Land Bill is
Introduced in the
Senate.
W ashington , N ov . 11.—Senator Hans-
brough introduced a bill in the Senate,
which by implication, repeals the timber
and stone act, under which land is now
acquired at $2.50 an acre, regardless of
its real value. The measure is intended
to cure defects in existing laws, stop
speculation in public timber lands and
put an end to the frauds which recently
have grown into a National sc.ind d. It
was referred to the committee on public
lands, of which the author is chairman,
The secretary of the Interior is author
ized, tinder the new bill, to makeixami*
nations and estimates relative to quail
tity and value of the timber and stone
on the public lands, and to sell the right
to dispose of the same in such quanti
ties, as may seem adviseable, to the high
est bi biers. This plan is now pursued in
the sale of timber on Indian lands in
Minnesota. The title to the land re
mains in the Government and the Secre
tary of the Interior may fix the limit of
time in which the purchaser of the right
shall remove the timber or stone. The
right to cut the timber and make it a
merchantable quantity is made inalien
able.
“If Senator Hansbrough’s measure be’
comes a law, all the timber land on the
public domain will be withdrawn from
entry, and the Government will enter
upon the policy of disposing of its timber
at its market value. One provision in
the bill prohibits the entry of these
lands under the homestead or old land
laws. It is argued by Senator Hans-
brough that in leaving the fee to the
land in the Government, reforestration
will take place and the sale of timber
will be a source of large revenue.
The second section of the bill amends
the lieu land section so as to provide
when a settler whose entry falls within a
forest reserve, selects another piece of
land in lieu of his original entry, it must
be more valuable for agricultural pur
poses than for timber or stone. Under
the existing laws, many of the entry
men who find themselves within a forest
reserve cut and dispose of the timber on
the land, and later go outside of the re
serve and file a homestead on other tim
ber land.
The third section of the bill amends the
act of March 11, 1901, and requires all
proofs of commuted homestead and
desert land entries to be made before
registers and receivers in local land of
fices. This proposed amendment to ex
isting law is recommendad by the Com
missioner of the General Land Office,
who, in his last report, says: “The priv
ileges gained by the act have been great
ly abused, particularly by United States
Commissioners, who have often been
parties to wholesale frauds in connec
tion with proofs made before them,’’
