Of Ihteres to Homessaders

The act of August %, 1914,
allows the five months absence to
be divided into two periods, but
no more. The homesteader must,
at the beginning of each absence.
file notice thereof at the land
office, but he need not specify the
portion of the five months privil.
eye of which he intends to avail
himself. A notice of his return
to the land must be filed at the
termination of each absence.
If a homesteader has returned
to the land after an absence of
less than five months and fled
notice of his return he may, with.
out any intervening residence,
again absent himself, by giving
new notice, for the remaining
part of the period within the
residence year. Two absences in
different residence. years, reck-
oned from the time when resi-
dence was established, must be
separated by a substantial period
of residence if they togather make
up more than five months.
1t is thought that some home
steaders are neglecting giving
notice of the beginning and term
instion of absences. If such is
the case, such persons will have
trouble with their proofs as the
result of ignoring the plain pro.
visions of the law. Blanks for
giving such notice may be OBJ
tanned free from the land office

Fault in System Cited.

board, which declares that, on the other
hand. 1T is evident that the govern

handling of Indian properties have
proved to be deficient
1T Is or opinion, states the re
port that the haste of Congress and
of the Indian bureau to individua1izc
the land holdings of the Indians, who
have had centuries of life under the
communistic system of land ownership
and the methods applied ill the process.
are responsible for much of the fraud
and graft from which Indians have SUI
fercd in d large majority of the cases
where the restrictions upon alienation
have been removed.
The road out of the difficulty. We be =
lcve. is to permit every Indian to have
tnc greatest possible freedom i'll han-
ding his property, short of alienatinS
it, as the only means of preparing him
ultimately to exercise full control over
it,.

Hampered by Red Tape.

",Thc one genera criticism which
we make is that the men in the IN
dian field service are hampered in their
efforts by the delays caused by the
multiplicity of laws and cumbersome
rules and regulations in the Indian
office in Washington.
THE complaint is also general among
field men that too many circulars are
received from the Washington once
modifying regulations or calling Tor
various reports OF giving instructions
on this, that, and the other thtns- inc
exact numheT of circulars issued from
the Washington office from July :,
1913, to July =. 1914, is IL, or Il ilttlt
more than one circular every third
day. The field employees complain, with
apparent ground. that. while they are
instructed from the office in Washing
ton to spend most of their time in the
field among Indians. compliance with
the numerous circulars makes IT I'M
possible for them to do so.
