FIGHT OVER A CONTEST
Lewis B. Robertson Shot and Nor
tally wounded Wyley Edwards
In a Dispute Over a Contest Last
Monday Evening.

From the most authentic in
formation obtainable by the News
the details were as follows:
The difficulty occurred about
twenty-five miles southeast of Tu-
cumcari, and the dispute arose
over a claim upon which Robert
son was living and had made APP
p~lication in Nov. 1906 to file upon
as his second homestead entry,
but the Commissioner of the Gen
eral Land Office had requested ad-
ditional evidence of him as to his
right to make this second home
stead entry. This notice never
reached Robertson and the land
was declared open for entry. The
brother of the deceased with full
knowledge of the facts made appli-
cation and procured a filing on the
land. AS soon as Robertson
learned this he made application
to reinstate and for a re-hearing,
which application was pending in
the department at the time.
A few days ago Edwards, who
had made filing, moved on the
land and Robertson demonstrated
with Edwards and requested him
to leave the matter to the depart
ment rs to who should have the
land.
On Monday evening Robertson
and the deceased came together
near Robertson's house and he
requested the deceased to tell his
brother to take his stock out of the
field until he could get some feed
out and stored in his sheds, Ed
wards SO our informer stated said
there is no law in any court that
can do you any good, for there are
three of us and only one of you,"
after a few more words were
spoken, Edwards reached to his
hip pocket for his gun, when
Robertson began firing, two shots
striking Edwards in the breast and
n in the arm. After the shooting
Robertson gave himself up to
Deputy Sheriff G. l.. Lee, who
brought him to Tucumcari We'd
nesday evening.
The preliminary hearing will I've
held before Judge Saxson
at Tucumcari. Robertson has
always borne a good name as a
law abiding citizen. c. c. David
son, the attorney who will defend
Robertson when asked for an
interview, said he had no state
ment to make.
