Tax lands Sold at Good Prices.

According to the annual report
of the state land commissioner
the fiscal year which ended June 80,
1910, has been the most successful
in the history of the department.
At the close of the fiscal year in
1909 the state was in the possession
of 604,172 acres of land. Since that
time the auditor general has decided
to the state, under the provisions of
the tax homestead law. 215.565 acres
and there reverted to the state, in
compliance with the homestead law
and from other sources, 1901 acres,
making a total of S26,639 acres.
The report shows that the amount
collected for trespass upon agricultural
college, primary school tax, home
stead and state tax lands for the year
ending June 80. 1910, was $3,S58.71
and the receipts of the office $685.
1877 32. From the 62.310 acres of land
returned to the state for non-payment
of taxes the state has realized $685.
1892, or an average of S1.75 per
acre. Most of this land formerly sold
at the rate of $1.25 per. with standing
timber upon 1t, and s1.75 is consid-
cred the highest price the state has
ever realized from such a source. Not
alone in the acreage line has the land
department done a thriving business,
as it has disposed of a few city and
village lots. which have netted s4S.-
1863. Actual settlers have made home
stead entry upon 1884 acres and ac-
cording to indications all of this land
will be converted into farms by the
homesteaders.

Lansing. of the existing
laws governing the operations OF the
state board of corrections and chac-
tiles, to make the board more eff
cient force to aid the dependent and
unfortunate, is recommended in the
annual report which the board has
just forwarded to the governor. For
many years the board was sort OF
state sewing circle" which met every
now and then and discussed various
propositions and then adjourned. Oc-
casionally some county with particu-
larly disgraceful Jail or county in
firmary was gently prodded. but there
was never much result.
This year it has been different
Several counties have been prodded
and more radical steps undertaken
Legal proceedings have been institu-
ted against enc county which did not
even maintain a Jail of any charac-
ter. Other evils have been investi'
gated and troubles are ahead for
certain societies or individuals unless
there are reforms brought about
This all came about when Marl T
Murray became secretary of the board
He has inspected every Jail and in
Urinary in the state and made some
of these institutions a second visit
where he wanted to assure himself
that Improvements had been made
which the board advised.
When the board discovered just
how vigorous he was the members sat
up and took notice and there have
been doings ever since. Homes for
orphan children, maternity hospitals
and similar institutions which had
forgotten that the state ever took any
notice of their operations. were sud
denly confronted with a copy of the
statute which required them to keeI
the state sted as to their methods
and cases handled. Other reforms
were instituted and the board mem
bers look back on the years work
with considerable satisfaction. Now
they want tn legislature to increase
the authority over this class of in
stitutions and broaden the scope OF
the work.

Warmers Choice May Not Stand.

Warmers Choice May Not stand.
The appointment of John S. Hag-
gerty of Detroit as member of the
board of control of Jackson prison to
succeed the late Thomas j. Navin,
brings up an interesting legal ques-
ton as to whether the governors ap-
pointee will be able to hold Office
after the first of the year. According
to section POSI- of the compiled laws
of 1897, whenever a vacancy occurs
on the prison board otherwise than
by the expiration of a term, such va
cancy shall be filled by the governor
with the advice of the senate il in
session. If the senate is not in ses-
sion the appointment shall continue
until the next regular session of the
senate.
1t is contended that the statute
means that an appointment to fill
vacancy expires when the senate con-
venes, and IL such is the case Gov
ernor Osborn will be able to name
Haggerty's successor. Others claim
that 1t was the intent Of the law that
an appointee should continue in Of
fee until the senate convened when
the appointment should be confirmed.
Attorney General Kuhn has been
asked for an opinion on this point,
and 1t is expected that the states
legal department will pass on the
proposition.
