By the organic Act OF the Territory
Congress, as was customary, very wisel!
) and generously set apart and reserved from
private entry and sale two sections O
: land in each township in the Territory
the 10th and 32d sections-for schoo
purposes, but apparently left the matter il
an uncertain tenor as to who should be ths
rightful custodian OF such lands. And al
though this fact has been apparent tol
years, no effort, that we are aware of, has
ever been made by our Delegates in Con.
gress to get the law defined, or a proper
person designated or appointed for the
purpose.
Anot' . point in which we are deeply
interested is this: many of those school
sections, or portions of them. were settled
upon previous to the Government surveys
and in large lumber Of instances the set
tiers have been permitted, under the rules
and regulations of the Land Office, to
prove up and complete titles to the same
thus virtually depr;ving the Territory and
its common schools OF the benefit of the
generous provision of the act.
This is matter that deeply concerns us
in all our educational interests, and to us
there seems no good reason why Congress
should not be requested. through the Ter
ritorial Legislature and our Delegate. to
make provision for locating other lands In
place Of those entered upon, as we have
stated, by actual settlers. In our opinion.
this should not only be done, but a COM
pctent person should be appointed whose
business it should be to select and locate
school lands in lieu of those sold 10 actual
settlers. aad also to exercise such care and
supervision over all the school lands in the
Territory, so that future settlements and
depredations on said lands may be effect,,-
ally prevented.
The agricultural portions of the Terri
tory are rapidly filling up, and all the
choice locations will soon be settled upon
and entered under the homestead, pre-emp-
ton, desert or timber culture acts. Then
1t Will be too late to secure anything of
appreciable valle for school purposes.
We can see no good reason, either. why
our school lands should moi be made avail
able, at least in part, while we are in a
Territorial condition. We certainly stand
IN as great need OF assistance ut this period
as We can possibly do in the future. The
people OF Montana to-day, with an ambi-
ton seldom equalled, and self-sacriticing
devotion to the educational interests of the
Territory, never excellcd, taxing them
selves almost unreasonably and beyond
endurance to erect suitable buildings and
maintain our common schools. The bur-
lens could be rendered perceptably lighter
/ the General Government would give its
,ensent to the sale Of portion of tie
school lands at an early day, and neither
ne Government nor the future state of
Montana would be in the least degree in
ured thereby.
In all our local interests, no other lecis-
alton Is of greater importance or more I
mperatively required than that in regard
o our school lands. and our future Dele l
.ate in Congress, whoever lie NAV he.
hould be requested and instructed by the {
eople to use bis first and best endcayors I
accomplish the desirable end. t
