The next case tried was one that doesn't

which T. A. Archer was foreman, found q
verdict of guilty. and Barney O'DonneH
was sentenced to pay fine Of $25 and be

An exchange truly says landowners

We notice this is. being advocated by the
leading agricultural papers, and it would
no doubt be step in the right direction,
as there are many old people now, who
will soon pass away, that know the lines
and corners of land by old surveys. To
get their assistance in this matter might
save much trouble and perhaps litigation
in the future.

ROBERT RAY NILTON'S DEATH.
THERE is RUMOR BUT ABSOLUTELY NO
PROOF THAT He Is ALIVE.


PROOF THAT HE Is ALIVE.
Some people seem bent on showing that Robert Rav
Hamilton is alive and diligently at work SEEKING
out facS 10 >ubstantate their assertion Thus far
actual evidence has been produced TO prove that
he was no. drowned in Snake River but run0rs are
plentiful nevertheless. The latest one quotes pr
son who i, said to have been an intimate and lifelong
friend of Mr. lIamlton's saving that he i, alive
ard in good health. in sydney. New South Wales,
where he has began life under Assumed name.
This friend is said to have been Mr. lIamilt0ns
assocla from childhood. and to be officer in the
United states Navy who has recently distinguished
himself by discovering the true source of the Gulf
Stream.
This officer, it is further declared stood by Mr.
Hamir on in his trouble with Eva Mann. and cor
responded with him when Mr.. Hamilton moved 10
mis- ranch I'm Idaho. The friend is said to have re
cevcd letter from Hamilton dated few day, before
the tins when the lat 'cr iS believed TO have been
drowned, In which was this passage:
You may hear something That will surprise Won.
If leave here suddenly, it will be for reasons best
known 10 myself This man is said 10 have
reved several letters from Hamilton since the latter
is supposed TO have died.
