MONDAY MORNING JANUARY 22
SPEECH Or HON. JOHN L. DAWSON
HOMESTEAD BILL
'charted in the House of Representatives, on
l'uaday, January 9, 11165.
The House having under consideration the
pending amendment to the graduation bill, grant
ing one hundred and sixty.acres of laud to actual
set tlers—
Mr. Dawson addressed the House as follows
Speaker: Twice before the present occasion
it has been my fortune, in a somewhat prominent
sense, to be the advocate before you Of the great
subject 14)i - which 1 have again to ask your atten
tion. The thanks of the country are eminently
dna this honorable body fur the reception
hi bestowed upon this measure, and the
warm support which has here been extended to
it. lam well aware that the signal favor which
the homestead has met at your hands is in 110
degree owing to any merit in the advocacytof the
bill, but solely to its own intrinsic excelleace.
It is yet appropriate to remark upon the ability
and eloquence which the measure has heretofore
elicited in its support from members of As
House, by which Its advantages have been iIIL
[rated to the mind of the country; and to hope
that the same ardor and unanimity of sentiment
which characterized your former action in regard
to this subject, will be now once more manifested
in its favor.
It will be recollected, Mr. Speaker, that, at the
last session of Congress,
the bill commonly
known us the Homestead Bill, was sent to the
Senate, sanctioned by the overwhelming decision
of this House, and that the Senate, avoiding a
direct vote on its provisions, adopted, in lieu of
it, the substitute of Mr. Hunter. To that substi
tute there arc many and grave objections, and it
is now my purpose to Seek 'a re-establishment,
with a few alterations of the original bill. An
examination of the Senate's substitute, shows it
to bee measure for the benefit 01 States, railroads,
and speculators. Its adoption would be disas
trous to the purity of legislation in the land
States. Who dues not know what a scramble
would ensue in those States, amongst incorporated
companies, to get possession of the lands of which
that which had been carried on in Congress would
be but a magnified reflection 1 Who does not
see the innumerable charters which, under the
influence oflog-rolling in the Legislatures, would
be brought forth to absorb for railroad purposes
all the lands iu these States, to the utter exclusion
of the settler; whichwould cause immense quan
tities of bonds to be spawned over the country,
make the competition for money unparalleled,
and increase the rates of interest to an unprece
dented extent f The starting of so many imma
ture and impracticable schemes, by creating a
fictitious demand tar labor and the necessaries of
would be most pernicious in its iutlucnc. .
Little tif..little the gigantic bubble would co:.
tines to swell and glisten until it should burst,
bankruptcy. in its most stupendous form, 'tie
sequel. 'l iii, is no picture of fancy, but ono
winch the American puiilic are in fact 0nt0,:;,-'
'lately too familiar.
The provisiou of the substitute which prop,
to ingralt the homestead la incipie—via: the me..t•
section—is a mockery. It apparently aileA s
every head of a family, or male person
age of twenty-pne years, to enter a quarter sec
tion of unappropriated public lands upon the
condition 01 payment according to a graduated
scale of twenty-five cents per acre. But whether
the settler shall be able to take any advantage
at all of this provision depends upon the adop
tion, or otherwise, by the States, of this pro
vision oldie Senate's substitute; since the States
have the privilege, tinder another section, of
,acapiiring the ansolate right to the public lands
within their limits, and of disposing of them,
and at such higher prices as their wisdom shall
direct— thus superseding the claim of the settler
i.mtirely. It is. at all events, manifest, that this
grAdmition texture is one for the benefit of cap
da.ists. Its effect will be to pass iutu the bands
id such men amnions net saes, which will re
inailin wilderness condition, it may be, tsr
cent!: les—thus defeating the settlement of the
conntry, and tending to build up a landed aris
t,u.rac. It i.e in direct ant.igunisui to the poi
oi Mt. Jetlermin, of .1,41 - vying the rights
of la - iimigeniture and entail, and the removal nil
all iinjust restrictions which tend to tie up pro
perty b. cued the reach of the cultivator. It will
he an approiiination, so tar as the ildr,rent ge-
Ilks of tine two pqernments will allow, of ito•
policy or the British government, winch has at
length concentrated in the hands of sonic thirty
thousand individuals all the lauded property of
the kingdom.
The reason for the pulley of graduating and
reducing tine price of the public lands was in
order that, by promoting large sales, the govern
lucid might it better enabit d to discharge the
public debt: but with tine extinguishment of ail
the old debt, an inconsiderable existing debt and
an overflowing treasury, this reason ceased.
