Hon. John 1redale, water commits
sioner for district No. 4, comprising the
counties Of Sweetwater, Uinta and part
of Fremont counties, was here yester-
day to look at some land on the Muddy
for which application to lease has been
made to the state. OF the lieu lands re-
Gently given the state, Mr.. Iredale says
that there are but $4,000 acres remain
ing in this district that have not been
leased. He says there are applications
now on file for more than zoe, 900 acres
and these are from men who are not
asking to lease more than a section.
Mr.. Iredale is n Of the staunch re-
publicans Of Sweetwater county, and
he says there is no doubt about Sweet
sater county rolling up a big majority
next fall.
In his travels over his district in the
discharge of his duties Mr.. Iredale
meets a large number Of ranchmen.
He says that he finds that a large ma
jority are in favor of the state leasing
a limited amount Of the lands. They
tell him that 1t Is absolutely necessary
for them to lease a small amount of out
side range to keep the big herds of
sheep away from their ranches and in
sure them a little feed for their little
bunch Of cattls.-Rawl!ns Republican. !

TO PROTECT OUR GAME.

The game warden of Wyoming has
sent word to the game authorities of
Colorado that they will cooperate in
stopping violations of the law on the
north line Of Colorado and the south
line of Wyoming. In speaking of the
matter Commissioner johnson of Colo
RADIO he other day said:
There have been from 1000 to g.
900 men in the employ of the Union
Pacific along the lines of that road and
from 20 to 40 miles from Colorado dur
ing the greater part of the season.
These men have been killing deer and
elk In large numbers. There was a re-
port that a mountain sheep had been
killed but | do not believe it, as the
mountain sheep generally stay around
TIMBER line and there is a law making
it a penitentiary offense to kill either
mountain sheep or buffalo. | was as
sured of the facts by the wardens, but
could not get at the men because they
would go back across the Wyoming
line. The Wyoming authorities laugh
ed with the men because they were
not hurt. Finally the men became more
bold and went after the flesh, fish and
fowl of Wyoming in a wholesale man.

MRS. DARLINGTON BOOTH is one of a few sincere
