TuE GAZETrE has not been furnished
with list Of the instructions issued to
the squad Of grass commissioners to
whom has been delegated the task OF
forcing the lease law upon the West.
This is doubtless a private matter.
Whether n system OF rebates and
discounts has been adopted for the
benefit of the large monopolisl may
not be known, but It Is fair to presume
that some sort OF persuasion will be used.
II will not do to say that the object of
the spies is to detect illcgully alone, be-
cause That would be- 10 impcach the
efficiency of the entire official corps Of
the West, and, 80 iaras we have observed,
that has never been done by the board.
\ serious if not insupcrablc obstacle
To- success in this direction lies in the fact
that before the grass commissioners can
collect my evidence OF violations OF law
they must make surveys and determine
boundaries u task that would probably
require the entire squad of spies the bal
uncc of their lives. II then these new
creations OF the board are to do anything
at all besides accumulate travelling cx.
pcnScN and draw salaries, they must treat
with the cattle barons, argue with them
and show them the blessings TO the cattle
interests that are to accrue from the LEAFS
ing system
We have Il suggestion to make In re-
gard TO the duties OF these cmiSsarics
II is that while scouting in the interests
OF the lease they be instructed to prepare
a report IN the agricultural possibilities
of the country thus sought to be set
aside Tor grnzmg purposes, aud let 1t be
accompanied by II liberal estimate OF the
revenues possible under leasing system,
Let these be published side ny side, and
