LAND DRAWING AT ALLIANCE

drawing for farms under the government
land laws. which Is scheduled to occur
here March "a, will not in any respect
resemble those that have slgnalized the
opening OF various reservations in this
and adjoining states in recent years. The
land opened to entry at this time Is
within the North Platte irrigation dis
trict Of the national reclamation service
There will be no registrations. as in the
other cases. Each applicant will file on
the tract wanted under the homestead
laws. This can be done a any time be-
ginning March ~. and at either Alliance.
Bridgeport or Bayard. March "a drawing
will be made for such tracts as have
more than one claimant.
The amount Of land to be opened to
entry has been given as l4.OO0 acres. This
is misleading, as actually only 1900 acres
are involved. other government land in
this vicinity was never withdrawn from
entry. but as it is non-irrigabie and.
therefore of little value. It has not been
settled upon.
The land is divided into what are desig-
mated farm units" containing from iorty
to 100 acres each. These units. which are
forty-three in number contain from
thirty to 100 acres OF irrigable land each.
They are not in one body. but are scat
tered along the ne wgovernment irriga-
ton ditch, known as the high line
lateral" This parallels two Older bitches
which serve many farms in that locality.
All these canals are supplied with water
from the great Pathfinder reservoir.
The land in these units can be Obtained
under the general homestead laws, except
that a charge of zoo an acre is made for
water rights for the irrigable land in
each tract. This charge is to be paid
within twenty years, without interest. A
payment of $2.75 an acre must be made
at once. Five years hence the second
installment is due, payments being annual
thereafter. Until all is paid no patent Ia
the land Is issued and as the government
land is not taxable the homsteader is thus
exempted from taxes on his land for
twenty years
The land is all in Morrill, county Ne
braska, in the North Platte valley. from
eight to twelve miles from Bayard. Farm
ing by the aid of irrigation has been
carried on for several years In this and
adjoining counties, and improved farms
are valued at from SIS to $500 an acre

BRYAN BIRTHDAY
AFFAIR DIFFERENT
Famous Function Of Lincoln Of
Years Gone Not Quite the
Same.
THERE WILL BE NO BANQUET
CFrom a staff Correspondent

(From a Staff Correspondent
LINCOLN. March 12.-(Special)-Ccle-
bration of the birthday of William Jen-
nings Bryan this year will be changed in
more ways than one. First, there will be
no banquet. Heretofore the faithful fol
lowers of Mr. Bryan have been privileged
to gather about the banquet table for the
small price OF 81 and partake of refresh
ments and then sit back and listen to
an address by the man who thrice tried
TO break into the White House in Wash
ington and thrice was repulsed by the
people.
This year the people who will listen to
Mr.. Bryan tell how he Is for the president
and against him all at the same time will
have to fill up before they go to the
Auditorium II they desire to have fIll
stomachs before the speech begins. The
Bryan birthday banquets have been
steadily changing for some years. From
coffee TO soda water and then from soda
water to grape juice, and from grape
Juice to nothing.
Another thing which is responsible for
the change in the methods of the past is
the fact that much jealousy has been
engendered by the turning down of the
former Bryan club. which has always
had charge of the banquets and giving
the preference to other democratic or
ganizations in the handling of the annual
affair. This threatened to raise Hobbs
for while. but the beating hearts have
been stilled by the announcement that
there would be no banquet and that a
mass meeting would be in order instead.
Thompson to Preside.
In order that there might be no local
jealousies aroused by picking a local man
from the several factions to preside at
the meeting. It has been arranged that
State Chairman w. II. Thompson, who
recently issued a call for the state COM
mittee to hasten to Hastings to settle
sinful matters in the party, will preside
and Introduce" Mr.. Bryan, who will
arrive in Lincoln from his winter home
in Florida on the Goth and will be escorted
to the city Auditorium. The Goth Il not
, Mr.. Bryan's birthday. He was born on
the 10Th. but as that day falls on Sunday
this year the celebration will be delayed
one day But that makes little difference
The sun will rise on the 10Th and set or
the 18th just as usual.
1t is expected that a large crowd will
be present and arrangements will be made
for an overflow meeting at some other
point. The speech of Mr.. Bryan is an
nounced to be the opening gun of the
campaign, but on account of Mr.. Bryan's
peace plans the gun will not be loaded
However, there is expected to be other
political guns in the crowd and a few
of the hatchets and knives which have
been In evidence so much lately. so that
the meeting will still have all the requl
sites of an old-fashioned democratic
gathering.
