LAND PROBLEM
Up TO SOLONS
Governor Wants Status of
Misunderstanding School
lands Determined.
RESULT OF FRAUD CASES
LEGISLATURE is ASKED TO APP.
POINT A COMMITTEES.

As result of the recent ruling of the
federal court that the state had no right
to select mineral lands as a part of the
school land apportionment of the federal
government, Governor John c. Cutler
asked the legislature yesterday 10 ap-
point joint committee to consider the
position of the state and the government
IN the pending action in order to deter
nine the exact status of the mineral bear
ing school lands of the state
The particular case which brought the
/ mater 10 the governors attention is the
action of the federal authorities in filing
SUIT against Arthur A. Sweet to recover a
LOT which he had paid the state 81 992
rms land was originally secured from
the state In 1904 by George r. Badger
who sold his rights to Sweet Dec % 1905
and the latter, Jan. 4, 1907. paid the
amount due thereon and demanded a til
tie from the governor Because of the
suit filed by the United States, Governor
cutter v as compelled to refuse to sign
the deed and Sweet must now await the
determination of his case by the courts.
The governors suggestion covers a
broad field and the work of the investi-
eating committee will proba bly, take con-
siderable time. The government. it is I'M
derStOOd. intends to bring scores of these
suits and it is likely that the state, il it
is deemed best. Will be required to defend
its right TO the lands in controversy, so
as TO protect patents issued by it for
lands purchased and paid for
The question of whether the board OF
land commissioners has always acted
within the scope of the state and federal
laws in dispOsing Of the land supposed
to be under its control will be one of the
principal matters before the commission.
I'm the suits filed. although the govern
ment does not specifically allege that
fraud entered into the issuing of many
of these patents yet il is strongly init
mated If any facts of Importance along
this line are developed the COMMITTEES
might be called upon to probe the conduct
of the board from the time of it's incep-
ton to the present.
The communication was referred in
both houses to the committee on public
lands and next week concurrent reso-
luton will no doubt be passed authoriz-
ing the appointment of a special commit
tee to take up the problem presented by
the governor.

VICTIM OF ERROR.
Barnett Declares His PoIygamy Bill
Was Butchered.

Representative Barnett of Juab claims
that he is the victim of clerical error
in regard TO his bill wiping pOlygamy
from the statutes and substituting big
amy as the name of the crime instead
In the original draft of his bill, accord
ing to Mr. Barnett, his only object was
10 increase the penalty for fornication and
give justices of the peace original juris-
diction in such cases. After he drew his
bill, IL suggested 10 him that he
incorporate the suggestion OF the gov
ernor regarding the substitution of big
amy for "pOlygamy" in the statutes and
he consented to place IL in his bill.
BY clerical error, he claims, the
bill was made to include an amendment
TO Section 240e, defining the offense Of
unlawful cOhabitatiOn when ne intended
10 refer to Sections 240S 2412 and 2416 OF
the revised statutes
Mr.. Barnett insisted that it was far
from his intention to offer any measure
that would wipe out the provision re-
garding unlawful cohabitation and that
he had upon discovering the error. cor

length of sixteen or eighteen inches,
