MURDER IN HIS HEART.
A Piute Indian, slayer of 10 whites, FL
naily Bites the Dust.

Kingman, Ariz.. May l5-Ahvote. the
Piute Indian, who has In the last three
days murdered no less than 10 white
men, Is dead. He met his fate at the
hands of members OF his own tribe. who
were compelled by the miners In I'll
Dorado canyon to trail the murderer
to his death, the penalty for their fall
ure To do so being fixed at the annihi-
lation OF every Piute the miners could
reach. Eight years ago a brother of All
vote, who a few days ago murdered sew
eral white men. killed a mail rider. The
whites demanded that the murderer be
killed and Ahvote was ordered by the
tribe to kill him and bring back con-
vincing proof that he had executed the
order. He brought I'm one toe and a part
OF an ear. but the whites said he must
bring better proof. Two days after
wards he brought the head OF his
brother.
Since that time Ahvote has been mo-
rose and sullen and lived apart from
the tribe. Three days ago he took a
rife and killed Lars Franzen and Ben
Jones. teamsters; Christian Nelson and
Charles Monaghan, miners; Judge J, NJ.

killings were all cold blooded butcher

RADIO canyon and told the Piutes that II
they did not bring in or kill Ahvote
they would kill every Piute they could
reach. Six Piutes Immediately took the
trail and followed Il to the places
where his victims were killed. From
side To side Of the Colorado river went
Ahvote on his pilgrimage OF murder.
The Indians followed him down the
river. found where he had made his last
landing and trailed him 10 miles up the
canyon into the mountains, where they
crept up and shot him as he was going
over the range. An Indian went to the
river and signalled To John Appel. who
was going down the stream In a boat
with the body OF Monaghan to come
here. He tied up his boat and went with
the Indians and viewed the body Of All
vote.

EVERYTHING LOVELY
And the Farmers Elevator As
ISOLATION Goes Smoothly on.
A Complete Organization Effected
and Officers Elected.

The Farmers Elevator ASSOCIATION
met last Saturday afternoon at
Thoele's warehouse and perfected
their organization. A large number
of shares of stock were taken, and the
few shares remaining it was thought
will be taken before next meeting.
The attendance was large and they
proceeded at once to organize. Mes
sers. r. j. Hall, L. j. Schlattman, X.
A. Linsley, Geo. Burrill, Thos. Nc
Carney, D. Mccarthy, Y, Aldrich
and G. G. Walker were appointed a
committee on bylaws and constitu-
ton, They then proceeded to elect
officers and a board of managers, who
are as follows: President, Thomas
McCanney; treasurer, L. j. Schlatt
man; board of managers, r. j. Hall,
NJ. F. Finnigan, P. F. Casey, John
Sanders, L. W. Perkins, Ed Van Horn,
Henry Hodgman, VIM. Gausman and
Louis ThoeIe.
The meeting was largely attended
and general feeling of satisfaction
prevailed among the farmers. To
Judge from the spirit and good will
with which the farmers are taking
hold of the project there is not the
least bit of doubt but what it will
be a grand success, They have come
to realize that the move is an all i'm
portant factor to their welfare and
that the success of the same depends
on the harmonious cooperation with
each other. They have selected
good, honest men as their board of
managers, and the stockholders and
farmers should have implicit faith in
them. The main success of all CO.
operative enterprises depends on har-
mony.
All parties connected with the
Farmers Elevator association are
honest and conscientious and will
look after each others interest as we'll
as their own, therefore they are prac
tically assured of success.
The meeting adjourned for two
weeks. to July 10, at the same place,
when the bylaws, constitution, ETC.,
will be adopted and other arrange
ments completed.

Communication.
.itor of the TRIBUNE:

To the Editor of the TRIBUNE:
referring to my letter in the TRIB-
UNE of the 10Th inst, will add the
following; It appears that there is a
mistake in the interior department as
to the way they are handling the in
demnity land cases. I think [ have
found the mistake. Parties made APP
plication under the presumption laws
and were afterwards informed that
they had better apply under the
homestead laws. Knowing that the
presumption laws were repealed, it
seems that in the cases of Crowley,
Ole Lofthus and Adrian Peterson,
they did make new applications I'M
der the homestead law. Adrian Pc
terson, VIM. Dablow and Ole Lofthus
made their second application thru
me, while the three Crowleys made
theirs thru T. F. Young of Benson.
It seems that the interior department
is acting on the first application. If
so, what will they do with the home
stead entries properly on file with
satisfactory proof as to residence and
Improvements, Petersons and others
having resided on their claims thir-
teen years and over and have i'm
proyements Of from $1,000 to $1,000
on each $50 acres.
Lofthus informed me that his entry
was not followed up. To that [ adj
smitFin his presumption application,
but. it was appealed in the homestead
entries Of Dablow, Lofthus and Peter
son, and / am quite certain that T. F.
Young made his appeal for the
Crowleys. If what is written is
proven to be true, l can see no reason
why the approval to the railroad COM
pany for these lands cannot be thrown
overheard.
Respectfully yours,
K. J. HUsEvoLD, Agent.

Indemnity Case.

A good deal of interest was mani
fest in the case tried at Appleton last
Wednesday in the matter of the hear
ing called before the United States
court commissioner in the case Of
Swenson VS.. Russell Sage involving
indemnity land in Stevens county,
and wherein it is charged that the
case was collusiyely brought in the
interest of Russell Sage for the pur-
pose Of railroading thru the courts
the aforesaid case and securing a
decision favorable to Sage and fore
stalling defenses by the settlers. The
above hearing was ordered by the
supreme court of the United States
for the express purpose of inquiring
into the bona fides of that case. The
evidence taken was all in the interest
of the settlers, and intended to estab-
lish the fact of collision, and that
Knight, who had made affidavit in
the case pending in the supreme court
that he was not agent, and never had
been, for Russell Sage ct al, but
rather posed as champion for the
dear farmer in securing relinquish-
ment for the settler. At the hearing,
Knight was proved to be beyond
questioning the agent of Russell Sage,
and it is quite probable that Uncle
Sam will take vigorous steps against
Knight for his connection in this mat
ter. The parties accused Of bad faith
made no appearance at the hearing.
There were, perhaps, 200 of the vic
TINS of Knight, Clayton ct al. in the
interest of Sage, present and ready
to testify as to the nefarious act of
the gang working in the interest of
Sage.
The impression is that the charge
Of collision will be established and
the Swenson case reversed. The case
was tried by United States Attorney
E. G. Stringer of St. Paul before H.
G. Spencer, court commissioner. Sew
eral prominent attorneys were pres
ent, among them was G. L. Shelley of
this place.
