THE EsrRAY LAW.

In the past there has been consider
able trouble over the matter of estrays
in this state. In some instances cattle
and horses have been taken up and not
properly advertised according to law and
finally disposed of unlawfully. On the
other hand owners of cstray stock in
stead of looking upon the taking up,
caring for and advertising of their pro-
perty as benefit and kindness have in
many instances been insulting and de-
fant- have refused to pay the cost of
advertising and keeping, and rather than
have trouble with their neighbors many
who have taken up stock have given them
up without pay for the printer or for
themselves. This is all wrong and the
last legislature has endeayored to rectify
this trouble.
The new law which became effective
last July provides that no person except
a householder can take up an estray.
then only between April LIST and Nevem-
Der 30 1t is provided that the party
taking up an estray shall proceed to adj
vertise the same as provided for by the
following section of the new law:
Sec. 1572-Notice of Taking Up Es-
trays.)-Each person taking up an es-
tray horse, mare, colt, mule. ass or any
neat cattle, sheep, hog or goat, shall with
in ten days thereafter give notice of the
finding and taking up of such animal in
a weekly newspaper, if there is such a
newspaper in the county. if not, in the
nearest newspaper. which advertisement
shall give description of such estray
and the marks and brands thereon.
Any person taking up such estray shall
also file within ten days. with the county
auditor of the county wherein such es-
tray is taken up. description of such
estray and the marks and brands there
on. ANY person taking up such estrays
who fails to advertise as aforesaid and
file description thereof with the county
auditor as herein provided shall be
guilty of misdemeanor and shall be
liable to the owners of such estray for
all damages caused by neglecting to ad-
vertise rs herein provided.
1t is the duty of the party taking up
an estray to pay the publisher for ad-
vertising the same and take receipt
from the publisher therefor. The owner
the stock. before he can take the same,
must pay for the care of the same and
the fees for advertising. No stock should
be delivered up until the actual cost of
keeping and advertising is paid by the
owner and every publisher should
insist on the publication fees being paid
in advance SO that the party taking up
an estray may have a proper voucher to
show the expense there, that he may be
imbursed. Section 1882 of the revised
codes provided that all costs and fees,
including advertising, shall constitute a
first lien upon the estray and shall be
paid by the owner before he shall be en-
