Two More Cars of Hogs

Henry Goul, the local representa-
tive of the Union Meat company, will
ship two cars loads of hogs to the
Portland market tomorrow. Practi-
ally the entire shipment was pur-
chased from Van Deusen brothers and
George Johnson ranch on Bissel creek.
A larger part of the shipment was
prime stuff and the remainder was
filled in with stockers which will be
fed upon tankage and put in condi-
ton in the yards of the above COM
pany in Portland. The price paid
this week ranged from 7A to TIC
per pound. Mr.. Goul also expects to
have enough to fill another car next
week. As will be seen, the hog busi-
ness in the Emmett valley has reach
ed point where it is no small affair.

Loses Buggy in willow Creek.

While Robert Little was taking a
new buggy home for his brother Sam,
the Crane creek sheepman, one day
last week, he came near having a seri-
Gus accident. A chinook had raised
Big Willow creek and as Mr.. Little
was driving across the ford near the
Jim Knee ranch, the buggy tipped
over the edge of the ford into several
feet of water. The team was unhitched
and taken to dry ground with consid-
erable difficulty, and the buggy was
rescued several rods down stream.
Big Willow, during the past week, has
been higher than for Is years, except
during the cloudbursts last year, and
the new roads built after last years
floods have been nearly ruined.

GORE ATTORNEY FLAYS
ACCUSERS
Sensational Speech of Moman
Prueitt-Calls Bandit Jen-
nings a Liar.

That was merciless faying No
man Prueitt, Senator Cores attorney
and close friend, gave Al Jennings
ex-bandit and candidate for governor
in Oklahoma, and Mrs. Bond, the wo-
man who brazenly became the tool Of
men whom Prueitt denounced as po-
I litical crooks and thieves.
1t would be impossible to convey ar
impression Of Prueitt's speech BY
printing the words he says, says g
correspondent. His movements, pan
therlike, the infections Of his voice
the expression of his face, the black
hair tossing like prairie grass in q
storm, all Of these, and more, are a
part Of his speech, as much as the
spoken words.
"She is clay in the potter's hands,
he said, pointing TO Mrs. Bond, "and
I'll show you who the potters are"
And then he tells of the men who
plotted the conspiracy to ruin Senator
Gore.
Attorneys for Mrs. Bond had said in
their speeches, referring to the testi-
mony of Al Jennings, and pointing at
Senator Cores lawyers, They'll not
dare to say he lied"
Coming to this in his speech, Prue-
lit Strengthened up and said:
Here's where I get killed. Meas
ure me now for my coffin. Begin to
dig my grave. This bad man Jennings,
this outlaw who is capitalizing his
every criminal act, who tenders his
career as a train robber as his chief
asset for citizenship, has threatened
to kill any man who dares to call him
a liar. 1 call him a liar 1 call him
a perjurer. l say he is unworthy the
respect of any man 1 say this and 1
say that Al Jennings will not dare to
crook his little finger at me-"
There had been introduced in evi-
dence for Mrs. Bond and her Cocoon
spirators letter written by Fitzpat-
rick, one of the three men who hid
in room and peeped ar Senator Gore
as Mrs. Bond led him into the room
in the Winston hotel. In that letter
Fitzpatrick wrote that he had been a
soldier in the Philippines and had 'fol-
lowed the flag ten thousand miles"
Prueitt had this to say of it: 'Fol-
lowed the flag ten thousand miles,
did he? Let me tell you, men, he'd
follow the bedraggIed pettieoats of
degraded woman ten thousand miles
where he'd follow the flag once"
"This brave soldier, who stood there
in that darkened room in Washing
ton hotel and peeped through q crack
at blind man who had been lured in
to a lighted room by a woman. A
brave soldier he was, peeping through
a crack"
Then Prueitt turned to Senator
Gore, who sat with his wife near the
jury box.
Senator, you were there cropping
in the darkness of your blindness"
and he shut his eyes and initiated
him, with his hands outstretched,
cropping.
"You were there, Senator Gore,
by men whose souls were
