of Several Acts
Now On.

veloped that the fight over the prOpO-
sition to commit the National Irriga
ton congress in favor of a repeal of
several of the existing land laws, in
Guiding the desert land act, the tim
ber and stone act and the commuta-
tiOn clause of the homestead act. will
be a very close one. Champions both
for and against such action were heard
at this session of the congress, George
ii. Maxwell. of the executive commit
tee of the National Irrigation associa
ton, and Senator Paris Gibson, of
Montana. favoring such action. while
Representative MondelI, in long
speech. took strong grounds against
such repeal.
Promises To BE a Hard Fight.
Both the repeal resolutions intro
duced by Maxwell and the speeches of
Senator Gibson and Representative
MOndell were much applauded. and it
was evident from the feeling displayed
til; if the congress does recommend
the repeal of these lawS-and it is the
general belief that the committee on
resolutions will report in favor of such
resOlutiOns-it will only be after very
hard fight. Interest in the possible ac-
tiOn of the congress on this point, in
fact, overshadows everything else that
has come before it.
Will Not Consolidate.
During the session action on the
long-cOnsidered consolidation with the

up. The committee appointed last year
