SWAMP LANDs.-A few years ago some cunning
scoundre got an act passed by Congress to give all
the swamp lands TO the several States. The most
of the States granted the lands to the counties, for
the benef OF common sch obs aud by further cum
ming maneuveiDg OF the interested recipients was
appointed 10 make the selection. From beginning to
end there never was such stupendous fraud permit
ted by any government upon i'se or rather upon the
mass of the owners OF this property for the benefit of
few sdroit operators In ten years no State can tell
what has become of this great estate any moro than
they can tell what has become of the forty millions of
surplu. revenue Even the counties that do retain
the lends or the proceeds Of the SALE must feel ex
acty liz the RECEIVERS OF stolen goods.
We have lately heard something OF the Missouri
fraud in selecting swamp lands. That State is not
alone. We see II stated that Whiteside county, l-
nois, which is perhaps as much Of an upland county
a. spy in the State has selected 900 acres or one
ter tn of her whole area, swamp lands which sold
at auction for two hundred thousan dolarssome Of
the tract bring ten collars an acre.
We know of other counties that can even beat this,
but which have not realized az much money-in fact
nohiI g-for the whole proceeds have been expended
in some robbipg scheme of the wire workers under
pretense Of draining the lands many Thousands of
scres Of which no more required draining than all the
grand prairie of Illinois.
We know of one county in Indisna that came in for
about ono hur died thousand acres of swamp land
under the robbers act that has not public school A.
its county seat or one in the County that is worthy Of
the name of public school in a civilized country.
Ard We know of m,ny instances where the blackest
perjury has been committed in selecting these lands
ard the basest robbery committed in their disposal
ard waste Of the proceeds.
