70 the crop and with favorable weather
from now till harvest, it is safe to say that
the total Weld OF Minnesota and Dakota
combined will reach nearly seventy-i five
million bushels. This estimate is ofcourse
speculative as the crop is subjected to mis-
haps which may greatly reduce the yield.
The Northern Pacific Land Grant.
In reply to a request from the senate, the

twenty mile limits OF the withdrawal for
said road in Minnesota is placed at 2,S37,-
900 acres; in Wisconsin, 7S5,4S2 acres,
land in Dakota, 1861, 200 acres. The
number OF acres in place and OF indemnity
hands selected by the company is as fol-
lows Minnesota, granted limits, 1,334,-
1898 acres; indemnity limits, 694, 1888
acres; total, 2,02S, 1926 acres. In Wis

While no decision has been made as to the
quality o. volume OF the grant. it is, in my
Judgment. what is known as grant IN

sections within twenty or forty miles OF
the road, as the case m. ~ be. with the right

opinion. entitled to indemnity Tor all losses
which it NAV sustain in it's granted limits
The Joint resolution OF May 81, 1870, as
understood by me, restricts the right OF
indemnity to losses which occurred between
the date of the grant and the iocatlon OF
the road, and the selection in satlsiactlon
of such rights to the particular state or
territory in which the loss occurred.
