iaD Martin Conley, who halls
from the neighborhood of Prosser,
so he says, ran amuck here Satur-
day night. He made an unpro-

victims head and followed up
with a vicious attack with the
portion of the jagged-edged bot
tie which remained in his hand.
Craig was terribly cut about the
head and when the Chief of Po-
lice Stevens arrived on the scene
the rancher was lying on the side
walk with Conley kicking him.
Conley was taken into custody
and he is now in the county jail
under $1,000 bonds to await trial
in the superior court. The
charge is assault with intent to
kill. Craig is in a precarious
condition.
