VOTED AND LIVED
OFF HOMESTEAD

The Commissioner of the General
Land Office on Tuesday affirmed the
decision of the Register and Receiver
in cancelling the entry of Nels M. Jen-
sen east of Idaho Falls, on the contest
of s. Amelia johnson.
This decision is of great Importance
to all homesteaders. Jensen had a house
in Lyman, Idaho, at the time he filed
on the homestead. 1t was admitted that
he cultivated more than the law re-
quired and that he lived on the home.
stead more than seven months in each
year. But it was charged that his real
home was in Lyman. 1t was shown that
he rented the Lyman house but retained
two rooms for himself and family which
he occupied during the winter months,
and that he voted in the Lyman dis.
trict and not in the district in which
the homestead was located. He had a
good stone house in Lyman and one,
room shack on the homestead. The
General Land Office held that the test
is not how long a man is Oh his entry
but whether it is his home to the ex.
clusion of home elsewhere. In this
case, Jensen evidently regarded the
house in Lyman as his home, and not
the homestead, and therefore the entry
must be cancelled.
