The WAY THE PEOPLE ARE GouGEp. -
We learn from a source entitled TO credit.
that the Registers and Receivers of the
Land Offices in Minnesota Territory, have
been for some time past sxac,ing FROM pre-
smption claimants the sum OF six dollars
and half for the registration of their
claims, when the law allows bat fifty cents
The administration has been appealed 10
tor redress, but no attention has been paid
to the letters which have been sent To the
Department concerning the swindle. This
is an outrage. I, is simply robbing the
poor man OF six dollars, to help fatten the
pets OF this Democratic Administration of
ours. Will not some of our Delegation to
Congress take the matter in hand, and see
whether they cannot by personal application
to the Land Department, effect what letters
from private citizens have failed to do. -
