Letter from the United States Department of the Interior, General Land Office, to Senator Eugene Casserly regarding Casserly's proposed Senate Resolution to establish a "law distributing the public lands of the United States in California into different classes with a view to their more speedy settlement and disposition." The Land Office replies with reasons why this plan would be untenable, including the difficulties of defining land value, re-distributing already settled land, the additional surveying costs, and the problem of vandalism over supposed gold and silver deposits.
