MORE LAND FENCERS ARE UP
Five Hebraska Oattlsmen Charged with
Illegally Enclosing Territory.
rwENTY.stVtN THOUSAND ACRES IN ALL
District Attorney Baxter Regards
This as Most FlaErant Case
and H. Determined In Ills
Plans of Prosecution.

Information was filed in the United States
district court Monday morning against II.
b. Reed on the grounds that he had Tile
gally fenced 1000 acres df land. and against
Adam Miller, Clarence NJ Miller, Charles
Miller and William o. Miller for fencing
1900 acres OF public lands included in tho
United States forest reservations in Nc
PhersOn county. Capiases were ordered is
sued for the arrest OF the accused parties
and they will be taken before the United
States commissioner at North Platte for
arraignment.
The cases against these parties have been
worked up since the conviction Of the
Krause brothers OF Sheridan county under
the direction OF United States District At
torney Baxter and Special Assistant At
torney Rush by Special Land Agents De
Frees, Chambers and Dixon.
The appropriation of the public domain
by Reed and the Mlllers is materially DIFF
ferent from that of the Krauses and the
Bartlett Richards cases, from the fact
that the lands appropriated by Reed and
the Miilers Is land not subject to entry
and is part Of the land upon which the ma
tional government Is making its forest and
timber growing experiments. The offense
is consequently regarded as more fragrant
than that Of the Krause brothers. Criminal
proceedings are to be instituted against the
accused parties at once,
But Beginning, Says Baxter.
District Attorney Baxter said;
This is but the beginning of the cases
against the cattlemen for repeated viola
lions of the order Of the Department of
Justice to take down their fences. We
shall prosecute these cases to the fullest
extent OF the power givon us by the gov
eminent"
The investigations of the special agents
now in the field have developed the fact
that the cattlemen have defiantly ignored
the orders of the government for the re-
moval of their fences. The first intention
Of the government to proceed against the
violators OF the order by civil process has
been abandoned and criminal action will
be instituted. In order to expedite mat
| tiers the violators of the order, and all who
are maintaining illegal fences, will be ar
| rested and taken before United States COM
| missioners for their preliminary hearing
and II the evidence warrants, they will be
bound over directly to the United States
district court, without waiting for the te.
dious process of a grand jury investiga.
