Rensselaer Gazette, Volume 3, Number 21, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 14 September 1859 — SWAMP LAND FRAUDS. [ARTICLE]

SWAMP LAND FRAUDS.

We copy in another column, from the Indianapolis “Atlas,” an article on the Swamp Land Frauds in the State of Indiana, containing important extracts from the report of the joint committee of the last Legislature. It appears from the extracts quoted that the Swamp Land frauds in Jasper county attracted a large share of the attention of the committee, and it would be of great importance to the people of this coun ty to see the report for themselves; but, unfortunately and unaccountably, th< a report ha- not yet been sent to our Clerk's office, as it should have been. Where the blame rests we cajinot tell, but hope that our R»-p resentative, Mr. Snyder, will remedy the evil by procuring the report, and we will then lay before the public all that it contains concerning Jasper county.
