oRSTRUCTING SETTLENENT.

1
The land laws of Texas should be
amended so as TO encourage instead Of
retarding the country's settlement: or
those who administer them should feel it
incumbent upon them to do all in their
power to simplify the tedious routine to
which actual settlers are subjected in
buying and locating lands. The follow
ing letter Will bear reprinting as convey
ing hint of the obstacles to settlement
that might be remedied, it would seem:
CKILDREss, TEX, March IS, 1890.
To the Gazette.
Twish to place before your readers, and more
especially those seeking to purchase school land
for the purpose Of building up homes for them
selves and thereby developing the resources of the
Panhandle, a correspondence had between my
self and Land Commissioner r. NJ. Hall in
gard to a school section upon which was living
and desired 10 purchase Now, the two letters L
received from Commissioner Hall, to say the
least, are very contradictory. Whether they
are intended to assist or retard the development
of the most fertile portion of the state,
whether in the interest of the settler foreign
cattle syndicate, your readers must judge for
themselves. will give you q verbatim copy of
both, as have the originals before me. / first
wrote the land Office for informal ion in regard to
the section upon which was living (section so,
block 10, ColIingsworth county,, and received
the following reply:
GENERAL LAND OFFICE.
AUSTIN, TEX, December 70, 1889.
A R. Beck, Arlie, Tex:
DEAR SIR have to inform you that section
So block 10, Houston and Great Northern rail-
way company. in Collingsworth county, has not
been sold or leased ''to anyone The land has
not been classified and appraised, and an appli-
cation to purchase will not be received and
awarded until that has been done and the county
clerk is notified to place the same on his list of
lands for sale. As this matter can be
attended to it will receive the attention of this
Office. Respectfully, r. c. SHELLEY,
Chief Clerk.
In reply to my application to purchase, dated
February "a, 1880, Commissioner Hall wrote as
follows:
GENERAL LAND OFFICE, |
AUSTIN, TEX, February q, 1890.
A R. Beck, Childress, Tex.
DEAR SIR-Replying to your favor of the 24th
instant, viii say that section so, block 10, cert.
1880, Houston and Great Northern railway COM
pany, Collingsworth county, was sold under act
of 1888 to J. R. Haynie, and does not appear to
be forfeited. Respectfully,
R. NJ. HALL, Commissioner.
1t will appear from the above that Commits
soner Hail or his chief clerk, R. G. Shelley, has
made mistake, and mistakes like these are ex-
pensiye TO the settler who is DESTROYS of getting
in crops before it is too late for the present year
The Rocking-chair ranch company claim to be
the present owners Of the section above men
toned, and from all I can learn from Commits
sioner Hall they may own two-thirds OF the
whole Panhandle. A. K. BECK.
