Burton failed to appeal from the de-
cision rendered by Judge Pope, Dec.
80, 1912, but filed the present bill on
Jan. Is, 1913, in the United States
court of the Western district of Okla
homa, against the Howe heirs, in
which bill he has set up substantially
the same facts set up In his original
bill against Parker, to which the de-
murrer to the same by Parker was
sustained by Judge Campbell, and
final judgment rendered dismssine
the bill. There is practically no diff

ton against Parker, and the present
bin pending filed by Burton against
the Howe heirs.
We are therefore, of the opinion
that Burton, in his present suit
against the Howe heirs. has absolutely
no standing and no possible claim on
the land for number Of reasons
among which are:
First, Because he has no standln:
in a court of equity to prosecute Q
suit of this kind, never having had
any vested interest in the land. He
was not an entryman and never had
any possession except as trespasser
and has always occupied the position
in all contests and litigation as a con
testing informer
Second, Because the United States
circuit court of appeals has already
decided CHowe ct al VS.. Parker ct a,
on all the evidence submitted before
the department of the interior, I'm
cludirg that submitted by Burton
against Hurton, and held THAT no
evidence was introduced making q
prima facie case against Howe the
entryman by any and all OF the con
testing sooners and lnformers, includ-
ing Burton.
Third, Because the United States
circuit court of appeals Howe ct al
VS.. Parker ct all supra. has decided
that 1T is a rule of reason. of law and
Of property, that an adjudication by
the land department after tri1l with
out collusion between the parties that
a charge made by an informer against
an entryman. was unfounded, was a
bar OF contest against the latter by
another informer on the same
charge" Both Parker and Burton
were informers. and this decision as
effectively forecloses and bars Burton
as II does Parker.
Respectfully submitted.
