The Northern Pacific Land Grant.

At the last Session Of the Oregon
legislature, a memorial to Congress was
thes- introduced and passed.
Among other things, it SET forth that
the Northern Pacific Rail Road CON-
pany had, for great many years held
possession of large tract of lands and
thereby prevented it from being occu-
pied by actual settlers. The same hay
ing been granted to that Company by
Congress, ii the said Company would
build the Northern Pacific Rail Road
by certain time.
1t also stated that this Company had
failed to comply with the act Of Con
gress, in building the road. and that at
that time, the Oregon Rail Road and
Navigation Company were then build
ing liue of Rail road, over the same
route, without subsidy, and therefore ii
was no longer necessary, for the North
ern Pacific, to retain the benefits OF the
grant. That Congress should declare
it forfeited and throw the land oper
for actual settlement.
The passsge of the memorial allud
ed to, was one of hlr. Wizards pc
schemes before the last Oregon le.isla
tue. That body was thronged by hi
lobyist, on the outside for its passage
which proved successful.
At that time Mr. Willard had no in
