Decision as to Desert Land.

BOHEMIAN, Aug. 13.-By a decision
received today by the local Office 0 n
firming the local decision in the case
OF Mrs. E. L. Houston, contestant
against B. W. Spaulding, a desert
land entryman, the desert land act,
as 1t has ordinarily been Interpreted
heretofore, is virtually repealed, &C.
cording to the opinion of the register
of the local Office. The contestant al.
legged that the land in question was not
desert land as other land In the neigh
borhood of similar character under
modern methods of farming was yield.
ing profitable crops without irrigation.
The decision recognizes the modern
method Of farming dry land, and holds
that under the circumstances the land
cannot be classified as desert land
and gives the case to the contestant.
It is stated by the attorney for the
entryman that the case will be appeal
ed to the secretary of the interior.
It is generally understood that the
tract of land In question is substanti-
ally similar to much that has hereto
fore been proved upon Of Q desert
land claim and it is believed that there
are hundreds ofcasess pending in the
western states. which are likely to be
affected by the decision.
The river press. [volume] (Fort Benton, Mont.) 1880-current, 1912-08-21

the rush mistakes are very likely to
occur.
