Change in land laws urged by state paper discussion
A Stanley County resident argues for raising homestead allotments west of the Missouri to 640 acres to spur settlement and development. The piece cites economics and rainfall, noting 160 acres cannot sustain farming or stockraising. It references Fort Pierre, the Gra wine editorial stance, and the desire for honest land office oversight.
