ESPIONAGE
LEGISLATIVE MEMORIAL BEARS
FRUIT-LAND OFFICE IN
vESTIGATioN.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
From the Capitol City, the Various
State Institutions n From
Many Different Parts Of
the Sunshine State.

Rapid City-O. w. Lange, assistant
attorney for the interior department,
has arrived from Washington and
started to investigate the work of spe-
cial agents of the land office with ref
enc to a system Of espionage, which
it is alleged has grown up and works
a detriment to homesteaders in prov
ing up on land in western South Da-
kota.
Another matter which will come
under the investigation of attorney
LANCE is the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Carter land office middle. This is a
sectional quarrel which has grown up
in political circles and has become SO
fervent that the land department at
Washington will adjust it OF the re-
port of a statement of facts as pre-
sented by Attorney Lange upon his re-
turn to Washington.
Shortly before releasing the reins
of the executive office of president,
Mr.. Taft consolidated the Chamber
lain and Gregory land offices and re-
moved them to Carter. When Presi-
dent Wilson took up the reins of gov
eminent, he revoked the Taft order
and reapportioned the district, attach
ing a part to the Pierre office and a
part to the Gregory office. This ar
rangement is fully as unsatisfactory
as was Taft's attempt to please the
people and Attorney LANCE will now
attempt to adjust same.
The investigation by Attorney
ionon orourS ont nf q momNria1 sent
congress by the South Dakota legis-
lature, which in part follows:
There has grown up in the prac-
tice of the general land office of the
federal government a system of es-
pionage that works extreme hardship
on many Of u settlers upon home
stead lands, and this espionage per
mits the most serious abuses of the
recommendation power held by the
inspectors of the general land office.
There has come under the notice
of many of our citizens cases in which
some men who had selfish purposes to
serve in getting rid of some home
steader who stood in their way, and
by entering protest to the final proof
Of settlers who were honestly hoping
to make a good effort at establishing
themselves upon new farms, have
brought much hardship and needless
expense upon the settlers thus pro-
tested.
I'VE believe that the long delays in
securing patents to lands that have
been homesteaded have caused, in
some cases, large losses to the state
in tax revenue.
"The uncertainty of obtaining ii.
tie to homestead lands has caused this
land to be deemed a fluctuating Sc
curity, and rates of interest to be
high and losses small, thus hamper.
ing the legitimate growth OF. the
state"
