SHEEP REGULATIONS.
One State Has Power to Quarantine
Against Sheep from Another.

A decision of great Importance
throughout the west, and affecting
Wyoming as directly as any other
state was rendered at Washington in
the case of H. Rasmussen, plaintiff
in error, VS.. the state of Idaho, in
which the decisions of the state courts
are sustained, says the Sheridan Post.
Rasmussen was convicted in the
Oneida county, Idaho, court several
years ago of driving sheep from Box
Elder county, Utah, into Idaho in vio-
lation of a. proclamation issued by
Governor S~teunenburg prohibiting the
driving into Idaho of all sheep ranged
within certain Utah counties in which
scab prevailed, this proclamation be-
ing issued under authority of the state
statutes. II
Rasmussen appealed from the de-
cision Of the lower court to the SUI
preme court of Idaho, where the de-
cision was sustained. The case was
appealed to the United States SUI
preme court, Rasmussen being repre-
scented by ex-senator Arthur Brown
and Henry Henderson.
His counsel commended that the SUI
preme court of Idaho erred in sustain
ing the validity of the act authorizing
the governor to exclude certain sheep
from the state, and that it erred in
holding the act of the legislature and
the proclamation of the governor was
not in violation of the constitution Of
the United States. They contended
sheep owners have a right to utilize
the grasses upon the public domain
and that the state of Idaho cannot
directly or indirectly exclude the
sheep of citizens of other states from
grazing upon lands of the United
States in Idaho.
In it's opinion the supreme court
affirmed the decisions of the Idaho
courts, and held that the Idaho statute
regulating and the importation ofsheep
likely to convey diseases in the state
is constitutional, and that the COVER
nor, in issuing his proclamation under
this statute, did not exceed his power.
THE statute" said Justice Brewer,
was an act of the state of Idaho, con-
templating solely the protection of
it's own sheep from the introduction
among them of an infectious disease,
and providing for only such restraint
upon the introduction of sheep from
other states as in the judgment of
the state was absolutely necessary
to prevent the spread of the disease

T AN OUTRAGE.
The New North Dakota Grazing
Law.

Helena Independent: zone of the
most outrageous measures have ever
heard of is now on the statute books
of North Dakota" said State Veter-
inian NJ. E. Knowles, who has just
returned from a trip to Fargo, yester-
day. 1T is a law providing that when
any nonresident attempts to Craze
his stock upon the public ranges of
that state, he is liable to the county
in which he places such stock in the
sum of so cents per month for each
head of stock, no matter whether it
be horses, cattle or sheep.
Il do not believe that the results
of the operation of this law, which
was passed by the last legislature,
is known to the people of this state,
and l am going to do my best to make
them acquainted with it's provisions.
at is not only required that the
wne of live stock pay this tax, but
he must pay it each month, in ad-
vance, and in case it is not paid with
in 10 days from the time the stock
are put on the range, the law gives
the county treasurer the right to seize
the stock and sell II in the same
manner as delinquent property"
DR.. Knowles brought back several
copies of the measure, which reads
as follows:
Section /. Any owner of live stock
nonresident of this state who shall
or' e" an. 'ounty in the state OF

suffer any stock owned by him to en-
ter any county of the state of North
Dakota and feed upon the range
thereof, shall pay into the county
treasury of the county thus entered
the sum of so cents per month for
each head of stock so entering and
feeding upon such range, for each and
every month said stock shall SO feed,
