Suit Filed to Test Railroad Land Question
Portland Sept 16 John L Snyder of Columbia County Oregon filed suit in federal court against the Oregon and California railroad and the Union Trust Company to decide if Congress 1868 1870 acts required the railroad to permit US citizens to settle lands granted to the railroads and to sell at 250 per acre in parcels not exceeding a quarter section.
