FariS Land Law Opens
Millions of Semi-Arid Acres

The Faris land law, the provisions
of which are similar to the Kinkaid
law that applied in Nebraska, enables
settlers to file upon tracts of $40 acres
each in Wyoming and other parts OF
the country, where the government
land has been designated as semi
arid.
In Wyoming alone there are $4,000
acres OF the semi-arid land. While
filings will not be accepted at this
time at the government land Offices,
settlers may designate the lands they
desire to file upon, notify the nearest
land Office of the designation and the
filings will be entered of record as
soon as word is received from Wash
ington.
Under the Faris law a seven
months residence on the land filed
upon is required each year for period
OF three years. Final proof may be
made at any time after that when al
fdavits are presented, showing the
fact of residence and the further fact
that improvements aggregating $l.25
per acre have been made The i'm
provements may consist OF buildings,
fencing, wells, or cultivation. In pass
ing title, the government conveys to
the homesteader nothing below the
surface, it being specified that it re
tains title to all minerals, Goals and
oils that may subsequently be dis
covered,

STONE DENOUNCES

Senator Says Confidential
Communication Had Fallen
Into Inscriptions Hands.
SAYS WILL NOT SHRINK

Washington. Jan. 2.-Charges of .
leak" OF advance information or
President Wilson's peace note involv-
ing other charges that somebody
made profits on it in the stock mar,
ket, gained further official attention
today when Senator Stone, demo
crat. spoke on the subject in the sen
ate and Thomas W. Lawson OF Bos-
ton conferred with Chairman Henry
OF the house rules committee about
a proposed congressional investiga-
ton.
Senator Stone said that confidential
communications concerning the
honor OF the nation had fallen into
improper hands. but said he had no
information as to whether leak oc-
Cured as recently reported. # so,
he believed it traceable to depart
mental employees.
III il be true that any public Off
cial has or did use any secret or con-
hdential information as alleged"
said Senator Stone, he is an I'M
speakable scoundrel If any man in
legislative life--if any senator--did it.,
which | believe to be absolutely i'm
possible, he ought to be dismissed
u do know Senator Stone con-
tinued, that things have occurred in
the departments which ought not to
be possible. ] know that confidential
communications with foreign govern
ments to the State department have
by some means found their way into
hands OF men not authorized to re-
ceive them. These did not concern
stock market speculation, but did con-
Germ the honor OF the nation. How
this has happened do not know, but
it could have happened only through
the fundamentally OF employees.
fear that this betrayal of public con-
fidence is in some way traceable to
our civil service
Senator Stone then denounced
Thomas w. Lawson for his recent
declaration that members OF congress
would shrink from an investigation
into stock market leaks"
Il despise these sensational fakirs,
who are Away talking about public
bodies and public men," said he,
Il am sorry that the newspapers
should take up the believing OF this
ass"
After comforting with Mr.. Lawson
for two hours Chairman Henry Of
the house rules committee issued this
statement:
"Mr. Lawson charged that there
was a leak from the State depart
ment to Wall street some days ago
and that through such an alleged leak
certain individuals by specializing in
Wall street cleaned up $60,0O0.00O or
more.
II have asked him for the name
Of the individual giving information
constituting the leak and the names
OF the spectators profting by such
alleged leak. He has not furnished
the names in either case. And so
there is at this time nothing yet fur
nishcd me even approaching informa-
ton that would warrant me in calling
together the committee on rules"
Upon leaving Mr.. Henry's office
Mr.. Lawson declared that he had
given enough information to warrant
any intelligent man in proceeding
with an investigation of the entire
stock exchange situation" !.
Representative Campbell Of Kan
sas, ranking republican Of the COM
mittee, notified Chairman Henry that
republican committeeman would in
sist on an investigation.
