for the claimants holding possession of the
lands, would be to cast an imputation upon
their character as business men, not compatl-
bic with the known reputation of land specu-
lators throughout Minnesota.
respectfully submit copy Of protest
signed by Lyman q. Dayton, and fled in the
General Land Office, showing tina: on the 9th
day Of August-a month previous to the sale,
Charles r. Rice cold to said Dayton forty
seven acres of land within the Reserve, for the
sum of 81 ,937 which land the said Rice bought
at public sale or the 18th Of September, foy
1925 per acre, or about 500. a...l fra ..
In the agreement accompanying the protest
Ia copy OF which is also submitted) Mr. Rice
"binds himself to the amount Of the consider.
alton paid to him to use his influence, and do
everything for the protection and securing OIL
the claim TO the said Dayton, as if he alone
was interested, and it is also agreed that the
said Dayton pay or cause TO be paid, pro rata
expense Of obtaining title to the lands, he ia
incur all the risk in the premises, and posses
sion of said land to remain in the said Rice
until title is obtained as aforesaid"
In its relation to the government this cast
stands upon precisely the .ame footing as al
others.
Most of the claims, in whole or in part
changed hands at high prices, ranging from
forty to several hundred dollars per acre, pre-
vious to the sale. ] contend, therefore, tha
the following facts are established

viously ct private sale for about 81 per acre

would have been folly to attempt to contend
against it.
During my stay in Minnesota, conversed
freely with many persons on the tubject, who
attended and were interested in the sale, and
did not hear a single individual deny that there
was such combination, but on the contrary
was Informed by several that they saw two
wagon loads of clubs on the ground, and that
they knew very we'll that force was intended,
should it become necessary 10 prevent COM
petition in bidding. a.js. 80
1t is quite probable, as stated in the letter
of the Register and Receiver, "that the ut.
most harmony prevailed during the SALE" The
means adopted by the purchasers were such
as, to insure the utmost harmony. There was
opt little encouragement for breach Of the
peace where the claimants and their aiders
and abettors were so well furnished with wea-
pons for the prompt punishment of any ofeD-
Ger. Had there been no combination, and no
means OF intimidation used, there would doubt
less have been less harmony. Where the COLI
melting interests involved were so important
and speculation was at its height, it would not
have been singular had there been seyeral
breaches Of the peace, under system Of free
competition. a .a. ''...f
The pretension that the settlement of the
country Is advanced by Unfair management Of
this kind is entirely unwarranted by facts
All reasonable encouragement should be given
to actual settlers who reside upon and cult
vate the lands; but if the laws governing pre-
captions and public sales are to be set aside
and government reserves held open to specu
lators, then the fact should become generally
known under official instructions, so that al
spectators can enjoy an equal chance of Sc
curing claims upon the Indian and other Re
serves yet unoccupied by white settlers. Tht

whsrs to the hardy nionssrs Of the west, il il
