says the Belle Fourche Post.
A bitter fight was anticipated by
the ten representatives west .#of the
Missouri river, as Eastman had been
:industriously distributing circulars
urging the members to support
House Bill No. 10, which provided
that school and endowment lands,
wherever located, and whether
fenced or not fenced, must be leased
before stock shall be allowed to
Craze thereon"
/ Had the measure been adopted ii
would have proven a death blow to
the cattle interests. of this section
of the country. The committee on
Judiciary, however, reported ad.
yersely on the bill and future con.
sideration Of the same has been in,
definitely post poned which practic.
l5ally means that Eastman's pet bill
