	note = {This look at a disgraceful episode in Lincoln County history describes land fraud that took place when former Siletz Indian Reservation lands were opened up to the public after 1894.  The fraud involved filing false homestead claims on valuable timber lands, which were then to be sold to speculators. "In the case of the Siletz entries, it is a matter of record that in nearly every instance the claims were transferred to speculators as soon as final certificates were granted by the local Land Office, and that the holders of the title were exceedingly active in securing the issuance of patents." (p.480-482) Includes b/w photographs of alleged "homestead cabins."},
