He was not afraid that the country was not sulllciont for the increased num ber of people, but his anxiety was "how thoy shall bo taught," They will need to take up their 'work as intelligent men, and tch from Washington nient irrigation projects.

W. BIGGS, Burns. Oresromi cz a a good race Tho commissioner of tho gene ral land oflice hits handed down three decisions in contest cases arising in the Hoise land district in two of which the entrymen are allowed to hold their claims upon evidence of good faith, notwithstanding the fact that they have not complied with the strict letter of the law as to resi dence. In the third case an en tryman who first took up his claim as a desert entry, but later discovering thnt sufficient water was not available, relinquished the tract and took it up as a homestead is allowed no credit for improvements placed upon the land as a desert entry and in view of the fact that he had not complied with the law as lo resi dence his claim is held for can cellation. The register and receiver of the Poise office in passing upon these cases held against all three entrymen on the grounds that none of them had established or maintained a residence. In Un case of Wynn W. Pefley vs. Wil lis V. Krieder, involving 80 acres in section 15, township -1 north, range 5 west, it was shown by the testimony that the entryman never resided continuously upon the lands, but from time to time spent Sunday there, stopping over night. In overruling the action of lo cal officials in recommending this claim for cancellation, the commissioner's decision states in part: "Concerning the question of residence there is but little con flict in the testimony. One of the plaintiff's witnesses, Mitchell, who had lived on the adjoining tract since February, 1008, testi fied that the defendant had been on his claim off nnd on since March, but could not state how often. "He came out on Saturday sometimes and stayed over Sun day and until Sunday evening and Sunday afternoons. Some times he came out on Sunday and stayed until Sunday after noon nnd sometimes he would come back Monday morning, and sometimes he came out during tho week. "In this enso contest was brought about 101 months after entry, and when hearing was had tlio entry was about a year old. "Cultivation is ono of the re quirements of tho homestead law but considering the short life of the entry nnd the surrountling circumstnncf a judgment of forfeiture would not bo warrant ed on tho grounds of failure to cultivate alone, as there is yet lime within which to comply with tho law in that respect. Defendant has evidently shown good faith in tho matter of his improvements ho that the only question to ''o determined is whether he has performed such acts as would indicato the estab lishment of his residence and in tern, to mitKo mo land His home. "Tlio residence on the pari of tho defendant lias been of an in termittent character ami is not entirely i tisfactory. Ho ap pears liowovor, to liavo done the host lie could under tho circum stances. His absences appear to have been necessary in order lo earn money to support himself and improvo tho land. "Upon a careful consideration of Iho caso it is not believed that such a showing of default has been made as would justify the cancellation of tho entry. In reaching this conclusion it is not to bo understood that tho enlry can bo perfected by tho charac ter of tho rcsidenco indicated." A peculiar contrast is apparent in tlio othor two cases, James O. Adtuna vs. Cornelius Blakker, involving 100 acres of land in section 21, township 7 north, range 1 west, and Samuel K. Carson vs. Harman M. Friend, involving a quarter section of section 12, township 1 north, range -f west. In tho Adams-Plakker contest the findings of the Hoise officers are reversed and caso dismissed.

Upon the desert claim he had ex pended $G0() for improvements, but littlondditionarexpen.se was added after it became a home blend. A good house had been erected, but not furnished in such a manner as to afford habi tation in the winter, owing to the absence of a stove.

Much good is expected to re stocked with Sockeye salmon as a result of a visit during the past week of United States Fish Com missioner George II. Bowers, of Washington, D. C. He has or dered the shipment of 2,000,000 Sockeye eggs from the Yea Bay, Alaska, hatchery to be delivered to tho Bonneville hntchery, and the young fry will be turned into the Columbia. During tho past few years the Sockeye has been growing scarce in tho Columbia but it is believed thnt this fine variety of commercial fish will be propagated in sufficient quan tities to meet the ravage of the fishermen by restocking the river.
