FREE PASTURAGE FOR HIS SHEEP
A case Was tried in the District Court
yesterday, wherein the United States
Government brought suit against Car
mine and Cutting, sheep raisers, for
trespassing on the Piute Reservation at
Pyramid Lake. 1t appeared that for
the past three or four years the defend
ants had pastured their sheep upon the
reservation, in spite of repeated re-
quests from the Indian agent that it
they were liable for damages. The
defendants SO persistently violated the
law that suit was finally brought to
recover dollar a head for all sheep
that had been rastured there at odd
times. The prosecution failed to estab-
lish any partnership between Carnine
and Cutting, and it was shown that
Carmine exercised no control over the
acts of Cutting, but backed him with
money in the enterprise. The proceed
ings against Carmine were therefore
and the defendant dis
charged. The jury also found a verdict
for Cutting, on the grounds that the
Indians had given him permission to pas
ture his sheep on the Reservation.
