The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1878-08-08

The Times-Review says: This years
crops at the Indian reservation at Duck
Valley, are a total failare. The po-
tatoes. peas. wheat and barley will not
pay for harvesting even with Indian
labor. The failure is attributed in the
main to the Indian troubles in the
north. which so demoralized the reser.
walton Piutes and Shoshoues and dis
tracted their attention that they failed
to devote the time necessary for the
proper cultivation of. the crops. One
hundred and fifty acres of wheat will
be planted this fall. which it is hoped
will yield a handsome return.

Not Guilty.

The trial of James Clark and E. Man
ming, indicted fer burglary. came
off yesterday in the District Court. The
crime alleged to have been be committed
by defendants was breaking into freight
car on the Central Pacific Railroad at
Wlnnemucc4 aud riding to Browns
Station. A case of valuable wine was
found broken up in the car and twenty
two OF the two dozsn bottles which it
contained missing. Defendants ad-
mitted that they went into the car, the
door of which was open at the time /;
but denied having stolen the wine.
District Attorney Harding and Critten-
den Thornton appeared for the prose-
cution, aud Judge Berry and A. w.
Fisk for the defense. The State failed
to prove that defendants broke open
the car or took the wine. and the jury.
after being out two hours and half,
brought in verdict of not guilty.

singular Conduct.

We are informed that band of In.
dians went to Charles McConnell's
ranch in Qnin River valley few days
ago and compelled several Piutes. who
were at work in the hay fields. to quit
and go off with them. We also learn
that some of the Indians at McDermit
are acting very strangely. 1t appears
that report has been circulated among
them that they are to be held as pris-
oners of war until arrangements are
made to move them on reservation at
Malbeur or some point in Oregon.
Those of them who have been peace.
able during the present outbreak dis
like to be sent to reservations, and, as
they express it, be treated just like the
Indians who were on the warpath.

The following is given as the language
of Judge Fawcett in sentencing one of
the men convicted of the More murder
in Ventura county, California:
IF. A. Sprague. you have been con-
victed of the highest crime known to
the law. You were skillfuhy defended
at the trial. Every device was exhaust.
ed to save you. but jury Of your fell
low citizens has pronounced you guilty
of the great crime with which you are
charged. In the dead hours of night
you, the leader of a band of masked
assassins, applied the torch to the
premises of your victim, and as he
rushed startled and half naked into the
light of the flames, you closed up on
him and shot him near to death. He
He attempted fight; you pursued; he
fell before you with pleading voice
that should have wrung pity from a
heart of iron, but you remorsessly rid
died him with bullets as You would the
carcass of dog. There is no language
strong enough to depict the atrocity of
such deed. Your guilt is as clear as
evidence can make it. You probably
thought you would be upheld by the
community in which you lived. Thank
God. You we're mistaken. There are
but few monsters to applaud your act.
The result of your trial proves that
We are still governed by law; that We
are community of enlightened human
beings and not a society Of savages.
The law has seized you. and by the
voices of twelve good men held you in
its memorable grasp to pay. the dread
full penalty of your crime. Let your
fate be warning that justice is sure to
follow. sometimes travelling slowly with
leaden heel. but striking with an iron
hand. will not affect for you a sym.
pathy do not feel There is no point
in your Case for sympathyyto grasp at.
so far as you are concerned. Tdeeply
feel for your faithful wife and children.
They are the ones who need and who
deserve the pity and sympathy of kind
hearts. 1t only remains to formally
conclude this painful duty. The judg-
ment of the Court B- that on. Friday,
the 9th day of September next, be.
tween the hours of 10 A. M. and PM,
yon are to be banged by the neck until
you are dead, and may God Almighty
have mercy upon your SOUL"
Sprague presented a stolid indiffer-
ence and perfect calmness while sen.
tence was being passed. His wife and
daughters were present and were
calm and unmoved.

CImhtV.
J.F. Burns arrived here yesterday
direct from Stein Mountain. At the
time the Indians left the Malheur res.
ervation for the warpsth, Mr.. Burns
had to fly with his family to place of
safety, leaving everything except his
wife and children and the horses which
carried them to the settlements, on his
ranch. He brought his family to Win
nemucca and then went back to White
Horse, where the settlers from the ad-
jacent country kept their most valuable
horses, and remained there until the
hostile Indians went north. He in
forms us that several ranch and cattle
owners, he being one of the number,
recently went to Stein Mountain and
Juniper Lake to see what the Indians
had done They found the remains of
four men. namely: Old man Smith
and John Smith, his son. Tom Dixon
and - Hickenson, who had been MUIR
dered by the savages. They saw the
decomposed carcases of band of fine
brood mares and of very many cattle
the red devils bad slaughtered; also the
ruins of homes which they burned. He
says cattle owners were agreeably sur.
prised, however. at finding so many of
their cattle living, as they expected the
Indians had strewn the ranges with
slaughtered animals. 1t appears they
did not care to waste their ammunition
shooting down beeves, and only killed
what they wanted to eat. He is of tue
opinion that there are yet hostile Indi-
ans in the Stein Mountain country, al
though his party did not see any.

Idaho volunteers have been chasing
the hostiles according to Bernard 8
system, and not being controlled by
Howard give them no time to plumber
settlements, and murder the inhab-
itants. The latest advices indicate
that the hostiles are dispersed by the
volunteers, and that they are sneakinz
back to their old hunting grounds in
small parties. They are supposed to
be out of ammunition as they show no
disposition to fight.
