S. land. But now five of them own it, and draw large incomes from it, while remaining at home beyond the Atlantic.

S. land, if it were not a source of income, even without special application of any labor energy to it. But now the former syndicate owns 5,000,000 acres of grazing land in Western States; and the latter owns 2,000,000 acres of it in various States, as the “Up to Date, Coin’s Financial School,” has indicated, pp. 108-118.
