HOMESTEAD BILL'S INTENT IS EVADED Department Disposed to Rule Against Entrymen on Technical Grounds. BORAH MOVES AMENDMENT .Retroactive Feature Is Somewhat Clouded as Result of Efforts to Make Changes Law Now Virtually Ineffective. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, July 17. To secure a favorable Interpretation of the three-year home stead law, as it was recently passed by Congress. It has been necessary for Senator Borah to introduce a supple mentary bill making doubly clear the meaning- of the original bill. This would not be necessary but for the fact that the Interior Department has always been hostile to the three-year homestead proposition, and having failed to prevent the passage of the bill. Is now resorting to a practice that is common tnese days that of so in- terpreting land laws as to prevent mem rrom oecoming operative. inus lar no oiriicuity nas arisen with the main provision of the law inai is, as 10 new entries, though In structions carrying the law Into ef fect are still held back, but the.de partment has shown a disposition to nullify that part of the law which per mits entrymen to avail themselves of the three-year provision. Senator Borah intended. In framing his bill, to enaDie ail nomestead entrymen to ac quire title in three years, provided they complied with the requirements of the law, and he specifically made his MU apply to existing entries not yet perfected, so that thousands of entry men now working for title can secure patent after three years of residence. Iateat of Bill Defeated. When the Borah bill went to confer ence numerous changes were made and in making these changes the retroac tive ieature or the bill became some what clouded and the Interior Depart ment is disposed to take advantage of xnis iaci in a way that will not per mit all homesteaders under the old law to acquire patent after three years' residence, though that was the intent of the author of the bill, and of those who stood with him to secure its pass age. Senator Borah's new bill, which he will press to passage this season, if possible, and probably as an amend ment to one of the big appropriation bills, provides that If an entryman un der the old homestead law fails to elect under which law he will conclude his entry and make proof, such failure on his part will not prejudice his rights to perfect his entry under the law un der which it was Initiated. The In terior Department has been disposed to hold otherwise, though on what rea sonable ground its position is based Senator Borah has been unable to ascertain. lne second provision of the new Borah bill provides that enirymen who made filing prior to the passage of the three-year law will be relieved from the requirement of cultivation imposed oy tne three-year bill as to the second year, but requires that in the third year, and before making final proof. they shall cultivate at least one-eighth tne area or their entry. In other words, an entryman who made his filing prior to June 6, 1912, can acquire a patent after three years residence if. during the third year of residence, or at any time thereafter and before mak lng final proof, he has cultivated one eighth the area of his land. Hardship Wrought on EntiTBicn. This provision is necessary because the -Interior Department has been dis posed to rule that an, entryman who filed under the old law cannot get title under the three-year law, unless he can show that he cultivated one-six teenth the area of his land during the second year of residence, and one eighth the third year. Such a con struction would bar out a great many bona fide entrymen who would be en titled to patent after three years, if the spirit of the new law were followed, and it is Senator Borah's purpose, by legis latlon, if necessary, to compel the In terior Department to place a reason able interpretation upon the law he spent so much time and energy getting through Congress. Senator Borah will not press his bill if the. Interior Department puts out regulations governing entries under the three-year homestead bill that carry out its spirit and intent, but if the department adheres to its evident determination and undertakes to nulli fy the law by enforcing unreasonable and unduly rigid regulations, the Sen ator will insist upon the adoption of his bill before adjournment. Although the three-year homestead law was signed by the President on June 6, departmental instructions to local land offices have not yet been is sued, and until thesa regulations are In the hands of local land officers, the law is practically not in effect. Just what is the occasion of the delay. Sen ator Borah has not been able to ascer tain, but he is inclined to attribute It to the hostility of the department, which takes this means of holding up a law whose enactment it could not prevent.

The House today passed the bill to create at De partment of Labor, the secretary of which shall hav a place in the Cabi net. The measure has long been pressed by organized labor. It now goes to the Senate. House Has Best of Argument to Abolish Office. PATRONAGE IS REDUCED Senators Make Most of Fact That Receiver Has Not Yet Acted In Dual Capacity in Affairs of Land Office. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, July 17. The Senate and House of Representatives are likely to lock horns over that provision in the sundry civil bill which has to do with receivers of local land offices. The House inserted in its bill a provision cutting off the appropriation for re ceivers and stipulating that in future the register shall perform the duties heretofore performed by both register and receiver, hut a chief clerk at $2000 was authorized. The Senate struck out the House provision and reinserted the appropriation for receivers. This is a case where there is no compromise ground and one body or the other will be forced to give way. The House In abolishing the office of receiver was striving for economy, but its position was strengthened by the fact that the Secretary of the Interior and Commissioner of the General Land Office both strongly urged the con solidation of registers and receivers, asserting that the office of receiver is superfluous and burdensome. It was shown by the Department that one officer can handle the work of register and receiver, if he has a competent chief clerk to assist him. Lost Patronage Grinds, One feature of the House provision that was particularly appealing was the provision that the register should con duct the land office, and In his absence the chief clerk should act as register. Under the present law, when either register or receiver Is absent, the office is closed, except for the receiving of papers, and there are many annoying delays in consequence. The prime reason why Senators ob ject to abolishing the office of receiver Is on the lost patronage. In these days of civil service, patronage Is all too scarce to suit the average Sena tor, and naturally any- attempt to abolish a nice line of offices carrying a salary of $3000 each met with Sena torial opposition, particularly as re ceivers are always- appointed on the recommendation of Senators from the states in which the offices are situated. On merit, the House has the better of the argument In regard to this pro- posed economy, but the Senate holds back and denies the contention of the House and of the Department officials that one man can handle the work of both register and receiver. The fact that one official has not been allowed to act for both makes it impossible for the House to demonstrate the correct ness of the assertion, and therefore the Senate has this slight ground upon which to attack the pending House proposition. Outcome Much In Doubt. The Senate, of course, does not admit that its opposition is due solely to the desire for patronage; such an admis sion would destroy its case. But the fact remains that tnat is the only sub stantial reason for the Senate's op position to the House reform, and this fact is well known to House leaders. Therefore the House will stand out against the Senate amendment, but it is not yet known whether the victory. In the end, will go to Senate or House. Originally the House Intended to leg islate receivers out of office on July 1 just past. A compromise may be brought about by allowing receivers to serve to June 30 next, thus allowing them nearly a year to prepare for the dropping of the 'ax. Then, again, the Senate may have strength enough to compel the House to back down. This will not be known until Just before adjournment, whenever that may come. Mrs. A. C. Harold Dead.
