RESOLUTIONS BY
CATTLE GROWERS
ON LAND LEASING
Protest Entered Against the
Rules and Regulations
Previously Adopted by
State Land Board.

The resolution presented b. the cat
tie growers in attendance at the con-
ference with the state land board Sat-
urday when the rules of the board
were taken up for consideration, set
forth the attitude of the men engaged
in this important industry. They are
as follows:
Resolution Presented.
1--WE, the representatives of the vari-
Gus cattle and horse growers assccia-
tions Of tho state of Idaho, in conven-
ton assembled, emphatically protest
against the enforcement of the rules
and regulations heretofore adopted by
the state land board in reference to the
leasing of state lands for grazing lur-
poses, and in support of our protest
present the following propositions
"First-That the leaEing of state
lands to sheep interests where such
/ lands lie within two miles of the in
habited dwellings OF settlers, or where
such lands are portion Of established
cattle ranges in usual and customary
use as such. l. in violation of the letter
and spirit bot. of the statute common
ly known as the two mile limit law and
of section 6S72 of the revised codes,
commonly known as the priority right
law.
"Second-That the leasing of such
land under the above condition is OPP
posed to sound public policy in that 1T
prevents and obstructs the settlement
of the state and the ..pbuilding Of
homes.
"Third-That many small farmers in
all parts of the state, owing to the
scarcity of markets for general farm
produce, depend upon the few cattle
which they can raise for money with
which to make payment upon their and
and to provide for the current necessi-
ties of life.
"Fourth-That cattle and horse grow
ers be given the preference in leasing
state lands for grazing purposes that
come under the provision of the two
mile limit law and the provisions Of
section 6S72, the prior. ! of right law
at price to be designated by the state
land board
eFifth-We protest against the action
of the state land commissioner in ia
voring men engaged in the sheep in
dustry to the injury of the cattle AND
horse owner and home builder of the
state in the matter of leasing state
lands.
"Sixth-That the amounts which may
b. realized through carrying out the
rules and regulations of the land board
are of less importance to the people o.
the state than would be the adoption
of a policy which would foster the
growth and development of the state
and the increase Of its population ant
wealth through extended settlement!
and the building of homes. and WI
earnestly urge that these latter con,
siderations should have greater weigh
with the board than considerations O
greater or less amount Of money t.
be secured through the adoption Of
system OF leasing that would by its OF,
Grafton destroy the small stock grower
homesteader and rancher"

Ottawa, Ont. Feb. 15.-The annual
budget statement, outlining new taxa
ton and war appropriation schemes of
the government for the coming year,
will be made in the house of commons
this afternoon by Sir Thomas White,
finance minister. While the series of
taxation innovations introduced last
year by Sir Thomas and the general
revenue have exceeded anticipations
and while Canada now has a large
trade balance in her favor, the con-
stantly increasing number of soldiers
being recruited-the establishment
aimed at is 0O0-will necessitate
the raising of more money by new tax
alton, while another war appropra-
ton is expected. Already $4,000, 900
has been borrowed and it is expected
that with the larger army now being
supported sanction will be asked for
much larger sum, something between
s200,O0OOO0 and $250,000,OOO.
