RECENT DECISION DOES NOT AZ
Feet THE COLLECTION OF
CHARGES FOR GRAZING
ON THE RESERVES.
Judge Whitson Merely Decided Point
Relating to Criminal Prosecutions
for Using Grazing Lands, and Not
AS to Right of Department of In
terror to Enforce Payment-Wyo-
ming Papers Are Quoted.


Npttlhi ~ nc iNfpu'''Nhhs
Washington, Dec. 31.-A recent de
cision OF a federal judge has been
widely commented upon throughout
the west on the superstition that it de
clared illegal the regulation of grazing
on forest reserves and the system OF
charging for grazing permits. AS a
matter of fact, the decision, which was
handed down by Judge Whitson, of the
United States district court for eastern
washington, in the case of the United
States against Matthews, has no bear
ing whatever upon the legality Of the
grazing regulations or of grazing fees,
which stand precisely as before. The
legal question involved was simply
this: Does the law authorizing the
secretary of agriculture to issue regu-
%lations make the breach of those regu'
lations a crime?
Judge Whitson's decision merely an
swers this question NO" 1t was in
substance that the objection to the in.
dictment against Walter Matthews was
the absence of a law defining the act
therein charged as a criminal offense.
Upon that ground the court held that
the demurrer must be sustained and
the defendant discharged.
Cheyenne Paper Mistaken.
Though the point was simple and
| clear enough, it was entirely miscon-
| strued in the press reports of the de-
cision and in editorial comments upon
it. For instance, in the Wyoming Tri-
bune of Tuesday, November 6, news of
| Judge Whitson's action was given I'M
der the headlines: Grazing Fees IL
legal Decides Federal Judge" and the
article declares that "As a result of the
decision, Matthews, who entered the
| Mount Rainier forest reserve without
the permit required by the secretary, is
still using the reserve and is not paying
the fee imposed by the secretary" AS
a matter of fact, Mr.. Matthews's sheep
were Immediately removed upon no
tice by the forest officers and have not
since entered the reserve.
Sheridan Papers Also.
In the Sheridan (Wyo.) Post it is
said: "a decision fraught with i'm
portance to Wyoming stockmen is that
appearing in this issue, wherein it is
held by the United States district court
that the collection of fees for grazing
live stock is illegal. = " = Since its i'm,
position this fee has been regarded as
illegal and arbitrary to many well-in-
formed Wyoming people, and the views
expressed by the court in this decision
meet with general approval here. =
The litigant is still running his sheep
on the Rainier reserve without paying
the fees"
Decisions Not New.
Decisions like Judge Wilson's had
before been made by the federal courts
in three other districts, one of them
six years ago, but none of these inter.
feres in the slightest with the right of
the United States to institute civil
action against ~trespassers violating the
grazing regulations, or with charging
the grazing fee. The United States
circuit court of appeals for the Ninth
circuit decided definitely, in the case

some of the finest music / ever heard

Petition.

Reno, New, June 13.--Mrs. William
Ellis Corey, wife Of the president Of the
United States steel corporation. filed a
petition yesterday in the second dis
irict court OF Nevada at this place for
an absolute decree of divorce.
The domestic troubles Of the Coreys
came before the public last December,
when the steel magnate. answering a
report that he and his wife had sepa-
rated and that he intended to marry
Mabelle Gilman, the actress. Corey de-
cided not to sue for a divorce and stated
that he would not oppose legal proceed
ings. Pittsbmg society was consider
ably aroused BY this statement and
invariably sided with Mrs. Corey. 1t
was reported that, owing to the quarrel.
Mr.. Corey would resign the presidency
pf the steel corporation This report
proved unfounded. however. And later,
100, Mrs. Corey decided not to sue for
II divorce, Mr.. Corey promising TO break
with the actress. This agreement, II
is said, was for the sake Of their son.
In February, however, Mrs Corey de-
ci,led TO sue and left for Nevada to Sc
cure divorce.
