FEATURES
P|TTMAN LAND BILL
How Big Revenue to State Can
Be Obtained - Lands Now Oc-
cupied Free Can Be Leased and
Income Derived TherefrOm

section within twenty miles o. the
Central Pacific railroad
Seconds: The Forest Service re-
ceives an average OF $4,000 annually
for grazing fees from cattlemen using
portions Of the 5,5OOO0O acres Of for
est reserves i'll Nevada. The state
receives 25 per cent of this amount.
the states proportion averaging ap-
proxi.nately $4,000 annually. But
most OF these grazing fees are col
lected in the Forest Reserves in the
northern half OF Nevada and not over
the whole 5,5OO,0OO acres.
Now by carefully selecting the L.
10000 acres Of non mineral land
granted the state, practically all OF
the summer ranges treasured by the
cattlemen, who now use them free,
could be made sub ject to lease by the
state on the same terms as the South
ern Pacific and United States Forest
Reserve offer them to cattlemen. and
it is not unreasonable to say that
S25O.0OO could be secured annually in
this way from grazing fees.
Remember, this is all free range
now to cattlemen. They do not want
to possess the land or they would
have bought up the 5,50O,0OO acres Of
Southern Pacific lands long ago. They
want grazing rights. and want them
Tree, hence their support OF Platt' 5
campaign against any grant of land to
the state.
Alter leasing portion of these
lands there would still be LETT for set
element under present homestead
laws or under the provisions of Sen
1tor pittlnan's companion measures
a large part OF 'bottom." or so-called
homestead lands. The legislature
>ould easily pass measures requiring
the selection OF only the plateau or
grazing lands.
That is then the whc1e question
shall Nevada accept this tender Of l.
100000 acres, and what disposition
shall be made OF it ii accepted. The
issue is not whether the cattlemer
want land-we know they don't, 10.

Ray McCleary
Dies of Wounds

Word was received last night that
Raymond MrClcary. the young boy
who shot himself i'll his room at the
Arlington hotel on Wednesda morn
ing. had died in Reno, where he was
taken the night before. Ills death
reveals very pathetic side OF his
lie. Left an orphan, he was placed
in the Orphans Home in Carson and
remained there until few months
ago, when he lett there to take a po-
sitior at the Arlington hotel.
No one suspected that the boy was
lonesome or had melancholy moods,
as he always appeared cheerful when
around the hotel, but such was the
case, for when questioned after shoot
ing himself, he said he was going to
die, that he was lonesome, had no
friends, and no one to talk to or ad-
wise with and that he did not care to
live
McCleary was a young man OF
splendid habits and liked by all and
his unfortunate ending is regretted
by everyone who knew him.
No word has been received as 70
when the funeral will take place OF
where. but presumably in Reno
where an aunt an uncle reside.

Want Protective
Tariff On Babes

RENO. Oct. 27-"Western Women
Want Wilson" is probably the slogan
that will be adopted by the Demo-
cratic women Of Washoe county who
are to march in the old-fas sfioned par
ade and rally to be held i'll this city
Saturday night. The sudden activity
of the Democrats women apparently
'olnes as an impassioned 'outburst of
Indignation against the tactics that
have been employed by the Woman's S
party and will uestionably result
III a big turnout on the part OF the
female contingent, many Of whom are
at work signing up those who will
esree to be present at the rally
The discussion Of the slogan to be
adopted and the banners to be car
RED came up at a meeting OF the
women held at the Democratic COun-
ty headquarters Tuesday night
Not Wall Street, but Wilson,, was
one suggestion that met with much
favor, to be emblazoned in large let
ters on a banner to be carried by the
Wilson-Pitt1na Wcman's club.
Other suggestions that were heard
we're: "AIothcrs, wives and sweet
hearts vote for the protective tariff
on husbands, sons and lovers" "NOte
for the protective tariff on babies in
stead of buttons.'
"Whiskers won't win, we want VIII
SON" was rejected because as one
woman remarked plairtively, 'Let:
net say anything about whislers.'
"'The labor of human being is no
commodity or article Of commerce,

that was made it is probable that in

Taxpayer" published in the Carson
City News OF October 2oth, suggests
that the so-called Pittman bill grant
ing 7OOO.0OO acres OF non-mineral
land to the state OF Nevada is an is
-~ue in the senatorial campaign in this
state.
The above mentioned measure has
passed the senate without dissent
ing voice. and is i'll a fair way to pass
the house of representatives unless
COngre ssman Roberts swallows his
approval of it before the house COM
mittee. No matter who is elected to
the senate, nothing can be done there
about the bill. AS far as the senate
is concerned the Pittman land gran;
IS a closed book.
However, ii the inquiri1lg taxpayer
or anyone else questions MIR. Pitt
mans sincerity i'll protecting the
states interests in land matters, let
him remember that the original bill
introduced in the senate was identi-
cal with the 100000 atre grant to
Nevada OF htty years ago with this
exception-that no person can buy
more than $40 acres OF the 7.WOOo
acre grant There was no limit to
the amount one person could secure
OF the previous grant When the Pitt
man measure was btiorc the senate
Tor final passage, the auction clause
and other amendments were offered
and insisted upon. The record shows
that the grant was secured upon the
BEST POSSIBLE TERMS. and that
Nevada can never expect a grant
without the same auction clause that
has been in every land grant bill for
iortv years. There is no doubt OF
Senator Pittmans desire to safe
guard Nevada's interests i'll every
way and provide for the states de
velopment. not only through the land
grant, but through the companion
measures which are admirably calcu
lated to stimulate settlement Of GER
tain portions OF Nevada.
The issue on the 100000 acre
Of it. II we are to judge by concur
rent resolutions Of two state lcgisla-
lures, the 1907 message to the legis
| iature of Nevada, and the comment OF
the Nevada press (even the Gazette
and Journal Of eight months ago. the
| people OF the state favor a Federal
within the states borders. This
| grant can only be secured with the
auction clause in it. 1t is reasonble
to suppose then that the majority
would favor the acceptance OF this
Grant with a proviso that the land
could only be sold by auction
But why sell it? If the state ca,
secure an income for school purpose
from the grant by leasing it, why nee,
il be sold? There is nothing in tho
grant requiring that it be sold. |
