rAosE scAooL LEASE.

Governor Haskell did not approve Of
The land leasing habitF Of the former
administration. That Is not so very
strange. for The old leases were made
great deal ike most territorial mat
ters wgte carried out, with little care
or Study given.
The school lands were a source Of
trouble to the territory. and the old
lensing board. whether through ina
hllitv 10 get the facts and valuation,
lack of time or what. failed to even
make deal that could be called fair
TO anyone. The board raised the val-
nation OF some lands as much as 200
per cent. while. in the same county,
under like conditions. there was no
advance over the lease OF three years
before.
Is Il strange that Governor Haskell
should demonstrate against the accep-
lance of ouch appraisements2
IS Il very remarkable that some
people think the old board was reck-
less Of the states and iessees inter
ests?
And while The Leader trusts no one
will believe the board would be SO
naughty as to lay traps for someone
known to be coming to Il. still some
might SO think.
The governor has done all he can
at this moment The land, owners
have done no worse than 10 make the
lands valuable for themselves and the
state alike As a body we must look
upon them as the right sort of folks.
for IN aiding self they have aided in
making a state, aud higher citiaenship
is not attalnahle.

lessee must make his crop, and the
lease not approved the pOstponement
