LAW IS
SENT TO THE
GOVERNOR
IN EFFECT SAVE WHERE
HERD LAW OPERATES
Boundaries Changed Between
Lincoln and Socofro Coun-
tieS;Another Effort to Get
Local Option Bill up Fails,
Morning Journal Bureau,
The Palace Hotel.
Il AIan---Ia &


The legislature at the beginning Of
the session was confronted with a
strong demand on the one hand for
a herd law which would require cat
tie and sheep owners to prevent their
herds fom tresspassing on unfcnccd
farms, ana on the other hand with
an equally urgent demand for a fence
law which would require the farm
ers to fence their farms.
The legislature has taken a very
interesting course and has passed laws
covering both demands.
Early in the session All a1eechem,
of Quay county introduced bill
which was duplicated by MI Baker
in the house, providing for local OPP
tion upon a herd law in several Of
the eastern counties including Union,
Quay Guadalupe and parts of Roosc-
welt and Curry counties. The bill pro-
vded the herd law and also that the
people of these districts should have
the option. at an election, to deter
mine whether or not the law should
become effective.
The law sent TO the governor to-
day requires that in all those districts
of New Mexico wherein the local op-
tion herd law is not put into effect
~ Tiifil ~ iiflufifW ny id W illdl an
gardens and farms be fenced proper
Isl with a lawful fence against the
trospass of live stock Whether or
not this viii solve the problem Of
conflict between the stock men ana
Che homcstcadors remains to he seen.
Wherever the herd law is not to op-
crate the fence law is in force.
The council also passed this morn
ing bill by MI Hewitt providing
for certain changes In the boundary
line between SocorrO and Lincoln
counties. Under this bill .mcotn coun-
Is takes small strip Of territory OFF
the eastern portion of SOcorro county.
The bill was an agreed measure be-
tween the two counties.

education this morning presented a

PAYNE TARIFF BILL

Washington, March 16.-The Payne
tariff bin VIII be introduced in the
house early tomorrow In the mean
time it viii be reprinted.
At meeting of the subcommittee
of republican members held today al
ter Speaker Cannon had appointed the
committee on ways and means, sew
eral changes in the bill were attended
to.
The meeting was for the purpose of
securing the approval of the new re-
publican member Cushman, of Wash
ington. who had no knowledge of the
bill's provisions
The appointment Of Representative
Cushman gives the Pacific coast two
members on the republican side of the
ways and means committee and leaves
the Rocky Mountain states without a
representative. While MI Cushman
had little time in which to consider
the bill his attitude may have
changed the bill materially The
changes agreed upon, however are
mainly in phraseology.
Mr. Cushman represents on the
committee. that section of the coun-
try which desires to improve its com
relations with Canada
ON the other hand the lumber in
terests are very large in that section,
and Mr Cushman's attitude may have

AHMORN APPROPRIATION
WILL NOT BIZ APPROVED

In conncction with the general ap-
preparation bdl It has boon Indicated
that Governor Curry VIII refuse to
approve the S3S,00O appropriation for
the completion OF armOrirs AT Las
Vegas. Santa re, Roswell, Las Cruces
and Silver city upon the ground that
the appropriations asked for are too
large and are not needed for the COM
plction OF the buildings The gpvcr-
nor, it is understood. has no objection
to an appropriation bill which viii
provide sufficient funds to complete
the armOrics thoroughly along the
lines of tho plans which have been
adopted by all of The boards. but he
considers the original omnibus bill
far i'm excess Of the needs of the sew
eral buildings The governor has also
indicated that he viii refuse 60 APP
prove the salary bill for assessors and
treasurers making an Increase in the
salaries of those officers Tn" COVER
nor objects to the hll chiefly upon
the ground that It raises the salary
10 four per cent for those counties
which collect under 100000. lie
considers that this increase would be
wrong for those counties ana that
If increases arc to bc made IL would
be better TO make them in the richer
counties which can afford TO pay
them than in the poorer ones.
The result of the strong position
which the governor has taken VIII
probably result In the Abandonment
Of this legislation and leave salaries
for these two offices as they were
fixed by the law Of 1907.
Blls are pouring into the executive
office this morning in punches. The
slowness of legislation In the carly
part Of the session has resulted in
rush of bills at the close and the eA-
ecutive office is the busiest place in

torney general Mr HcNeS. and At
