kicking stunt. 1t is not believed that
this will end the trouble. however, IT'S
rumors are atloat that Peterson will
bring suit for personal damages
against Stuart.
Stuart's motive for the assault Is
traced to an article recently published
in the Armstrong Republican by Pet

three OF the most prominent men OF the
town to the public as being dishonest
and undetermined holdups." The ar
ticle was aimed at William Stuart,
