Senate Buries Guard Act Amid Bipartisan Vote
The Senate voted 16 to 11 to lay the Guard Act, proposed by Senator Bibley to bar state officers from mineral interests, after a partisan mix of Republicans and Democrats. Senator Sibley led opposition to a National Guard bill tied to the National Defense Act but the measure was postponed. In the House, the Pilot county bill to create Fremont county failed on third reading by two votes, with reconsideration possible today. The boundary changes aim to secure support, but many backers fear final passage. The Oil Bill’s fate followed Sibley’s measure as debate continued.
