Fair Bill introduced.
Among the bills introduced in the
house today was the measure decided
upon at recent meetings OF commits
sioners and fair secretaries in Helena
1t was brought in by the committee on
fairs and expositions. The bill is
somewhat along the line of the pres
ent law, as regards the appointment of
n fair commission. 1t raises the.
amount which may be appropriated by.
the board OF county commissioners to
$1,000 and provides that tax Of one
mill may be levied for fair purposes.
The change which will be welcomed
by the secretaries and boards of all
small fairs is the one which makes It
possible for the $4,000 appropriation
to be used In defraying a possible
deficit on the entertainment end Of
the fairs. 1t provides that no part Of
the amount shall be appropriated for
horse racing, but this form OF, enter
tainment is not exceedingly popular
since the anti-gambling measure went
into effect. The bin provides for an
appropriation OF $1,000 for defray ing
the cost OF collecting and sending to
Helena Of exhibits for the state fair.
This provision is not changed from
the law as it now stands.
Representative Higgins, Missoula,
today introduced bill which deals
with the blacklisting of employees.
Blacklist is defined as being any un-
Outstanding or agreement between two
or more employers Of labor whereby
the laborer is prevented or prohibited

ION account of his or. her affailiation
! with or membership in any corpora
ton, organization or society because

| by a fine of not less than $1,000 and
prisonment for from one to five years.
| DIR. Ironside, Silver Bow, today in
| troduced his measure which prohibits
any persons appointed by the state
having any other business relations
This bill is designed to cover such
cases as have been reported to me
along this line" said Dr. Ironside
There have been several instances
where dairy inspectors have gone out
to made inspections and while travel
ing on the states time and money have
been making contracts with the various
diaries they were supposed to be in
specting. I believe that this bill will
also put a stop to state officials in :
teresting themselves in private. bust.
ness. Such happenings as the
Northwest Trustee company case will
think. be stopped by this measure"
Hurd. saltwater, today introduced a
measure which creates state board
of chiropractic and provides for the
licensing of such chiropractors as pass
an examination to be given by the
board. The bill makes 1t necessar,
for applicants for license to be grad.
yates of a chartered chiropractie
school having a course OF at leas,
three years of six months each. The
bill gives the chiropractics the same
rights accorded other physicians witt
