Plans of Horse Thieves Foiled

Judging from reports that are
current regarding the activities of
horse thieves throughout this section
Of the state it may become necessary
TO resort TO the old time practice of
dealing with these individuals
through vigilance committees. The
Twin Falls Times gives the follow
ing account of an encounter with
these rustlers near that city only re-
Gently:
Sunday night a rancher living he
low the highline. five miles southwest
OF this city. had lively experience
with horse rustlers. The story
brought to this city by w. F.. Mike
sell was that his neighbor living on
the Wertzbaugher place. found a con-
pie OF men with a string OF ten or y
animals letting down the wires of his
renee where number N horses wore
running. The discovery was made
ABOUT ten O'Clock at night The
neighbor, whose name is Sparks. i'm
mediately set out for Mikesell IN oh
tain help. Upon getting there he
seized a shotgun left outside and
started back to drive the marauders
away. Getting close enough Sparks
challenged the men and opened fire.
the rustlers returning the fire with
thelr revolvers and the bombardment
ended with the thieves moving TO
other pastures. Sparks heard sew
eral bullets whiz past his head but
was uninjured. and concluded that
MS shotgun did just as Ineffective
work
Mr.. Mikesell stated that he heard
the shots but did not imagine the
cause until the next day, when the
helghDor explained the missing eun
during Sunday evening Mr.. MikeseIl
discovered that his own horses SUD-

where along the line.

STATE OFFICER INDICTED.

Judging from the reports that
reach us from Boise, the grand jury
which was summoned to probe affairs
around the capitol are evidently do
ing business. Late last week the jury
found indictments against State Aud
itor Huston, charging him with a
transportation of funds. He was
at once put under arrest and his
bonds placed at $4,000 which he fur
nished. On Monday he was brought
before the court TO answer the
charges to which he pleaded not
guilty.
On the heels of this came the an
nouncement that true bills had been
found against former State Food
Commissioner Wallis in five instanc-
es. The indicted man was at his
home in Salt Lake City, but sheriff
was sent after him and he was re-
turned to the state.
On Monday the indicted men were
arraigned before Judge Davis with
the following proceedings as told BY
the Statesman:
Mr.. Wallis, at the request of his
attorneys, was given until today at
o O'Clock to plead
B. S. Crow, representing Mr.. Hus-
ton, asked that he be allowed until
Saturday to prepare a demurrer to
the indictment. That time was al
lowed and argument will be heard
after the motion calendar is called
Saturday. Mr.. Grow said he will at
tack the indictment on grounds of in
sufhc1ency, in that the charge it sets
forth does not constitute a public Of
tense.
upon the request OF attorneys for
Mr.. Wallis and with the agreement
OF Prosecuting Attorney Givens. the
amount of the bail required of Mr.
wallace was reduced to $4,000, or
$1,000 for each offense. 1t was ex-
planned that Mr.. Wallis had been for
some time a resident of another state
and that has connections in this
town were not such that they could
furnish the required $4,000.
Shortly after 5 o'clock Mr.. Wallis
was released. One thousand dollars
cash was received from Lester T.
Wright of Twin Falls and personal
pond was filed by Victor C. Hegsted
and Don c. briggs of Madison coun-
w. Mr.. Wallis announced that as
soon as possible after his appearance
In court this morning he would leave
for his home
A conviction on any of the above
indictments is punishable by a term
In the penitentiary and disbarrment
from office. The events of the mast
week have been sufficient to stir up
political circles throughout the state
and everybody is expectantly await
ing further events.

AUTO Thieves LOCATED
YOUNG MEN ARRESTED AT RAP
I'D CITY TO BE TAKEN TO
ILLINOIS FOR TRIAL.

Cottonwood, Dec 2.-Martin Law
son, a young man from Vermillion
county, Ill, who a few days ago was
arrested on suspicion of being one of
several young men who had stolen
several automobiles in the Illinois
county and headed for South Dakota,
has been released from custody, as IL
has been established that he had
nothing to do with stealing the auto
mobiles, although he was acquainted
with the young men who did commit
the theft Ii has developed that the
two young men who are being sought
for by the Illinois authorities are
Ernest Williams and Lee Silvers, who
recently were arrested at Rapid City
on the charge Of having burglarized
several stores in that city from which
they secured a great deal of cash and
a considerable quantity of merchan
disc. They had taken up their abode
in an old abandoned shack on the
outskirts of the city. where they fl
nally were located and arrested. The
old shack had been transformed into
a veritable robbers den When the
South Dakota authorities get through
with the two young men, who are
about as desperate as the most hard
ened criminals many years older.
they doubtless will be turned over to
the Illinois authorities and taken
back to that state for trial on the
charges against them there.

Altamont, Dec. ARRESTED on the
charge of threatening to cut the
throats of his wife and children, John
Dobrey. farmer living near here,
has been lodged i'm the county Jail
pending action on his case by the
county authorities. II appears that
at intervals of about a year for sew
eral years past he has gone on a ram
page and alarmed the members OF
his family. This time his wife be
came frightened when he threatened
to cut the throats of herself and chill
dren and had him arrested The
county insanity commission is con-
sidering the case, as ii is believed in
some quarters that Dobrey's mental
faculties are not normal and that his
queer spells" may be due to attacks
of temporary insanity.
