Kdltnr Herald - Dr. .Morrymun In
troduced the hill, which you referred
to in Iiihi fvcnliiK'H Hornld, at tho re
finest of the Cattle and HorHo Qrow
ern' Association of Klamath County.
He hint not championed tho measure,
mid It is up to tho legislature on it
inerltH It would bo a Rreat stato of
affaira if our reprusentatlvo would
Hint have to secure the consent of
any faction before IntrodticinR any
ineiiHiire
As to tliu ii"HUro Itxt'lf ami Ita,
i merits. It is a fact that it will pot af
feet any sheep owner who Ih In tho
county on a legitimate basis. Tho
hheep man who leases his own range.
who purchases feed for w'rtor use,
and feeds In Klamath County, will
suffer no hardships thru the passage
of this hill. Il Is thu tramp bands
that move thru Klamath County,
grazing as they romu nml go, that
are never placed on tho tax roll, that
Ihimi in the past been herded over
private IiiiiiIh without authority, and
up to the very doorways of tho
homesleiider, that have caused tho
damage. Tho legitimate sheen man
provides himself with rungs mil does
not attempt to wnnder about tho
country
This is not an attempt to throttlo
snoop nuslness at nil, but Is intended
to protect tho man who Is endeavor
ing to make a home for hlmcelf and
to compol tho wundorlng hands of
sheep to go upon the snmo basis as
tho stockman who Is a roshlini of
Klamnlh County, and who pays It
taxt'H for keeping up Hi. institutions.
There nut l.sno.fluu m-ies of land

which are itv.lilablo as rtugn Only
a small portion of this Is lenaed nt
proM'iit. so thoro Is no .mmedlr.to
danger or the sheep men linlnj. put
out of business.
(Our criticism of Dr. Morrymun
was tluu to tho fact that ha introduc
ed tho hill uftor ho had promised ho
would not do so. Tho Horald had
this question up with Dr. Morrymun
mid explained to him that it had it
plan under way that woujd remove
the muse of friction between tho
sheep men and cattlemen. That plan
Is well on Its way, and wiie'i it Is in
force, there will be it responsible houd
that will look uftor tho rights or all
parties, Thorn Is no (lunjt'on nut
Uicre have been lawless practices on
the part of Home sheep men, jiitt at
there hino boon lawless practices by
ho i.o stock men, Henllzlm; this, ami
t liar it would eventually como to u:i
open fight betweon tho conflicting In
terests ,Tlio llorulil undertook to pre
vent It by mi organization that would
shoulder the responsibility nnd ropro
sent the sheepmen, It has no sym
pathy with any Injustico on tho part
of any stockman whuthor ho owns
shoop, euttlo, horsos ,or anything olso.
Kuril must render to tho othor .that
which ho demands for himself, nnd If
the sheep mon cannot do this, If they
do not rospect tho rights of crnryouo
nnd stand rundy to innko reparation
whore Injustico has boon done, then
thoro is no room for thorn In Klam
ath County, any nuia than thfio la
no room for any stockman who tokos
tho luw In his own Innds because ho
has tho powor to do It, no matter

Honild does not want to soeany In-
