S. Ouster. By the Associated Press. DENVER, October 15.—Pioneer Colo- radoans prepared today to defend their farms against an influx of homestead- ers who, the Federal Government has declared, are entitled to 20,000 acres of the richest soll in the West. The Government ruling sets forth that the Union Paclfic Railroad, through jone of its subsidiaries, was given 20,000 acres too much under the land grant act of 1867. The land 1s, therefore, held 1o be open to settlement. Although the order was issued in June, it was not made public here until late yesterday, when Willlam R. Eaton and Charles B. Timberlake, Represent- atives in Congress, began a hurried ef- | fort to have it rescinded. Ready to Use Force. More than 200 ploneer families bought the land from the railroad and improved and farmed it for more than 50 years. Most of the disputed sofl lies in Weld County, the center of Colorado's sugar | beet industry. Under the Interfor Department's rul- ing. the farmers who have occupied the land for half a century are barred from filing because first rights go to ex- service men. Local officials said the department did not publish its action in newspapers as is the custom. Publication of an account of the ac- tion by Colorado papers brought an im- mediate response from farmers, who declared they would nov surrender their lands to “land-jumpers” and would de- fend thelr property with force if necessary. | The Denver Land Office reported some | claims have been filed, and more per- | Sons are seeking legal description of homestead lands daily. Officlals said they expected a rush to the former rail- road holdings. | Carry Plea to Washington. Attorneys said that they believed pres- ent owners eventually will secure title {fo thelr property if the cases go to court, but that they will have difficulty in legally removing homesteaders in the meantime. Representative Eaton today prepared a request to the Interior Department to Suspend the order at once. Represent- ative Timberlake has left for Washing- fon to seek immediate relief for the ploneers.
