Of local people have already mads

East Oregonian.
Practically all OF the land applied

iect, and should they be successful
in forcing the railroad company to
sell for $3.50 per acre they will be
buying it for from $50 to $100 per
acre less than the actual market
value.
The basis of the claim being made
against the Northern Pacific is the
same as that In the now famous
case against the Southern Pacifiiic.

government gave the lands to the
railroad specified that the company
should sell the land to settlers at q
price not higher than $3.50 per
acre. This both the Southern Pa
