shooting William Cox at the Barry
ranch last fall was commenced in
the district court at HALEY last
Saturday. The case went to the
jury Monday evening and that body
rendered verdict of acquittal. Mr..
Cox is in a pitiful conditional.

the cause which led to the shooting
the facts are Wilson was working
Mr.. Barry's ranch on shares, and
when it came to a settlement dis
pute arose regarding the division
Of hay. Cox, who was assisting
Mr.. Barry in hauling away his por.
ton Of the hay, also took q band
in the dispute and championsd the
cause of the latter. Threats and
harsh words were INDUCED in when
finally Cox made bluff at Wilson
which the latter called. Result:
a charge of duckshot landed in the
face of Cox.

The Sheep Nuisance.

A public meeting occurred in
Metropolitan Hall little over q
week ago to discuss the sheep ques.
ton, and in compliance with re.
quests personally made by several
citizens, Mark Moody, the represent.
alive of Fred Gooding, was at the
meeting. The sentiment of the peo-
pie present was somewhat mixed on
that occasion, one faction standing
on the proposition that the sheep
should be required to pass up the
road through ketchum to the north
side of Lake creek, and another
being in favor of pursuing a more
conciliatory course. Questions we're
addressed to Mr.. Moody and be
answered them in very agreeable
manner and assured the meeting
that he did not blame the town for
standing up for its rights in the
matter of range for town stock,
pure water, etc., and even agreed
positively to keep the sheep under
his charge off the prescribed prem
ises, provided he be permitted to
pass through beyond q distance Of
about four miles from town on the
east. This proposition was siren
uously objected to by the ultra rad
ical members of the meeting, but
the conciliatory faction seemed to
prevail and the committee previ-
ously appointed was continued with
authority to exercise their own
judgment in making suitable ar
rangements with Mr.. Moody and
others for passing sheep on through
to the north side of Lake creek. A
route was selected east of the Elk
horn mine over the hills to the
northern limit of the reserve, and
this was accepted BY Mr.. Moody as
entirely satisfactory and the matter
settled by his promise to drive the
sheep that way and not in any man.
ner interfere with the range reserved
for town stock. With this the
committee rested.
1t now transpires, however, that
in return for the concessions made
by the people, they have been en-
tirely ignored and all promises
made at that time by Mr.. Moody
absolutely disregarded. At least so
it is reported. If this is the case
Mr.. Moody is certainly not the man
We had estimated him. A disregard
for promises made upon honor for
the sake Of avoiding interference by
the citizens is certainly an evidence
of bad faith, to say the least.
and if the sheep men are going to
treat all their negotiations with the
citizens in this manner, there is bu,
one course for the people to pur
sue, and that is to have no further
parley in this matter whatever, but
give them q reasonable time to quit
the forbidden premises and then,
if they fail to comply, proceed to
remove them by such means as
may become necessary under the

Joe Oldham died at the Blackfoot
Asylum Friday, June 18th, from
softening of the brain. Two years
ago the deceased was taken to the
asylum. His condition then was
such as to give rise to the belief
that be would shortly regain his
mental equilibrium. But the unfor-
tunate man did not improve. For
some time past he failed rapidly
and a week before his death it was
known that he could not last long.
Joel B. Oldham was born in Ken
lucky in 1882, but removed with his
parents to Missouri when a child.
He went to California in 1849 to
search for gold, and 1862 found him
mining at Florence, Idaho. He
went to Idaho City in 1868, were he
engaged in the hotel business until
the fire of 1857 burnt him out, after
which he located in Boise City. He
was sheriff of Ada county three
times, having been elected the last
time in 1890. Prior to 1890 he was
engaged in business at HALEY. Poor
Joe; be was brave, generous and
kind, and had many friends who
regret the sad ending of his liie
His remains were taken to Boise
for interment. The funeral took
place Sunday under the auspices
of the Masonic order.
