tee appointed by the National Livestock

afternoon. Colorado, Oklahoma, Kansas,
California, Montana. Wyoming, Idaho,
Arizona and New Mexico We're represent
| ed at the meeting, members from other
states being unable to be present. After
| much discussion, it was the general opin-
ion that on account of the different opin-
ions that prevail in various localities
| throughout the west, a low that would
be acceptable to the stockmen should
contain such provisions that would ena-
BILE them TO adopt it or reject it, accord
| ing to the conditions that existed in each
locality The committee adopted the fol-
| lowing resolutions and adjourned TO meet
in Salt Lake City for further considera-
ton of the measures, next August:
Whereas, 1t is apparent that congress
will await the crystalization of public
sentiment upon some policy protective
of the grazing lands on the public domain
west of the 99th meridian; and,
| Whereas, 1t is the determined purpose
Of those who favor the leasing of the
grazing lands. that any legislation for
! that purpose must reserve and protect all
the rights of the agricultural owner, of
| the homesteader and future agricultural
settler, the mineral prospector and all
stock owners, large and small, now in
actual use of the ranges; and,
Whereas, The ample time to prepare
a bill for such law, furnished by the
waiting attitude of congress, affords the
opportunity for this committee to be in
formed in every element Of the problem
therefore,

coed to gather all information upon the
subject and put the same into bill

pies set forth in the preamble hereto, and

and stockmen ask for the same and
have such a bill ready for presentation
TO congress at the next session, for &C
ton by that body. And be it further
