Poles in Lithuania are fighting for the preservation of an education in Polish language and some other things. At the same time, Lithuanians are terribly aware of being "polonised", so they don't allow them for anything connected with polish language, culture etc.
I'm not so much into this conflict, maybe someone more knowledgeable can write more about that.

Because Poles are still a huge minority there.
Anyway, Lithuanian revival has been built upon denying any Polish influence on the country (and the influence was once immense) - that's why they even accepted Czech orthography and not Polish one to write their language (that's why they don't have a 'w' letter but 'v' instead and some other Czech features) - simply speakings Lithuanian intellectual elites since the time of their revival were anti Polish - they feared Polish culture would completely assimilate Lithuanians (political Lithuanian elites had been voluntarily polonised before in a long process) and that's why Lithuanians dislike Poles because of that.

Well, to me it does not sound that illogical, I mean the purpose of claim. I do not know why the number of Poles in Wilno dramatically decreased.
Thanks for informing about linguistic issues BTW, I just thought that Poles would view South Lithuania, especially Vilnius as their lost land.
