Agriculture and the Department of the
Interior, and also to the entire Idaho
delegation. 1t met with the unanimous
approval of all these officials and Bur-
ton L. French drew up the bill and in
troduced it. 1t passed the lower house
Senate in December and discussed and
amended and then referred to a con-
ference committee. 1t has been in the
hands of this committee and open for
discussion until two weeks ago when
the committee made a favorable re-
port and the bill is now in the hands
of the President who must either sign
or veto it by Friday March Srd.
The opposition to the bill is all based
upon the manner in which the grazing
lands are to be distributed.
They charge that by Fred Gooding
MS associates having options on
100000 acres of the grazing lands, it
creates a land monopoly.
That it nuHifies the mile limit laws
That it puts a crimp into the small
stocNman to the advantage of the big
stock man.
They charge mat it is q scheme to
grab public domain at the expense Of
the people.
Bv using Miles Cannon as their ball
lyhoo man they succeeded in stirring
up considerable excitement which re-
suited in mass meeting at Boise in
which the Gooding option on the rail-
read lands was made the subject of
many violent speeches and an effort
made to induce the President to not
sign tie bill
The opponents of the bill were dill

mass Of objections which would make
a false impression on the public mind
and prejudice the public against the
holders Of the option from the railway