There being now 110 need of revenue from tine
lands, titers should he a reversal of this policy,
and the lands so disposed of as best to promote
settlement, and thus subserve the general inter
ests of the country. The revenue front the cus
toms is already Mere than sutlicient to support
the government; and perhaps the greatest evils
of our present political condition am those re
sulting frow the struggles to get • possession of
the surplus of the treasury. The true policy
of the country is a pour treasury and a rich peo
ple.
I feel, ,tr. Speaker, in once more approaching
this question, that we, have already exhausted
upon it the resources of argument. I propose,
at this time, only a few remark's, such as WOW
warranted by a review of the whole question, by
the light of the recent searching discussion which
it has undergone in the co-ordinate branch of the
national legislature. So far from sinking in any
degree tinder the weight of that discussion. I
trust it is :low apparent that at no time has this
measure occupied a stronger position before the
country than at present. A combination of un
toward circumstances quite unconnected with
the merits of the homestead have, for a time,
interfered to prevent its passage by the Senate;
but the JJ still small voice" of the people, speak-
ing in the calm majesty of might and justice, is
already rising above the jar of sectional and
partisan iuteiests, and insisting upon the adopL
tbm into the legal policy of the country of this,
their favorite measure. Once more let us dis
charge our duty towards it. Let us calmly place
before our fellow-citizens the grounds upon which
rest the justice and policy of the homestead and
give it the sanction of our decided approval; and
ire can afford to wait the subsidence of these el
ements of opposition, which, varied and conflict
ing in their nature, are destined to a brief dura
tion. A persevering, earnest, and steady sup
port is what the c.mntry look for at our hands, is
what she has a rhint t., expect, and will finally
enable is to lie'
It may Lc th , agdtl, indeed, by some that too
pa.,aago, at the Lao of the laud gr Id;
doll bill, ha, taken a, Q. luli,ll pretext tat
further pru,sure of (lir honwsteutl,
complihhed all that c,ild I e lostr,d or hoped I
by the Mends of that e. Surely ?DA hi,
can be further from the truth. It may be ado, 1!-
ted, indeed, that the enactment of that bill was
advancing a step in the right direction; but hew
limited the benefits it confers in comparison with
those sought by the measure under consideration!
It is seen at once that, except as regards lauds
which have been ten years in market,, the old
land system remains unchanged by the gradua
tion hill—a feature which renders it inapplicable
to much of the land in the land States, and en
tirely so to that of the Territories. It is seen,
further, that, as regards that class of lands which
has been ten years in market, the reduction is
only twenty-five cents an acre—a reduction
which, as regards the class of settlers sought to
be benefited by the provisions of the homestead,
is quite too imiguiticant to be appreciated. The
further reductions to seventy-live, linty, twenty
five, and twelve eel a half cents an acrie—accurd
mg as the lands have been fifteen, twenty, twenty
live, and thirty years in market—are still liable
to the same objection. It is only whim the lands
have been thirty years subject to private entry,
and, in consequence, are reduced to the minimum
rate provided by the graduation bill, that the
benefit becomes appreciable for th at large class
of settlers for whom the homestead bill was in
tended chiefly to provide. The conditions, how
ever, under which the public lands become re
duced to the lowest rates are such as to limit it
to the smallest and most werthle;ss portions of
the lauds in the States; and in the Territories it
can have no applicatioaat all, and, therefore, the
NUMBER 13
great objects sought by the homestead remain still
to be accomplished.
Let us proceed, however, to notice the few
objects which, in the scrutinizing analysis which
the subject has recently undergone in the other
win;; of the Capitol, senators have thought limp
er to insist upon against the principles of the
homestead bill. Thus, it has been contenthil
by certain senators of the old States, that the
public lands not acquired since the deeds of ces
sion cannot be disposed of except in accordance
with the conditions of these instruments; and
that, as regards subsequent acquisitions, the
distinction proposed by this bill
_would be un
equal, and therefore unjust. It can be success
fully shown, however, as regards the first branch
of this proposition, that, in order to comply with
that requirement of the deeds of cession, that
the lands ceded should be regarded as"a common
fund tbr the use and benefit of such of the Uni
ted States as have become, or shall become,
members of the confederation or federal alliance
of tile United States, according to their usual
proportions in the general charge and expend
iture," it is necessary to have referenci to the
conditions imposed by the eighth article of the
constitution of the confederation, namely: that
the proceeds from these lands "should be paid
into the national treasury according_ to the
amount of real estate held in' private hands in:
each State; and if any portion remain unexpend
ed, that: it shall be paid back in the same pro
portion, to the States from which collected," and
not distributed through the treasury for general
purposes.
