RETENTION OF SCHOOL LANDS.
Is Question That Oklahoma Must Solve
When Admitted

When Oklahoma is admitted as a
state, the question OF retaining or sell
ing the school lands will be q ponder
Gus one for the people Of Oklahoma to
decide. At the present time, Secre-
tary J. j. Houston is receiving many
letters from persons in various por-
tions of the territory who desire to
fully consider this matter Many of
the persons who have looked into this
situation have the belief that it would
be far better for the state 60 retain the
Ilauds although some figures show that
for a long period Of time, at least, it
might be better to dispose Of them
after Oklahoma is given an enabling
act
The school land question, even at
this time, is quite an important one
and may mean a great deal before the
statehood proposition is concluded.
Several articles have been written by
persons who have looked up this mat
ter and the majority advocate the re
Itention OF the school lands after state
hood is secured.
