases defer action
until final proof.

CULTIVATION.

(3) Prior to the passage of
this act no specific amount of
cultivation had been required re-
speeding a homestead entry made
under the general law; that is,
an entry for 100 acres. With re-
spect to every such entry section
1921 of the Revised Statutes had
required proof of cultivating the
same for the term of five years
Immediately succeeding the time
of filing affidavit. The words
the same could refer only to
the entry, and literally construed
would require the cultivation of
the entire tract entered for the
term of five years. But a more
liberal Interpretation has proper
ly obtained in the land depart
ment, and proof has been accept
ed upon a showing that the tract
has been used in a husband-like
manner, even though smaller
part of the entire entry had been
actually cultivated than was in
eact susceptible of cultivation.
Furthermore, the long period of

FISHERS CONSTRUCTION OF
THREE YEAR HOMESTEAD LAW
Secretary of the Interior has Placed His Up
this Important Law, Affecting the
Entire Northwest.

The following circular letter
containing Secretary Fishers con
struction of Senator Borah IS three
year homestead law has been re-
ceived at the Lewiston and other
land offices:
Questions having arisen, through
correspondence and otherwise, as
to the construction to be given
the several provisions Of the new
homestead law Of June 6, 1912,
public, No. 1872, haye thought
it advisable at this time to give
the following general outline of
my understanding of this act as
affecting entries made prior to
its passage, as well as those made
thereafter; also TO prescribe an
order Of procedure to be respect
ed IN matter OF applications for
reduction of the required area of
cultivation and to promulgate a
rule prescribing the amount of
cultivation to be required respect
ing entries made prior to, but
which are to be adjudicated I'M
der, the new law:
RESIDENCE.
(1) BY the act Of June 6, 1912
Public, No. 1872, the period of
residence necessary to be shown
in order to entitle person to
patent under the homestead laws
as reduced from five to three
years, and the period within which
a homestead entry may be COM
pleted is reduced from seven to
five years. The three-year per-
iod of residence, however, is fix
ed not from the date of the en-
try but from the time of estab-
fishing actual permanent residence
upon the land" 1t follows, as
consequence, that credit can not
be given for constructive resi-
dence for the period that may
elapse between the date of the
entry and that of establishing
actual permanent residence upon
the land.
(2) Honorably discharged sol
diers and sailors of the War of
the Rebellion and also Of the
Spanish War and the SUPPRESSION
of the insurrection in the Philip
pines, entitled to claim credit un-
der their homestead entries for
the period of their military SER
vice, may do SO after they have
resided upon, improved, and cul
tivated the land for a period of
at least one year. after they
shall have commenced their inn
provements. This is the require
ment of section 1905 of the Re-
vised Statutes, which is in no.
wise affected by the act of June
6, 1912. Respecting the cultiva-
ton to be required under said
section it has been heretofore adj
ministered as requiring such
showing as ordinarily applies in
other cases preliminary to final
proof, and as the new law exacts
showing of cultivation of at least
one-eighth of the area before fl
nal proof a showing should be ex-
acted of like amount for at
Least one year before, final proof.
