The ENLARGED HOMESTEAD ACT

In an interview just given out, Secretary
Lane calls attention the fact that there proves
to be considerable misunderstanding among
Western homesteaders as to the procedure nee.
cSsary in order that the "cnlarged homestead en-
tries" shall be made
The secretary Of state said that only the most
direct and simple statement by the settler is re-
auired and that it is wholly unnecessary for him
to incur the charges now made by attorneys to
draw up formal petitions when they are in fact
no more effective than the hOmcsteader's own
letter would be.
The first "enlarged homestead act was APP
proved in 1909 and applies to non-irrgable
land in Colorado and several other states. The
work of classifying the land and determining
what areas may be considered 'nOn-irrgable''
has been assigned by Secretary Lane to the Ma
tional Geographical Survey. Owing to the large
areas to be covered this work necessarily moves
along slowly but as soon as the land is classified
as non-irrigable they are available for home
stead entry of not to exceed $50 acres The
principle involved is worth attention in Hawaii,
where revision of the land laws is coming more
and more into discussion.

INVESTIGATION
OF NTER:ISLAND

E. A. Mott-Smith, chairman of the
public utilities commission, presented
to the meeting Of that organization
this afternoon for its consideration a
tentative program of procedure to be
used in it's investigation Of the Inter
Island Steam Navigation Com
pany which i;eginst February .. No
tees of the investigation have been
published in the principal newspapers
in the islands. Mr. Mott-Smith has
asked the Inter-Island to submit plan

tailed statement of the amount of cap
ital and character of plant engaged
in it's utility business, a trial balance
of its utility business at the end Of
its last fiscal year, a profit and loss
account covering such business dur
ing it's last fiscal year, a statement
of the running expenses1for such busi-
ness during such a period as may be
deemed useful by the commission and
a detailed statement of the amount,
nature and source Of it's income from
such business for such a period as
may be deemed useful.
The commission, says the schedule.
will take up, among other things, the
safety, wages and working hours OF
the eonpany's employees, the fares and
rates charged by it and the business
and reasonableness, or unjustness and
unreasonableness thereof, the value of
its physical property engaged in such
business, the issuance by it of stocks
and bonds if any and the amount and
disposition of it's income from it's util-
ity business,
During the investigation the COM
mission will hear and set special days
for hearing formal and informal COM
plants filed against the company.

work with regard to securing facts in

Only in case Of real emergency should an ex.

expense Of even a short session will be many
thousands Of dollars and its result problematier
