REDUCES THE PRICE
Commissioner Terrell viii Make
Leases for One Year on School
Land at 3 Cents Per Acre.
Prom the Alpine Avalanche.

Prom the Alpine Avalanche
Hon. J. J. Terrell commits
sioner of the general land Office of
Texas, spent Wednesday here. In
reply to al offer of tie Avalanche
20 publish whatever he might
have to say to people of the AL
pine country, he talked at consid-
cradle length. The gist of what
he said is as follows:
FIRST, it should be remembered
that he is sworn officer, under
bond and charged with the adj
ministratlon Of sacred trust.
He does not blame the stockmen
or Others for wishing to lease or
purchase the school lands for u
low price, but if they would put
themselves in his place they could
understand that 1t is his business
to go dispose of these lands rs to
secure the largest possible benefit
to the school fund. 1t is his duty
to consider not only the present
but the probable future condit-
ions. Is it right for the state to
award leases so low that the lessee
can sub-lease at n profit without
adding anything to the value of
the land? This has been done in
numerous instances. Nor is il
right that the school land should
be sold or leased for less than
private owners are receiving for
lands that are no better.
He appreciates the discouraging
conditions that now prevail, re-
sulting from drouth, low prices Of
cattle and transportation difficult
ties, and in consideration Of these
things he is willing to award
leases for one year at the mini
mum price of three cents per
acre. He believes conditions are
now at their worst and that an
improvement may he expected
very soon. As II rule, copious
rains follow drouth and he eX.
poets they will begin early, prob
ably IN AprlI. rs soon rs grass
begins to spring up, there will be
n demand for all the vearlings
that can be had The Panhandle
alone will take all the trnns-Pecos
ranchmen will have to offer
Prices, too, will be better. Con-
gress may he relied on TO curb the
power of the packers combine
and authority to enforce its rul-
ings will be given TO the inter
state railroad commission. When
the tide of prosperity begins to
flow, all who are in the cattle
business will wish to stay in and
there will be scramble of new
men who will want to get in. The
national election was mentioned
as II disturbing factor that will
soon he eliminated.
Han snl1c D,,nA,
The San Angelo press. (San Angelo, Tex.) 1897-1907, 1904-04-14


Texas to Kansas now in consider
able numbers for grass, and the
movement IS considerably above
the normal on account of the con-
tinued adverse conditions prevail
ing in the range country of this
state. Some of the cattlemen will
not move their stuff, however, as
they believe plenty of rain will
come this month, and will resort
to feeding if necessary to keep
their cattle at home.
Leading Wyoming stockmen
who have returned from trip
over the range country of that
state say that cattle are in prime
condition and have not looked so
we'll at this time of year for
twenty years. Sheep are also in
fire shape. Several ilockmasters
report losses of three or four head
only in bands numbering several
thousands. The range is general
ly dry, however, and while grass
IS coming, it is growing slowly on
account of the dry weather
If the lack Of competition in
the markets is what is
placing the beef producer of the
country so completely at the
mercy of the packers, then it
stands to reason that the only
hope Of relief les in the promo
tion Of the needed competition.
There Is II way to do this, and the
remedy should be found and
promptly applied.
No other industry on earth
would have submitted so long and
so patiently to wrong as has the
cattle industry to the conditions
that have prevailed now for prac-
tically n year and Il half. If it
had been the cotton producers Of
the south, or any other represent
atlve industry of the country II
change would have been forced t
the most drastic measures had
been necessary But the average
stockmun is II man of patience
lie is content to suffer much
wrong and lndIgnity without max
ing complaint, and does SO until
the limit has been reached. When
the limit comes, however, no man
on earth will stand up more val
iamtly tor his rights, and that
explains why the end Of the pres
ent intolerable situation is i'm
sight. The cattlemen Of the
country are thoroughly aroused,
and they are going to make them
selves felt. They have been IL
long time IN awakening. but they
are going to stand hitchcd no
longer. The approaching Denver
meeting will demonstrate that
fact to the satisfaction Of the
wOllt
Land Commissioners Terrell has
done the proper thing in agreeing
to reduce the lease price of school
land back to three cents per acre
for the term of one year. Any
other course under the circum-
stances would have worked great
hardship on the men who are
leasing land that is worth but
little to them ut this time out IN
the dry districts of the west. They
should not be required to pay
more than the land is worth to
them, and there are many thous-
ands of acres of the states school
land that will cost the gTaZier
dearl Y for the next year, even at
the reduced price Of three cents
per acre. There has been much
caustic criticism of the action of
the land commissioner i'm adVanc-
ing the price of the land in the
first instance, but his later action
in reducing the price will impress
the lessees with the fact that he
can be depended upon to do them
Justice. Mr.. Terrell is TO be con-
graduated upon the wisdom and
Justice Of his action.

Club Notes.

Unusual interest already is being
manifested In the Seventh Biennial
convention of the General Fedora
ton of Woman's Clubs to be held in
st. Louis May II to %.
Several causes lead to this interest.
Questions of Importance to club
women are to come up before the
convention, and club memb ers say
the biennial is not to be "three
ring circus" as the program is az
ranged SO no two departments will
hold sessions simultaneously. The
last and most potent cause Is the
fact that the gates to the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition will be open
during the biennial and the celebra-
ton of Woman's Day at the fair
will occur during the National Con-
vention..
The club women of St. LOUIS
have appointed committees to see to
the matter of hotel accommodations
for the visitors and all that can be
done for the comfort and con-
venience of visiting delegates and
representatives, will be done.
