BILL TO PROVIDE GRAZING DISTRICT
 CREATION SIGNED
Another New Att Requires Election Boards 10
 Notify Secretary

Two more bills of the 18th Terri torial Legislature have been signed by the Governor and enacted into law. Both will become effective 90 days hence.
 Chapter IA (H. B. 16 by Peterson) provides for the creation of grazing districts upon petition to U. s. Con- missioners by 75 percent of the resi- dent owners of land within the area of the proposed district. At public hearing the commissioner then de- termines whether the required num- Der of signatures to the petition have been obtained and if so enters an order creating the district. The owner of land within a grazing dis trict is entitled to recover for any injury done his property by animals running at large, being empowered to impound such animals until dam ages are paid.
 The other new law is Chapter 15 (H. B. 32 by Lyng by request). It requires that election boards, in stead of retaining one copy of the canvass of votes and certification, shall send it to the Secretary of AL aska at Juneau.

 The deceased who was in his early forties is well remembered by old timers of the Island.

His body found in the woods indicated he had perished from exposure after becoming lost. Present world unrest seemed to have unbalanced him mentally.
