A Real Homestead , Alliance Times: Hon. M. P. Kin kaid has written Register Bruce Wil cox, of the Alliance land office, asking his opinion and the general sentimenl here as regards the passage of a bil that would entitle homesteaders to a section of land, or 640 acres, instead ol 160 as allowed by the present law. The register replies favoring such an act and correctly stating that the avail able lands Remaining would not graze more than ten or fifteen head of stock to the quarter sect ion, and being prac tically useless for agricultural pur poses, thus do not enable the settle] to make a living on the land, and that with 640 acres he would be able to dc so. This is a measure that we believe would be generally favored by nearly all residents of this region for various good reasons. Times would be glad to print the views of any one on this subject, and we would suggest that as many as possible of those interest ed address Representative Kinkaid at Washington, that he may have a bet ter idea of the wishes of his consti tuency, whom we feel certain he desires to serve to the best of his knowledge and ability.
