Revive Old Coatrover.y.
' Attorney General Prout will tomorrow ad'
vance some reasons to the supreme court
why the report of the referee in the case
of the State against the Union Pacific Rail
road company should not be sccepted. At
torney Oenersl Smyth brought suit daring
his term against the company for $610,000
as penalties for violations of the maximum
freight rate law. The referees reported
that the atate had no case because the

valid. The attorney general take the
ground that the law can be executed, by
the courts in the same manner as tbey en

or order of a board of transportation. The
question to be determined, he says, Is
whether the rates chsrged were reasonable
or not.

DEFENDS FENCING OF LAND
Omaha Mia Takes la.ae with Dee Cor
respondent on the Fencing
Proposition.
OMAHA, Dec. 1. To the Editor of The
Bee: Some days ago I noticed an article
published in The Bee and given consider
able prominence, said article being signed
by one C. C. Campbell of Mullen, Neb., and
severely criticising the Omaha Commercial
club for its resolution relating to fences
on government land.
Being somewhat interested In this mat
ter through a know-ledger of conditions ex
isting In that section I was surprised to
see such a letter from any one living In the
sand hills country and purporting to re
flect the general sentiment of that com
munity. I therefore .wrote to a prominent
merchant at Mullen for information as to
this man Campbell. The following Is his
reply:
"Referring to your Inquiry of November
22 as to C. C. Campbell ot this place in
regard to the open letter ol his to Tho
Bee criticising the action of the Omaha
Commercial club relating te fences on gov
ernment land. He is a young man with
neither horses nor cattle. It will be a se
vere blow to cattle interests here if such
order Is enforced. Cattle and range will
both deteriorate and cattle borrowers wi'i
have a hardship entailed upon them to
place their paper. Since this agitation
commenced little improvement has been
made on the ranches."
This Is a fair sample of the class of
knockers who are hammering away on this
fence question. I am of the opinion (.hat
so far ss the sand hills country Is con
cerned no one can BRk tor the fences to
come down, unless from personal animus
or other Ignorance ot existing conditions
in that section.
The sand bills country Is a vast extent
of Immense sand mounds or hills upon
which no farming can be done, and on
which the only vegetation that will grow
Is a sparse coating of coarse grass, f.-om
fifteen to twenty acres of which Is neces
sary to support one animal through a sea
son.
Between these bills are small fertile val
leys of limited extent, in which alfalfa and
other" "hay Crops may be grown. These val
leys are of value only as an adjunct to the
growing and feeding ot. stock, except in
cases where Irrigation is possible, and
these valleys are all owned by the stock
men.
The hills of sand surrounding these val
leys are government land, and being of ab
solutely no value except for grazing pur
poses by those owning adjacent valleys.
there can be no good reason for any one
objecting to their being used by or leased
to the smaller stockmen, who now own all
of the available hay and farm land.
It Is an entirely different proposition
from what it would be in most other parts
of the country. The cattlemen are not try

are torn down which connect the various
valleys and incidentally fence in a few
worthless sand hills, it will Inevitably re
suit In a less number of cattle, the de
preclatlon of the quality of the herds and
a general hardship to the smaller ranch
men who have during the past tew years
built up a valuable industry in the for
merly worthless sand hills. Yours truly
