MR. HALDKRREE'K POSITION
OX LAND (iRAXT OI KSTIOX
Dexter, Or., May 8, 1S0S.
Ed. The Guard: I have read in
the Oregonian of May 7 what pur
ported to be a letter written by Attorney-General
Bonaparte to Mon
dell, in which he gives the lumber
companies every advantage, and the
actual settler no right as all.
I have been interested In this
matter, for more than a year. I am
now an actual settler on the r. w.
of Section 35, Tp. 20 S., R. 1 W.,
Willamette Meridian. I give the
exact location as a matter of accom
modation to Bonaparte, or anyone
else who may come in search of tres
passers. The first encouragement and ad
vice I had came from United States
Land Commissioner Ballinger. On
receipt of his letter. I became Inter
ested and have since sought all pos
sible information upon the subject.
I made application to the O. & U
R. R. Company, a year ago, to pur
chase one hundred and sixty acres
of their land, agreeing to faithfully
and honestly endeavor to comply
with all the requirements or tne law
touching the Land Grant. My appli
cation being rejected, after due con
sideration, fcnd advice from those
whom I believe are competent to
give it, I decided to settle upon the
land, which I did, and am proceeding
to try the matter out In the courts,
according to Mr. Ballinger's advice.
A short time ago Mr. Townsend
and Attorney-General Bonaparte
went before the House Committee
and Btated that the R. R. Company
could lawfully sell their land to ac
tual Bettlers at any time before the
forfeiture was made. Now, Mr.
Bonaparte says: "Mr. Settler, you
are a tresspasser; lumberman, gq
ahead and saw your wood.
While there seems at this time a
good deal to discourage the actual
settler. I myself shall not quit un
til I at least locate the department
of Justice.
No doubt there has been some in
justice done in the matter of filing
applications, and I believe the man
ner in which the locations and fil
ings were made has had a good deal
to do with Bonaparte's opinion. I
believe if those who applied to pur
chase the land had all gone out and
settled upon It, it would no doubt
Ira ve been satisfactory to the De
partment of Justice. There are
many who, instead of doing their
plain duty, and trying to right a
grent wrong, are today standing
back, waiting for an opportunity to
gratify their true dispositions by
saying, "I told you so," and It is for
the benefit of those that I quote
from the Congressional Globe of Ap
ril 1, 1870, a part of the discussion
upon the act of May i, 1S70.
"Mr. Smith of Oregon. The bill
J will Btate, is one in which the In
terests of the government have been
carefully guarded There has ntver
been a land grant in which those in
terests have been fn carefully guprd
ed as In this hlll,,,,Mr. Lawrence.
does this bill make any provisiou iu
regard to actual settlers?
Mr. Smith of Oregon. It provides
that the land shall be sold only to
actual settlers in quantities not ex
ceeding one hundred and sixty acres
to eacn person and at a price not ex
ceeding $2.50 per acre. It is the
most carefully guarded bill ever pre
sented to this House.
Mr. Sargent.
The gentleman from Indiana (Mr.
Holman) also says that the lands
along the Union Pacific now sell for
ten dollars per acre. The lands that
bring that price must be of very lim
ited quantity, but if they are worth
mat, it is the road that has elven the
value, ror without it they would be
worthless Under this bill the lands
can never realize but $2.50 per acre
to tne company, even if -the road
makes them worth one hundred dol
lars per acre."
I gave a fow friends the numbers
of their locations "free gratis," and
wo did not go into the matter with
any other thought than of doing our
amy to our rellow men in the clean
est, manner possible. We thought In
the beginning that asking fees for
loentlon on the R. R. lan.1 ,-js alto
gether wrong, and would prove an
injury to tho cause.
1 have reasons to believe fiere Is
a law granting me the right to make
settlement and to live upon tht land
Hid I nm Here to remain until I am
made to let. go.
