On the other hand he says that
grazing legislation for this session is
fairly well outlined already.
Grass conservation along the lines
mentioned by Governor Ayers in his
message, will be our chief concern"
he said. There will be proposed an
amendment to the present grazing
laws which will revise and correct
them, especially as to administrative
procedure, to make them more work.
able. Montana's two grazing laws, the
first passed in 1888 and the second in
1895 are models for the nation. The
first was enacted at the same time as
the Taylor grazing act and was the
only state law recognized by the fed
eral grazing administrator when that
law went into effect. Other bills
which complement the state grazing
act are the fence laws, the road laws
laws relating to transfer of forest
lands, and laws relating to leasing of
county lands"

realized in 1889, Breitenstein pre-
dicted.
Europe Loses Charm
As a major factor in bringing thou
sands of well-to-do fasteners to
western states for the first time in
1899, he cited present unsettled con-
ditions in Europe which have already
had a noticeable effect in cutting
passenger lists on ships leaving east
ern United States ports for Europe. A
recent survey by the New York Times,
received at the chamber offices. shows
a % percent cut in such traffic during
1889, as compared with 1887.
Another factor expected to bring
tens of thousands from the middle
west to the western states this sum-
mer is the San Francisco exposition.
It is anticipated that majority of
those attending will take one route in
coming, another in returning to their
homes, with the prospect that Mon
tana, with Glacier and Yellowstone
parks as a magnet, will be crossed on
one leg of the journey.
Travel Year" Planned
Breitenstein also pointed to receipt
of information from the national
headquarters of the American Hotel
federal government, working through
the department of the interior has
mapped a systematic campaign to
make 1899 a Travel America" year
with the campaign aimed not only at
citizens of the United States, but also
at those living abroad.

cording to the Nov. &c issue of Bust

suade visitors to the San Francisco ex-
position to place scenic attractions of

Budget of Half Million

If such advertising proves success
full, as there is every reason to expect
it will be, Montana is in direct line
to benefit by the passage of tourists
across this state to reach points in
either Washington, British Columbia
or Oregon, Breitenstein pointed out.
Illustrative of what tourist travel
means, Breitenstein quoted a survey
by the United States Chamber Of
Commerce. showing how the tourists

spent for retail merchandise, q cents
spent in restaurants and cafes, II
cents spent at hotels and tourist

similar amusements, II cents for gas
