The desired action was based on a |decision rendered by William B. Wall, state attorney general who held that the sheep which were returned to the Wyoming ranges were really imported animals. M. W. Purcell, county attorney, re- fused to take action against Natrona county wool men to establish a pre- cedent on the case or force the case to a decision in the supreme court be cause he held that in any event it would work a nafdship on the already overtaxed stock interests and that the imponition of a penalty of any kind would be an injustice to sheep men who were only technically guilty of law violations and this offense transpired before there was a legal ruling on the law. Standing pat on this.decision Mr. Purcell so informed the board of sheep commissioners and today his office was informed that his decision had been accepted by thisstate board ang that no action was. contemplated 1 cases where the offense antedated the legal decision of Mr. Wall.
