MANY ARE LOOKING FOR LAND
-
O'Neil Land Office Has Many Appli
cants for Big Homesteads
Q'NEILL-InquhT at the local land
once brings outt the fact that from
twenty to thirty strangers : are visiting
this Plato dally In search of home-
stenda. Many persons are filing on
,60 ( acres , under the Impression that
when the Klnlmld bill takes effect on
June 28 , that they can then take
three more quarters and some under
the Impression that such a filing now
will give the applicants a preference
right to adjoining land It Is certain
that such n filing made now will not
give any preference right to udjoln :
ing land , but it Is believed by some
; well inform persons here that such
an applicant may on June 28 make
application to amend his original en ,
try and that If such an application i. i
made before another filing Is made 011
the land desired In the amended ap
llIcatlon , and there would he a possi
bllIty of the entry as amended being
allowed to stand Judge Klnlmld Is
taking un active Interest In looking
after the rights of the settlers In his
district and hopes to have such a construction .
structlon put upon the law. The
judge received word from Washington
that the filing fee on G40 acres will he
$14 , the same amount as heretofore
charged for lGO acres. There Is yet
nn open question regarding the rights
ot those , who have homesteads and
have not made proof , where there Is
no vacant land adjoining , being able
to take three quarters not adjoining ,
but tho. judge Is making an effort to
get a liberal construction which will
permit such filings Such a provision
was in the judge's Ol'lglnnl bill In plain
words and it is believed that the bill
as passed will be construed to permit
taking land In this manner. The last
congress also passed n bill allowing
persons who have taken homesteads
and have abandoned or relinquished
their former entries to take another
homestead.
