Court Rules Hasty Cannot
Be Impeached for Acts
Prior to Term
CASE MAY NOT COME
TO A FINAL HEARING
Courts Ruling Follows Long Argu-
ment by Counsel-Defendant Has
Until October % to An
swer Charges
Bx l.. S. HEIrY

Montgomery October 20--(SpeciaD- D--Pro-
bate Judge A. i. Hasty of Marengo
county, against whom impeachment pro-
ceedings have been instituted on the
grounds of willful neglect of duty, incom-
potency and corruption in office, scored a
signal victory today at the preliminary
hearing before the supreme court.
The court ruled that Judge Hasty could
not be impeached for any act committed
by him prior to the commencement of
his present term, but took under advise
ment the question as to the extent to
which his conduct during a former ad-
ministration may be inquired into as evi-
Dental facts in passing upon the charges
preferred against him during his present
term.
The courts ruling came at the close of
long argument by counsel representing
the two sides. Attorneys for Judge Hasty
held that the court could not consider
acts committed by their client prior to the
beginning of his present term. while the
attorneys for the state argued that these
acts should be considered in connection
with the charges preferred against him
during his present term.
The courts decision means a decided
victory for Judge Hasty, inasmuch as
the preponderance of the charges against
him were based on acts committed by
him prior to the beginning of his present
term. The court will meet again tomor-
row morning to consider the extent that
his conduct during a previous term may
be inquired into as evidential facts in
passing upon the charges of willful neg
lect, incompetency and corruption in Of
flee during his present term"

county, and the state was represented by

DIES ON THE DESERT
Peter Busch of Nevada, Who Left
Rhyolite With Roy Shaw,
Gives Up Fight

Goldfeld. Nevada, July 1I.-Their
automobile stalled in the blazing sands
of Death Valley. Peter Busch, a we'll
known Colorado and Nevada mining
man, aud Roy Shaw, who left Los
Angeles for Rhyolite last Sunday,
abandoned the machine and started
afoot across the floor of the valley.
Busch became delirious from the ex.
treme 9 and Shaw went in search of
water aud help. This was on Wednes-
day.
To-day q party Of s~earchers found
Busch's body two miles from the Keane
Wonder mine. with water remaini z iu
his canteen. Shortly afterwards Shaw
was found by the rescuers fighting his
way back to the spot where he had left
Busch. He had come across a water
hole and was returning with a full
canteen.
The automobile in which the men
travelled from Los Angeles had been
purchased by Busch for his brother
Frank, a mine owner. They came by
way of Ballarat and headed across
Death Valley in the direction of Rhy.
olite.
When almost across the desert the
car became stuck in the shifting sand
and the men started out to walk the
remaining distance. They had walked
IL miles in the blazing heat when Busch
became d%elirious. Both still had water
in their canteens and Shaw used part of
the precious liquid to dampen cloths
which he placed on his companions
head and breast. Then. although nearly
exhausted from his efforts, Shaw pushed
ahead to obtain a fresh supply from q
spring Of which be had heard, but the
exact location of which was unknown to
him.
A message had been sent to Frank
Busch at Rhyolite that the men were
crossing the desert, but in some way
it failed to reach him. When they
failed to arrive he and others started
out in automobiles to search for the
missing men. IL was Busch who found
his brothers. body near the Keane Won
der mine, the first automobile traveller
claimed as a victim by the desert. Shaw
was found by other members OF the
party. He is being cared for at Rhyo-
lite. The rescuer were nearly pros
trated by the heat in the valley. which
is terrible at the present time.
The Busch brothers were the pioneers
Of the Bullfrog district. aud laid out the
town of Rhyolte. They formerly lived
in Cripple Creek, Colorado.
