Last week we gave our readers a word
of caution III relation to the price Of Coun.
ty Orders It Is very evident that all
feel an interest n the matter. and that
our County Board Of Supervisors have
done their best to raise the price of Or
ders But 50 long as orders are issued
and those who have them will sell FIR fifty
cents on the dollar, NE need not look for
a higher price We say again, let all
who have County Orders to dispose Of.
hold on to them, and refuse to sell for
less than - or 80 cents, and they will
very soon come to that price County
Taxes have to be paid. and if those who
pay them cannot eet County Orders they
will be paid in cash. and the money from
the treasury viii redeem Orders, dollar
for dollar. esee no other way in which
the price Of Orders can be raised than
for the people themselves to do it. The
prevailing opinion that County Orders are
worth but fifty cents on the dollar, all
arises from the fact that people will sell
for that price. and not on account Of an
inability on Tie part of the County to pay
her debts The County pays the fall face
for her Orders and those who buy for SO
cents are the persons who make the profits.
Let the people see to it, and depend upon
it in q short time Iowa County Orders
Will be worth their face.

position of the land when the title shall pass into the States
These exhibits are however, sufficient to show the magni-
tude Of the subject connected with the system which here
proposed presents the great question whether we ere pre-.
pared not only yield thai which has already been expended
for the purchase Of land held by the Government but to pro-
ceed with the accumulation expense till II reaches the sum
thus Indicated in order TO carry out tho principle of graai-
ous distribution It will be observed that this bill does not
propose to release the General Government from the
ment and care of public domain until afer the oganza-
ton of States and the cesson thereof to their authorities
Indeed, apprehend that no person desires that the
Uni ed States should renqush the survey and care of
public domain. Nothing more important than that the
surveys should be made in the most manner and
that the simplicity Of titles easily traced to the Government
granor which emineny characerzes SYSTEM should
be preserved.
Il sometimes is supposed that there is in this Government
somehow or other title to the public lands by virtue Of emf
public domain, or Of its right merely government
No supposon could be than this There is
poion of the public lands, far know belonging
the United States which has been obtained BY purchase
The titles lands obtained from the original States
received certain conditions to be performed q
sderaon by the General Government and which the latter is
now carrying out according to their true spirit.
Since the cesson of these lands territory has been acquired
by treaty from France, from Spain, and from Mexico. all Of
which yield not merely jurisdiction, but convey specifically
the title to the soil itself
The treaty with France Of 1903 cedes all public lots and
squares, lands, and public buildings" which
private property, for fifteen millions Of dollars.
The ceson by Spain Of 1919 conveys, for Eve millions Of
dollars sin full property and sovereignty, all the territories
&c, specifying all public lots and squares vacant lands &C.
not private property.
The cesson by Mexico of ls4s cdes the broad territory
of California and New Mexico in nearly the same ,erm-, in
consideration Of fifteen millions Of dollars.
1t might be well also take another view d this subject,
in reference to the expense of the gautous cesson Of the
public domain. Let by another estimate what would

every settler The average the Government per acre,
before stated is % cents making for each grant Of l60
