Governor Steuhenberg has re-
ceiyed complaints from the south
eastern portion Of the state to the
effect that Utah sheepmen are dis
regarding the quarantine law
enacted at tie recent session of our
legislature. The law requires that
sheep must be inspected and
dipped before being driven in from
another state, hut our neighbors
are driving upon the Idaho ranges
without paying any attention to it.
The governor has called lnspec-
tor Chatten's attention to the
matter and instructed him to notify
his deputies that they must see
that the law is complied with.
The principal section Of the law
is as follows:
section =. Any person, per-
sons, company, corporation or
association intending to bring or
cause to be brought, from any
other state or territory into any Of
the counties Of the state of Idaho,
any sheep, he or they must first

of the district or county neal est
the point Of entrance into this
state, that at fixed date he will
be within 20 miles from the state
line, at a designated point, with
said sheep for inspection; and it
shall be the duty Of the deputy
sheep inspector to examine such
sheep within three days, and if
pronounced sound, to Immediately
dip such sheep once, and then
upon being rendered his compensa-
ton as hereinafter provided, issue
a permit allowing such sheep to
enter this state, subject to such
regulations as are enforced on resi-
dent sheep. But if such sheep are
found scabby or infected with any
contagious or infectious disease,
then the deputy sheep inspector
must dip said sheep twice with an
interval Of from eight to fifteen
days betwee n dipping, and then
issue permit for said sheep to
enter said state under the same
regulations as heretofore provided.
Provided, however, that all sheer
must enter said state within three
days for final dipping, otherwise
permit SO issued shall be null and
void. And any person or persons
violating any Of the provisions o.
this section shall be deemed guilty
Of misdemeanor, and upon con.
vietion, they shall be punished b,
a fine of not less than 500 MOI
more than $500, or by ilaprison,
ment in the county jail not les.

six months, or by both such fine
and imprisonment: Provided

DOWN TO THE RED ASH VEIN.
Contract for Rock Work on No. @
Shaft at Pittston Awarded.

The Pennsylvania Coal company has
been making extensive improvements
in the collieries of the Pittston district
during the past year, and the work is
not yet completed. 1t is announced
now that No. 6 shaft at Inkerman is to
be enlarged and the workings extended.
Preparations for the work are now in
progress, and it is expected that the
first of the coming month will find the
mine idle and the improvements
started.
The principal improvement will be
the sinking Of the shaft from the big
or Pittston vein to the Red Ash vein,
a distance of between 275 and 300 feet.
The Red Ash vein at this point Is about
six feet thick. 1t is also intended to
widen the shaft about five feet, so that
altogether il will be an extensive job
and q great Improvement to the mine,
enlarging the capacity and facilitating
the handling of the product. The con-
'ract for the rock work has been award
d to Nicholas Rapson, of wyoming.
Eho has had much experience in rock
work, and who is at present engaged
In sinking the, Abbott air shaft for the
Pennsylvania company.
There are about thirty chambers be-
ing worked in No. mine at present,
some of them double, and it is the in
tention of the officials to give the men
work in the nearby collieries of the
company while the improvements are
in progress. Most of them will get
chambers in No. and No. 11.-Pitts-
ton Gazette.
