BIC VICTORY FOR SHEEP OWNER
Federal Judge fTsha in Important Opinion Holds That m,
Flockmasters May Craze Their Herds on Cow
eminent Forest Reservations

In the United States court this morn
ing Judge Marshall handed down an
opinion In the case OF United States
VS.. Frank Martnus, which win be OF
vital interest to all sheepmen. bearing
as 1t does upon the constitutlonallty Of
the regulation Of the secretary Of the
interior In respect to the trespasslng
Of sheep on the forest reserves. The
opinion not only is oA interest to the
defendant IN this case but to many 9TH
ers who have been prosecuted for graz
ing their flocks ON the forest reserves
Of Utah.
The opinion delivered today by his
honor is In regard to demurrer filed
by counsel on behalf OF Frank Mar
Thus, who is charged that on June
:, 1902, he wilfully and unlawfully pas
tured about 1000 sheep on tne rIsn

ton. To this information defendant
interposed o general demurrer
Judge Marshall, in his opinion says
that 1T is not claimed that any law
Of Congress in terms makes II unlawful
10 Craze sheep on public reservations,
but 1t Is contended that the secretary
of the interior under statutory authori-
~ Invested In him has made
regulations forbidding the graz
ing OF sheep on forest reserves
except by his express permission. The
information does not allege that the
reservation In question was forest re.
serve or that the secretary Of the in
terror had made any such rule or fegu-
lation, or that the defendant did not
fall within the exception, II the regu
latlon was such that the exception had
to be negatived.
1T is doubtless thought that these
matters are within the judicial knowl-
edge OF the court. Admitting this 10
be true, the necessity of pleading them
Is not obyiated. Judicial knowledge
can only be relied upon to prove facts
properly alleged, II does not dispense
With ayerment. Such regulations as
the secretary of the interior may have
made are executive acts and public
records; but are matters of fact as dis
tinguished by matters Of law. The
demurrer might well be sustained on
this ground, but the only question ar
gued has been the contention that the !
failure OF defendant 10 obey a regula- |

spect to this matter did not constitute

Of the vegetable throwing episode at

phase on Saturday night or early yes

Pratt, with the ayowed intention OF
shaving his head, painting his face
and then marching him up town and
turning him loose.
The carefully conceived plans Of the

Both Pratt and Gibbs arose and
dressed. The latter, however, became
suspicious and decided to go down
stairs and make a tour Of inspection.
Pratt remained upstairs. Gibbs had
no sooner landed at the foot Of the
stairs than he was seized by strong
hands and overpowered. He struggled
to free himself and managed to utter a
cry of warning to Pratt. A handker-
chief saturated with ammonia was
clapped over Gibbs face and he was
rendered helpless. The students soon
discovered their mistake and permitted
Gibbs TO go, warning him 70 keep still

In the meantime, Pratt was getting
