thing. 'Mirabile dictuP President
Pierce of tbe United States, sworn to pro
tect and advance the interest of the gov
ernment, has entered into a basecoalition
with Got. Price of Missouri, and by his
action sanctions an infamous fraud upon
tbe government, knowingly. Let it be
proclaimed from Dan to Bcersheba that
President Pierce is particcps criminis in
swindling the general government to aid
one or two States of the Union. Mr.
Picrco would have vetoed a bill granting
the public domain to the States of this
Union for school purposes, because of con
scientious scruples about its constitution
ality. Yet he aids Missouri in stealing
two hundred thousand acres of land under
the act of 1850.
But again, to dcvelopc raoro fully the
magnitude of this enormous fraud, it is
important that wc notice the decision of
the Commissioner of the General Land
Office, just prior to this coalition between
Pierce aud Price. It will be remembered
that many individuals had made applica
tion to cntor the lands selected undor the
act of 1850, and approved by the Secre
tary of the Interior as a swamp land.
That the Commissioner, in writing to the
agents of those parties on the lGth of May,
1850, said to them : 'The party filing
evidence as required by this office, and
contesting the States' claim, will, if suc-
tiessful therein, be permitted to enter the
lands.' The contestants, under this view
of the subject, went on and expended
large sums of money in having the lands
surveyed, preparatory to an investigation
of the matter. Only four cases, had been
adjudicated by the llegister and Receiver
of the Local Land Office for the Palmy
ra land district all of which were deci
ded against the State's claim before the
Commissioner turns a somerset and de
cides that where the selection has been j
approved by the Secretary of the Interior,
the lands, if proven not to be swamp, will
have to be brought into market by thirty
clays' notice thereof; but that the contest
ant would have the preference at the or
dinary cash price, where the lands had
uot been approved thus making two
classes of swamp land, and comprehend
ing the greater part in the first class.
This was done just prior to the foul com
bination between Pierce and Price.
.No reason is given for the distinction
by the Commissioner between approved
and unapproved lands, except that in
1S36 a circular was issued by the Gener
al Land Office Department to the local
officers throughout the United States, in
structing them to permit no lands which
had been withdrawn from market from
any cause whatever to be entered, with
out being first restored to market by thir
ty days' notice thereof. It is an incon
trovertible fact that both classes of this
located so-called swamp land were equal
ly withdrawn from market; none of the
loccl laud offices would permit one acre
of it to be entcrd at anjr price. Yet the
Commissioner says that the contestant
will have priority in the one class and not
in the other, because the Secretary of the
Interior has approved the one and not the
oiher.
Was there ever eny thing presented to
the mind more superlatively ridiculous!
On the 16th of May he says, in writing
about approved lands, that the contestant
of the State's claim, if successful, will be
permitted to enter the land. On the 31st
of July he says the contestant will have
the preference right to the unapproved
lands, if successful, but the approved lands
will have to be restored to market by
thirty days notice. This last decision
was made only a few days before the in
famous coalition between Pierce and
Price to defraud the government, and a
mounts virtually to this : 'You need not
trouble yourselves about the fraud that
has been committed, for if you are suc
cessful, you will have no preference right
over the speculators.'
The contestants affirm (and call upon
tbe Congress of the United States to do
them justice,) that if tbe selection of lands
under the act of 1850 was fraudulent,
said selection was null and void 'ab initio,'
and no right of the the State ever attach
ed thereto, for the reason that fraud viti
ates every transaction, even tbe most
Bolemn adjudications of a court. That
the approved by the Secretary of tho In
terior or the President of the United
States could not operate in any manner
so as to give validity to the selection. If
the premises are conceded, and we think
they will not be denied, the oldest legal
applicant for the lands thus fradulently
selected under the act of 1850, would be
entitled to enter them at the ordinary
cash price, if proven not to be swamp
within the meaning of tbe act, upon the
equitable principle mi prior est in tem
pore potior est in jure' If the govern
ment refuses to act upon this principle no
fraud can ever be detected, for there would
b.e no inducement prompting individuals
to act in the premises.
Ilaving briefly called attention to the
fraud of Missouri, in selecting land under
the act of 1850, and the infamous coali
tion between Pierce and Price to cover
the transaction, wc invoke the power of
Congress to do justice to those individuals
who have expended their money in fer
reting out the fraud upon the govern
ment WM. H. TAYLOR.
