14 HOMESTEAD BILL TO Senator Smoot "Fathers" Irk some Measure Amending Reclamation Act. PRIVATE OWNERS HURT If r.cl. Delinquent PajrtnonU Mnn Cancellation; More CulUra llon and Improvements I Re quired S-Vear Iw Killed. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. April I. Additional and trk om burdens will be placed upon hom- trad settlers on Oorerntnant Irrigation projects If Con ffM passea a lonir bill recently Introduced by Senator Smoot. nf Utah, at the request of the Interior Department. The bill amende the reclamation act In many particulars, but uaually by lm rosing additional requirements upon the, homesteader. If passed, the bill would prevent the extension of a three year homestead law to entrlea on Gov ernment projecta: would hold entrlea subject to cancellation for delinquency In making; payments; would require mora cultivation and improvement than la now called for. and would arreatly In crease the arbitrary authority of the Interior Department over homestead entrymen. It also would Increase the burden upon private land-owners whose landa lie within the limits of any Govern ment project. rriftvatlaa Mala Reqalalte. Evidently the main purpose of the bill la to carry out Secretary Fisher's idea that cultivation shall be the main requisite of a homestead entryman, for the bill stipulates that every homestead entrymen and every private land-owner purchasing- water from the Government "shall progressively reclaim and culti vate, to the satisfaction of the Secre tsry of the Interior, the Irrairable area of hla farm unit or reclamation hold Ins;, aa determined by or under the au thority f the Secretary. In such time and manner that there shall be so re claimed and cultivated not leas than one-eighth of auch Irritable area dur ing the first year after the date or en try or of approval of water right ap p'lratlon. two-el(rhths during; the sec ond year, three-elghtha during; the third year, four-eighths during; the fourth year and flve-elajhtha during; the fifth year, and thereafter until patent or final water rlsjht certificate shall Issue: but In no case shall the portion of the total Irrigable area so reclaimed and cultivated be leas than five acres In the first year, ten in the aecond. 13 In the third. In the fourth, li In the fifth year and thereafter until patent or water right certificate shall have Issued, etc In view of the fact that in the orchard country many en tries do not exceed ten or SO acres each, this requirement, of course. Is absurd. The bill opens by providing; that all homesteads on Government land In Government projects ahall hereafter be known aa "reclamation entries." and rrlvate land for which water right pur chase Is made or applied for ahall be known aa a "reclamation holding;." The Secretary of tha Interior la empowered to fix tha slsa of entries and the amount of private land for which water ahall be furnished from the Government ca nals: no entryman to acquire more than Its acres, and no private holder to have water for more than ISO acres, and no Individual to have both a reclamation entry and a reclamation holding. One reclamation entry, regardless of the acreage Involved, will exhaust the en try man's homestead rights. Tha bill stipulates that when a pri vate land-owner purchase water It shall be en condition that the United states and Its successor In control of the project shall have a superior lien on the land, to Insure the recovery of the cost of said water right, and no water from a Government aystem shall he sold to a private land-owner "un less he be an actual bona fide resident on such land or occupant thereof resid ing in the neighborhood." Realdeaee Waived for Twe Yeara. Any homestead entryman on a Gov ernment project ahall. within two years from the date of his entry, "build or acquire a habitable house on his farm unit and establish residence thereon and shall actually reside thereon for the period of three yeara beginning at the expiration of the two yeara afore said." In other words, cultivation will be required for at least five successive year, but residence will be waived dur ing the first two yeara. If an entry man cultivates the whole of his farm unit before the fifth year, he will ba tequlred under thia bill to cultivate the entire farm unit for each succeeding; jear until he receives patent or final water right application, if he be a pri vate land-owner. The bill then pro vides: "That every such entryman or pur chaser of a permanent water right for a reclamation holding, within six years after the data of his entry or approval of his application to purchase, or within such further time aa the Secretary of the Interior mar fix for good cause shown, shall make, to the aatlsfaction of the Secretary of the Interior, due proof of compliance with all the re quirements of thia act aa to residence, improvements, reclamation and culti vation, and may receive a certificate that such proof is satisfactory. After such proof Is made, and upon payment of all amounts, with Interest then due on account of his entry or purchase for building, operation and maintenance. Including drainage. If the amounts then and theretofore ao paid on account of the building charge shall not be lesa than one-half thereof, pat nt or final water right certificate ahall issue to such entryman or water right purchaser, with reservation of a lien as hereinafter specified. Kail are Forfeit a All .Moseys. A failure by such entryman or pur chaser, before such patent or certifi cate of water right purchase shall have been earned, to comply with the re quirements of thia act aa to residence. Improvement, reclamation or cultiva tion ahall render the entry and water right subject to cancellation with the forfeiture of all moneya paid thereon nd of atl rights with respect thereto." This last provision Is far mora drastic than anything In the original reclama tion act. and would rive the Secretary rrbltrary authority to cancel antrlea where delinquency waa shown- The paragraph also Indlcatea that no entry would paaa to patent In less than aix years, and specific authority Is given to prolong the Isauance of patent In definitely.

