Settlers Rush Wallace County School Lands After Lease Ruling
Following the attorney general’s ruling that all existing leases on western Kansas school lands are invalid, a rush of settlers occupies Wallace county lands. Settlers must reside a year and invest $100 in improvements before appraisal and final proof. Purchase requires a down payment of one twentieth and twenty years to pay the balance at 6 percent. This opens thousands of acres for settlement and promises rapid occupancy.
