CHEYENNE, Wyo., Feb. 21.—The senate today inserted an item of $25,000 in the general appropriation bill for an immi- gration commission, available under the old law but inactive for the past six years because no appropriation was made. It ig understood that this was decided upon as a substitute for the immigration and agricultural bill killed by the senate.

Consid- eration of it went over under the rules of the senate. The resolution declares that to dis- cuss the plan and proposed constitu- tion before submitting details to the senate would be “unwise, undiplo- matic and calculated to promote dis- cord” between the governments of the treaty-making powers. It calls upon the president to “preserve an unbiased and impartial mind” until he has discussed the matter with the senate. , SENATOR BORAH DEMAND VOTE OF THE PEOPLE.

Other measures given the axe by the house were House 157, the herd law, which was tabled; House 107 and Mercer-Steel bill to control grazing on the public domain. The house approved the Mercer bill to give war medals to all Wyoming sol- aiers, approved the amended fishing license bill—and tabled the Mercer bill to permit boxing contests in Wyo- ming! The senate committee recommended for passage the state fair bill, and likewise the bill House 96, proposing a mill levy for educational purposes after reducing the levy to one-quarter mill.
