The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1912-05-10
Statement as Issued.

Tho statement OF the commissioners IN
regard TO the sheep trail through Emf
GRAFTON canyon is as follows:
The commissioners feel that the rea-
sons which actuated them in permitting
sheep 20 pass over Big Mountain trail
this spring are perhaps misinterpreted by
some persons. aud that the entire situa
lion with respect 10 the passage OF sheep
Through Emigration canyon Is not fully
understood by the public.
The commissioners are unanimous in
Tie belief tGst tlIe trailing of sheep UP
Emigration canyon. or any other canyon,
along the streams and watershed from
tained should be stopped. and should
have been stopped years ago Unfortu-
pately. however, Salt Lake City seems to
be controlled In this matter BY statute
which has been i'm force many years, and
which Is ,ound In paragraph II o. Sec
ton e06 Of the compiled laws OF Utah of
1907. This statute provides that each city
~ the fTst class (Which can mean only
Salt Lake city,. shall provide highway
IN mud through It's corporate limits. and
so fer as IT'S Jurisdiction extends. which
shall not be closed To cattle. horses. sheep
or hoss which are being driven through
tic city or any OF its adjacent territory.
The city can regulate the manner OF
.riving animals through the canyon but
canncy prohibit their passage
Accordingly In 1909 the city council
passed resolution that sheep be allow ed
TO pass by Little Mountain trail'' only.
Whether 1t has the right so TO restrict
them Is row In litigation before the
courts Whatever tho right OF the mat
ter Is, the resolution In question has never
been enforced Every spring and every
fall since 1904. as before. sheep have
passed freely over both trails.
