RANGE CATTLE AND LAND
LEASING.
It in unite evident from th- follow
ing fnni tlu' Oreoiiian That that
paper ioef not favor a land lenninir
hill. It ilix's not seem im-w thutCon
urest will imoB any kind of a bill that
will allow the Wjiatock man to gob
ble up tlu rang'- from tin- small
Mtockninn.
The Orepotiinn nays:
Itiin;iv rattle interests ;.re contin
ii.illy crying for ineiinuren that will
preserve tlieir luin im-sH. Free use of
ttie Government domain ha leen
holdly clenuuuleil as u rirlit. and
when those first established in any
region have felt eompetition they
have frequently not hesitated to
fence public land and by might take
advantages that were not theirs bj
right. Now that this sixt-ies of
usurpatiau will not longer lie toler
ated, there is a desK?rate effort to
get sanction of law for the practice.
1 1 is now to le called land leasing.
The stockmen are striving to get In
this manner the control of vast
areas, under conditions that will
enable them to use the land without
limit and at a much less cost than
would Is? involved in Its ownership.
Livestock interests of this country
are large and are entitled to consider
ation. But the general public also
Il ia interest that are quite aa Im
portant to protect. The whole
theory of the stockmen's contention
is that the grazing country of the
great West is fit only for the use
now made of it. Granting that as
uuuiption, their reasoning lias merit,
"out that is not a sound basis. It
cannot Ite assumed that the best pos
sible use is now made of the soil of
Oregon or Montana, or even of Ne
braska. Wide stretches now given
over to range stuck will some day

will have more livestock thun are
supported then-, and in addition all
the products and activities of gener
al agriculttre.
Kffurts toward land leasing are
not directed to the development of a
new country. They rather tend to
arrest Industrial development by
making the conditions unattractive
to the settler uiid holding the land
To uses that are rougti and waste
ful. We shovld have irrigation to
reclaim the Iuttd and settlers to oc
cupy it. Then there would Is- no
trouble about the lMjef supply. Hut
If the ranges ar- tied up with leases
to cattlemen, r will lie a long time
before their iu,M is shaken off ugain.
The livestock industry should not
ask the Government to endow It at
so heavy an expense to the general
public.

the work Oregon had reasons to ex

with his stoiig hold upon his col

successor will find It. Mr. Tongue
earned his advancement In the house

Myra White Is known as the queen
of the gypsies. She lives at Terre
Haute. Ind., but with the opening of
the spring memlKrs of the party are
scurrying about the towns picking
up nickles and dimes for fortunes.
The queen Is not a fortune teller, but
clings to the dross of the gyisy. She
is a woman of education and while
she makes her home in the wagon
during the summer months, the lit
tle room assigned to her is made at
tractive by books and pictures.
When the summer months are ended
she returns to her home and spends
the winter In Terre Haute.

spring was probably what did It.
The people don't like to see one man

ISishop Scannell of Omaha deplores
the tendency of the times which
places women in business instead of

said in an address to young women

such education would lf a decline,
