BIO VICTORY FOR HOMESTEAD
ERS WON IN DEPARTMENT
OF INTERIOR.
Attorney 1. W. Sheahan has receiv
ed word Uiat life client, FInley M.
Newlon, ban won out before the De
part nine t of the Interior, and thus
la closed one of the most sensation
al and hardly fought cases ever
started In the La Grande office.
Newlon was a squatter In the now
famoiiB 4n 41 township thrown open
to 8ettlemtnt on Sept. 15. 190S. He
made a homestead entry, whWe one
Guy M. Byrkltt aald to be a son-In-law
of George M. Palmer, the
lumber king, male a T. & S. entry.
The case occupied nearly a month
at 1a Grande In December, '08, New-
Ion being given the decision. Tho
decision aa affirmed by the gen
eral land office and now again by
Ihe Interior Department, the court
of final authority.
'lie gist or Uie decision is that If
the squatter made bona fide settle
ment and was acting In good faith,
his homestead takoe precedence ov
er a Umber and atone entry no. mat
ter how valuable the timber on the
land may be.
C. H . Finn of Portland and a
Washington, D. C firm of lawyer
were the oppoe'.ng counsel to Mr.
SheeLan.
Two other similar casea recently
decided are Montag and Jelllson vs.
Asa Bunnell, and Vlnacke and Itahler
vs. Harvey R. Bursell. The Bursal!
were the squatter and the othera
T. ft S. entrymen. Conaway &
Corklns, by A. B. Conaway, appeared
for the homesteadero and won a com
plete, victory in each case. Notwlth
standdng the testimony tfiowcd the
land to be more valuable for timber
than for any other purpose, the pref
erence right waa docided to lie with,
tho bona fide setUera.
