OPINION
Continued from page q.

hCiiIcu ldnQS,
ETC., is used instead OF the dis
junctive or" so that only one
class OF lands is intended to be
protected, towit, cultivated and
fenced. Neither by the Statute of
1908, nor the amendment Of 1905,
or any other law OF any kind or
nature whatsoever, has the leigsla-
lure see mt to repeal the provision
OF Section I52, with reference to
fenced lands: so that it seems that
a fair construction of all these
statutes remaining in force would
indicate that it was the intention
OF the several legislatures to leave
that provision in tact.
1t is argued by counsel for the
defense that Section % of the
compiled Laws of 1897 has some
beating upon the question at issue.
This section was passed in 1882,
nine years subsequent to the law
Of 1873, Of which Sec. I52 is a
part, and provides that from and
after the passage thereof it shall
not be legal for any person or per-
sons in this Territory, or for any
owner or owners of large stock to
allow the same to run at large
during the months Of march,
April, May, June, July August,
September or October, or under
any pretext whatever 10 have them
at large upon their ranches or
herding ranges, unless they shall
have them under custody during
the months above specified; and
any person or persons who shall
violate the provisions of this Act
shall suffer a fine and costs as pro-
vided by the laws in force in this
Territory"
Whether or not this section is
of any force is immaterial to the
issues involved in this case |
may say in passing, however, that
Section 90 provides no penalty
whatever for its violation, and it
is a matter OF common knowledge
that no one pretends to follow its
provisions; and it may well be said
to be an obsolete statute which
cannot be enforced for want of a
penalty for its violation. But be
that as it may, it a have no
bearing upon the question at issue;
that is, whether or not animals
may be taken up and sold for
damages committed by them upon
growing crops, because if it pro-
vided anything il was a penalty in
the nature of a fine and costs and
not providing for compensation to
the parties damaged.
Counsel argued with consider.
able force that Sections 1928 and
1874 of the Compiled Laws, as
amended by Chapter SIS OF the
Laws of 1905, show a Legislative
construction that a herd-law pre-
vailed in this Territory; but a law
of such a nature, which would de-
prive one of his property in a
summary manner cannot be taken
by intendment, and no such law
can be enforced unless the inten-
ton of the Legislature is plain. 1t
is contrary to the long-establish-
The Tucumcari news and Tucumcari times. [volume] (Tucumcari, N.M.) 1907-1921, 1907-07-20

common law as it prevails here, or
at the time Of the passage of the
organic act, and it seems plain
that il the Legislature intended to
overthrow the custom of gener-
atoms and to enact laws such as
prevail in the states farther east,
they would at least make their in
tentions plain enough so that
there could be no misunderstood
ing.
Taking this view Of the statutes
OF this Territory, and the decis-
ions OF the Courts with reference
to this and similarly situated states
and territories. | am of the opin.
ion that stock cannot be d~istrained
for trespass upon cultivated lands
and crops which are not under
fence, as provided by law. A de-
cree will therefore be rendered
granting an injunction against the
defendants from selling plaintiffs
stock, as prayed.

Vice President Fairbanks is mak- ing great bids for the presidency, and taking his cue from Roosevelt is pat ting the Catholics and Irish on the
 back and hopes in return to catch the
 votes which these people command.
 Here is what he said in in one of his
 recent speeches: Many Irish names
 enrich the history of the United States. In every important epoch
 in American history the Irish have
 contributed their full share to safe-
 guard our institutions and to advance
 the welfare, the good name and the

 In the dark hours of the American
 revolution many Irishmen dedicated
 themselves to the cause of liberty
 upon this continent. They drew their
 swords upon the side of the brave
 continentals. To name some and not
 all who threw themselves into the struggle for independence would al- most seem ungenerous, but I can not
 forego recalling some of their names. There were Anthony Wayne, Major General Hand, Stephen Moylan, and John Barry. the first commodore of our navy. Irish names grace the im- mortal declaration of independence. They are forever associated with that mighty protest against mon- archial rule upon this continent. During the civil war thousands of Irishmen rendered their services to the imperiled republic. Thousands of them went down to the battle fields in order that the nation might live. Upon hundreds of battlefields they gave the highest proof which men can give of their devotion to this land. and when the end came Dne of the three foremost generals in all our victorious army was the gallant Irishman, General Philip H. Sheridan.

lln&er lles in radical ac-

RnSer Hes m rautcaI ac- tlon by some of the states. but this can be. and probably will be. counter acted by ntelligent discussion and the taking of the railroads into more confident relations with the public. The latter policy has already been wisely undertaken, and in future the market will probably have less to fear on this score than from the re- actionary effects of economic causes. These have really been at the bottom of the recent decline, in spite of the attempts to place the responsibility upon various individuals, who can do nothing more than aggravate or pre- cipitate the reaction which is sure to came. The possibility of serious railroad strike in the west is the latest blow to- confidence in financial circles, but it now begins to look as if such a serious disaster will be averted. The worst of the financial earthquake in my opinion is over.'

NThe Russians seem to have no idea of the slowness which characterizes
 genuine reforms. With western
 Europe before their eyes as a model,
 or with the fanciful ideals depicted
 by socialist dreamers in mind, they are rushing upon the work of trans
 forming a medieval country into an
 ideal nation. They seem to have no conception O. the slowness with
 which new ideas soak into the minds of an uneducated people, Or of the futility of all reforms which are not
 rooted in popular demands. Gov ernment," says an American writer, lis an index of want and power in the governed" And the character of good government is an index of the wants and the powers which pre- wade the mind of the people. It is the idlest of follies to set up insti- tutions for which the character and the thoughts of the people make no demand. That was the mistake made by Peter the Great. and continued by his successors during the eighteenth century, with the result of burdening the country with western arrange ments, for which the people had no use, and of creating city-Russia. with a veneer of western ideas and and a country-Russia which would have none of them. The dual ism thus created has been of fright full harm to the country; and the re- formers appear to strive to repeat Peter's mistake in new and still more forms.

A good deal of erazgeratinn er

X good deal of exaggeration exists
 as to the effect of Mir Roosevelt's att
 titude towards the railroads. If all
 the truth were known, it is likely that he is not half so radical as some
 of his enemies would have us believe
 writes Banker Clews. '-The danger of injurious federal legislation has unquestionably been much exaggeT- ated. That something will eventual
 ly be done to prevent repetition Of
 old abuses must be accepted as in-
 evitable: but any radical or serious .ly injurious national legislation against American railroads is almost impossible Notwithstanding the mis- deeds of some of their managers. the American railroads are in too sound a position and of too great bene- fit and importance to the country at large to permit the passage of any legislation President Roosevelt neither asks nor would sup port any movement of that character.
