CONGRESSMAN KINKAID GETS
RULING ON SUBJECT.
NEED NOT RESIDE ON TRACT
Purchasers Must "Occupy" In the
Sense of Cultivating , Grazing or
Using for Personal Benefit Specu
lators Aimed at
O'Neill , Neb. , Juno 28. Special to
The News : In response to inquiry ,
Congressman Kinknid has just re
ceived a letter from the office of the
general land commissioner at Wash
ington stating that under the regula
tions of the "Isolated tract act , " the
requirement tlmt the applicant state
that he is desirous of purchasing the
land for his own individual use and
occupation , Is for the purpose of pre
venting the acquisition of isolated
lands by speculators and that the
words "actual occupation" do not mean
residence upon the land so purchnsed
but mean that the land shall be actual
ly used nnd occupied by applicant In
the sense that he cultivates , improves ,
grazes or In some other manner uses
the land in good faith for his own per
sonal benefit. Neither the law nor
the regulations , says the land com
missioner's olllcc , requires that the
purchaser of an Isolated tract shall
reside thereupon.
Congressman Klnkald secured the
enactment of the Isolated tract act of
Juno 27 , 190G , enlarging the Isolated
tract of Nebraska from a quarter sec
tion to three quarters of a section.
The congressman bad received numer
ous i Inquiries from constituents re
garding the operation of the law , when
It should go into effect and what would
bo the rules and regulations. As 'nil
of the land affected is In the Sixth
congressional district and as land of
fices in that district had received no
rules , the congressman wrote for in
structions. Land offices have now re
ceived the necessary blanks and regu
lations.
The law was passed In the interest
of the homesteader first and of other
adjacent owners second. Speculators
are excluded because they do not de
sire to occupy or use the Isolated
tracts.
The construction placed upon the
law Is satisfactory to Congressman
Ktnkald , since the homesteader and
adjacent land owners will now bo able
to purchase isolated tracts without ac
tually residing thereon , and fencing
will bo materially aided.
