LAND Til 10 decision of the federal supreme couri in the 0. & ('. land tfi'and ease is of reat iniirtaiiee to Oregon, involving land with an assessed value extteeding $21,000, 000, which is mortKiiKud for $:iO,000,000 and has an actual value exceeding $(50,000,000. This land has been withheld for years f'ojn settlement or use. It has been known as the "llai'riiuan preserves," from the remark made by Mr. Ilarriman that tin; railroad was "preserving it for the benefit of future generations." The land was granted the railroad promoters, every other section for a twenty-mile strip on both sides of the track, as' a subsidy for construction and 'to aid by its sale the development of the country. The grant stinul'atcd that no tract larger than HiO acres should be sold one person, and a maximum price of $12.00 per acre was to be charged. These provisions never were observed, the land sold in tiny Quantity to applicants, at all prices, until all sale was stopped some years ago. Payment of taxes on this propertv was dodged for years, through the property's being kept unsurveyed. Actual figures show that less than a ont an acre has been expended in taxation. During tho pant two years tax pay ments have been refused by the company on account of litigation involving tho tjtle. The land grant has worked a tremendous hardship up'on the state, contrary to the effect intended, withholding from settlement and development some 2,1100,000 acres. A map of the regions involved looks like a chcekorhoard, with half the land held idle. Mining, timber and agricultural de velopment have been stifled by the do-nothing policy,' According to the decision rendered, neither the gov ernment nor the railroad won a victory, though the rail road loses its essential contentions. The government's petition to forfeit tho grant is denied. The pleas of mter venors for trusteeships are rejected. The railroad loses fill but a $2.f)0 an acre equity in the grant and is enjoined from disposing of unsold lands until congress has time to legislate for their disposition. The settlers' clause is held an ciiforl'eable "covenant" and not a "condition subse quent." To punish the railroad company for its flagrant vio lations of the conditions stipulated in the grant, the property is made subject to congressional ac tion, the railroad retaining its equity of $2.fi0 per acre for unsold portions. Congress Can make ap pro u-iai ion to pay me $f,7f0,000, and asimiue full title to the lands and do as it pleases, or it can order the sale under any terms and con ditions it deems proper, or it can authorize the railroad company to dispose of them in any way it prescribes. Claim-jumpers and squatters must look to congress for relief. They have no standing in law. Congress is empow ered to deal with them as it pleases either give preference as purchasers or ignore them. Hy the decision the railroad is the loser and the govern ment thu gainer. . less than six million dollar equity is all that is left the railroad out of sixty million dollars of property, Half the laud in a territory sixty miles wide and Jour hundred miles long, that was withheld from develop ment, can now be thrown open by congress to settlement, and the population and resources of the state be materi ally increased. It is up to the Oregon delegation in congress to unite upon a policy whereby this land can be utilr.pd to best de velop the state and the region affected secure material benefits. Here is an opportunity for true constructive ytatcsuianship. .Jackson county is materially interested in the future of the laud grant, as it contains some lll.7J)l acres, much of it fine timber land, and much of it mineral. At its pres ent assessed valuation it is worth $7.",000 a year to the county in taxes. If the timber was cruised it would prob ublv be worth much more.
