DENVER, Colo., Feb. $.—The state of Colorado has asked leave to file a brief in the United States circuit court of appeals at St. Louis opposing an absolute transportation monopoly in the Rocky Mountain National park, Attorney General Keyes announced today. The action is in connection with the appeal of Charlies Robbins of Estes Park, Colo., from the decision of Federal Judge Lew of Denver. A federal injunction was issued by Judge Lewis restraining Robbins from hauling passengers in the park. The! Siven to a candidate for president of Rocky Mountain Parks Transporta- tion company has a government con- tract under which it has exclusive privilege to haul passengers for hire in the park. In the brief which the state will fle, if leave is granted, it will set forth that the citizens of the state should not be deprived of certain rights in the park, Keyes said. It will show, he said, t some citi- zens had held propert in the park Jong before it was a park and that they should not be deprived of the privilege of hauling passengers there. He aiso said that the brief would state that the rear in the park had cost the citizens © the state thou- sands of dollars in taxes and that it was not right to prevent th JOHN L. LEWIS IS RE-ELECTED MINERS’ CHIEF (By. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 4— Official canvass of the recent yote cast for officers of the United Mine Work- ers of America, completed here today, showed the re-election of John L. Lewis as president by a majority of 66,730 votes, over Robert H. Harlin of Washington state. Philip Murray, vice president, also was re-elected, de- feating Alexander Howatt by 11,700 William Green was unopposed for re-election as _secretary-treasurer. More than 300,000 of the half mil- lion members of the miners’ union voted at the election held December 14, last, in the coal fields throughout the United States and Canada. ‘Vhe exact vote received by the candidates Was not announced, pending a verifl- cation of the canvass, which it was said may show minor changes. “The majority fo. p” said a statement issued at the internation- nl headquarters, “is the largest ever the miners’ union. Harlin for presi- dent and Howatt for vice president, had the unlimited support of the rad- ical element inside and outside* the union which sought to gain control of the organization.” Military Ring in Mexico City Is Broken Up MEXICO CITY, Feb. 4.—More than fifty members of an alleged “military ring” have been arrested in this city as a result of the discovery of forgeries and the alteration of im- portant documents in the war depart- ment.

Feb. 4.—Tiat Wyoming ckman, a “herd law,” is the pur- bests of Senate File 59, introduced by Senator Kirk of Goshen county, and consigned by President Daley to the more or less tender mercies of the standing committee on stock raising ‘and stock laws. A Dill of the same purport has appeared in each recent Wyoming legislature only to be re- Jegated to that borne from which no bill, good or bad, returneth. ‘Tho re- legating was done quietly if possible but riotously if necessary. Which proceduro will be necessary with the Kirk measure remains to be deter- mined, but it appears to be a fair to middlingly justiflable prophecy that it will be relegated regardless. That as it may be, the herd law bill is bound to continue cropping up in Wyoming legislatures until such a bill blossoms and burgeons into a full-blown, duly enacted restriction on the immemo- rial habit of range stock straying where it listeth, That may be, two years from now, it may be four years, it may be iater than that, but event- ually Wyoming will have a herd law. Several immemorial Wyoming cus- toms, you may recollect, have been shunted into the discard since the ttlement of the range began a few » bill provides that the gualified per cent of the tax- yers of 65 per cent the electors (not 6: payers or the pi of the taxes), residing within boundaries of a district wherein they deem it desirable that a herd law should be in effect, petition the bourd of county commissioners to establish @ herd district within the boundaries specified, and certain other collateral procedure is gone through with, the county commissioners forthwith shall declare such district established, and that thereafter it shall be unlawfal for sident ‘cattle or horses to be at large within the limits of su district.” The qualification “resident” is used advisedly further pr that “this apply +o or ty be lawful- Sera | of a which may stray within the limits of such district. but all such animals straying within the limits of the district may be, by any resident of the district. driven in @ reasonable manner for a distance of not more than two miles outside the boundary lines thereof.” The bill provides for appeal from prder of the board of county commis- sioners establishing a herd district, this appeal to the district court in conformity as nearly as may be “to the procedure in appeals from the al- Jowance or disallowance by a board ef county commissioners of claims against the county.” The Kirk bill places no Umitations on the size of a herd district In- sofar as the bill's restrictions extend, the district might include u section, a township or a whole county. In regard to what shall’ happen when a district has been established the bill ways: “Whenever a herd district shall have been established it shall be un- lawful to permit cattle or horses to be at Is within the lraits of such district. Any person or corporation injured in property by the violation of this act may ver from the own- er or from the person responsible for the custody of such animals, the amount of actual damage so sustain- ed, and for the enforcement of such claims may take any trespassing ani- mals into custody and retaf until such damages and ..| district boundary beards, forth in Section 7 thereof, “is to re- establish the common law with 16- spect to trespassing animals within the limits of a herd district,” axcept where specific provision otherwiso is made by the bill.
