The 0sags Land Case

settlers to their homes in what is known
as the Usage reservation in Kansas, is
the most important suit yet adjudicatcd
between the railway corporations and the
people. This tract ofco ntrv is situated
IN SUuthe. stern Kansas n the NeOsho
valley. is about fifty miles long from
north to south. and about thirty miles
wide from east to west In 1863. the
congress of the United States suosilized
two railway companies, the Leavenworth,
Lawrence and Galveston, and the Mis-
souri,, Kansas aud Texas companies. BY
conceding grant Of 10 sections Of un
appropriated lands for every mile Of
road which they might build. These
roads were built, one on the east, the
other on the west side Of the tract of
country above designated In this terri
tory, there is about 050, 900 acres OF the
best agricultural lands in the West On
these lands about $4,000 people had SET
tied subsequent to 1866, ut which time
the country was declared open to settle.
ment by joint resolution OF congress
1t was afterward that the railways men
toned were completed. In 1871 the
railway companies, having completed
their roads through the old Usage reser.
vation, the Indian title to which had
been extinguished, laid claim to ten sec
,ions to the mile On each side Of their
lines.
An appeal was made by the contesting
claimants to the secretary OF the interior
That functionary decided in favor Of the
railway companies, and ordered can
collation. Of the grants 10 the settlers.
Then commenced strife between the Of
Acers OF the railw y companies and the
people who hal settled upon and i'm.
proved the lanis Ejectmont suits were
instituted, and in some cases decided by
the courts adversely to the settlers. But
the people in possession were not dis
posed to yield possession So readily AT
one time the situation Of affairs was
quite critical, and threa, sned to eliminate
in hlo0dshed. Finally case was made
up, and carried BY the contestants into
the United States circuit court. After u
borough aud patieat investigation "f all
the facts bearing upon the case, the Uni
ted States circuit judges, Miller and Dill
Ion, have decided that the grants hereto
fore made to the settlers were valid In
law, and that the railway companies had
no claim upon the lands embraced in the
Usage reservation. Thus affirming the
right of the people of that popnlous SIC.
tion to their homes The result isa clear
victory Of the people over the mon"po-
lists. who attempted t. perpeiratc great

hands on copy OF the original call
which is signed by Powell Clayton. Sena
tor from Arkansas and Chairman of the
Republican Central Committee OF that
State. This document is interesting
chiefly for its confession that the Repub.
lican party at the South is near its final
agones Of dissolution. The Republican
party at the North, SAYS Clayton, must
speedily follow in the dusty way to death
unless the Republican party at the South
is inspired with new life The call is
doubtless one result Of Clayton's recent
conferences with Morton. and tho infer
