"IT is TO LAUGH"

Senator Joe I. Robinson recently introduced IN the
bill donate parties who purchased 10000
acres Of sunk" land in the ST. Francis levee district
equal number Of of government land in Arkan-
sas in view of the fact that by decision the courts it
has been decreed that the original tracts CT land pur
by individuals the inside of the levee
ring were government and state property. This
moves the versatile lady editor Osceoa Times to
comment as follows
"Of all the asinine propositions have heard of
lately that coming from Senator Joe T. Robinson,
suggesting secretary the interior be empow
cred to exchange approximately 10000 of land in
the sunk land district purchased from the ST Francis
evee board for other unapproprated lands in Arkan-
sas, is the worst yet.
"Pity the poor individuals and corporations who
bought from the board The average price
per acre they paid actually ninetysix cents. Shall
the United States government stand by and them
robbed this sum? Nay verify! At least, so
bill providing exchange The title to the sunk
lands was always doubtful people knew it when
they bought and they took the chance. Not much of
chance either they took just small tree from
every acre they were reimbursed and
for their expenditure.
