STATUS OF OLD
STOCK TRAIL To
BE Determined
COURT FIGHT
Former Governor Carey
To Testify Before End
OF Case Contested by
Entry and Stockmen.

Pioneer history of Wyo-
ming, and Natrona county in
particular, is being unfolded
in all it's picturesque details
today in the eighh district
court as oldtimers of this part
OF the country testify in the famous
Bishop VS.. Hawley case which is to
decide the legality of the open stock
trail in Wyoming. Former Governor
Robert E. Carey Is expected to be a
witness in tho case today or tomor-
row.
The case was instituted following
tho building of a fence across the
Goose Egg trail, which runs from
NCadoma dipping and steering pens to
Emigrant Gap. The fen~e was built
on the homestead of Robert Hawley
about three miles south of Cadoma.
The plaintiff NJ. l.. Bishop, after
whom the railroad station of Bishop
was named, filed n petition asking
that the fence be abated as # OBJ
structed the trail and suffered hard
ship on the stockmen who used It.
Through this petition. which is
more or less in the nature of n friend
ly suit. the stockmen hope to keep
open the old time stock trails. be
come because of long usage almost
similar to our state highways.
The defendant represents the home
steaders in general who are fighting
the issue on the ground that the stock
owners have no right to trail across
their patented property.
Thomas Cooper. who has been IN
his part OF the country for the last
as years. was one of the most inter
eating witnesses to he called. He
testified that the trail in question.
known under various names in the
intervening time, had been in almost
constant use during his long years
fof residence here. He said 1t was the
only means OF trailing stock from
Emigrant Gap and hat It had been
used regular for cattle and sheep.
Other long time residents who testi-
fled were Dan Speas, Rasmus Lee and
oddmund Josendahl.
The case is OF unusual interest TO
the Wyoming woolgrowers' associa-
ton and Marvin l.. Bishop. Jr.. is
acting as counsel for the association
assisting Purcell, Casey & Perkins,
which firm is handling the case for
the stockmen. w. II. Patten is the
counsel for tho homesteaders.

for a world court OF arbitrat justice
and added:
II believe in keeping the faith. II
political parties do not mean what

OF the United States entering the

Mr.. Harding made It plain that he
did not consider the world court CUES

he hold it a menace to party unity,
