A Protest.
Editor REPUBLICAN,:
In your article of the thirty fist Of Octo-
Der, under the caption of "Land Grabbers, F"
find many assertions which are completely
incorrect, and without any foundation
whatever. But, among other things. you
say: Congress has passed laws and given
every opportunity to these delinquent land
grabbers to perfect their titles. We can not
conceive why they have not done SO, unless
it was to evade the payment of taxes"
Now, sir, since YOU claim to be so we'll
posted on the subject, you ought to know
that this supposition is altogether gratui-
tous, and without the least shadow Of truth.
Most of the lands which have beer entered
a. homesteads by the honorable citizens you
speak of, as anxious of becoming actual set
tiers and cultivators Of the soil, are lands
that are in the possession Of actual settlers
and cultivators, who have improved them
to q very considerable extent, and who have
been paying taxes to the government ever
since they have become owners of them.
For my part, am proprietor of one acre
front, below Algiers, which l purchased in
lSE-thirty- years ago-and upon which
l have regularly paid my taxes to the State,
the parish and the government of the United
States (freedman's tax included). Last year
I paid upon that piece of land. to the city.
1923; to the State, $50; total, s2ll-a pretty
round sum, you will admit, for taxes on one
acre of land. And 1 know that my neigh
bors, Bernard Soulie, Pierre Cazelar. DR..
Puisson and others, whose lands have also
been entered as homesteads by the honor
able citizens you speak Of, have also regu-
larry paid all their taxes.
If the parties you speak Of are SO very
anxious to become actual settlers and cul-
tivators Of the soil, why do they not look
for vacant lands, of which there is great
plenty, instead of attempting to Gust bona
fide owners who have been actual settlers
and cultivators for more than thirty years,
whose titles run back more than one hun
dred years, and who pay into the treasury
Of the State and city very enormous
amount of taxes!
Hoping you will take due notice of this
protest, I remain, respectfully,
..r. F.P. DUCONGE.
