the actual settlers on the school land under the projects will the solution be reached.
 According to no less an authority than Senator Willis of Navajo there is almost the same difficulty under the irrigation projects, private though they be. in other portions of the state There are acres and acres of school land un- Ger these projects which according to the Navajo senator cannot be improved and will not be taken up because of the lack of the probability of the title to them ever being in the actual settler of the land.
 Whatever the present conditions, and the final outcome there is a merry fight ahead, for Graham of Cochise in the house has introduced his no sell school land amendment to the constitution and will fight for it as hard as he knows how.
 An echo of the land fight with a de- humorous twinge to the debate occurred in the senate yesterday after noon when the final vote on the Car gie desert laboratory bill came up. w OOd or 4hdrlcOpd, dlWdSS dllNe IO q bit of fun. refused to vote on the amended bill until all the others had cast their votes. The bill went through with scarcely bit of division and then Wood. C. B. arose to explain his vote.
 He thanked the senate for their charge of front on the bill and espec- tally went on to thank the senators who. having been opposed to the bill in the first instance had gradually veered around under the pressure of all being anxious to help the Carnegie laboratory, until the bill into which many of them had attempt ed to tie the land policy of the state could be passed by their votes.
 Immediately there was a small fuss. All these men knowing themselves who
