made, will be contained In an appeal
to the Supreme Court Of the United
States to declare unconstitutional the
creation Of the big forest reservation
proposition Is not to end the cam
raign OF the anti-conservationists
They have prepared to fight step
further against the alleged indepen-
dence Of the federal forest reserva-
tions from the state laws on the the
ory that the federal government in
creating them holds the land merely
as a big land proprietor and not with
any prerogatives Of sovereignty.
The fight has arisen out Of the at
tempt of the United States to enjoin
Fred Light. q Colorado cattleman.
from allowing his cattle to trespass"
on the Holy Cross forest reserve In
that state. Despite Lights claim that
the formation OF the reserve without
the consent Of the state was in viola
tIon OF the federal constitution. and
that action for trespass could not be
maintained under the Colorado laws.
unless the land In question had been
fenced. the Federal Circuit Court Is
sued the injunction.
The case was appealed to the Su-
creme Court and 1t was advanced for
oral argument on Monday. January
23d.
Colorado has Joined in the fight
against the federal government. For
ner Attorney General John T. Barnett
heads the corps Of attorneys carrying
on the fight for Light.
Among the attorneys are James II.

they will present to the court has Just

that by Withdrawing from settlement

ing treated on an equality with their
sister states, all in violation OF the
