LAND SUBJECT TO LEASE.
Quarter Sections Vacant Through SUM-
dry Causes.

Guthrie, o. T, April 25.-Of the leases
which expired on 3,0O0 quarters of school
land on January l. 1904, ninety-four have
not been renewed. About twenty of these
are the leases of lessees who decared
that the rentas were too high and did
not make application for renewal; twelve
are leases which have been held by par
ties in fictitious names and which they
are unable to renew on account of the
rule requiring leases to be executed be-
fore notary public and signatures to be
acknowledged. The balance are those
where lessees are in arrears for rent or
for committing timber waste, in which
case they are unable to secure new leases
until they have made settlement in full
with the department.
At a meeting of the school land board
the secretary was instructed to advertise
these ninety quarters of land at once as
vacant land and lease them to the high
est bidder. The vacant quarters by coun-
ties are as follows:
Lincoln %: Pottawatomie .; Logan /;
Oklahoma. Is; Pawnee, ): Kay. !; Noble.
l: Garfield .: Blaine 8; Woods. IA: Wood
ward, 3; Day. 10; Roger Mills, .; Greer, 9.
At meeting of the school land board
the famouS Campbell-Jones case, which
had been pending before the department
for seven years. was decided.
This is the cose wherein Mitchell Camp
bell and Ben. F. Jones We're contesting for
a lease on the northwest quarter of sec

county. This case had once been decided
in Campbell's favor during the Renfrow
once been decided in
Jones favor during the Barnes admins
tration, and also at one time the land
was ordered divided between the two
mer.
The entire case was recently rehearsed
upon application for rehearing and the

pigs made very small gains during that

the latter part of the experiment each

TO APPOINT A JUSTICE.
Attorney General Simons Gives a le-
qaI Opinion.

gal opinion.
Guthrie. o. +, April 25.-Attorney Gen.
eral Simons has given the following
opinion:
Hon. T. B. Ferguson, Governor, Guth-
rie. o. T.:
Dear Sir: / have considered your re-
quest for an opinion upon the PROPOSE
ton as to the authority of the governor
to appoint a justice of the peace for a
locality where there is a vacancy in that
Office, and which question has arisen upon
the presentation to you of petition ask
ing for the appointment of one Francis
I. Norbury as justice in Beaver county
IAN examination of the law bearing
upon this question leads me TO the con-
clusion that the authority to appoint a
justice to fill vacancy is lodged in the
county commissioners of the various
counties of the territory. Section 666s,
volume 2. Wilson's annotated statutes,
provides as follows:
In case of vacancy in any town
ship Office. from any cause, the board of
county commissioners of the county where
such vacancy occurs shall appoint suit
aule person having the necessary quail
fications and residing in the township
where such vacancy exists. to fill such
Office until the next election when the
county and township officers are elected
I'm the absence Of any special pro-
vision of law authorizing the governor
or any other designated official 10 fill
a vacancy in the Office of a justice of
the peace. the general provision quoted
above authorizing the board of county
commissioners to fill vacancies in town
ship Offices would prevail. A justice of
the peace is elected as a township officer
and is so treated and regarded by our
statutes, this notwithstanding the fact
that his court has Jurisdiction co-exten-
sive with the county in which he resides.
have been unable to find any specific
provision authorizing the governor or
any other officer to fill vacancies In the
Office of justice of the peace, and there
fore conclude that the general provision
contained in section 6669 quoted above is
the one which governs in a matter Of
this kind, and that the county commits
sioners of Custer county are the proper
officials to make the appointment OF
justice of the peace to fill a vacancy in
that Office in that county.
II have the honor to remain yours very

There was quite difference in tn ecodi-
tion of the different lots before the heavy
grain feeding commenced
The steers We're common native grades
of more or less mixed breeding but short
horn blood was most in evidence They
averaged about 1000 lbs. at the beginning
Of the experiment and were three-year-
olds at the close. As might have been ex-
pected. an examination Of the carcasses
in the cooler showed more or less differ
ence in the finish between some OF the
lots. but further no i'll effects due to any
OF the rations could be seen.

the financial outcome Of the feeding:
