It wan deemed imperially appropriate to procure u gavel of apple wood. If poHnllile. To that end, the great sections of the t'nlted StateM and Canada were railed upon. In the end the great Spltzenburg watt procured from K. 1 1.

Henderson, with John Iceland Hen derson, Inc. :t 1 1 f IMPORTANT RULING FOR HOMESTEADERS An Important ruling ban Just been made by the Acting Secretary of the Interior Department In regard to residence on homestead entries. The text of the ruling, wblch has been sent to land olllces, Is as follows: "The practice of according credit for constructive residence covering the period of six mouths following the allowance of the entry Is, per Imps, due to an erroneous Interpre tation of section 21U7 of the Revised Statutes, by wblcb section it is pro vided that on proof to the satisfac tion of the register and receiver that a person had actually changed his residence or abandoned the lund cov ered by his homestead entry for more than six months at any one time, then, In that event, the land so en tered shall revert to the government. While snld section may protect a homesteader from contest for aban donment for a period of six months following the allowance of his entry, it Is clearly not authority for accord ing the entryman credit for construc tive residence during that period. "After most careful and mature consideration of this matter I feel It my duty to disregard the erroneous practice heretofore obtaining In your office and to direct that you exact of homestead entryman proof of resi dence for the full period of five years, as required by the statute, liefore the same can be approved as as a basis for the Issuance of a patent thereon, liecause of the long practice heretofore prevailing, I believe It right and proper to give ample time for notice of the contem plated change before putting the same Into effect. 1 have, therefore, to advise you that In all Instances where ordinary finnl proof Is submit ted under the homestead laws on or after the first day of Decemler next, the lawns above Interpreted be fol lowed."

Tate will go to the big relig ious convention to be held shortly In Seattle." says the White Salmon En terprise. "It all came about In a very nice way, and without nny special pray ers. Colonel Montgomery, who, with his two nieces from Cleveland, Ohio, has been n guest at the Jewett farm, went to church last Sunday and was surprised to find such strong preaching talent In so small a place ns White Salmon. In his an nouncements Hev. Tate had men tioned the forthcoming convention and that he would enjoy going to It. After the sermon, the Colonel told him to come down to the farm and he would see that he attended the convention. Colonel Montgomery and his nieces were drawn to White Salmon through Dr. Waugh, who was the jamlly physician till he came to White Salmon a year ago. The Colonel was In Louisiana when the war broke out. He was arrested for a I'nlon man, escaped from his captors, (led north and was arrested ns a spy of Jeff Davis.
