If the Government wishes to discuss
this question from a moral and equitable
standpoint we should be glad TO settle on
that basis, but as long as it insists upon
its strict legal rights I certainly should
stand upon the strict legal rights of the
company. believing. as l do, that this
Government has made much more money
out of the road than il advanced in Gov
ernment bonds, and that the lands
which the Central Pacific received
were not of great value, as all,
or nearly all. of the good lands of
California through which the road runs
were covered bv Spanish grants and the
even sections that the Government re-
tainsd. in the high, dry parts of the conti-

the railroad built through them than the
odd and even sections together were
worth without, the road. / believe il the
people OF this country understood all the
