Topeka, August 11-(Special.)
District Attorney Dean filed
three suits in the federal court
today to compel western cattle
men to tear down fences around
their ranches which contain
government land. One suit was
directed against the c. P. Dewey
Cattle Company, of Rawlins-
Cheyenne counties. Another
was against the Mills-Woods Cat
tie Company of Hamilton county.
The third was against R. E.
Steele, cattleman of Meade
county. In each bill the district
attorney alleges that the ranch
men have government land en-
closed in their pastures. He
asks for a mandatory injunction
compelling the defendants to
tear down their fences around
all pastures containing govern
r1ent land and keep them down.
Several other suits of this kind
will be instituted as fast as Dean
can prepare the papers. This
is the first time the government
has resorted to the courts tokeep
fences down in the short grass
country. In the past it simply
sent agents to order them down.
Some of the cattlemen would
obey and others would not.
Usually these who did obey
would put them up again as soon
as the inspector got out of sight.
