filing pre-emption claim on the towE site
of Litchfeld. The business portion of the
village, elevators, depot, mills, &C., are sit

desire to gobble. Being denied entry at
the local Office, the conspirators have ap-
pealed the case to the General Land Office
1t is claimed that in Nov. 1857, at the time
Congress granted the land in question to
the State for railroad purposes, and before
the State granted it to-the st. Paul & Pa

sons held it under pre-emption claims,
built on and improved the land, and con-
sequently it could not fall within the grant,

verted to the government and has since
lain vacant. On the other hand, several
old settlers assert that they have no remcm-
brance of seeing any shanty or improve.

The town jumping business is frisky in
Meeker county. The example set by At
kinson, at Litchfield, has been followed by
another fool at Grove City, who has filed
on the townsite of the latter village. By
the time some of these parties have had a
wrestle with the general land Office, bout
with the railroad company, and tussle
with the property owners of these villages,
they will have concluded that it is not all
gold that glitters.
