400. His peculations covered the whole
term OF service as clerk of the school board.

LAND ANDcoMMlss,oNeR.sREpoR
States Revenues from Leases and
Real Estate Sales.

| Real Estate Sales.
Land Commissioner Eastman has about
completed his biennial report for the PEE
riod ending June 90, 1900, in which he
shows the work which is being done toward
building up fund for the benefit of the
common schools and various educational
institutions of the state.
After a general review as to the methods
of handling the state funds, he gives few
statements in his letter of transmittal, call
ing attention to the tabulated work in the
body of the report, which gives in full just
what is being done by the Office and which
is of interest generally, as are all the de-
parmentS of state which have to do with
| the revenues.
The letter shows that the amount of the
permanent school fund now held by the
state, which has been received from var-
Gus sources, is ,926, on which the
state is drawing interest for the benefits OF
the schools. The amount which the de-
partment has paid toward the support of
the common schools of the state since 1890
| is Sl,377.747.
The state was granted 2150.4S0 acres of
common school lands, which does not in
cluue the sections III reservations granted
for such purpose.
Attention is called to the fact that with
the additional s., 200 for clerk hire and $i0t'
for expenses granted the department by
the last legislature, it has been able TO se-
cure Typographical records of the state
lands in Il number OF counties, and also to
keep Il man in the field looking after tres
passers, securing by this lease funds from
many tracts which have been used for
years without any revenue TO tine state, in
which the new deputy has many times paid
the additional cost to the state. \ still
greater appropriation is asked of the COM
ing legislature to further carry OH this
work.
Attention is further called to the fact
that the state owns Il number of large
tracts of land which it is hard TO lease on
account of lack of water, AMI especial at
tentiOn is called to Il tract of SIS. 40 acres
in Fall River County, for which an appro-
priation is asked to sink an ;rtesian we'll,
taking the position that the rental would
soon pay any such expense and bring the
state IL profit from property which is now
bringing nothing.
Out of 23S. l0;i acres of state lands sold
only 400 acres have come back to the state
by the failure of the purchaser to make the
required payments.
Cnder the provisions of the act allowing
the sale of dead and down timber on state
lands, such timber has been disposed of to
the amount of 81 ,4M.50, most Of this being
in Lawrence County.

Question Has, Arisen in Yankton
and Other Counties Concerning
the Eligibility Of County School
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Items.

a controversy has been raised in Yank-
ton County concerning the eligibility of
Il. Il. Williams. lately elected county
superintendent on the Republican ticket.
His opponents raise the point that he has
had no state certificate for one year prior
to his election, as required by law. The
records of the state superintendent show
Williams was granted a certificate on June
III, 1900. This would make him short of
the necessary time required by law. but
the department of education holds that he
is still not disqualified, as the law permits
the holder of II first grade certificate to be
county superintendent of schools. A great
deal Of controversy has arisen in the state
superinteMdents under this provision of
the statute, and the case of Mrs. Kings
bury. wife of the late Superintendent
kngsbury of McCooll County, who de-
sired TO be appointed after the death of her
husband, WAS submitted to Attorney Cen
cral Pyle for an opinion in February, lSg9.

ii sought to establish qualifications for II

mentioned i'll the constitution of the state
and that Il county superintendent need

ler OF Pennington County. who was re-

the statute, in which event the supreme
court will in all probability pass upon the
constitutionaliiy of the law.
