Kockwall farmers say the
agent estimates the fraudulent
entries there at 75 per cent. It
would appear from this that
the laws framed for the protec-
tion of the Government from
fraud in land matters are prac-
tically dead letters, and that all
the labors of those members of
Congress who for years devoted
themselves to this class of leg-
islation have gone for nothing.
If this is not the case it must
| be that tiie laws have not been
properly administered, or that
the agents of the government
have been unfaithful in their
trust.
It is tolerably clear iu any
event, that the work of land-
stealing has been precisely as
easy as if the country had been
without a government or laws
of any kind; and it is evident
that, so far as the protection of
actual settlers Is concerned,
there really has been neither
local nor general administra-
tion in the scenes of these bold
private control. The certuin
results of such action would be
a rapid and thorough cleuring

pearance of the timber there
