Circulating q Petition.

Thomas Nelson OF Stone House was
circulating a petition among our citizens
Tuesday getting sigoers against the pro-
posed Grazing Land Leasing bill, which
petition will be forwarded to our Senators
and Representative in Congress.
We are OF the opinion taat this bill
should be fought OIL every point by the
stock-gro@ers and ranchers, and public
in general. II it should happen to be-
come a law, it woold tie up all the lands
in the States and Territor ies mentioned
in the bill, for the next generation. II
simply means that a few big combines in
each State will control all the public
range, freezing out the small holders
and making a vast cattle range. There
would be no room for homeseekers or
small ranchers. This bill ought to be
opposed by every citizen having the best
interest OF the State at heart.
