McLaurin defends lands pledge against Vardaman attack
Senator A. J. McLaurin challenges Gov. Vardaman's May 1 statement about section 57 of the state land pledge. He explains the substitute language offered by R. H. Thompson and Boyd amendments, detailing how lands should not be donated to railroads or private firms for less than offered to individuals. McLaurin argues the vote preserved statewide fairness, noting laborers and settlers deserve equal access to state lands over corporate favors.
