SECTION 1927 IDAHO STATUTES
CONSTRUED AND UPHELD IN
OPINION OF CoURT-CLEARs
MOoTED QUESTION.

The supreme court holds constitu-
tlonal section 6S27, revised codes, which
prohibits permitting sheep to trespass
on cattle ranges. The finding of the
court were in two decisions handed
down last week by Justice Alfred
Bulge in two separate cases involving
the same point. His opinion is con-
CURED in by his associates. The cases
are the State of Idaho versus Secun-
dino Omaechevviaria, appealed from
the judgment entered in the Third ju-
dicial district court for Owynee county,
Judge Carl A. Davis presiding, who is
affirmed, and the case of the State of
Idaho versus s. F. Horn, John Eiler
and John Calvin appealed from the
Judgment entered in the Sixth judicial
district court for Custer county, Judge
J. NJ. Stevens presiding, whose judg-
ment for the defendants is reversed.
Settles Dispute.
Both cases represented clash be-
tween sheep and stockmen over use
of the range. This has been mooted
issue for years due to the trespassing
of sheep onto stock range thereby MAX
ing it useless for feeding purposes, ac-
cording to the views of the stockmen.
The supreme court clearly defines that
the range does not belong to the sheep
men, but to the United States; that the
sheepmen have an equal right with all
other citizens of the state to the use of
this public domain within the jurisdic-

BONDING CO. MUST REPAY
Over $4,000 Taken From July IL, 1913
To Jan. 81, 1914-$s0,o0O Disap-
peared in One Year.

Boise, October IL, 1915.-The state
of Idaho will have to be reimbursed
$133,608.82 by the bondsmen of o. V.
Allen, self-confessed embezzler of pub
lie funds serving a term in the peni-
tentiary here, to square its accounts.
This fact is shown in a report filed with
Governor Alexander and Attorney
General J.. H. Peterson, members of the
depository board, by James s. Bogart,
who has been making careful check
on the treasury books with the assis-
tance of Fred M. Coleman, defaulting
deputy state treasurer, who is praised
for his help. When he took charge of
the books and accounts there was an
admitted shortage of $92,517.03 as
found by Axel P. Ramstedt president
of the public utilities commission. To
this he adds $41, ,091.79, part shortage,
part interest on embezzled funds to
which, the state is entitled to recover
from the National Surety company,
surety on Allen IS bond.
The Juggling of coupons, the discount
ing of bonds, the collecting of interest
never remitted to the state but which
went into Allen s pocket, is shown In
the expert s report. He recommends
that no money be received by the treas
urer in the future without first being
apportioned by the state auditor and
that the issuance of land department
orders on the treasury department be
stopped. The report shows Allen stole
approximately $50, 900 in one year.
Mr.. Bogart also recommends that be-
fore final settlement is reached with
the bondsmen complete examination
of all sources of revenue be had.
How Money Disappeared.

porter Houser, who was said to have
cornered the charters from Pacific
coast ports both last year and this
year. 1t was largely to secure the help
of the state s congressman in this mat
ter that they had been invited to be
present and he was sure that if the
meeting had been one of bankers or
millmen instead of farmers they would
all have managed to attend despite the
shortness of notice
He pointed out that banks loaned
farmers only SO per cent of the value
of their wheat at point of shipment,
but they loaned wheat buyers not only
the full value there, but in addition
the most of freight to tidewater.
Lawrence Defends Houser.
j. G. Lawrence said the situation to-
day pretty closely paralleled that of a
year ago The question was what
action should be taken while the pro-
ducer still held the wheat. In his
opinion what the farmers needed was
a fiscal agent, disassociated from any
thought of personal profit in market
ing of grain. To start "hold your
wheat movement now was serious
responsibility, though he had been in
favor of that movement last year. So
far as he had been able to ascertain
the price at Portland was in harmony
with the world IS price, considering the
high ocean freights. He was advised
by a friend in Portland that neither
Mr.. Houser nor any other exporter
could corner charters, and he believed
that If Mr.. Houser had not so many
ships under charter the present price
would be lower. Sufficient ships have
not yet been secured to move all the
crop.
Since the outbreak of the war, ocean
freights had advanced 40 cents the
bushel between Pacific Coast ports and
Liverpool. Atlantic rates had been
raised almost as much. Presuming
there was an exportable surplus of 300,-
100000 bushels in the country this ad-
vance in freights meant $40, 100000 on
this years crop. This was consider
able sum in comparison with the much
talked of loan to the allies
Though he agreed with Mr.. Hutchin-
son in the main he did not agree in
regard to Mr.. Hill, who neither owned
nor conducted an elevator at Seattle.
The Great Northern railway did own
one, but it was leased to an exporter
and neither Mr. Hill nor the Great
Northern was interested in the buying
of wheat.

With regard to the combine in ship
ping he asked was there a chance to
secure a federal Investigations He sug-
gested that the purchase of ships by
the government was a possible solu.
tion. The fostering of agricultural in
terest by Germany was one of the main
sources of the strength of that country
in this war. He suggested that the
United States government should back
it's farmers organizations. He was sat

SHEEPNEN MUST KEEP OFF CATTLE
RANGES RULING OF SUPREME COURT

tion of the state, subject to the right of
the state to control and regulate such
use. 1t further holds it is within the
constitutional prerogative of the legis-
lature, in the exercise of the police
power of the state, to minimize the op-
portunities for conflict between the
sheep and cattle industries to the ex-
tent of prohibiting sheepmen from
running their sheep on any cattle range.
In the Owyhee county case the de-
PENDANTS were found guilty in the pro-
bate court. On appeal to the district
court the judgment was affirmed
through the verdict of guilty by jury
and from this an appeal was taken.
In the Custer county case the defend
ants were found guilty in the justice
court and appealed. Judge Stevens
granted the motion of the defendants
to dismiss the case in the district court
and from this order an appeal was
taken.
SectlOn OF Law involved.
Section 1927, the constitutionality of
which was involved in both cases. is
as follows:
Any person owning or having
charge of sheep, who herds, grazes or
pastures the same, or permits or suf-
fers the same to be herded, grazed or
pastured, on any cattle range pre-
viously occupied by cattle, or upon any
range usually occupied by any cattle
grower, either as a spring, summer or
winter range for his cattle, is>guilty of
a misdemeanor; but the priority of pos
sessory right between cattle and sheep
owners to any range, is determined by
the priority in the usual and customary
use of such range, either as a cattle or
sheep range.
What Court Says.
Passing on the issues involved the
court says in part:
"Individuals engaged in the sheep
industry are not entitled to claim that
the same legislative restrictions and
privileges be applied to that industry
as to rival industries, such as the horse
or cattle industry. The habits and
nature of these animals being differ
ent, as well as the results which follow
from their use of land for grazing pur-
poses, it is competent for the legisla-
ture to take these differences into con-
sideration and to provide for them by
regulations designed to meet existing
conditions in each particular industry.
When the law under consideration
treats all individuals of the class of
sheep men alike under similar circum-
stances and conditions, both as regards
the privileges conferred and the liabili-
ties imposed, it is not class or special
legislation, and is not obnoxious to the
provisions of Section /, Article | of the
state constitution. 49,
Priority of possession or priority of
right, or the first in time is the first
in right, are all common, ordinarily,
every day expressions and have well
defined meaning. The. priority of right
to the use of the range as between
cattle and sneep owners, depends upon
the prior use in the usual and custom
ary manner The character
and area of cattle range are to be
determined by it's priority of use in the
usual and customary manner as such. -
