MAY Be SEPTEMBER
Before the Sale Of the Pasture Lands
Takes Place

Lawton Democrat, Major Nc
Knight, register of the local land
Office, is in receipt Of a letter from
one Of the clerks of the land depart
ment at Washington, in answer
to an inquiry Of Major Mcknight
as to when the sale of the lands in
the pasture reserves would be liable
to take place. The letter states
that as General Land Commissioner
Richards is now in Wyoming, and
not knowing just when he viii re-
turn. the sale is liable not to take
place before September.
While this may be little dissa-
pointing to some, yet when one
panses TO consider the matter it is
difficult to see how the the sale
could easily be pulled off before the
first of September. Here it is,
right at the FIRST Of July, and by
the time plans can be perfected,
and due notice given by the presi-
dents proclamation, il will take
just about that much time.

BY THE PRESIDENT-THE MEA-
SURE WILL BECOME A LAW
IN SIXTY DAYS
THE WORK OF THE CONGRESS-
Has been Marked BY Many Important
Measures Extending Federal
Regulation

Washington, June, 2e. e.-The
president tonighs at II:I5 signed
the railroad rate bill. He also sign
sd the immigration bill and the
bill for the construction of the lock
canal over the isthmus of Pana-
ma.
The house had amended the
proposition of the senate, making
the rate bill effective sixty days
from June %, 1906. AS the rate
bill passed it became effective sixty
days after approval by the presi-
dent.
Washington, d. c., jane 2g.--
Important measures extending fed
eral regulation and control have
been enacted at the first session of
the ffty-niuth congress now rapid
ly drawing to a close. The rail-
road rate bill and the meat in
spection bill will soon become laws,
anc before adjournment both
houses of congress will have passed
pure food bills which though dis
similar in terms, are based on the
same principle of federal control.
1t is the present intention to try
and adjust these differences before
adjournment. There has been no
division in party lines in effecting
the above results, the difference be-
ing only as to ways and means,
rather than as to policy.
Besides branching off into this
new field of legislative endeavor,
the present session Of congress has
made itself important in other
ways. 1t has added one and per-
haps two new states to the union,
by so doing disposing OF four ter
ritories.
By a different turn of legi islative
points of view, the questions which
have preplexed congress for some
time regarding the Panama canal
has been settled. The president
may dig lock canal as fast as he
pleases. A joint resolution was
greed to requiring canal suppl es
to be of American manufact ure.

GOOD MARKET FOR LABOR.

The Lewiston country is good mar
ket for labor. All Contractors are
complaining about the scarcity of men
for the work they have on hand and
the outlook is that the demand will in :
crease as the spring opens and all the
various enterprises get fairly under
way. The work in hand calls for a
large number of men rather than for
skilled labor though proportionate
shore of that always attends the de-
velopment Of any great undertaking.
The digging of bitches and the build
ing of railroads and bridges and Of con-
Quits and fumes calls for many men,
and the weekly pay rolls in the several
construction camps in the Clearwater
country will turn loose a large supply
Of ready cash that will tend to make
good times for the whole community
for the coming season.
At the least estimate there will be
need for $500 laborers in the Clear
water country during the coming sum-
mer to carry on the work now under
contract. What this will mean to the
country in the way Of increased pay
roll and ready money for stimulating
all lines of trade is easily estimated
