I move to strike out the last word. I make that motion for the purpose of asking the gentleman from South Dakota a question. if I can have his attention. I am advised that very many of the difficulties suggested by him as growing out of the sudden influx of immigration into those towns have been settled by a common consent among the people themselves. that by common consent a system has been agreed upon by which these disputes are settled or are being settled. and that in all the larger places provision has been made for a record of such title as shall be settled by these selfconstituted authorities. If I am correctly advised upon this point. it obviates to a great extent the difficulties which occur in the case as it is presented here. because many of those difficulties have been settled by the people themselves in a manner which. though without the force of law. is recognized by common consent of the people. Am I right as to that ?
