It appears that about oncein a generation the wealth produced by the labor of the people is transferred from their hinds through usm as a conduit to the possession. fwnership. andenjoyment comparatively oef afewpersons. Such a -condition. unless there is an outlet for the overflow of population. must bring disaster and eventual national ruin. The only reason why the nations of Europe have been this long enabled to endure the strain is that war and emigration have kept their apopulation below the level of perpetual revolt. The United .States of America has absorbed vast numbersof such immigrants. but. as was shon last Wednesday by the Senator from Oregon bM.. DOLPH . our available public mlands are about all taken up under the land laws and our own overflow of population no longer has an outiet. When an Indian reservation is opened up for settlement men and women risk their lives inn mad rane for homes.
