Rdnchers May Kill
Come If Ddmuqinq

Landowners may kill game
out of season and get away
with it if they can prove that
their property was damaged,
according to a decision by the
state supreme court in the case
the fish and game department
brough against C. R. Rathbone
of Augsta. Rathbone was found
guilty in district court on a
charge of killing elk out of
season and was fined 5000. The
supreme court reversed the YER
dict when Rathbone appealed.
The high courts decision was
hinged on the assertion that
Rathbone had not been given a
chance to prove to the district
court jury that elk from the
Sun river herd had damaged
his pastures and fences. In
district court Rathbone pleaded
guilty to the charge. He had
advertised previously in the
Great Falls Tribune for ma
chine gunners to kill the elk
on his ranch.
