THE RAILROAD LANDS.

The following, says the Sparta Times,
is private letter to w. L. Richardson
Esq, which he kindly permits us.to
published for the benefit Of those inter
ested in therailroad lands. This letter
explains itself fully and can be relied
upon in every particular
House OF REPRESENTATIVES, Us
WASHINGToN, Fcb'y Il, 1888.
Dear Sir Il am in receipt of yours
of the Ith inst. You asked to be adj
vised in relation to the North Louisi-
ana railroad lands, and put the Ques-
tion :-"Are actual occupants likely
to be protected or to have the prefer
ence.' The land grant originally
made to the Eicksburg, Shreveport 4
Texas railroad, is as yet unsettled, but
the outlook is that the railroad will
eventually recover the lands. have
always been in favor of the forfeiture
of all land grants where the conditions
of the grant have not been complied
with. Congress, however, will likely
decline to forfeit those grants where
the roads have actually been construct
ed, even through the construction took
place after the time fixed in the act
making the grant.
Should the railroad finally secure the
lands, l have no doubt that under the
rulings of the Secretary of the Interior
and the action of the Representatives
from Louisiana the rights of settlers
will be protected.
Yours very truly,
n. c. BLANtII\HD.
