Stockmen Oppose 640 Acre Homestead Act
Livestock interests in the state urge Senators Newlands and Plattman and Representative Roberts to block a 640 acre homestead plan, arguing it will harm the sheep and cattle industry and raise living costs by limiting suitable range lands. They warn withdrawing Mono forest land to Yosemite would force up to 75 000 sheep and 15 000 cattle off ranges and worsen conditions.
