Book Description
Excerpt from The Condition of the Western Farmer: As Illustrated by the Economic History of a Nebraska Township As we have noticed, the first emigrants to Nebraska had no better title to their chosen lands than squatters' rights, and they had to combine and often make use of force to secure peaceful possession. As this was prior to the time of the homestead acts,1 the emigrants had to rely mainly on the pre-emption acts for acquiring lands, and it was not until 1859 that a general public sale was ordered. The progress of settlement was greatly retarded by the number of speen lative claims that had been staked out as soon as entrance to the territory had become a possibility; for a new-comer would soon find himself forced to go eight or ten miles back from the river, or pay some speculator an exorbitant price for the opportunity to settle on the better situated piece of land which the latter had in his clutches. As a result a large amount of land remained unimproved in the midst of the newly opened farms, and permanent damage was done the country.
