MICHIGAN JAX CROOKS
More Suits Filed in Van Buren,
County, Michigan, to Remove
Clouds on Titles Than in Any
Other County in the United
States.
Land Sharks and Others So Bold In
Their Juggling of Books and De
scriptions That Uncle 8am
May Get Them.
Tlioro aro nioro suits filed In tho
courts of Van Burcn Coanty, Michi
gan, to romovo clouds from land titles
than thoro aro tiled for that purposo
in any other county in tho United
States, Including thoso containing tho
largest cities in tho country.
Thoro havo been moro professional
land thlovcs at work In Van Duron
County than in nny other county in
tho United States,, and they nro still
at work.
Mon connected with cortaln lines
of business and using officials elected
In soma townships as tholr tools aro
engaged all of tho tlino in clouding
tho titles ot honest and bona fldo land
ownors.
This fact has dono moro to koop tho
county back than any other thing.
Tho bad namo given to this part of
tho Stato of Michigan by tho land
crooks is bocomlng a by-word through
out tho nation." '
Many of thoso crooks claim land
on tho strength of tnx titles ob
tained nttor tho rightful ownors had
paid tho taxes through juggling ot
descriptions and tax books.
Efforts aro to bo mado to roach
somo ot them through Federal action,
as tho pocullar holdthoy iiavoon local
authorities precludes liopo ot reform
in that dlroctlon.
Victims of thoso bands ot crooks
nro ndvlscd that It thoy llvo outsldo
of Michigan thoy can bring suit
ngalnBt officials, backors, brokorB or
others who damngo them or tholr In
terests In tho U. S. courts.'
Tho cltlzons of Van Buren County
should vnko up to tho sltuntlon and
rotlro thoso grattors to tho peniten
tiary or to somo othor placo whoro
tholr public records cannot lnjuro tho
community.
Van Buron County Is naturally rich
in soil, delightful in cllmato and geo
graphically Idoal for success in every
lino.
Its prospects havo boon blighted.
Tho testimony ot all outsldo pooplo
who havo invested tlioro Is that thoy
havo beon skinned and bothored by
tho land shark syndicate.
Congressman Thomas Gallagher of
Chicago Is one ot tho most Influential
men In Washington.
