Leave of absence for settlers on unsurveyed lands discussed
A July 28 communication from the general land office explains that settlers holding squatters claims may secure a leave of absence without losing rights by using form No 4519 and minor case adjustments. The law would allow five months absence per year after establishing residence, with marked boundaries and filed notices. Supporters say it grants fair treatment and reduces fear of land jumpers. The Helena Independent notes ongoing congressional consideration and quotes government survey inspector J Scott Harrison praising the measure. Local items follow, including visits, a dance planned for soldiers, and travel notes.

THAT CRODIT BILL
Congressional discussion on rural credit shows belief a new farm credit law will pass. The plan caps interest at six percent, aims near five percent for 5 to 36 years, and allows borrowing up to 60 percent of land improvements. Tenant-farmer access remains a noted weakness and future reforms are expected.
