as much as the other brothers. 1 might illustrate
it in this way: Suppose man has ten sons, and
has a thousand acres. He can afford to give to
each one of them hundred One of the sons says:
"Give me my hundred acres now; want to make
something out OF it." 1t is very well if he goes of
and stays there and makes no calls but if he re-
mains at the family table, boards and is clothed as
member of the family then it is very unequal and
very unjust That is the very position we now
stand in. The men who go and get their part of
the public lands, and take possession of it, still
come in take their share, and draw with the rest
of us for the residue.
My proposition, therefore, exactly meets the
view Of the Senator from Tennessee, take it. BY
it, make fair division of all the lind; the old
man says to each of his sons. "here, give each of
you one hundred acres; you may take it and use it
you like; if you do not choose to cultivate it,
sci! it to of your neighbors and put the money
in your pocket" That would be the effect of my
proposition. Pass it, and man is living in North
Carolina, and is farmer, says: al do not care to
settle on this new land have paid for much as
| need or want | will buy pillow horse" lie may
sell his warrant, and get pillow horse and if me-
chanic wants to add to his stock in trade, he may
sell his warrant.
Bat really, Mr.. President, I promised to make
short explanation. My proposition is so just, that
the Senators look at it the better they will
like it. If so, and it passes, it relieves us of all the
difficulties Of this question. We divide the public
property fairly among all persons.

opposition to the payment of what is known as the
Florida Claims, involving about two millions of dol

long time, and Gov. Bragg said, if the claims
