area he wanted by hiring ‘’dum
mies” to represent his interests
and “hold down locations for him.
The only claim made for the
proposed lease system is that it
would conserve the native grasses,
but there is no assurance to this
end. Go the other hand, it is cer
tain that it would postpone the
settlement of the range country;
that it would immediately injure
'.lie range industry; that it would
operate for the advantage of the
richer as against the poorer stock-
men; that it would tend to mono
polization of the land. These are
reasons enough why the thing
should not be done.— Oregonian.
Just as it was believed that the
light against the proposal to lease
the range lands of the country
had been won, news comes from
Washington that new effort is be-
i.ig made in behalf of that project.
Certain large herdowners in the
Southwest, who operate upon the
open ranges, are back oi this new
movement. They see clearly
that unless, through the lease
ayatem or some other device, a I
fresh hold can be got upon the
ranges, their monopoly is doomed.

No demand that he must vote
The objections to leasing the
