STATE TODAY (Continued from Page 1) Probability, and will be passed by that hody tomorrow. Some members, how- ever! have véry clear’ ideas’ regarding some sections of. the bill, and these | were heard in the committee of the whole this morning, with the result that a few changes were made in the original draft of the measure. A few members of the lower house—the At- torneys Sullivan, Sackett, Hardin and perhaps others—have a comprehensive grasp of the full meaning of the bill and a clear realization of those things wherein it will be of benefit to the irri- gating interests of Wyoming. House bill 2 Is designed—reducing statement of jts intent to a paragraph —to incorporate in the irrigation dis- ‘trict law of the state provisfons where- junder the apportionment of the expense jof constructing district irrigation proj- ects shall be regulated by consideration of the proportionate benefits derived from such projects by the various lots and parcels of land benefiteg—to dis- tribute equitably among the property owners benefited the burden of finan- cing the benefit provided. » There are other features wherein house bill 2 dif. | fe from the existing law. but the dif- ference stated is the major difference and it is the acute necessity for such a change in the law which brings the subject before an extraordinary session of the legislature at which only two other subjects—the suffrage amendment given consideration. The Big Horn basin is the section of the state most acutely feeling the need of a new irrigation district law and it was the insistence of the legislative representatives of that portion of the state that resulted in Governor Carey and the Republican majority of the leg- islature agreeing that irrigation legisla- tion should be considered at the special session. Speaker Eugene Sullivan, a specialist in irrigation law, is steering per year and that allj house bill 2 over, around and thru the legisiative shoals, patiently and lucid- ly explaining the intent and effect of its provisions. The subject is one his knowledg of which is profoundly ground- ed and, which, had his foresight been given recognition, would not have had to come before thé special session. In 1913 he endeavored to secure enactment of © measure very similar to that now under consideration, and subsequently continued his efforts in that direction, but not until his wisdom and persist- ecy were reinforced by the distressing lessons of a year of extraordinary drouth—1919—w; his foresight vindi- cated sufficiently not merely to com- mand, but.to demand, legislative recog faith in Casper and believe it is going to grow faster in the n: seven years than it did in the Inst seven. Every man or woman who is interested in its growti should join the chamber of com. merce and mer thle. eraws ss it to grow.”” JINX STALKS IN DESERT COUNTRY Water Shortage Lates Latest Misfortune to Overtake Stockman to the Southwest (Special to The Tribune.) ROCK SPRINGS, Wyo., Jan. 27.— Sheepmen who range their flocks in the Red Desert district are wondering what variety of hard luck will overtake therm next. Ordinarily the desert is the best winter range in the state but last sum- mer was so dry that the desert’s crop of forage was very light. Before the sheep sent into the desert at the begin- ning of winter “iad time to make great inroads on the scant supply of forage, however, h unprecedented period ot cold and snow set in and what forage there was was so deeply covered that the flocks could not reach it, this mak- ing it neces to import forage into ssert at appalling expense. Théu- of sheep died. The cold weather followed by 2 period of ramar' rm Ww her and the natural f Fi in became uncovered and available, but now the warm w has melted all the snow in the desert and there is a shortage of water there, with the prospect that it will be necessary to] drive the flocks out.

Immediately after intro! duction, therefore, printed copies were on the desks of the members and thd houses could proceed with consideration ; of the measures. In expediting the suf. frage “resolution the senate suspended! its rules. and . considered the printed copy of the resolution the engrossed copy, this making it possible to pass the measure directly ffom second fead. ing to third reading and final passage. A similar course will be followed in the lower house with the irrigation dis- trict bill-and the appropriation bill. The suffrage resolution was intro- duced in the senate by the committee on judiciary at 2:48 o'clock yesterday aiternoon. Between that time and the hour of the measure's final passage, printing committee, reported by the committee as printed, referred to the committee of the whole, considered by, the committee “ofthe whole, ° slightly | amended, reported back to the senate! with the recommendation that it do pass | as amended, read a second time under suspension of the rules, the rules sus- pended that the printed copy might be considered the engrossed bill, and the rules again suspended that the meas- ure might be placed on third reading and final passage.

Announcement in the house of thessen- ate's action caused applause there. | (Special to The Tribune.) CHEYENNE Wyo., Jan, 27.—The4 house at 1 o'clock this afternoon passed House Bill No. 2, the irrigation dis- trict act and the meastire was before the senate later in the afternoon. Im mediately after the woman suffrage amendment is disposed of this afternoon the house will take up the appropriation act. The irrigation bill was passed by un- animous vote after a number of amend- ments had been made, including one exempting state-owned lands in irriga- tion districts from assessment for dis- trict irrigation works. Pressure from Sheridan and other northern ‘Wyoming communities to have consideration given the county g00d roads‘ bill which Governor Carey vetoed after the last regular ‘session, failed this morning, when the majority agreed to limit the \legislative program to the bounds originally agreed upon with the exception of the incorpora- tion therein of two memorials to con- ress and the addition to the appropria- tions bill of an item of $10,000 to be expended in the discretion of governor |for the assistance of former serv men. The two additional memorials will be brot in the senate this after- noon. One will protest against the manner in which the census enumeration has been conducted in Wyoming and will request an extension of the period of €iumeration The other will request iaore thcro and efficient administration House bill No. 1, which will be quick- ly disposed of by both branches of the legislature, in the form in which it was introduced by the committee on appro- priations of the lower house carries i, 000 to pay the per diem and travel- ing expenses of the legislators inciden- tal to the special session, and $100 to pay for printing. Before the bill is passed, however,” it will be necessary to:add several hundred dollars to its total to meet other expenses. The prospect today is that the spe- cial session will terminate tomorrow afternoon or tomorrow night, unless un- avidable delays result from the intrica- cies of the irrigation bill, and that by Thursday night Cheyenne again will be deserted by legislators except those who reside here. The two houses are working with emergency forces of clerks and wther employes. A few of the “regulars” are on the job, including Chief Clerk C. O. Downing of the lower house. The majority of the assistants in each cham. ber are state officers or employes in the | State offices. In the senate State Com- missioner of Immigration Charles Ss. Hill is acting as chief clerk, a posi- tion he held in several legislatures, and State Pure Food Commissioner C. Stan- ley Greenbaum as assistant chief clerk, while that old veteran of the legisla- live halls, State Humane Commissioner Ed. Burke, is acting as sergeant-at- arms. The volunteer sergeant-at-arms of the lower house is Oscar Beck of Big Piney, a member of the state board of livestock commissioners, « former } member of the legislature and for years past always present at regular sessions as a member of the “third house.” The/assistants in each house, other than those referred, to follow: Senate—Journal clerk, Ann M.