After authorising settlers to make paymenta to officials of the Reclama tion service on the project. Instead of at local land offices, the bill stipulates that "hereafter.

No Interest on these Installments Is now charged.

The bill closes with a paragraph which decrees that any entry or appli cation heretofore filed may be brought under thia act. upon application of the entrymen or land-owner. - WED BY PROXY IN EAST Women Are Married to Tree. Plants nd Flower Pols. Japan Advertiser. In certain provinces of India It Is con sidered unlucky for a woman to be a third wife. When, therefore, a mer chant of Badson. In the United Prov inces, who had previously burled two wives, proposed for the hand of a young girl, he was perauaded by the latter's parents to first espouse a doll as his third wife, so that misfortune should not fall upon their daughter's head. This he accordingly did, and, having Interred hla Inanimate spouse with much pomp, became for the fourth time a husband by marrying the woman of hla choice. On the other hand, auch marriages are. in regtona more remote, where civ ilization aa we know It haa not pene trated, considered serious affairs and as such not to be lightly dissolved. In fidelity has before now been punished with death, and In the mountainous dis tricts around Dehlie wives who have been untrue to their selected husbands, such as oak. fig or other trees, have been burned alive. At Nepaul, too. draatlc punishment haa In more than one instance been meted out to tha faithless bride, whose fate haa been aolltary and subterranean confinement In chains for aeveral weeks. The husband usually selected appears to be the honeysuckle, and such women aa are true to the plant are held In the highest honor. Every Spring when the fragrant honeysuckle first puta forth Its petals, a great feast, accompanied by solemn religious ceremonial. Is held. At this wives of the flower take high place and are treated with the most profound respect, while their constancy la held up as an example to be fol lowed by all the young women of the district. Flower pot marriages not Infrequent ly take place In China. When a young woman loses her fiance by death she sometimes vows to be true to his mem ory, and to ratify her oath goea through a form of marriage with a flower pot. The ceremony over, she takea up her residence with her dead lover's parents, who are by custom obliged to provide for her needs. Some while since a mar riage of thia kind took place at Sut shau. when a Chlneae lady of the upper clasa. on the death of her husband, the aon of the Vice-Chancellor of tha Im perial Academy at Pektn, espoused a red vase. An equally singular and very grew some matrimonial custom also prevails In China in the marriage of tha dead. A year or ao back a missionary was sum moned to read the burial aervlce over a desd man. He might, had lie cared, have also assisted at a wedding, for no sooner had he retired than a bride for the deceased. In the corpse of a young girl, was brought upon the seen and rnr MOVTXG OREOOXTAN. TUESDAY, APRIL 30, 1912. Every Muyveaant Pianola Piano Is to be sold at prices reduced, namely $216 and $186.

Such marriages, arranged that the de parted spirit may not wander about companlonless In the world of shades, are. It Is said, not uncommon In Shane!, where the above atrange rites took place. An equally uncanny nuptial ceremony was celebrated aeven yeara back at Kochi, Japan. A young couple were en gaged and the day appointed for the wedding was at hand, when the girl, for what reason is not stated, commit ted suicide by drowning. The intended husband was Inconsola ble at his loss, and on his fiancee's body being recovered was readily persuaded by the deceased parents to fulfill the vows that he had sworn. Friends and relations were summoned, and In their presence living bridegroom was united to dead wife. Strange was the marital substitute accepted not long back at the marriage of a European government official and a native woman at Samarang. The bridegroom was himself unable to be present at the ceremony, which was performed according to local rites, so he sent hla hat. to which, as is permit ted by native law, the bride was duly united. First Japanese In America. National Magaalne. We must rub our eyea to realise It la only 7$ yeara since the first Japan ese came to America. He was Manjiro Nakahama, a boy of 14, who was picked up by the captain of a New England Ashing smack In 184L . According to the report of that time young Nakahama with four other lads had set out from the shores of Japan to do soma deep-sea fishing. A vio lent storm came up and washed them ashore on an Island far out in the North Pacific For several months they struggle! against starvation and ex posure, but finally were rescued by the America.! captain. Three of the boys were left at Hawaii, but Nakahama stayed on board and became a favor ite of the captain and crew. They brought him to the States and put him In a New England school. Later he returned to his native land, and when Commodore Parry arrived in Japan soma yeara later it waa Manjiro Naka hama, the shipwrecked boy. who acted aa Interpreter between the American envoys and the Japaneae feudal gov ernment officers. The sympathetic and kindly interest of thia sailor lad had much to do with the success of Ad miral Perry'a negotiation. How often these little Jnctdental Influences, so vital at the time, are overlooked In the writing of history.
