WARDEN OF PENITENTIARY AT

SECRETARY C. 0. BROXON
Barker Urged Shook to Continue At
tack, Br0xOn Claims Editorial
Cause of the Show

BOISE, Oct. 28-Warden Shook O.
the penitentiary, accompanied by Sec
retary of State George r. Barker, as
saulted C. o. Broxon, Governor Alex
ander's private secretary last night
in the rotunda of the capitol. Broxon
has cut an inch long over the right
eye, and was unconscious from
Snooks attack. He was beaten about
the face, and severely bruised.
The attack was provoked by an ar
ticle appearing in the Capital News,
of which Broxon was editor prior to
his appointment, and for which he is
still writing editorials. The News
is opposing Barker for reelection.
The article in question said in part
that it was Barker who joined to pro-
tect the state penitentiary from prop
er investigation by the governor; in
short, it was Barker who has fig
ured in so many matters receiving
newspaper publicity during the last
two years, beginning with the protec-
tion given to Shook in preventing an
inquiry into the prison records.
Last evening, after office hours in
the capitol building, Secretary Broxon
was hailed by Warden Shook as he
was ABOUT to enter the governors Of
flee. As they stood before the gov
ernor's door Shook demanded of Brox-
on if he wrote editorials for the News.
Broxnn replied that he did sometimes.
did you write that editorial about
Barker and me about the investiga-
ton at the penitentiary?" queried
Shook.
"Yes sir" Broxon replied. Blows
followed. Broxon sank to tie floor
from the force of one over the right
eye and from the effects of which he
became unconscious. Secretary of
State Barker stood near. w. G.
Schultz rushed from his office and
called upon Shook to desist from his
attack. Broxon was bleeding from
the cut and before he could arise was
beaten about the head.