Such was the ,
rule under the confederation, but
it is evident that under the present constitution
it is wholly inapplicable, and impossible to be
carried lute effect. The revenue of the country,
whether collected from the customs or the sale
of the public lands, is paid into the natiotial
treasury, without any reference to the rule im
bodied in the deeds of cession, and is applied
for the "general welfare," under the limitations
imposed by the constitution of 1789,and without
any reference to the eighth article of that of the
confederation. It is no longer possible to as.
certain the proportion of each State in the "gen
eral charge and expenditure"—thatptsrase having
relation to a 3lalus which has been wholly chang
ed by. the new constitution—and no longer pos
sible in the same way to pay back to the several
States parties to the "federal alliance," the sur
plus over the expeuditures fixed by Congress.
It can bemaintained, on tb.• r hand, with
irresistible strength of argument, teat the States
which were parties to the deeds of cession were
also parties to the constitution of 1789—an ar
ticle of which confers the amplest powers of dis
posal of the public lands, which the passage of
the homestead calls for. So incontrovertible is
this fact, and so complete is the abrogation by
the present constitution of all conditions prece
dent in the deeds of cession, that it can hardly
again be drawn into question. '
As to the principles of the homestead being
unjust to the old States, as regards the territory
aequi..cd :quo, the deeds of cession, the objection
a ill ,care,l3 oe deemed tenable—the subsequent,
ue.p.mltions Living been made subject to all

States Has not the public money been expend

houses, coast defences, and-public edifices? And
have they nut been the greatest sharers in all the
great measures of legislation which mark the
history of the country ? If we speak only of the
States of New England, and the sugar-growing
States of the South, have they not been the
greatest gainers by the system of high duties
But it is impossible by the system of legislation;
to benefit in the same degree, a new country in
the v,ilderness and States which have a dense
population, with few unoccupied lands. It is,
however, sufficient td prove the impartial and
paternal character of the government, if all
interests are duly remembered and benefitted in
tutu.
But again : when we'speak of benefiting the
old States. surely we mean the people of those
Slates, and. not anything whatever of an Maui
wate nature. whether mountain or plain, field or
forest, town or country. I.lso, the homestead is
a measure in which the people of the'old States
will participate the most largely, because they
have the largest number within their limits who
can take advantage of its provisions. I know,
indeed. that this very circumstance is made an
objection to the homestead, because it is pro
nounced a temptation, an inducement, to a large
class of the people of the old States, to settle on
the public domain.
But if it be true that portions of the valuable
citizens, whether native or foreign, of the old
States, shall feel inducements presented them by
this bill to emigration, is it any reason for with
holding such inducements that tho landholders
if New England, „New York, and Pennsylvania,
would thereby be Jleprived, to some extent, of
their tenants, er that the demand for farms might
be somewhat less active 1 Have the rights of
labor nu claims'to recognition on the part of
the national legislature, except as secondary" and
subsidiary to those of landholders t Sir, I am
free to confess that my reflections upon this
subject have led me to very different conclusions.
I am of opinion that government; then, bust
discharges its multifarious and responsible duties,
as far as practicable and legitimate, within the
scope of its powers, by advancing every interest
under its control. Sir, I feel convinced that no
such remnant of feudal bondage, no such slavish
doctrine as would tie the tenant to the soil of his
employer, will ever fled sanction in the free
hearts of this land. Our ancestors had done with
all that centuries ago, in the mother country,
when, from the reign of Edward I, through that
of Henry VII, and in that of Charles I, they
finally succeeded in extinguishing the tenure of
Talmage, and converted alnands in the kingdom
into free and common socage. The legal systems
of these States recognize nothing else. Our
theory of social rights, embodied in that immortal
preamble of Jefferson, recognizes nothing else.
The assuption, however, that the passage of
this bill would, for a time, operate unequally
towards the old States, by reducing the price of'
property there, is not well founded. Surely
such a consequence would not be more likely to
follow this measure than it would the pre.einp
lion system. Whatever irregularity might bathe
result of the introduction of the new policy, I
believe it would be of brief duration, and quite
inappreciable. Such are the energies of indus
try—such the stimulus of free institutions, that
no field of enterprise will long remain unoccupied.
The flood of prosperity which is continnally roll
ing over the land, like water, is ever tending to a
uniform level.
