ing been the scene OF peculiarly ag-
cravated swindles and frauds, and to
leave the impression that only by the
Herculean efforts of the head officials of
the department, can the State be kept
within any reasonable bounds. A lead
ing New York papers correspondent has
lust contributed column explaining
that discovery of water mark on the
paper on which the Mitchell 4 Tanner
law partnership agreement, opened to
public officials the vast conspiracy in
Oregon. and around this nucleus. the
writer builds most startling story.
After dwelling upon the work of Inter
ior Department officials in the case oc'
ours the following statement:
THE theft OF timber lands began 30
years ago. In the last eight years l22,-
800 acres of the peoples best lands have
passed from government to private con-
troll. Such an amount would make 1861
625 homesteads OF 100 acres each, and
support an actual farm population. to
say nothing of the towns and cities
that would arise. OF nearly 100000.
counting FIVE persons to each family.
Just how much OF this valuable land
was stolen will never be known"
This is a Enthusiastically vague in
ference, by which the Oregon cases are
left in the public mind as appalling. No
effort is made to show how much West
ern land has been taken honestly.
