Have Suit
Over Cattle
e. J. Armbruster Sues Stephen
Trautman for Breach of Com
tract but the Jury Grants DAM
ages to Defendant.

A suit for $270 damages insti-
tuted by E. j. Armbruster, the
Nezperce cattle buyer, against
Stephen Trautman, of Green
creek, for the alleged breaking
of a stock contract was tried
here in Justice Wolbert's court
Saturday. The trial commenced
directly after dinner and the
verdict was not returned until
about 9 o'clock that evening,
Atty. Reese Hattabaugh, of
Grangeville, appeared for the de-
fense while Alvord & Holman,
of this place, represented Mr..
Armbruster. Quite a number
of witnesses were examined and
the trial brought out the facts
that early last April Mr.. Arm
bruster contracted with Mr..
Trautman to take 81 head Of the
latter's cattle on June 18th and
that until that date the cattle
were to be fed by Trautman,
who was paid $1OO on the con-
tract price at the time the con-
tract was drawn up. Later
Trautman sold 10 head of fat
cattle to Chas. Albin and Mr..
Armbruster contended that some
of the cattle sold were among
those contracted to him. Traut-
man maintained that he still had
enough cattle to fill the contract
and asked $1OO damages from
Mr., Armbruster for not taking
the cattle at the stated time.
The case was well presented on
both sides and after being out
about half an hour the jury
brought in a verdict giving Mr..
Trautman $1OO damages. The
jurors were H. Wilson, w. R.
Dixon, R. H. Tombleson, G. Disc,
]. M. Swartz and Tony Smith.

August Schroeder, a prosper
GUS farmer Of the Keuterville
country, was in town Saturday
and informed us he had just re-
turned from the lower country
where he purchased seven head
of thoroughbred Hereford cattle
at prices aggregating nearly
$1,000. The cattle purchased
were a 4-year old bull, three
yearling bulls, two cows and
calf and all are of the finest
stock in the west. The three
yearlings Mr.. Schroeder sold to
his neighbors before he got them
home but the other cattle he re-
tanned for his own use and will
start a herd of full blood Here
ford cattle. He already has
a number of three-quarter bred
cattle of this strain but wished
to have the pure blood so he pur-
chased the best stock he could
find. The bull above referred to
weighs 210O pounds.and for the
past two years has taken first
prize at the Oregon and Wash
ington state fairs and the Spo-
kane Interstate fair and last
year took the second prize at the
Lewis & Clark fair at Portland,
being beaten only by an animal
imported from Missouri. This
bull is without doubt the finest
bred animal Of the Hereford
stock in the northwest and cost
Mr.. Schroeder $4O0. The entire
bunch of cattle was purchased
from Mr.. SpIawn, the cattle
breeder, at North Yakima, Wash.
Now that the range is practic-
ally gone Mr.. Schroeder says the
farmers can only handle a limit
ed number Of cattle each year
and there is no reason why they
should not have the best as
they cost no more to raise and
are worth more for all purposes.
Persons interested in fine stock
will do well to visit Mr.. Schro-
der's farm west of Keuterville
and take look at the fine cattle
he now owns.

active work on the electric roaC
within the next 60 days.
Mr.. Hurlbut, who superin
tended the financing of the pro
ject, is president of the Com
mercial Trust Co. at Lewiston

in it also. Then, if he succeeds
in renting both places, he will
remodel the other warehouse fac
