A repl'ca of one of the great cattle drives of the early days is a striking sight Here is, perhaps one of the great- est of all Zane Grey tales, produced as is fitting such a story, with a cast that approaches perfection.

The story of The Rambler and “Miss” is told in “The Ridin’ Kid From Powder River,’ Hoot Gibson's Universal production now being shown in the Iris theater. The story is one of thrilling adventure, Hoot having the part of a cowboy who rides the countryside seeking the slayer of his foster father. It is in this search that he encounters “Miss,” and, later her father, an un- regenerate ruler of a lot of gun men who make his saloon at Wilcat their rendezvous and haven from the law.

BUFFALO HERD 5 INCREASED G. H. West, representing the Mon- tana National Bison range fs a vist- tor in Casper where he has disposed of part of this year’s kill of nation- ally protected buffalo. Mr. West has been associated with this branch of the department of the interior for several years and has watched the northern herd grow from 41 buffalo in 1909 when the range was first opened to more than 700, the present total. Each year some of the buf- falo are killed to make room for the new born calves, This meat is sold to the public through established agencies in the various communities. It is an interesting fact that in 1924, 149 calves were born in the Montana herd. For the past five years the number of male calves and the number of females has been identical. In a few dry years before 1919, the nun of female calves born slightly « Y-*led the males.

Upon this showing, accompanied by the record of that part of the depos tions taken before the qommissioner in Canada counsel for the plaintiff now ask a further continuance. “Another ground for the motion for a continuance is, that the plain- tiff has been unable to secure’ the testimony of one James E .O'Neill and one H.

Blackmer, whom it is expected, will give testimony rele- vant to the issues in the cause, on account of their being in a foreign country. “still another ground of the mo- tion for continuance is that counsel for the plaintiff have received the disclosure of other facts which they belleve will develop proofs vital to plaintiff's cause. “It need only to the last-menti it affords no basis continuance. “As to the witnesses O'Neill and satisfied be sa‘ in relation ned ground, that whatever for a Binckmer, the rule is not in that there no attempt to dis- close in a specific way what it ts expected that these witnes: testify to 'f their testimony secured and therefore, under the rule, this should not be held sut- ficlent to justify the court in grant ing the motion. “As to the show ng concerning the testimony of the witnesses in Can- ada, 4 different and somewhat diffi- cult and complfeated situation pre- sents itself, The question of the materiality, relevancy and compe- tency of the testimony sought is eventually of course determinable by thls court. The proceedings be fore the commiss ofier disclose that such questions of materiality, rele- vancy and competency are reserved by stipulation of the parties to be determined by the court upon the trial. In addition to this, manifest- ly, the court would be in no position at this time and upon a motion for a cont nuance, to determine ques tions so vital to the merits of the controversy. f “In the consideration: of this phase of the case from the stand- point of a law suit, full faith and credit must be given to the theory of the plaintiff and the attempt¥ of counsel to secure testimony through authorized channels to establish that theory as set forth in its bill, Only 'n a general way can the court be familiar at this time with the gen- eral purposes of plaintiff's cause and defendants’ defenses to the same. From the casual observation this court assumes that a certain lense between the plaintiff and de- fendant is challenged and sought to be’ set aside, first upon the ground that there was no law authorizing it, and second upon the ground that it or'ginated In and was consummat- ed by a conspiracy on the part of certain officials of the defendant companies and an official of the United States government having the matter of leasing certain govern: ment lands then in hand Upon this the eviden sought latter theor: from the Canadian ould purport to reveal oor ansac- tions between off cinls of the dofen- dant companies and the government official. which would tend to show the indirect distribution of moneys or securities between the consumma- tion of the lease in controversy and thereby tending to support the ce of conspiracy “The main difficulty in disposing of this motion ts that, while this court must determine the material: ity, relevancy or competency of the testimony sought of the witnesses in Canada, that matter can not now be determined by this court, and as to the matter of right of those wit- nesses to refuse to answer the ques- tions asked of them by counsel for pla'ntiff upon the ground that the answers would result in the disclo- sure of privileged and confidential communications, this court can not in 4 determine, for the reason that the witnesses are beyond the jurisdic: tion of the court.

Furthermore, this court does not construe the deposi- tions as going so far as to demon- strate an exhaustion of the witnes- ses’ knowledge or recollection on material points. While the point in- volved is somewhat complicated, this court {s of the opinion that the matter of whether the witnesses should be required to answer the questions propounded by counsel for, the government should, as before stated, be decided by the Canadian courts, as no decision of this court upon that point would be binding persuasive upon the Canadian proceed accord- courts, which will ing to their own interpretat’on of the law, in the matter of compelling witnesses to answer questions when refusal {s based upon the ground of privileged and confidential com- munications.
