MANY ACRES TO

Hundreds of thousands of fertile

rich agricultural area when the new
drainage bill becomes a law aud opera
tions arc begun under its provisions.
The drainage bill is with the COVER.

Of Sewer in the house. 1t provides
that drainage districts may be or
ganizcd In the various counties TO in
clude the land sought to be reclaimed

ers are to have direction of the work
through boards OF supervisors. The
districts are TO be organized On poti-
tion,
The districts are given authority TO
issue bonds, nue. alter the manner in
which irrigation districts now exercise
that right.
Six years ago a drainage law was
passed by both houses and signed by
the governor. On test in the supreme
court the law was overturned on con.
stitutiOnal grounds. The Christensen
bill was drawn BY one of Utah S most
capable attorneys. Mathonihah Thomas,
and is said TO be constitution proof. -
III meets every objection raised against
the former law. aud certainly is much
more definite act.
1t is said that thousands Of acres
Of land lying between Salt Lake City
aud the Great Salt lake will be re-
claimed under the drainage law. The
dredging of the surplus canal along the
Jordan river, which takes care Of the
flood waters in the spring, has demon
strated the fact that the land through
which it passes, when properly drained,
is among the best TO be found. AS
there are thousands of acres of this

the lake, il is easy to understand that
the drainage act will have a highly
beneficial effect in the immediate Vi
cinity of Salt Lake.

Large delegations came from Davis
county towns to urge the passage or
the bill or 90 oppose 1t. Davis county
is particularly interested because Of the
fact that the Lagoon racetracE IS SIT
uated in that county.
The bill is attacked by the poolroon
men on the ground that its provisions
are iu coutravcntion OF the interstate
commerce law In that It prohibits the
receipt of information on horse races
run al tracks outside the state, Also
the claim is set up that the law does not
repeal an ordinance passed by the coun-
ty commissioners licensing poolrooms.
This contention rs not given serious con-
slderation, but the former argument is
regarded as possible lever With which
TO overturu the law
ConcideDt with the introduction IN
thc house of the Mabev bill, an identi'
cal bill was introduced in the senate
bv Thornley,, senator from Davis county.
That bill passed the senate and was
later killed in the house for the reason
that it duplicated the Mabey bill. The
Msbcv bill passed both houses with lit
tie or no opposition.
By the terms Of the act. any per
son who conducts boolImakIng bust
ness anywhere in the state is made
guilty of felony. Punishment is pro-
vjded by fine Of not more than $4,000
or imprisonment in the state s prison
for one year, or both. It's provisions in
cludc poolselling or mutue machines or
pools at the state or other fairs, as
we'll as in poolrooms or at racetracks
run as racetracks only. The bill Is a
copy of the New York law. where; ac-
cordinR TO some. poolrooms have been
rut out of business, and where, accord
Ing to others. poolrooms flourish.
Later the anti-betting feature OF the
