A Palpable Injustice.

The trial OF two rangers recently Mt
Colorado City charged with murder H.
Illustrates the injustice to which mem
bers Of this body of slate police NAV h.
subjected i'll The actual discharge az
duty. The facts of the case in question
were that citizens of Colorado appealed
To the captain of the rangers for protee-
non rom an individual crazed by
orlhk, Two OF his men were ordered
to patrol the town, and immediately
on gaining this information the dos.
perado hunted them out and made an
assault upon them, the result of which
was.that he WAS killed. His friends
were influential and the ranger, were
indicted for murder. The trial oc-
casion.d them much expenditure and
touble, for which no provisions have
been made by the state. Acting under
orders aud subject to severe penalty
IN disobeying they are held persopa,,y
reseonsible for results. Adjutnnt-

scription from the rangers to partly
defray the cost of this particular trial

fences. The night.rders with nippers
haven't been raiding his pasture in

events of last year. and is putting in
his time TO the best advantage.

Railroad Legislation.


Railroad legislation seems to n,,v.

railroad corporations, besides resolu-

These, of course, deal only with the
Pacific roads, and others that hive
been built by aid of federal grants of
lands, and which are directly respo
sible TO federal authority and subiec;
to federal regulation. OF the intended
laws, three are identical in calling for
the restitution ofunearnrd land grants
that Is, that the lands granted in aid
OF certain roads, on expressed condi-
tiOns, which conditions have not been
complied with, shall revert to the pub
lie domain Of the United States. An
other is akin to these. prohibiting the
secretary of the interior to issue land
patents to any railroad company until
the conditions on which such land wa,
granted are complied with. Bedford
and Tully submit bills to regulate the
Pacific railroads, and prescribing a
