Appleton Tribune: Senator
told the Tribune yesterday that he
fully believed the settlers on the
indemnity lands would come out
successfully in the new litigation
started by Russell Sage, assignee of
the Hastings and Dakota railway
company, to contest the validity of
the patents issued to the settlers
by the United States land depart
ment during the last six years
There are about %. 900 acres of land
involved IN this litigation. Ia 1888
the land department in the matter
OF Il. q d. land ntrendered a de-
clslon making invalid the selection
of certain lands, of which portion
is involved in this contest. A new
selection was allowed in 1891. but
IL the meantime qualified home
steaders had taken possession of
the lands now in dispute. These
settlers hold that when the depart
ment declared the selection of 1883
invalid, the lands became a part of
the public domain and subject to
homestead entry.
