passage another bill Of Mr.. Burke's--s
bill to permit Smith Davis, a settler In
Tripp county, to make . second entry.
Mr.. Davis made first entry back in
the 70s, but did not prove up on the
land. Then, about fifteen years ago, he
homssteaded on 16O acres and has lived
ON the place ever since. But when he
came to prove up he ran into the old
fret entry and he was unable to obtain
patent. The bill Of Mr.. Burke will se.
cure this homesteader the title to bid
land.
Mr.. Burke urged the committee ia
extend the enlarged homestead act ca
as to take in South Dakota, but the
committee thought that II the GAO acre

"homestead grazing" bill, should be
