declared the eight-hour law,
passed by the last Legisla ture,
unconstitutional. He declared
thus, it is understood, because of
the omission in the law of the
words. wherein the life, health
OF limb is jeopardized," also on
the ground that the Constitu-
ton of this State provides that
no bill passed by a Legislature
covering two separate measures
can be operative The new law
does this when it fails to make
an eight-hour day for miners
separately from the same length
of day of mill-men and reduction
employees In all probability the
unions of the State will carry
the case to the supreme Court,
but it is almost a sure shot that
the Supreme Court will sustain
the decision of the lower Court
In fact, during the last session of
the Legislature it was rumored
that the measure was so drawn
that it would be found uncon-
stitutional if tested, and the
proof that this was so is Just
being worked out. Those who
passed the eight-hour law did
not want it to do what it was
purported it would do. This is
regular pinchback legislation,
but little else could be expected.

AT THE next session of Con

AT THE next session of Con
gress an important measure to
the West will come up, and that
will be the effort to repeal the
timber and stone act. The bill
for the repeal of this act has
been favorably reported by the
Committee on Public Lands of
the Senate, but the fight prom
Uses to be one of the big fights OF
the next session. The measure
is in no way a party one, but 1T
is said that the Western States
are not a unit for the repeal, as
they should be The mining
States are all right, and in the
agricultural sections the people
should also be a unit on the
ques tion. What the West wants
is actual bona fide home-seekers
and settlers The party who
takes up land for its timber or
stone is rarely an actual settler.
The timber and stone act allows
of land being taken up and held
for speculative purposes. The
States of the West must have
some reason for being opposed
in any way to the repeal of the
act, and the reason may be sur
missed to be that after the great
irrigation projects now under
Roadway for the benefit of the
arid regions are completed it will
be found that much valuable
agricultural land is being held
by large holders under the tim
Der and stone act. The law
should be repealed by all means.
