As this case is decided, so probably will be the Cunningham cases and all the Guggenheim-Morganheim schemes Will the supreme court be progressive or reactic Hanford was reactionary Hanford’s decision would give the land and its re to the man or corporation wh can get away with the technicalities of the law.” The same laws face the supreme court justices as Judge Hanford. Their decision, like practically every decision, will pe their interpretation of what the men who made the law meant. What the law makers meant—remember to be a lawyer to understand that What did the law makers mean? Through all the years of homesteading, under which the big Western country grew up, the plan was this: To give the land at cheapest prices to the man and the woman who were willing to settle on it and develop it. Hanford’s decision would allow people to locate by proxy—people who never expected to even see the land they located on, but who would turn it over to a big corporation. It would dllow “dummies” to enter on the land—people who never expected to develop it—people who were working all the time in the interest of a great, selfish monopoly. Did the people intend to allow this when they sent men to Washington to make laws for them? Did those law makers contemplate that the laws they drew up would be used to for ward the crooked schgmes of monopoly? Roosevelt knew the people didn’t intend to have the Mor ganheigi monopoly grab off Alaska, and protested. Pinchot knew it and protested.
