Expect to
Lease Land

cisco, a man of practical expert
G ce IN wheat raising en- a larg {
scale, arrived in Roman Sunday
last and expects to engage in the
wheat growing business exten.
sively in this valley.
Mr.. T ierce visited the Mission
valley last fall and was so i'm.
pressed with the possibilities OF
the country that he Immediately
made arrangements to return and
become one of those who will un.
questionably make money out of
the rich soil to be found here. He
spent the winter in San Francisco
and returned prepared to engage
in the wheat business with a vim.
In conversation with Mr..
Pierce it was learned that others
are becoming interested in the
wheat growing industry of this
vally and the coming summer will
find quite a number seeking lands
here. To him, like many others,
it seems strange that so much of
the Indian lands are not leased at
the present time, and with some
of the restrictions thrown around
this matter of making leases re-
moved, it would not be very long
before it would all be in cultiva-
tion and both the allottee and
renter receiving a handsome in
come from the land.
While on this subject the Pio-
neer will again say that only a
possible 10 Der cent. of the In
dian land on the reservation is
under lease at the present time.
Just why this condition exists is
not easy osay. Those who have
leased in the past have harvested
good crops and made money in
ordinary years. This being true,
it offers inducement to others and
they are coming every day.
Another feature which is an
impol tant one, is that in a few
years the lands become so valua-
BILE that the Indian receives an in
creased rental over the first lease
period. Leasing also adds new
people and many of them to the
community, and they all buy of
the local merchant and furnish
employment to labor, and every
one receives a share Of the har-
vest money. That is what builds
up a country and makes it posi-
bic to erect school houses and
make other public improvements,
and leasing should be encouraged
by every citizen who has the best
interests of the country at heart.
With our lands leased and till
ed, prosperity is sure to dwell
permanently in the Mission val
ley.

Robbing Peter
to Pay Paul

Senator DOMAINS bill entitled
AN act changing and defnir 6
the bounda; les { f Sanders county,
and changing the boundaries Ct
Misscula county to confol m there
to-" is of interest to the residents
cf the section of country around
Dixon particularly ard to the
people Of the Mission valley in
general. By he change propos-
ed in the bill quite a slice of
ccuntry nor tn and east of Dixon
will be taken from Missoula
county and added to Sanders.
The present county line runs
MOI tn and south about one mile
ca t of Dixon. This line will be
moved some five miles further
east, or within about one mile of
Ravalli. More Pa ticular]y des-
cribed, the eastern boundary line
Of Sanders county will lie the
range line between ranges twenty
and twenty one, following that
line north to the township line
between townships eighteen and
nineteen north, thence west on
the township line to the center
of the main chanrel Of the Flat
head or Pend d'Oreille river.
The change will take from school
district No 2S about five miles
of the main line Of the N. P.
railroad, from which the district
derives considerable revenue.
Arlee, Ravalli, St. Ignatius, Ro-
nan, Moiese and the entire school
district will be interested in the
change to this extent, ard will
hardly approve the contemplated
change. The bill also provides
for changes in the boundary line
between the cwo counties 'Vn the
southern line Of Sanders and the
northern line of Missoula at diff
ferent points from the southeast
corner of Sanders county to the
Idaho state line. In these
changes the Mission valley people
have no interest, but in the
change in the neighEo. hood Ct
Dixon it is different. Just what
is back of the desire for the
change is of course not stated,
but if it is being done merely for
the purpose Of Letter defining
the boundary lines it would seem
more practicable to follow the
main channel of the Tlathead
river to its intersection with the
range line between ranges twenty
one and twenty two, thence
south to the present southern
boundary of the county of San
ders. This would leave Dixon
and all that portion of Sanders
county lying east of the Flathead
river in Missoula county, where
it properly belongs. Attention
is called to this bill and it's pro-
visions only for the purpose Of
giving those interested an oppor-
tunity to be heard. The change,
if made, will deprive school dis
trict No. % of several thousand
dollars worth of taxable property
which the district can i'll afford to
lose at this time. The bill looks
very innocent, but it will be the
course of wisdom to scrutinize
and analize it closely.

The trend OF the fashion shows
that for the coming spring season, at
least, the tendency will be toward con-
borvafism. The clothes OF the best
1Iressed men, those who study the

couspicuous for the absence of fancy
lr1lls of any kind. and the elegance
~ simplicity will be studied. There
