CAN KILL Wild
RANGE HORSES
UNDER new Law

HELENA, Mont.,-W lie horse
roundups, planned under much the
same system as is used by some west
ern states for jackrabbit drives, are
being organized in several sections of
Montana under a law passed by the
last Legislature.
The law, which was hard fought
on sentimental grounds by old time
stockmen and ranchers in the legis-
lature, is designed to rid sections of
the state of the small, wild range
horses, commonly designated as cay
uses, which are considered by stock
men as utterly worthless.
Under the law county commission
ers, upon sufficient petition, may des-
ignate a roundup foreman, who or
ganizes the drive, impounds the horses
gathered, records their brands if any
and cause the publication of a notice
under which may redeem such
stock as they wish by payment of a
small fee. The remainder are des-
troyed.
There is a market for about 5000
head of these horses annually. They
are bought by an eastern concern to
be slaughtered and the choice pieces
of the meat prepared for export.
Fertilizer and dog food are by-pro-
ducts.

J. D. Woodruff Dies

live all his tribe" and had he not
contracted the influenza with result
ing complications it is probable that
he would have made his boast good.
]. D. Woodruff was born in De-
cember of 1874 at Bonus, Illinois,
near Chicago, the son of John and
Lucinda Woodruff. Shortly after the
Civil Wan he came west to what was
then the territory of Wyoming, and
was engaged in several campaigns a.
gainst the hostile Indian tribes. He
lived the rugged life of a prospector
and has prospected over much of the
territory in what is now Fremont
county. He is believed to discover
Wind River canyon, through which
the Burlington railroad and the yell
lowstone highway have been built,
while prospecting in what is now
known as Copper mountain.
In company with Tom Hood, now
of Casper, Mr.. Woodruff brought the
first band of sheep into Wyoming,
and is considered by all the pioneers
as the father of the sheep industry
in this the greatest wool state in the
union.
For almost 60 years Nh. Woodruff
has been closely associated with the
business and social life of Wyoming.
He was senator in the first state lag
islature, being elected to represent
Fremont county in the states first
lawmaking body. He has since serv-
ed several terms in the lower house,
where his good judgement and home
ly philosophy on the things OF life
made him an outstanding figure.
During the 1923 session he created
nationwide interest by introducing
a resolution to prevent all members
from voting on the question of pro-
hibition who were known to have TAX
en- a drink of liquor during their term
of office. His contention was that to
be good citizens and to live up to
their oath of office that they SHOULD
vote as they drank" and that "to

sheep business, and has since kept
all his interest in thisestate.
According to Coutant's history of
Wyoming, Mr.. Woodruff was among
the first to investigate the reported
gold fields at South Pass in 1869. He
was at that time engaged as a hunter
at Fort Laramie, and being invited to
go with some parties to investigate
the new gold fields, accepted the in
vitation. He did not remain long, yet
he saw enough to induce him to re-
turn a year or two latter, when he be-
came a permanent resident of what is
now Fremont county. Since that
time he has been prominent in bust
ness and public affairs in that part of
the state. His life work has been
closely connected with the develop
ment of the territory of Wyoming, the
state, the county of Fremont and the
city of Lander, where he was a resi-
dent for many years.
Mr.. Woodruff was by nature a
pioneer and a builder, and what he has
accomplished is closely interviewer :
with the history of the state.
Despising hypocrisy and pretense in
whatever form found, Mr.. Woodruff
was one of the finest characters the
old west ever produced. He was a
fluent and entertaining writer on
many subjects, ad had his health not
failed him it was his ambition to col
laborate in writing a novel built a
round the early history of the state.

tirnony at jury trials is com.
paratively recent.
This phase of court procedure has
developed only in the present cen.
tury. During the nineteenth century
many insane persons were submitted
to the same punishments as were
sane criminals.
The tendency in later years has
been to increase the range OF evi.
dence. Whereas a few years ago only
insanity recognizable by the laymen
had been admissible in evidence, to.
day finer distinctions as to this evi.
depce has been made. 1t is now
the rule that almost anything af.
fecting the mental state of an &C.
cused person may be admitted.
This ruling has made the way for
defenses that would not be coun-
tenanced under the head of insanity.
yet which are essentially medical in
import.
GLAND DEFENSE LATEST
The endocrine gland defense is
perhaps the latest medical de.
tense. The future may see many
criminal cases turned over to doc
tors for final Judgment.
The growth Of the scope OF ad-
MISSILE evidence some lawyers
think, may cause a revision of our
entire judicial system.
The introduction Of highly tech
meal testimony, some Of which doc.
tors cannot assimilate after years Of
study. makes it at many times inn
possible to obtain a jury that can
understand the evidence. Fine shad.
ings OF mental conditions, only
within the mental grasp Of doctors
who have spent years of specialized
study, it cannot be expected, are
within the ken of the average man.
And after ell, 1t is the average man
who finds his way into the complete
jury. Many lawyers avoid the too
intelligent person. The juror whom
the lawyers personality is fitted to
sway is what the average counselot
desires when prosecuting or defend
ing client.
REFORMS MAY COME
We may yet see the day when
mans guilt is determined by Judge
and a small corps Of advisers, Sc
lected because OF their special knowl-
edge, 1t may be expected that in a
case involving glandular disorders
chat the advisers be men who are
specialists in that branch of science.
Other cases may call for advisers
skilled in auditing, others, advisers
Of great chemical knowledge.
Any changes in the present jury
system are certain to bring protests.
The jury system has become an in.
stitution closely allied with the idea
Of freedom In Anglo-Saxon countries.
The present system, however. is
in itself a development of thousands
Of years Of strife between man and
man. ITS precursor was>trial by or.
deal.
Trial by ordeal consists of the de.
termination of the guilt or innocence
Of the accused by the influence Of
God, made known to mortals by lot
or the success or failure Of certain
experiments
