This report notes actions taken by Senator Benjamin R. Tillman regarding western land grants. Tillman introduced a resolution calling on President Roosevelt to communicate with the Senate, but failed to specify particular areas of land he was concerned with. Senator Charles William Fulton later reported a substitute resolution, which specifies the areas in question. Relevant pages of the Congressional Record containing remarks by Tillman and Fulton are noted for reference purposes.
