Long Standing Grudge Results 10
Death Of viii Davis.
SALOON KEEPER WOUNDED
Trag edy the Outcome Of a separation
Between Man and Wife~Thirty
Shots Were Fired.

Mr.. A. L. Hale OF Grantsvllle, has
Just returned from q visit TO friends
ana relatives in Star valley Wyoming
He says there have been exciting times
IN the valley recently. Last Saturday
evening a lively shooting ARRAY oe-
cured which resulted in the death of
one participant, young WIN Davis, and
the serious woundlng Of another John
Merrill. a saloon keeper. About 80
shots were fred and the wonder Is that
no more were killed,
The shooting occurred at John Mer-
rlls saloon and grew out Of a family
quarrel some time ago George Lem
mon and hls wife, who is young Da-
Wis sister, separated and agreed to
divide the children, he to take the boy
and she to take the little girl. The wo-
man was not satisfied with this ar
rangement and had made several un-
successful attempts. with the aid OF
her brother Win, TO kidnap the little
boy and take him away with her 10
her people In the Big Horn country.
In the hope probably OF better sue
cess IN another attempt she remained
in Alton, working with her sister IN
Merrilpa saloon on the day q the
shooting young Davis rode w 20 Mer-
nlrs place and found Lennon. his
brother in-law. there and a quarrel en-
sued. In % minutes the shooting be-
gan Lennon and Merrill on one side,
armed with rifles. and Davis with a
pistol on the other Davis stood behind
his horse while his assailants were sta
toned behind the corner Of the saloon.
Davis was shot IN the leg and bled 10
death. Merrill was shot In both arms,
but Lennon was unhurt. Seeing her
brother shot down and believing that
her husband had murdered him Mrs.
Merrill procured double barreled
shotgun and would have made short
work Of Lennon, had not bys.anders
wrenched the gun from her. Both
barrels were discharged In the scutile
Sheriff James went in from Evanston
and took Lennon into custody Both
Lennon and Merrill are former resi-
dents OF Cache valley.
MIR Hale reports the people In and
around Alton as prosperous and thrift
~. The grain and hay crops are good,
and the ranges for stock are in fine
condition. As the government has
greatly enlarged the forest reserves, the
sheepmen are Tramped for room TO
range their sheep and consequently are
not doing so well though the settlers
are highly elated In having their grass
near the settlements protected from the

The grounds set forth In the demur-
rer are as follows:
F.rst-Th0t the court has no iulisdic-
ton of the subject of the action for
the reason that there is no law author
ling salt Lake city 10 collect polltaN-
ts
Scooud-That the plantif has no la-
eal capacity to sue for the reason that
there is no provision Of law authorizing
Sal Lake city municipal corporation
to collect polltaxes.
Third That there Is defect or mis-
iolnior Of parties plaintiff In this
That Peter ). COndie, as street SUI
peryisor Of salt Lake CITY, has no ca
pacity TO sue for poltaXes. and cannot
Join with Salt Lake city, q municipal
corporation, as parties plaintiff.
F0grth-The complaint in said action
does mot state facts sufficient to con-
stitute cause Of action,
The principal contention of the attor.
neys for the defense was that the poll
tax ordinances was repealed by the
Revised Statutes Of 1898. and a new
provision MAS made granting the city
the power 20 provide means Of col
lecting Toe polltax The city has never
taken advantage OF this power and has
not since the repeating of the poltak
ordinance, passed another one, hence
since that time no polltax ordinance
has been In effect This contention.
Judge Tanner today upheld, and the
question is whether or not the appel
late court win sustain him in his de-
cislon.
