The silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1909-1925, 1916-10-07

Much has been said and written
for and against the Pittman land bill.
which proposes to grant 1000, 900
acres Of federal lands to be used for
the benefit of the Nevada schools.
At this time it may be pertinent to
ask why this solicitude over the
schools? Nevada has a very complete
system of education, which is being
maintained by taxation, without OBJ
lection from men who are footing the
bills.
Why not let well enough alone?
The old warning, Beware of
Greeks bearing gifts" may apply in
this case. While the friends of edu-
cation in the state may naturally be
expected to favor the passage of the
bill, they should look over its pro-
visions carefully to see if the schools
of the state will receive practical and
lasting benefits should it be enacted.
Nevada is practically the only state
in the Union where there remains any
considerable amount of public lands
open to entry. Owing to their arid
character they are not at present
available to the ordinary homeseeker
for agricultural purposes. but a
only be made productive by the ex-
penditure of immense sums of money
in developing water. This is a fed
eral function. and should the land re-
vert to the state the government at
once loses all interest and could not
be looked to for the expenditure of
a dollar for irrigation projects.
In years gone by, when land was
plentiful, the government was prodi-
gal in its requests. In looking back
it can be seen where the lands donat-
ed to the different states for specific
purposes were dissipated. One of the
most striking examples of this fact
Is in Oregon. Years g the govern
ment donated an empire to assist the
state in building good roads. A strip
several miles wide, running from Eu-
gene to the eastern boundary of the
state, was given to a corporation to
build a wagon road through the same
territory. Although the road was
neve built. the land was turned over
to the corporation. which decided 1t
to innocent purchasers" and it
eventually fell into the hands of an
English syndicate. which has for
years been disposing OF 1t to settlers
at high prices.
