II we mistake not, the Oregonian
was one of the first papers in the state
to advocate direct primary law and
to make due apologies for seeming
discrepancies in such law that was
tried in some of the states several years
ago. Senator Fulton stated in the
presence of the writer few years ago
that he had pointed out to Mr.. Scott
his mistake in advocating the primary
law, and yet in short time afterward
Mr.. Fulton stood up at big political
feast In Portland and told how he
stood in for the direct primary law.

asked I'll Scott by one of the jurymen asked if he hd searched for empty shotgun cartridges at and around the scene of the shooting and answered that he had found three empty shot gun cartridges, two of wnich were fresh and one which had evidently 1 been used long time before.
 This proved the testimony of little May as 10 the number of shots fired by her father. Its accidental discov- cry as well as the fact that her testi- mony was substantially the same at the trial as well as at the coroner's inquest, when the tragedy that left her sisters and brothers fartherless was still fresh in her memory, proved beyond reasonable doubt that she told , the truth.
 The introduction of testimony clos cd yesterday morning at II o'clock. Mrs. Henry Bcvering testified that she was introduced to George Doty of Jerome by Mrs. Brinkwater, a friend, in wine room in the Owl saloon building Thursday night and that Doty told ner that if she would testi- | " that she saw Hurley shoot st the Conray children that he would give her $500. She also alleged that Doty that her husband would also testify to the same thing. Witness denied drinking in the wine room.
 Her testimony was contradieted by Doty, who admitted meeting Mrs. Bevering and Mrs. Drinkwater in the ' wine room and having a drink with them. He also admitted asking Bev. ering if she knew anything about Hur- 2 ley shooting at the Conray children. She asked him in reply "what was in itf" and he answered nothing.
 Shortly after the verdict was re. turned last night( it was rumored in the streets and in the cafes that ten men on the jury were in favor of in flicting the death penalty but this could not be traced to any foundation.
 Hurley Is so years of age, according 10 his own statement. He is a native of Iowa. He came here from Nevada eighteen years ago. He has been en- gagged in mining and prospecting in the Black Hills almost ever since. In 1901 he got into dispute with Con ray and has not been on friendly terms with him since.
 He claimed that his rights were in vaded from time to time by Conray who, nc maintained invaded his premises by grazing his goats on his
 mining claims and around his home Bad feelings between the men eon' tinued until the shooting of Conrsy s for which Hurley was found guilty last night.

THINKS CASTLE HOT SPRINGS
 DESERT GARDEN SPOT
(From Fridays DailyO

"The Castle Hot Springs is the gar. den spot of Yavapai county" said M. J. Hickey, proprietor of the Hotel St. Michael, who returned yesterday from that famous resort. He has been spending two weeks there and he is enthusiastic over the beauty of the place and its environments, and is especially loud in his praise of the management and the excellence of the service.
 Manager Shaffer and his assistant, Mr. II. II. Ward, are two of the most afable gentlemen ever met. Their entire attention seems to be devoted towards ministering to the comfort and pleasure of their guests, and the Springs has the best stan of help l ever saw, The kitchen is without a peer anywhere and supplementing are cold storage plant, an ice making plant, cream separator and vegeta- ble gardens. No finer table is set in the west, everything being absolutely first class. Any person who wants a rest, or who desires to take a vsea. tion, should certainly go to the Castle Hot Springs. It is both an ideal and and idyllic place and all that it needs to make it large town is A railroad. I am heartily in favor of it and hope that it will not be long before it has such transportation facilities. How ever, tne ride from the junction on au- tomobile and stage, is a delightful one, and is not at all wearisome despite the 2s miles covered. At the Springs now the climate is semi.tropical and doubt if it has an equal anywhere in the world. There is no limit 10 my praise of the Springs and its manage ment, and there is nothing that you can say on that point that will be too strong.'
 Mir. Hickey returns to Prescott much benefited in health, wbicn is mani fested in his improved appearance. He spent n day in Phoenix on the return trip.

HURLEY TELLS TALE
 OF COWBOY KILLING
Crrom Saturdays Daily,

In direct and cross examination in the district court yesterday, F. D. Hurley, on trial for the murder of Frederick J. Conroy, denied ever pointing n rife at the Conroy children, shooting at Mrs. Conroy, or telling Witness Ralph King, who testified Thursday, that ne (Hurley) had pur' chased a rife to kill Conioy. In his cross examination Hurley said that some of the testimony given by wit pesses was true and some untrue, not ably tAat of Dennis Shea of Jerome, who Hurley said lied in his evidence
 He admitted shooting Conroy, his justification being lf-defense.
 Testifying to the shooting from the witness stand, he said in part that he left his house at ten minutes past z Q ,clpck the morning of the shooting in search of a horse. He found the house and in returning to his place leading the animal was surprise when the horse threw its head back. Look jnp ahead he saw Conroy twenty-eight feet distant in front in the act Of shooting at him with what he thought was A rife. The first shot struck nm | in the left arm. A second shot was almost immediately fired, what he be lieyed the bullet passing through the aeshy part of the leg near the ief' knee. He dropped the rope and rap as fast as he could in the direction or his house and corral. A third shot was fired by Conroy at a distance oi no feet from him. Conroy eontiued to fire on him until he reached the cor raI. firing eight shots in all, hve oi which took effect.

way nome and witness was going 10 Jerome. Conroy had bottle of whis. key. He asked witness to join him in taking a drink. Witness took a drink and in the course of a short converse. ton Conroy asked him if he had seen Hurley that day and after witness an. swering m the affirmative Conroy said, "I expect m have to kill the old grayheaded - yet"
 Clark said on cross examination that he was on friendly terms with Hurley and was not on unfriendly terms vita ConrOy, although the ques. tions asked by the district attorney pointed that the witness was not on friendly terms with Conroy since Con. Toy had refused to testify a certain way in a water suit in which Clark is alleged to have been interested.
 l.. A. Willard testified that he had known Hurley since 1879 in Nevada and that Hurley stopped at his place when he first came to Arizona. He said that he had conversation with witness King last election day at Cot. tonwood in which King told him that he had asked Hurley to settled his quarrel with Conroy some time before the shooting. King informed witness that he had told Hurley that Conroy feared he would ambush him. and that Hurley answered that he would not ambush him and that Conroy could travel any trail if he would quit pack. ing that old gun.
 Cross examined, the witness admit. ted that he was friendly to Hurley and that the purpose of his convefsa- ton with King was to satisfy him self whether Hurley was murderer, SO that in ease he appeared guilty to him he would not have any further re- lations with him.
 Court adjourned al , o'clock until Q o'clock this morning, when it is be- lievcd the defense will call the defen. dant to witness stand to relate his yer. sion of the shooting.
