To the Honorable President and
Members Of the Police Jary of the

unnecessary burden imposed upon
us by the present fence and stock

galizes barb.wire fence as q fence
material, and authorizes the Police
Juries to designate the manner in
which it shall be used in their re.
spectiye parishes, or any portion
thereof. Under authority of that
act we request the passage of an or
dinance authorizing us to enclose
our lands under one general fence,
or each one his own lands, with a
fence constructed with three barb
wires, tightly stretched and fasten.
ed to posts every Is feet apart, with
good and substantial gates on all
public roads. Your petitioners,
while they do not object to the pas
sage of a similar ordinance, applica-
BILE to the entire parish, do not ask
for it. We are merely asking relief
for ourselves from q burden we feel
no longer able to bear. We can
make no stronger argument, or ap-
peal, in favor ofthe ordinance asked
for, than the following facts and
figures submitted for your consider
alton:

SEVERAL FATALLY INJURED.
Tuesday night. says a Denver telegram,
one OF the most disastrous snow-slldes ever
known in the Rocky Mountain region oc-
cnrred about three miles from Crested
Rutte. Late in the night thirty men EN-
ployed In the Howard f. Smith anthracite
coal mine were startled from their sleep by
an ominous rumbling noise, and almost IN
stantly the avalanche was upon them. The
building in which they were sleeping was
crushed TO atoms and its occupants
were hurled down the mountain-side. A
rcscuipg party started out from Crested
Butte as soon as the news was received
there. and after several hours OF indefati-
gable labor the men were all uncovered.
Philip Carmen, Logan lnman, Louis Rich
ards, William Moore, Charles Belts, j. D..
RAYMOND, and one other, name unknown,
were found dead. Eighteen others were
injured-several fatally. All OF the COM
pany's expensive machinery was destroyed.
A passenger train Tuesday, when with
in six miles OF Crested Butte, was DIVIDED,
the engine. going ahead TO clear the track;
When about four miles from where 1t had
left the coaches the engine was struck by Il
snow slide and ditched. and Is now under
about twenty feet OF snow. A wrecking
engine, which left this morning, could mol
get nearer than within two miles OF the
coaches, and returned tonight for proyi-
sions for the starving passengers.

be unobservant IN matters OF the sort.
