TO CLEARLIST
SCHOOL LANDS
State Officials 60 to Wash
ington to Get Release Of
400, 900 Acres.

Governor Hawley, Attorney Gen
eral McDougan and Land Agent
Day will take hike to the ma
tional capital this week to inter
view the land commissioner and
urge upon that department the
claims of the state of Idaho to
several hundred acres of lands
through past negotiations of the
state with the national govern
ment, and to insist upon the
prompt clearlisting of the same.
State Auditor Stephen d. Tays
ior, who has taken great interest
and used every effort to give to
the state its right to these lands,
believing that Idaho will be great
ly benefited and this state can
not afford to allow anything to
stand in the way of procuring
what properly belongs to it for
the protection of not only its
lands, but it's state institutions
and its revenue, was queried with
reference to the trip of the rep
resentatives of the board to Wash
ington and said:
1.-THE report is correct that til
state land board will send repre-
sentatives to Washington to look
after the states interest in con-
nection with Idaho's land grants.
Governor Hawley, Attorney Gen
eral McDougall, and State Land
Commissioner Day will be the Of
ficers designated, and they will
probably leave next week. The
public land grants of the state of
Idaho, when they are filed by Sc
lection, will amount to 3,748,000
acres, and in my estimation are
conservatively worth $4,000, 900,
and if properly managed will in
time produce principal for our
permanent endowment funds
amounting to this sum, and make
our public institutions and com
mon schools nearly, if not, self
sustaining. The management Of
snch a vast estate requires not
only sound policies, but watchful
care in order to avoid losses.
Pending Before Department.
"There is now pending in the
departments at Washington land
selections for the state of Idaho
to the amount of 100000 acres to
be clearlisted. During the past
three years the state has receiv-
d but two clearlists, and these
or only two small areas. Some
# these selections have been
lending for five years. In the
neantime the state is deprived
of any revenue that it might
obtain by leasing these lands for
farming or grazing purposes, or
from sales which would bring
home builders and cause the lands
to become taxable.
"The opportunity to select val
liable lands to complete our land
The Grangeville globe. [volume] (Grangeville, Idaho) 1907-1922, 1912-04-18

grams Is diminishing edcn year.
In fact such an opportunity may
be said to have vanished already.
If the government should refuse
to finally clearlist any of the
states present selections, the loss
would be irreparable. Hence the
necessity of pushing our claims
at Washington with the utmost
vigor and further delay upon the
part Of the land board would be
criminal negligence.
Timber Lands Tied Up.
Sin addition to the 100000
acres above referred to, held up
for clearlisting, there Is another
100000 acres tied up in forest
reserves. These lands constitute
some Of the most valuable timber
lands in the Clearwater and Boise
basins. The present state land
board entered into an agreement
with the federal government last
summer to have this land relin-
pushed from the forest reserve.
These were lands for which the
state applied for surveys which
gave the state a preference right
of selection under the law of 1894
Before the surveys were approx
ed the Pinchot administration
threw the lands into forest re-
serve and disputed the right of
the state to make selections.
Under the law the government
could have held these lands, and
a recent decision affecting some
10000 acres in Boise county con-
firms this fact. The present
state land board, more than a
year ago, took our claims direct
to President Taft with the result
that the president agreed to is
sue an amended proclamation re-
leasing these lands to the state
of Idaho, and directing the secre-
tary of the interior and the chief
forester to arrange details with
that object in view. Chief for
ester Potter visited Idaho last
summer in accordance with this
arrangement, met with the land
board, and the details were all
arranged, but the amended pro-
tlamation has not yet been is
sued, and is held up for reasons
not at present understood by the
land board, but probably due to
some red tape of some of the de-
partments. 1t is of the utmost
Importance that this = agreement
should be closed up during the
present year while both the state
and federal governments are in
accord upon the subject. The
lands involved are easily worth
100000 and the state cannot
afford to take any chances and
business prudence dictates that
further delay should be avoided.
Scrip Lands Need Attention.
Another matter that requires
the attention of the state author
tiles at Washington is in connec-
ton with the large area of scrip
selection in north Idaho. 1t APP
pears that the Northern Pacific
Railway company has acquired
claim to a large acreage of land
in north Idaho by reason of fill
ing scrip upon the land. 1t filed
this scrip years ago, but patent
has never been issued, and con-
sequently their land is avoiding
taxation. These lands should
help bear the burden of taxation
in the counties where located in
