NATIONAL GUARD BILL.
KILLED IN SECTIONS
Special Order Measure Is De-
feated by Vote of Twenty
to Nineteen.

House bill No. 1o4. by Hines. the last
OF the five national guard measures, was
slaughtered in the house Tuesday. Tho
Dill provided for a military poll tax OF So
year and also provided that the militia
nor had declared a state Of insurrection.
The bill was discussed at some length
and killed In sections. First the section
relating to the poll tax was killed and
then the bill as amended was killed. The
general impression prevailed that the law
as 1t now reads is fair enough to the
guard. in the matter OF calls, to assist
peace officers In maintaining order, and
that it might complicate matters were
II made the duty of the governor to de-
clare a state Of insurrection before the
guard could be called out.
Under the proposed bill, in cases of
instruction, the guard would have been
In supreme control of the situation. and
this was deemed inadvisable. as many In
stances might arise where the peace Of
ficers would be in a better position to
direct the work than the guard officers,
II was contendcd,
The final vote upon which the bill was
killed was as follows:
Yeas = Anderson. Crapo. Dahlqulst,

TO PERMIT THE LEASING
OF MORE STATE LANDS

An act known as house bill No. 1s1,
10 amend section 2349 OF the compiled
laws, relating to the leasing OF state
lands, was introduced in the house Tues
day by Spencer of Rich, The proposed
measure, so far as the amendment Is
concerned reads as follows:
IAN lands Unbiased and unsold shall be
subject TO lease at the actual leasing
value thereof as fixed by the board"
The old law provides; Ian lands ap-
praised and unsold shall be subject 10
lease at an annual rental of not less
than per cent of the appraised value
thereof"
Ii is claimed that the law. as it now
reads. prevents the leasing OF appraised
lands at a reasonable rate. and that the
amendment proposed will throw open to
leasing a large area OF good grazing
land. at a figure that can be paid by
those desiring 10 secure the land Tor
grazing purposes 1t is further claimed
by stockmen that the amendment means
much. not only to them In securing ad
ditionaI grazing area, but that IL means
much to the state in additional revenue.