But, to dispel the apprehensions of gentlemen,

until cation—there never was a period in which
the prices vt produce and real estate in the old
States have been better zuaint :ned. Thus, not
withstanding the vast amount vt the products of
the interior which have been brought into com
petition with those of the old States, and not
withstanding the mighty , streams of emigration
to the West, by which their population have
been annually carried off, the effect upon prices
have not only been wholly unfelt, but the latter
have et cn continued to advance.
A kindred objection to the last is that which
represents the tree grants proposed by this bill
as doing injustice to thoso who have heretofore
purchased of government, at $2 and $1 i 5 per
acre. Here you make a distinction, it is said,
which works injustice to former purchasers. But
you made the same distinction, and created an
inequality which worked the same injustice,
When you reduced the price of the lands from
$2 to 25 per acre; and still later, when at the
last session you passed the land graduation bill.
By this argument, whatever policy is regard to
our land system we mar first, by accident, have
stumbled upon that, with unchangeable tenacity,
should be maintained. Such an argument Is of
no avail. You cannot tie up the hands of your
successors in legislation; and the policy which
is good for one generation may be totally un-

with them. Doubtless, the feudal system, in the
warlike times in which it flourished, in the mid
dleages, was a wise and usful institution. So ;
in the condition of things existing in Europe, a
ntonarchy in some form may be the best govern

of ideas and of social amelioration may, in-the

Sir, it is one thing to?. require a price for yorir
domain when the country' is in need of a revenue,
and another and quite different one to give it free
to actual settlers when it is no longer needed for
revenue, and in order to carry out a great scheme
of policy, not less latiorable to individuals than
to all the great interests of the countrya policy
which, more than any other, will offer its appro r
prime inducements to labor; will ..build up into
organized societies the untenanted wilderness, and
people the solitary leagues of fertile soil which
stretch away from the confines of the States to
the western ocean.
It was insisted with much earnestness by a diS
tinguishedsenator from Delaware (Mr. Clayton,)
that this is a partial measure; that it is class
legislation; that ;ill men cannot turn farmers;
and that, therefore,
in order to equalize your
bounty, you should grant money Lithos° who
cannot use land. But, tried by the test, it may
safely be said, that never,has a law of a beneficial
eharacter obtained a place upon your statute
book but what the interests for which it provided.
have been partial and limited. If this is a true
objection, let me ask oneazmore, does it not lie
just as strongly against the pre-emption system?
Does it not lie just as strongly against a bill for
the benefit of manufacturers! for the - benefit'ef
soldiers and marines?---qv for a bill raising th
salaries of judges? If a man desires the special
benefits of this legislation let him bring hinmelt
within the class upon which the bounty is con
ferred. Let him fight the battles of his country;
let him engage in the working of metals or the
spinning of cotton, in the culture of cane and the
boiling of sugar; or let him become a dignitary
of the bench, and he will share directly in the bene
fits of the legislation, if it be special. These are
all staple interests of the country, and it is com
petent for all to engage in them without let or
hinderance. Who ever thought of making it an
objection to the law allowing land bounty to the
widows of soldiers, that unmarried women could
receive no benefit therefrom? Who ever object
ed to the imposition of a forty per centum duty
upon iron, that it did not benefit the boiler of
salt? Or who ever considered it being injustice
to the rest of the community that you appropri
ate money for the construction of marine hospit
als, open only to seamen or boatmen?
Sir, the objection that the homestead will not
directly benefit every class of industry in the
country, and in equal degree, Is of a kind simi
lar to that in the instances just mentioned ; and
it is equally futile in. all. Every man, whether
rich or poor, has the power or privilege, if his
circumstances will permit him—of which, as is
other cases, he is left to be the judgeot
coming an actual settler on the pnblia domain,
and thus participating direcly in the. , benefits
conferred by tids , bill. We claim it, however, as
lieost positive and favorable distinction of this
asnre—which regards the cultivation' of-new
soil, and bringing under civilizing influences new
territory—that it does benefit, not the less surely
and decidedly, because indirectly,- the - gieat in
terests of manufactures and commerce, and in a
higher degree than any other special measure
whatever. ;
Another ground of oppositken, much insiettal
on by distinguished Senatoifs, is the-favor shown
by the bill to American residents of fasciae-birth:
But what is the condition of things undwr‘tbili
existiug'syetem? Foreigners, not even citizens,
are allowed to settle on the public lands under
the pre-emption laws of 1880 and 1841, and it
has been deemed sufficient if they have become
citizens at the reception of the patent for their
locations. And by the very liberal provisions of
the gnidaation bill passed at the last session,
and approved August 4, 1854, " ady *arson"
can enter as an occupant, and settle upon the
:ands, and acquire a title and patent at the grad
uated and reduced rates. Upon what reasons of
policy, of justice, of humanity, should more rig
,rous conditions be imposed upon any of the ob
jects upon whom the provisions of this bill will
operate ? Is it proposed to exclude foreigners
altogether Then you must repeal the natural
initial; laws, and adopt *a policy worthy of an
cient-Egypt, or modern Japan. But let us he
careful in doing so, that we belie not the great
principles which lie at the basis of our Govern
ment, and that we prove not ungrateful to the
memories of our fathers, and to those noble and
self-sacrificing spirits who were prodigal alike of
their money and their blood, throughout the two
wars which secured' us in the establishment of
our independence ; - and to the thousands who
since have come to cast their lots with oars, in
corporating themselves with us, becoming assim
ilated to our institutions and usages, and infusing
an element of incalculable strength in our re
publican system.
