County.

Glendive. June 2.-Arraigned
on Tuesday before Justice kean
on charge of assault in the first
degree upon Ray Lowe, a stock
man of the western part of Daw-~
son county. Samuel Roberts en-
tered aplea of not guilty. The time
for his preliminary examinations
was fixed for next Saturday, June
J and his bail bond was fixed at.
$500. Objection to the amount:
named on the ground that it ,vasis
excessive, was interposed by At
torney Leiper. counsel for the de-
fendant, but overruled by the JUS
tice. In default of bond Robertr
was remanded to the custody Of
the sheriff.
The alleged assault was com<r
mitted on Thursday afternoon.
May y, in the extreme western
part of Dawson county about 55'
miles from Miles City. and. as i&**
usually the case, reports concern~
ing the shooting are conflicting.
The two men are said to have
had a dispute over the right Of:
Roberts to participate in a general
roundup, and as Roberts is re-
ported to have some horses rang,
ing in that section. he was deter"
mined to attend to rounding themr
up.
According to reports receivedA
Roberts and his wife were accom-
panying the roundup; their pre-
sence was objected to by sort,et'
other stockman. and q disputes
arose between Roberts and Love-,
a cowpuncher, with the result that
Roberts drew his revolver and
shot Lowe twice. The bullets en-
tered the chest inflicting whar@::
was at first believed were fatal
wounds. Lowe was rushed by
automobile to the hospital In.
Miles City. attended by surgeons
and at present it is reported he is
in a fair way to recover.
! 1t was reported that Robertsa
fired the first shot when Lowe'ss
back was turned to him, but the
defendant denies that this is true,
As far as can be ascertained> a.
boy named Lock was the only
witness to the shooting and fol-
lowing it, Roberts was taken into
custody by an officer, taken from;
there to Glendive on Friday eve~-
ming.

character will be brought out in
