State Leader Misrepresses Homestead Debate
In an article from Basin, Wyoming, the writer argues that Senator Walteh, a Democrat, affected the passage of the section homestead bill by his actions, claiming Republicans including Senator Gallinger opposed the measure. The piece credits Walteh with blocking earlier versions and praises the Wyoming senator for advancing land legislation benefiting public lands, while noting disappointment from supporters about rights denied under the current law. A classified notice from J. R. Bouwell of Basin advertises land and drilling opportunties.
