SREEPHERDER ATTACKED
BY INFURIATED BEAR
Joe Lucas, Well Known in Payette,
Has Terrible Experience with Bear
in Upper country-Left in Critical
Condition from the Encounter
One Arm and Leg Terribly Laoerst-
ed and Face and Neck Injured.

Walking from his tent Wednesda,
night to quiet his band OF sheep an,
I to scare off what he thought was
coyote at which his dogs were bark
ing. Joe Lucas, a herder in the EN-
pioy Of Pence Brothers, was sudden
! ly attacked In the dark by an infur
lated bear whose two cubs had beer
treed by the sheep dogs. Unarmet
and in the dark the herder had an
experience that no man would care
for. One arm and one leg were ter
ribly lacerated and his face and mech
also severely wounded by the animal
which would have undoubtedly have
killed him had not his sheep dogs
came to his rescue and by nagging
at the bear finally succeeded in get
ting her away from him and by
great eXertion Lucas was able to
crawl to his tent and get inside
where he lay in a semi-conscious CON
dition until Thursday when John Ap-
plegate, of Payette accompanied by
a man by the name of Peterson, of
Montana drove up to camp in order
to let Peterson inspect the lambs
which ne was thinking of buying.
They found the sheep being well TAX
en- care Of by the dogs but were sur
prised at not finding the herder on
duty. Hearing groans they proceed
ed to the tent and found Lucas in
terrible condition indeed having suf-
fered from the loss of blood and in
coniderable pain from his wounds.
He was hurried to Crawford the
nearest town where medical atten-
tion was secured and 1t is thought
viii recover but may be terribly Grip
pied.
When he recovered somewhat Lu-
'as told the story of how hearing
the dogs barking he supposed coy
)te was bothering the sheep and |
without his gun went out TO scare /
he animal away only to be attacked
by big bear whose cubs were treed |
)y the dogs. She felled him to the
yround and left him once to look
lfter the cubs but before he could
,rawl to the tent returned followed
,y the dogs who by shipping at her
lanks distracted her attention and
inally to such an extent that he
managed to crawl to the tent where
Ie lay all night long until Applegate
nd Peterson arrived.
Lucas has sister living in Pay
tie, a Mrs. Bailey, who lives in the
orth party of the city.

FACTORY RUNNING
FULL BLAST
Payette cannery Now Working on
Peas-Acreage Large and Crop
Good-Run Promises to be Long
est Factory Ever Made.

With the biggest acreage of pea
ever raised in this section and will
the quality the best the Idaho Can
ming Company's factory is now run
ming full blast canning the crop
This week the force employed mum
bers sixty-five people but this will
be increased to eighty next week
when, the crop begins to come in in
good s.iape.
IN speaking of this years crop OF
reas Manager L. V. Patch stated:
THE acreage is the largest this year
and the peas the best quality we
have eveer had. The early rains
sprouted every pea planted and the
conditions have been ideal producing
the heaviest crop the valley has ever
known. We estimate that it will
take six weeks of steady running to
can the pea crop and this will mean
thirty cars of peas.
"Just as soon as we finish on peas
we will start in on peaches, apricots
and pears and this year the outlook
is for fine run on those fruits.
When through with them we will can
apples until way late in November"
The new process man, ]. E. West
of Portland, is taking hold of the
ork in his department with a vim
that bears up the testimonials he
!, tO thaf
he was a process man of large ex-
'parience and would give satisfaction.
In addition to his duties as manag-
er of the plant General L. V. Patch
has this year assumed the duties of
factory foreman and is fast getting
the force thoroughly organized that (
tie best results may be accomplished. |
The company this year have pur- |
chased the crop of the Shawhan pear
orchard which will give them a big |
run on pears.
That the factory will have a big
run of some length will be good news
to Payette people. Just what the
steady running of this factory means
until late in November is better under
stood when we realize that the pay
roll averages 1000 per week. 1t
means the distribution of considerable
money in salaries in addition to the
money paid the pea growers for
their crop. Many pea growers have
made as high as $3.50 per acre on
IL cir crops and the common average I
is 800 per acre which gives to the
grower $50 net When one stops to
consider that the peas are a crop |
easily raised between the rows of {
young orchard trees and that the =,
raising of them is very beneficial to {
the soil on account of their nitrogen 6
Gus qualities, it can be seen that it ,
pays to raise peas in more than '
one way. Not only will the ranch S
man get good price for his labor I
but every crop of peas raised puts a
hack into the soil that whichi makes a
a rapid and healthy growth of his a
orchard more certain. v

STATEMENT OF FACTS.

: In answer to an article which ap
reared in last weeks issue of this
paper, we would respectfully submit
these remarks.
Last fall, Paul Van Der Kar pur
chased tract of land which he has
leveled and with which he obtained
no water He quite carly in the fall
applied to three of his neighbors for
the right to use a ditch of one hund-
red ten rods which they had been
years in building offering each the
munificent sum of one dollar, this
was also to cover cost for a right of
way for a pipe line of eighty some
rods through the remainder of the
distance to his place.
A proposition was made to him. by
two of his neighbors to lay pipe lin
the entire length to be paid for by
the three according to the amount of
water each had in said pipe. This
was rejected as being too expensive.
II was then proposed that he run his
line the entire distaEce and the cost
would be but the one dollar that
the law requires, Jesse Redinston
offering to do the plowing for said
line. rather than endaEger the ditch
with more shares of water This al
SO was refused as too costly.
His neighbors then offered to-
give him a right of way for the sum
of three hundred dollars. He thought
this too high so his neighbors Of
fered 20 leave it to board of arbi'
traitors of five men who had each |
had at least five years experience
in irrigation. He objected to the (
five years claue and said he would .
take it to court. Later an offer
was made to strike out the objection
able part of that clause but it was
rejected and the matter taken to
court.
Before the case came to a trial
the defendants went to Caldwell to
try to make a settlement with Van
Der Kar's lawyer, who after listen
ing to the proposal of settlement,
said he would write to the attorney
in Payette and would advise settle
ment out of court along the lines
that had been suggested by the de-
'endants. Hearing nothing from this
he defendants went to Van Der
<ar's attorney in Payette and offered
o make a settlement in any way
hat would be satisfactory and for .
lin to see the defendants lawyer
No further effort being made to set
lie the case came to trial and
plaintiff was given the right to go
Iollars as the cost and damages stat
ID by the jury. With the verdict
lone Van Der Kar went onto the
tamey tract and began to dig for
lis pipe line seventeen feet off of
he right of way the jury had de- :
reed he should have. MIR. Ramey
'ent out and told him repeatedly to
ct off the place and upon refusal
nd ordering his men to keep on r
yorking he was struck over the head
nth a small stick breaking the =
kin and telling him to the ground. =
Ie got up and walked a half mile
nd telephoned for a doctor. Upon =
rriving in town he had Mr. Ramey

, harm.
