was to pass tho title to land from

county In which situateo. . This pol
icy wus not only uninterrupted from
the cession of tho wasto nnd unoc

wus continuously fucllllutcrt by a re
duction In tho sale price of IuiuIh
from lime to tlnio and by the ultl
inuto pusHugo of tho homestead laws,
pre-emption und dnnutlyn claims.
During thin period federal uld was
extended to tho public land states

authorized the president or the t'nlt

conservation of timber und thu
