Attacks Work of Land Board.

Alleging gross mismanagement of
the various state land boards in the
administration of public lands during
the last twenty years, Speaker Lubers
created furore at the Tuesday night
session of the House. The speaker
took the floor in committee of the
whole on Representative Clark's bill
to admit school lands to irrigation dis
tricts, not for the purpose of opposing
or supporting the measure, but to air
his personal views on the work of the
land office.
Without going into specific circum-
stances he characterized the admins
tration of the office during the last
twenty years as blot on the history
of the state. 1t speculated and did not
put the lands to the best uses, he as
serted, and the state had suffered
greatly in consequence of the dos-in-
the-manger policy. Under proper ad-
minstration he declared the land office
could be of great assistance in the de-
velopment of the state.
The Clark bill was passed to third
reading.
