State Lands.

According to the annual report of
State Land Register Harry D. Moore,
t he past year has been a banner one
in the history of the state land Office.
AS a result OF the large business done by
the state land office, the public schools
OF the state win this year receive a large
sum Of money, reaching nearly if not
quite 50 per capita. This will be more
than double the amount received by the
schools III any previous year, and viii be
particularly appreciated by the school
officers, because of the fact that owing
to detective laws, it has not been posi-
bic to get enough money by taxation to
run the schools in some of the districts,
According to the report there were $40
new leases and permits issued during
the fiscal year just closed, covering 1873,
I'll acres, yielding an annual rental of
S42,767.24. These, together with the
leases and permits issued in prior years,
make a total Of 1912 in existence, which
during the year produced . revenue Of
Sl445383.76. There are now a total OF
l,265,895 acres under lease in different
parts of the state. After allowing for
renewals, the net increase in rentals for
the year Just closed amounts to S35.O77
.66 over the preceding year.-Helena In

Filipinos Swear Allegiance.

Manila, Dec. 3-Sunday in Vigan was
a great day for the American cause
1900 natives of the region, nearly all
fighting rebels, crowded the church and
took the oath of allegiance to the United
States. The oath was administered by
the priest. All but 500 of those sworn
were bolomen. The number included
the 1900 bolomen who had previously
surrendered.
The proceedings in the church occu-
pied the entire day and included an
address by Gen. Young and an exhorta-
ton by the priest,
Sea rcely any rebels remain in the
vicinity of Santa Maria. Gen. Young
attributed this fact to three cause.-the
re election of President Mckinley, the
arrival of q stronger body of troops and
the especially rigid enforcement of war
measures and the deportation of prison:
ers to Manila. He reports that it is
necessary to occupy all the barracks in
order to protect the natives from the
Tagalog leaders.

Congress in Session.

Washington, Dec. 2-lhe leaders of
the house are preparing to press the i'm
portant business of the short session
which %conyencs tomorrow. Already
considerable preliminary committee
work has been done on the bill for the
reduction OF the war revenue taxes, the
army reorganization bill and the river
and harbor bin and several other bills,
and the legislative mill will start under
a full head of steam.
The army reorganization bill is con
eidered pa :ticularly urgent owing % the
possibility OF its meeting strenuous op
position after it reaches the senate, and
the intention of the leaders is to get i.
out OF the way at the first possible mo-
ment. 1t will he reported probably on
Wednesday, unless after further consid-
Grafton it is decided to report the legis,
lative appropriation bill, which will also
be ready on Tuesday. The democrats
will caucus on the army DILL on Monday
and the indications nov are that d sub
stitute will be offered by them providing
that the present law for a provisional
army be extended for two to three years.
The bill to reduce war revenue taxes
has been practically completed by the
republican members of the ways and
means committee and it will be sub.
mitted to the full committee on Tues.
day, unless in the meantime 1t should
be otherwise decided upon. Tomorrow
the leaders will probably call a confer
once for the purpose of adjusting and
~harmonizing differences.

1t is interesting to note the comments
OF the press, when a great man pays the
debt of nature. No matter how persist
tHntly he is opposed during life, all Join
in recounting his good qualities when
death steps in. Bitter opposition serves
to emphasize the good qualities of a
statesman so long as he is successful in
overcoming his opponents, but the VIC
ious tongue of SANDER has brought de-
feat to many who have i'll deserved it..
Would it not be as we'll to recognize
merit during a persons lifetime, this en-
larging his capacity to do good? Death
bed repentance is probably effective,
when sincere, but the Eindication and
general forgiveness rendered your 3D.
ponent after he is gone m rather late
TO be OF any material service. We would
net counsel an abuse of the dead, but we
would advise that it is sometimes emin-
emily proper to let up on the living.

The decision of the Interior depart


The decision of the Interior depart
ment to keep sheep off the Lewis and
Clarke forest reserve next summer,
causes one to wonder if the establish
ment of a Cree reservation is contem-
plated. The sheepmen pay heavy taxes,
aud the fact that they are to be shut out
of the reserve, when they only desire to
range their sheep on the prairie portion,
in no way interfering the preservation of
the forests, will not increase their respect
for a law which fails to reach the tres
passes committed by foreign Indians.
