HOMESTEAD BILL

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 again giving the Government a
lien on every tract of land to guarantee
the repayment of the cost of Irrlna-

As previously announced, our remain

Pianola Piano aold during this final
closing-out sale.
This sacrifice sale of Pianola Pianos
Is In strict accordance with agreements
and stipulations reached in the- honor
able United State Court.
It is no doubt the most revolutionary
event that has ever happened In the
history of the. music trade. While this
great and complete assortment of
Pianola Pianos Is still here every
Pianola Piano purchaser will reap a
rich harvest.
Ellers Music House throughout Ita
entire history has maintained Its right
to make Its own low price in selling to
Its customers.
But on account of legal protection
which the contract-price system at the
present time enjoys, we cannot reduce

But come and see. Compare the
Pianola Pianos In this sale with any

half of that which representatives of

After authorising settlers to make

No Interest on these Installments Is

theretofore paid thereon."
The bill closes with a paragraph
which decrees that any entry or appli

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

saving made possible during the sale,

the piano Itself without regard to the
Pianola action contained in same. Thus
we have some used Stuyvesant Player

and also In oak cases, for $290

solemnly united to the dead body, with
which it was afterward Interred.
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.
