ting a certain class or incubator politi.
clans from the big towns to dictate It's
policy upon the school land question
and force into the platform a plank
that was a cowardly straddle, void OF
merit and void OF common sense. We
believe the next democratic platform
here In Oklahoma will declare for the
sale of the school lands at an ap-
appraised value OF the raw land ,ex.
elusive of the Improvements, they be
ing appraised independent Of the land
that the preference right Of purchase
be given the lessee: that the land be
sold on twenty years time, the de
fewed payments drawing interest at
the rate Of three per cent per annum,
with the privilege of paying the en-
tire amount any time after FIVE years,
but not more than onefourth of the
purchase price TO be paid during the
first five years We believe It should
further declare that in case the lessee
fails to take the land at the appraised
value the land should be sold to the
next applicant, together with the inn
proyements. the money derived from
the improvements to be paid to the
lessee. That is the only sensible prop
osition to go before the people with.
AS soon as the land becomes sold it
becomes taxable, thereby increasing
the assessable valuation of every
township 1t protects the lessee to
the amount of the value OF his i'm
provements, regardless Of whether he
buys the laaG, hence he win put better
and more valuable improvements up
on his school land II will bring into
the school fund an enormous revenue
in the way of interest alone. and il Is
immaterial whether the land is ever
paid for, so long as the interest is
paid for the principal is secured by
the land. AS a result of this policy It
would increase the assessable valua-
tion of every township and thereby
lessen the burden of taxation it
would place better and more substan-
tial Improvements upon the school
lands thus enhancing the values Of ad-
jacent lands: it would transform the

crease the revenue for school plr-
