TIoN-coMMtTTEE
NAMED.

The Committe of the Grace Evan.
gelical Lutheran Mission met last
evening, and decided to make an effort
to build a church in Fairmont. A

the Council within the next month as
to whether the necessary arrange.
ments can be made to have the church
built.
The building would be located at the
corner of Third street and CASTOR ave
nue., on the South Side. The Council
thinks that the building alone should
cost at least $1,000. 1t Was pointed
out that nothing less than the most
modern building should be thought
of or planned for.
The committee appointed is as fol
lows: Rev. j. j. scherer, chairman;
o. A. Wood and ]. T. Rowland.
Pastor Takes Vacation.
Rev. j. j. scherer pastor of tho

ARIZONA WOOL GROWERS
 ASSOCIATION

Flagstaff, Arizona, April 21st, 1906. Members of the Associa- tion are advised, through the newspapers, that a number of 1 bills providing for the classified tion and leasing. or some form of governmental control, of the grazing lands of the public do- main, are now pending Tn Con- gress and being pressed for pas sage. Among them is one said to have been prepared by the Director of the Geological Survey and having the support of the Secretary of the Interior. 1t is drawn especially to ald, by the income from such lease or graz ing charges, in raising addition al funds for the Reclamation Fund" and provides for the withdrawal, lease and manage ment, to be lett in the hands of the Secretary of the Interior.
 At a recent conference in Wash ington, between members of the Executive Committee of the American National Live Stock Association, and Mir. Pinchot and others of the Department of Agriculture, Mir. Pinchot sub- mitted the rough draft of a pro- posed bill, providing for the gov ernmental control of all grazing lands, from time to time as fast as they may be examined, classi- fled and established as grazing districts, by proclamation of the President. Mir. Pinchot asked the stock men to aid by the sug- gestion of such notifications as would make it most practical and acceptable. It is doubtless the outgrowth of the work of the Special Land Commissioner appointed three years ago by the President, and is in general an extension or modification of the present grazing system ofthe Forest Reserves; except that it gives the Departement of Agri- culture more power in handling the range. It may under this measure, give exclusive permits with authority to fence.
 The document is too long for publication in this bulletin or for a detailed review. The impor- tance to the settlers and stock men of any such radical changes of old established conditions and usages demands serious consider ation and action on the part of all stock men and seems to call for this bulletin. The bill has since been introduced in the Sen- ate Senate Bill 5511) and is now in the hands of the Com. mittee on Public Lands.
 The indications are that it is only question of a very short time when some law for the con. trol of public grazing lands will
