NEW HOMESTEAD LAW

The new homestead law just
passed by Congress ought to be of
considerable benefit to Forest City
because of the fact that there are a
number of good homesteads vet to
be had within to 12 miles of the
town.
Some of the more important
provisions of the bill, as outlined
in press dispatches, are to this
effect:
In regard to absence from the
claim the entryman-upon filing
in the local land office notice of
the beginning of such absence
shall be entitled to a continuous
leave of absence from the land
for a period not exceeding FIVE
months in each year establishing
residence, and upon the termina-
tion of such absence the entry
man shall file notice of such ter
mination in the local land Office.
In the matter of cultivation, it
is provided that the entryman
shall, in order to comply with
the requirements Of cultivation
herein provided for, cultivate not
less than onesixteenth of the area
of his entry, beginning with the
second year Of the entry, and not
less than one-eighth beginning
with the third year of the entry,
and until final proof, except that
in the case of entries under sec
tion 6 of the enlarged homestead
law double the area of cultivation
herein provided, shall be required,
but the secretary of the interior
may, upon satisfactory showing
under rules and regulations pre-
scribed by him, reduce the
required area of cultivation.
Provided that the above proyis-
ions as to cultivation shall not
apply to entries under the
act of April %, 1904, known as
the Kinkaid act, or entries under
the act of June II, 1902, the
reclamation act, and that the
provisions of this section relative
to the homestead period shall
apply to all unprotected entries as
we'll as entries hereafter made
upon which residence is required.

MEN To
SEE GOVERNOR
Conference at Sea Girt This
Afternoon Relative TO Ripa-
rian Rights Here.
ALDERMEN ARE NOTIFIED
Acting Mayor Garretson Un-
able to Attend--J. {. Strick-
er Representing City.

The question as to whether the
state shall lease riparian rights at
the easterly end of Buckingham ave-
nue. to the newly formed Perth AM
boy and Tottenville Ferry Company
or hold it in reserve for purchase by
the city of Perth Amboy may be de-
cided by Governor Woodrow Wilson
this afternoon. Some of the highest
officials of the Perth Amboy and
Tottenville Ferry Company, together
with counsel, George S. Silzer, and
Joseph e. Stricken for the city, went
to Sea Girt to confer with the gov
ernor on the subject this afternoon.
1t was stated at noon that Acting
Mayor Garretson, who has been SO
vigilant guarding the city's inter-
ests in this matter, could not attend
the conference owing to business re-
sponsibilities. Efforts to learn If any
of the other city fathers would at
tend proved futile. At noon 1t was
stated that besides counsel for the
city and ferry company, County
Clerk B. M. Cannon and President G..
G. Baldwin of the ferry company,
would probably attend.
The city fathers declare they are
working In a concerted effort to have
the city own riparian rights to the
ends of all It's streets that abut on
the water front. The declaration in
that respect was proved at a meeting
of the Riparian Commission In Jer-
sey City recently, at which the city, s
representatives emphasized the fact
that it wanted to own riparian rights
at the end of it's streets, particularly
Buckingham avenue, Washington,
Commerce and Fayette streets, for
which applications were then in. The
Riparian Commission thereupon
gave no recognition to the applica-
tion of the ferry company for a
twenty-five year lease directly from
the state and decided the city could
purchase the rights desired for $40
lineal foot.
Just prior to that the council had
adopted resolutions waving its
claim on riparian rights at Bucking-
ham avenue in favor of the ferry
company, which in turn was to pay
for the same. Mr.. Silzer made plain
this action before the Riparian Com
mission in Trenton on August 20,
and declared the ferry company
wanted to lease directly from the
state instead Of waiting for the city
to buy and then lease from that mu-
nicipality. He declared the company
desired such procedure to safeguard
itself, contending that there was no
other good way in sight by which the
ferry company could lease the rights.
Mr.. Silzer at the time stated the
harbor board act of 1911 seemed to
provide for the lease of BUILDINGS,
wharves, docks, ETC., only and did
not give the city the right to lease
land.
Mr.. Stricken has written to men,
bers of the Board of Aldermen noti-
fying them of the conference with
Governor Wilson at O'Clock this af-
ternoon and has stated he will look
after the city's interests at the same.

Brook about a week ago, was arrest
ed here by Detective Totten, of Som
erville, while she was in the act Of

ted to the detective that she had left
