Several other petitions have been
forwarded, and several more will
follow. Mr.. Stacy takes the ground
that the different party platforms
pledge free homes to bona fide set
tiers; that most of those lands have
been settled upon, based upon those
pledges that heretofore govern
ment lands, acquired by purchase
or otherwise, have been given to
settlers who have lived FIVE years
on them free OF charge; that previ-
Gus 10 settlement the lands were of
no value, and only made valuable
by such settlement; that the money
used for payment of these lands
was the peoples money, and that
after first purchase money was paid
to the Indians for those lands the
subsequent payment required of
settlers OF 1915 per acre would
place Uncle Sam in the attitude of
entering into the real estate bus:-
ness, using the peoples money in
purchases and selling the land back
TO them at profit, thus driving a
hard bargain on the class of people
