Entrymen Are To
Have Another Try
New Law Enacted Gives
Them Right Second
Entry

Washington, Sept. ct h
western homesteader and desert
land entryman is to be given
another chance. The law just
enacted, providing for second
homeSead and desert entries to
all who have abandoned their
former entries through no fault
of their own, will become eff
fective as soon as the necessary
rules and regulations can be
issued for its administration.
Congress has frequently pass
ed laws giving a second home
stead right, but heretofore it
has limited its benefits to those
having made and abandoned
such entries previous to a spe-
CITED date. The latest law,
however, not only applies to all
previous entries, but to all to be
made hereafter.
In substance the new law
provides that an entryman 9TH
erwise qualified under h e
desert land or homestead laws,
who has lost or abandoned the
former entry through no fault
of his own, will be entitled to
make entries under such laws
as though the former entry or
entries has not been made.
A provision of the act requires
the entryman to prove ito the
satisfaction of the secretary of
the Interior" that prior entries
were made in good faith, were
lost or abandoned because of
matters beyond his CONTROL"
that he has not committed fraud
or attempted fraud nor "spe-
culated in his right in making
the former entry or entries"

News a Shock to
Cut Bank Friends
Death of Miss O'Neil De-
plored by Many
Friends

News of the death of Miss
Cecilia O'Neil, which was wir-
ed from Kalispell yesterday,
came as most severe blow to
father, brother and sisters, and
a very large number of warm
friends of the young woman
here were greatly grieved to
learn that she failed to with
stand the effects Of the opera
ton performed on Tuesday.
Wednesday morning the rela-
tiveS here received a letter from
DR.. O'Neil, to the effect that
patients condition was very
satisfactory. They were wholly
unprepared for the sad message
that came over the wire yes
terday.
Miss O'Neil was considered
one of the leading nurses in
northern Montana and had a
wide acquaintance in all parts
Of this section. She was a
graduate of Columbus Hospital
at Great Falls and in that city
the leading physicians were
always eager to secure her as
Sistance on all critical cases.
About two weeks ago she was
called to Glacier Park, in COM
pany with a leading Great Falls
doctor, to care for the late head
of the Burlington. At this place
she became i'll and was taken to
the Kalispell hospital, where
operation was performeu 1UI
appendicitis and where the end
came on Thursday.

Of fine, strong character,

ing away in the prime of young
womanhood and at the apex OF

career is deeply deplored by al
who knew her.

A Cascade Farm
Brings Big Figure
War and Prospects for Big
Price Prospects A
Factor

The prospect for high prices
for farm products next year is
even now having an effect on
land values. Farmers in the Cut
Bank community, sit up and
notice! Give your lands the
best possible attention this fall
and SOW every cultivated acre
to grain next spring. A good
crop with good prices will make
for great prosperity, will mean
increased land values and con-
fidence in this section, which
will rebound to the benefit of
all here. The following signifi-
cent item is taken from the
Great Falls Tribune of Wednes-
day.
The sale yesterday of the
Frank Falls ranch four and one :
half miles east of Arlington
on Cory Creek at a cash price
$50 per acre brought very
optimistic sentiment to the real
estate circles of the city. The
land was sold to B. B. Glines of
Oberly, Ohio, and the deal was
brought about by j. M. Gaunt
& Co., of this city.
The Falls ranch consists of
100 acres, all of which can be
plowed. 1t is exceptionally fine
farming land and it's location is
very good. The new owner will
take possession at once and will
personally supervise it's cultiva-
ton. His family consists of
himself, wife and three child
dren, all grown. Mr.. Glines
first came to Great Falls last
Saturday and his purchase yes
terday demonstrated that he
came fully in earnest about
buying land and locating in this
section of Montana.
The present war situation, in
stead of having a depressing
effect on the real estate business
has already put a new life into
it, according to Mr.. Gaunt. He
says that with wheat playing
around the dollar mark Mon.
tana land is attracting attention
and that during the recen-
weeks there has been a notice.
able increase in the number Of
inquiries for good farming land
He anticipates that there will
be considerable activity showr
in the line during the winter
and a very active market in thu
early spring.

spell. The Kalispell chamber
of commerce is willing to join
you in asking for such an ap-
preparation. 1t is bound to come
sooner or later. Without the
road through the park, you can
never advertise a coast to coast
road road.
Professor Brush stated to me
that sometime during the fall,
there would be a big Wonder
land Trail boosters meeting and
| suggested to him that this
meeting be held at Havre. 1t
would be mighty big thing for
your town as it would bring de-
legates from Duluth and inter
vening towns and cities clear
through to the park. 1t could be
made a big thing and l believe
that resolutions adopted at such
a meeting would hasten the
building of the road through the
the n a t o n a | park and get
big appropriation. | would
like to see the Havre chamber
of commerce undertake it and
| believe that you are in a posi-
ton to organize at least Mon
tana and through the assistance
of the Wonderland Trail as
sociation with headquarters at
Grand Forks, this road can be
built. Il will be pleased to do
everything possible in organiz-
ing western Montana and help
ing to boost the proposition"
"On last Monday evening
twelve members of the KaliSpell
chamber of commerce motored
to Columbia Falls and held a
joint meeting on the matter of
passing appropriate resolutions
asking for a federal appropria-
ton for the construction of this
road. | was charged up with
the work Of organizing all the
commercial bodies on the line
of this road from Duluth to the
Pacific coast and as soon as /
return home will open the cam
paign.
Last year whe'1 Secretary
Lane passed through Glacier
national park / met him in the
park and escorted his party in
automobiles from Lake Nc
Donald to KaliSpell and had a
good opportunity to talk the
matter over with him of in,
dorsing an appropriation by
congress for this purpose and
he frankly said that if the
people of northern Montana
would demand it by petition
and | would organize the COM
mercial bodies in it's favor, that
he would gladly push the propo-
Sition. That is just what we
are going to do. 1t will mean a
| big thing to Havre to have
hundreds of tourist machines
passing through your beautiful
city each season. Then youl
beautiful white ways, the finest
electrial system in the north
west, and your parked streets
will get the publicity they de.
serve.
There is going to be a federal

through will be fortunate in

Deer a Nuisance

Billy Ellsworth, who has a
timber claim near Essex, spent
Tuesday in Cut Bank. Billy is
a veteran cow puncher, having
ridden this whole section for
the Circle" and other outfits in
the olden days. The last time
he was here this town was only
a wide place in the wagon road
and it's present metropolitan ap-
pearance almost took him off
his feet. He informed the
Pioneer Press that the deer
were eating up a fine patch OF
clover in his back yard and he
hoped some of the big game
stalkers here would come up
when the season opened and
help him shoe them away from
his premises.
