Mr.. Shaw concurrei in this idea These rrsr,s
were given for the purpose Of aiding in the con.
struction of those roads. Michigan was the Las,
Of the Western States to ak. sni the last 10 "a.
ceive grants To- her railroads She received TIA
lands. and with them she had certain duties "a
perform. He trusted. then. that gentlemen roS
not try 10 block up the WAY OF these road.. uhe,
they should gave them their fostering care
There is no great ingenuity required to answer
the question why the companies have not done
more during the past two years especially wien

cal trouble ever known, had passed over the
land in that time This. however. dccsnot give
reason fo- allowing the roads 10 take the lsnds
without giving security tor thc performance Of
! their worl,.
Mr.. MuSsey thought it tn, duty OF the STATE
to see that the lands wee appropriated judicious
Is. If the State IS amply secured while the

be chanseds Let the r"rd> be bulk. and then
let the lands be- conveyed For his own part, he
