[Passed March 4, 1869.]
Whereas, Time has demonstrated the fact that the Pah Ute tribe of Indians now occupying that section of territory reserved for their exclusive use by the General Government, known as the Walker River Indian Reservation, are, as non-cultivators, entirely indifferent as to the value of the arable land for agricultural purposes which is included within the said reservation; and, whereas, said land, to the aggregate number of three thousand acres or more, would be settled upon by whites who would properly till and develop it to the benefit of themselves, and an increase of the valuation of taxable property in this State, if the same should be permitted by the U. S. Department of Indian affairs; and, whereas, an occupation of the same for agricultural purposes will not interfere with the hunting and fishing pursuits of the aforesaid Indians, but will result in their employment as laborers by the settlers, as has been expressed by the U.
