CLAIMS MAY ‘COST FORTUNE Madison, Wis., March 20.—Claims totalling ‘many thousands of dollars may be filed against the state of Wis- consin, as the result of a dispute over the validity’ of titles to land which formerly was part of Indian reserva- tions. Land owners have already made demandsupon the state for re- imbursement in sums ranging from a few hundred dollars to more than $48,000. Lumber companies are mak- ing the heaviest demands. Years ago the government made school land grants to the state giving the stateceach section 16. The state) construed the grant to include all sections 16 in Indian reservations and later sold a large amount of tis heav- | ily timbered reservation land to lun- | ber companies. The federal supreme court has de-} elded that the grant did not include reservation land, and as a result, the title of lumber companies to such property has. been attacked. The main point at issue now is whether the state must refund to the purchasers, the original purchase price or a price equivalent to the} present value of the property.

From that year until he reached the age of 35, Vivier mado regular trips every summer through a region sand years ‘before. Buffalo were as “thick as flies” in those days, accord- ing to the pioneer and the chief win- ter sport was buffalo: hunting. From 1852 until 1856, Vivier served the Hudson’s Bay company from Fort Ellice to York Factory, at a salary of $135 a year. This route meant canoo| trips down the Assiniboine river to Winnipeg and thence via the Red Riyer and Lake Winnipeg to “Tae Wactory.”, When the Indians wers quiet, the trips were uneventtul, save for brushes with wild animals but | when the red men were on the war path, silent death lurked at every bend in these streams. Many parties which started from Ellice failed to reach their destination and no trace of them ever was obtained. “ “Our hardest job was to fi the ‘Indians to protect our liquor, said Vivier, recently. | Vivier has lived rather un unevent- ful life for 40 years. “J got enough by the time I was sixty, so I became a farmer,” he Until recent years he worked farm and made regular fishing trips but wien he became 97 he decided to retire, so he came to the Old ‘folks home.
