Continued from page 1. serves better treatment or greater fact, no class of citizens —that de indulgence at the hands of the United * States government than do these hardy industrious, honest, enterprising pio neers who are forcing the reluctant * soil to gather and give up moisture tc ■ insure, at least every other year, a > crop worth harvesting." 1 Speaking in favor of the bill, Sena tor Clark agreed that our public land ■ laws needed revision, but said the k Warren measure was an immediate * necessity. He said: "One of two things must happen. 1 Either these people must be relieved by the passage of a law of this sort ► or they must lose their efforts for the 1 time spent on their lands. It is true : as has been suggested here, that ou*- 1 lend laws are archaic; it is also true r'pat every possible obstruction Is put ' in the way at this day of every man who wants to settle upon public lands 'f the United States, there to carve out a home. Not only are objection-* put *n hi® way practically, but hardlv an entn is made in local land offices that has "ot the tinge of suspicion cast upon it. No matter how earnest may be the endeavor. It is almost im possible for a man In this day to se cure, with any reasonable degree of certainty or In any reasonable time, the title to the land which he has oc cupied "The conditions ot the present time in these particular land districts are known all over the country. It is known that there have been drouths, it is known that crops have failed - it ir known that unless these settler* pet this temporary relief they must forfeit whatever right may have ♦o this land in many cases. I hope that we may not wait for general laws in order to relieve a present neces sity.” During the discussion it was shown that Canada is much more liberal with : homesteaders than the United States— allowing six months each year and re quiring but three years* residence to perfect title to a homestead. It is the : belief of those familiar with weste; a j conditions that the character of the remaining public lands warrant some j f-uch liberation of our present law*, j tnd an effort will be made to accom plish something of this kind during ■ the regular session. The greatest hindrance to more liberal land laws j during the coming session will be the j presence of a majority of eastern and \ southern democrats, who neither know j nor are particularly concerned about > the western homesteader.