I believe, sir, that it is a futile notion that, by
any policy short of a repeal of the naturalization
laws, and perhaps, even a prohibition to the exile
of a "home and a country," you will be able to
stop the influx of foreigners. The premium held
out by our republican institutions will attract
crowds, till the population of the continents shall
at last be equalized. You pannot stay this resist
less wave of immigration. The ever crowded dis
tricts of the Old World will heave it upward and
onward, and it must struggle for a subsistence
and a home. It is, then, far more philosophical .
to seek such a disposition of it as, from a source
of mischievous irritation, shall convert it into one
of profit to the State; and, while assimilating it to
our institutions, shall make it tributary to the
general prosperity.
It has, again, suited the purpose of the oppo
nents of the bill, to view it as designed to oiler
bounties to interfere with the natural course of
industry, converting the followers of commercial
pursuits and mechanics, into farmers; and great
evils have been predicted to follow from this dis
ruption of old pursuits. The farmer, it is said,
will not only have his land cheapened in the old
States, by the withdrawal of population, but the
price of produce will be reduced by the competi
tion of the number of those, who have turned
farmers. In this anticipation ' however, no ac—
count is taken of the overstocking of trades, pro
fessions, and business pursuits, and by the mire
bets which the advance of each fresh generation is
annually pouring into their ranks. Poverty and
want are the inevitable result to large numbers.
By this bill, we only provide a refuge for this
surplus, where by the "sweat of the brow" they
may, at least, obtain a livelihood; for agriculture,
as a pursuit, has this favorable peculiarity, that
it enables its follotven; to obtain the means of
living; if it does net furnish them with any great
surplus for exchange. While in other callings,
the ability of an individual to sustain himself,
depends upon the quantity of his peculiar pro
ducts which may be wanted by others; the agri
culturist can live in a great measure of what he
produces. Sir, if the prosperity of the old States
depends upon a large surplus of poor population,
so that labor shall be cheap and abundant; audit
we are called upon to sustain this prosperity by
so shaping our legislation as that the masses
than be kept ground down to the earth, in order
that landed proprietors and capitalists shall re
ceive eitravagant rents and revenues, I, for one
shall ever protest against the wrong. I prefer,
rather, a policy in accordance with the noble
sentiment of the poet: "Fiat jurfilta rualcaelem."
Let justice be done though the heavens fall.
But the argument against the bill on the monad
of injury to the old States, in the phases in which
we have considered it, is not borne out by the
facts. It is shown, uncontrovertibly, by statistics,
that while the Western States have bees forming,
the progress of the old States In wealth and
population bas been proportionate. An exami
nation of the facts thus collected, discloses the
interesting truth, that while in the last ten years,
the old States have advanced, in population one
hundred per centum faster, than the most flour
ishing of the European States, the land States
have, at the same time, received from them more
than one-fourth of their wholepopulation. There
is, in truth, no antagonism; and it is in vain that
th e opponents of the measure ;could attempt to
create any. A benefit conferred upon one State,
is quickly diffused among all—thus resembling
mercy in the quality ascribed to it by the great
dramatist.
A Senator from Delaware, (Mr. Bayard,) dis
tinguished alike for his learning and legal acumen,
has been pleased to term the measure "an illn
stun ;" mark the words, air, anillusion"—there
is nothing in it he says, "it is all an illusion."
have no doubt, Mr. Speaker, that to the Jaco
bites of the seventeenth century, the abdication'
of James 1, and the aciessiun of William of
Orange, seemed at first illusion." . But the
succession of one line of the Stuarts was then
broken, and the House of Hanover is gill upon
