It's for the kids.  Don't lose sight of the goal.  The Common School Lands are to be managed to provide income for the Common School Fund.  If they are incapable of that,  any decent litigator would prevail in making that happen by court decree.  Sell timber, or logs,  or hunting rights or fern fronds,  what difference does it make?  The State Land Board is culpable and liable if they continue to run deficits in holding that land,  which is the current situation.   It has to be managed to pay its way and fund the CSL or it has to be sold to fund the CSL.  The only outcome that matters is that it fund the CSL.  That is its raison d'être.   The Statehood Act the created Oregon out of the Louisiana Purchase decreed that a certain amount of land would be reserved to the State and to the counties,  to provide seed money to fund public education.  Far thinking legislative action for  pre Civil War Congress.   Local school choice financed by land gifting by US Congress.
