THE LAW.
Legal Points Concerning Squatting on
the Milwaukee Lake Bed, North
of Wentworth.

The DAILY LEADER last Wednesday
published the news concerning squatters
taking possession of Milwaukee lake bed
north Of Wentworth, the water having
entirely subsidized. The matter coming
TO the attention of Judge John E. Car
land OF Sioux Falls, he expresses an
opinion favorable to the owners of land
adjoining the lake bed, in substance. as
follows: "a
'The Law undoubtedly Is that where
the United States government conveys
land bouaded by meander lines that the
grantee takes to the center OF the lake
Or pond. The supreme court Of thu
United Ut ties holds that this 10 the com.
mon law, and of course the common law
ID IN force in this state. A case went up
TO the general land Office from the Rapid
City district wherein certain parties filed
ON a lake bed and the commissioner OF
the general land Office rejected the fling,
holding that it belonged to the parties
who had filed on the land which adioined
the lake bed. The courts held that they
will not Mitigate the title OF land 30 long
as the government has not parted with
its title, so that il persons owing land
adjoining this lake bed have q patent,
and desire to protect their rights, they
should have a survey made Of the
amount OF land and q description OF the
same which they claim belongs TO their
filing. The side lines OF the portion OF
the lake bed claimed by any settler,
would start from the outside lines OF his
regular fling and converge towards the
center until they come together at the
center OF the lake bed. After this sur
vel 10 made 30 that the property can be
described, action can be commenced
against any person who is squatting on
the same for the purpose OF eiecting him
and at the same time settle the title to
the land" ]
