GUILTY TO STEALING
HORSES AND GETS ONE YEAR.

District Court 10 Held.

six hours Of the issuance Of q COM
plant against him, George Parkinson
pleaded guilty to q charge Of stealing
horses and raj given one year IN the
state penitentiary by Judge Fox In
the district court last night. Parki-
son was arrested Thursday at Joliet
for stealing horses near Park City
and was arraigned before Justice Peck
yesterday afternoon. The train on
which he came to Billings reached
this city but q short time before he
was sentenced.
When arraigned at Park City, Park
ison plead not guilty and maintained
that he was innocent, even appearing
to be offended over being arrested.
After his preliminary hearing, during
which Is witnesses were examined
and he al bound over. he decided
to plead guilty when tried in the dis
trict court. On the train coming to
Billings he admitted stealing the
horses to County Attorney Wilson and
told him all the circumstances Of the
affair. As there vas q session Of
court held last night the county at
torney decided to arraign Parkinson
before Judge FOX at once.
Might Have Made Getaway.
The case contains many strange
circumstances. No one knows who,
II any one. owns the horses which
Parkinson stole and had 1t not been
for the fact that he told Park City
residents and others so many con-
ficting stories he could have made q
clean getaway with the horses, and It
It probable that his crime never would
have been discovered.
AS It was. Parkison, according to
his own story. picked up the horses.
which he said have been running on
the range for the past two years. and
came to Park City, where he attempt
ed to sell them. Failing in this he
traded two Of. the horses to Dick Rob
erts. a Park City man. for q buckskin
horse.
Roberts Gets Suspicious.
Before leaving Park City he told
no less than fifteen entirely different
stories as to how he came into pos
session Of the buckskin horse. for
which he traded. and the two horses
which he stole. On hearing these con-
ficting stories Roberts became suspi-
cious Of Parkinson, and fearing that
he had been 'stung." notified Deputy
Sheriff Young Of the affair.
Before the deputy sheriff could ar
rest Parkinson the latter had made his
getaway. Later he was arrested ct
Joliet by q Carbon county deputy
sheriff and was turned over to Deputy
Sheriff Young, who was in pursuit.

YEoEN BROS. COMPLY WITH

Yegen Bros. have started work on
the street railway line, for which they
were granted q franchise by the city
council last fall. Work on the line
will continue throughout the summer
II the intentions Of the promoters are
carried out.
The line Is being built on Fifth ave

ed last night that 1t was the intention.
of the company to build a line from
the river to the depot by the time the
depot was completed at the latest.
According to the terms OF the fran

on the street car line before July Is
The franchise ordinance was passed

approved by the mayor four days lat
er and Yegen Bros. fled notice of It's
acceptance on October 1, as it pro-
vided they should do so within 80
days OF the passage and approval Of
the ordinance.
Doubtful Of Returns.
The fact that there is an %interurban
line projected, with which Yegen
Bros. intend to connect the local line
Is given as the reason that work has
not been pushed on the line ere this.
Owing to the fact that the promoters
are in doubt as to whether a line in
the city Of Billings, alone, would pay,
they are DESTROYS Of connecting with
an i%nterurban line in order to secure
returns for money invested within a
reasonable length Of time.
Chris. Yegen stated last night that
there vas on doubt in his mind that II
an. i%nterurban line, as projected, Is
built, the local line would be a dnan-
cial success from the outset.
To Donate Right Of Way.
The probabilities Of an ~interurban
line being built, and in the immediate
future, were better according to re.
ports from a reliable source. It Is

The Democratic State Convention
of West Virginia has adopted It's
platform and nominated It's candidates
for State officers. The final har-
mony with which the convention ac-
cepted the results reveals a thoroughly
united party, and promises the poll
ing Of the party's full strength at
the coming election. The candidates
Louis Bennett for Governor; A.
B. Littlepage for Secretary of State
Are strong and popular, and a new
buoyancy, new confidence are Wis
ible.
The Republicans are apparently
hopelessly divided. To their confus-
ion the Scherr faction has its tick
ct in the field, the Swisher faction
also has its ticket, and neither will
yield to the other.
Such a promising outlook for
Democratic success has not been pre-
scented for twelve years. The States
electoral vote was given TO Grant
in 172, but since that year the Dem
Ccrats have won in both national and
State elections down to 1896, From
1896 the Republicans have elected the
Governors and carried the State for
that party's presidential candidates.
However, the plurality of Dawson,
the Republican Governor, over his
Democratic opponent at the election
in 1904 was only 9,OS3 out of total
vote Of 23S, 1853,
With the Republican party widely
split and handicapped by the eX-
travagance of its last administration
the harmonious Democrats have on
ly to conduct the campaign with en-.
c.gy and enthusiasm, and such a
small plurality can be overcome
Corporate influence has always beer
at its strongest in West Virgins
politics, but the present is a time
when corporations had best strictly
confine their activities to the man
agement Of their business.

DOG TAXLAW
r.
IS1Cpusing The. Auditor Trouble
$4,000
In Regard ito Paying Sher.
ifs Commission.

The dog tax, always bobbing up TO
make trouble for somebody, and it is
now causing the State Auditor and
the sheriffs some bother. The Croan
law creating the dog tax did not spec
ify what commission the sheriff
should receive for collecting the tax,
but the Court of Appeals, in its de-
cision unfolding the constitutional
~ of the law, held that the sheriff
commission should be per cent.
As soon as the decision was rendered
Auditor James had 1.-the sheriffs no.
titled to settle up for all the dog
taxes collected. One sheriff retained
10 per cent commission, and told the
Auditor in the letter that II there
was any more commission due him
to please send it to him. Another
sheriff wrote as follows: Your let
ter telling me to settle with the State
for dog taxes was received, and
guess l will have to do it, but say Mr..
Auditor, the great question with us
sheriffs is how much commission do
We get for collecting this tax?
He was promptly informed that 4
per cent would be allowed him, and
that is what all the sheriffs will
receive-4 per cent

Owens, whose wife and child are
