THE citizens of Flathead county are to
petition the state board of land COM
inissiobers for the sale of state lands,
protesting against the present system of
leasing. as tending to discourage actual
settlement. The leasing system, while it
apparently produces a large revenue to
the state, has the most pernicious effect
ot any policy heretofore adopted for dis
posing of the public domain. In the.
first place the land agents have made
their selections under grants from the
general government apparently in the
i|nterest of the state, being ever o. the
alert to choose lands with reference to
their proximity to water and general
value, without any regard for compact
ness and tie possible necessities of
actual settlers, as witnessed in the selec-
ton OF q STRIP 30 miles long and me-
fourth Of a nile wide on Willow c~oUlee,
north OF the Marias in Choteau county,
1t is noticeable that as soon as one OF
these selections is made, the land is
gobbled up under a lease by some of the
bigfcompanies, which suggests that there
is method in the selections. We recog-
nize the wight of existence as the just
due OF all, Tut protest against the &C

the rate received for ordin airy labor, but
an experiment would demonstrate the
fallacy Of this argument. The people of
the west demand the first quality of
wooden goods and continue to pay ex-
orbitant prices for them, for under pres
emit conditions the wool passes through
so many hands that high prices r in
evitable. Let the wool be taken from
u ranges and turned into a finished
product without the Intervention OF
commission men and railroad companies,
then will the wool grower have some,
thing to say about the price OF his wool
and the Teton county sheep herder can
roll himself in blankets made Of the pure
article, unadulterated with shoddy, and
at a reasonable cost.
The recent experience OF a Choteau
county sheepman, who closed out his last
years consignment, paying charges for
freight, insurance, grading, commission
and interest amounting to over $500 on
wool which sold for $4,000 is an example
showing that a change in the business
policy OF the sheepmen is necessary.

SCHOOL TEACHERS
INACCURATE STRIKE
School Board of West Pittston Has
Not Paid Them and They
Will Not Work.

Within the past few years this vicin-
ity has witnessed strikes of almost
every character. but it remained for
Pittston to bring forth the most unique
strike in the history of this section of
the stated strike of the school teach
ers of PittstOn township.
For several years the school teachers
have been paid with most woeful
rregularity. and some of them are said
to hold orders on the treasury for back
salaries amounting to from 5000 to ST.
00O. covering periods of service ranging
from six months to over eighteen
months. Occasionally they would re-
ceive a months pay. or some of the
merchants of the town would allow
them goods on an order. Affairs APP
preached the climax three weeks ago.
when the fifteen school teachers of the
township organized a union. and at
meetings thoroughly discussed the seri-
Gus state of their finances at the APP
prOach of Christmas.
They decided to strike When the
10000 or more school children of the
township reached the schools yesterday
morning the doors We're closed. This
was unusual. for the school teachers
there have been punctual. 1t was a
short wait for the pupils until the
teachers appeared and informed them
there would be no school. as they were
out on strike.
The board has made many unkept
promises to the teachers. and the latest
is that they will give them sufficient
money Monday to tide them over
Christmas time. The treasurer. it is
said. informed the strikers that the
funds of the treasury We're low. and
that there were important bills that
had to be paid
