This action followed an extended

THAT reminds me of the back sal
arv grab of members of congress IN
l87z,'' declared Mr.. Mason of Arkan-
sas, in opposing the bill to refund to
the registers of the land Offices fees
for issuing notices of cancellation OF
entries, which they were required TO
deposit in the treasury.
The fee system is bad enough,
declared Mr.. Goldfogle of New York,
-5ut this is pernicious legislation ana
a raid on the treasury, We ought TO
stop paying out the peoples money on
old, stale and doubtful claims.
The bill removed the statute OF Inn
itations in relation to such claims,
and after being amended by Mr..
Mann Of illinois, so that hereafter all
such fees viii be turned into the
treasury, the measure was passed.
