fishes school system for the Terri
tory.
The bill was drawn with a special
view to giving, as near as may be,
local self government in all things.
Judge Tollett thinks an important
feature of the bill is the elimination
of the regulation county seat and
county line fight, which always
retard legislation when brought be-
fore the committees of congress.
The bill assumes it to be fact
that the people on the ground know
better what should be done in this
connection than a nonresident lobby
in Washington. All officials not
elected are to be appointed from ac-
tual residents of the Territory. The
larger towns cannot absorb the mem
