Want Revenue From Lands.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-A plan has
been devised by Congressman Scott.
of Kansas, which he hopes to see in.
corporated in the agricultural appro-
priation bill, to make the public graz.
ing lands of the west revenue.pro'
ducers for the government. In the
past they have been the source of end.
less expense. The scheme is to place
all such lands under the control of
the forestry bureau and authorize the
leasing of them to cattlemen under
regulations issued by the bureau, as
is proposed to be done with coal
lands. Clifford Pinchot, chief of the
forestry bureau, is working on the
matter, and it is understood that
President Roosevelt is in hearty &C.
cord with the plan. The proposition
has been presented to the house com.
mittee on agriculture, and it will give
the matter consideration. The mover
of the plan hopes to have a section
covering the matter inserted in the
agricultural appropriation bill. That
is the easiest way to push it through.
Some time ago 12S, 900, 600 acres Of
public timber lands were made a re.
serve and placed under the control Of
the forestry bureau. The year before
this action was taken the government
received $50, 900 for timber cut by lum-
bermen. The first year after the land
was under the control of the forestry
bureau the government received al
most a million dollars revenue from
it.
1t is claimed that the grazing lands
can be made even greater revenue
producers, and at the same time check
fraud. Under the old system the gov
eminent has spent thousands of dol
lars annually fighting cattlemen who
used the grazing lands for their cat
tie. Cattlemen would fence in the
land and use it without paying any
rental, and would ''run off" people
who we're seeking homesteads. The
interior department has kept a force
of inspectors in the field almost con.
stantly in recent years combating the
cattlemen and the western court doc.
kets have been swamped with cases
for the illegal fencing of public lands.

WANTS A SQUARE DEAL.
Governor Of Oregon Discusses Rail-
road Matters In That State.

SALEM, Jan. 15.-In his message to
the legislature submitted today, Gov.
ernor Chamberlain, with great EN-.
phasis, urges the e actment OF the law
a state railway commission,
clothed with ample powers. In states
where the right of regulation is not
asserted by the state, the governor
says, the company and the public
stand m~easurably 10 the relation of
members of a great partnership, with
the managers of the company dictat-
ing its policies and establishing its
rates, MOI only without consulting the
public, but frequently in such a way
as to injuriously affect their most
vital interests. No state has been so
liberal as Oregon in its policy toward
railroads., and it 10 not through the
illegal policy of our lawmakers If
rich sections of the state have been
''left neglected by the one great rail.
way system which practically controls
its whole traffic."
The federal government has granted
the railways within the jurisdiction OF
the state lands in amount not only
sufficient to build the lines in opera
ton, but to extend them across and
through the central, eastern and
southern portions of the state. Also
vast forest reserves have been created
in which have been included worthless
lava beds and deforested lands OF
railway companies, and in exchange
for these, the companies have been al
lowed to select hundreds of thousands
of acres of the most valuable timber
lands in the state, thus increasing by
millions the value of their original
grants.
