+. {. Turner Arrested
Faces Serious Charges
barren Butte Rancher Arrested Last
Week on Two Cattle Theft Charge.
and Held for Hearing

r. c. Turner, homcstcader and
rancher OF the Barren Butte neigh.
borhood, was arrested last Friday
on two charges of cattle rustlne.
The complaints charge him with
the larceny of COW from Fred
Ostrum, and 10 months old calf
from the Stiles Cattle Company.
When arraigned before Justice Berg
at Fort Yates, Turner through his
attorney, Judge Beede of Fort Yates.
filed affidavit of prejudice against
the local justice and applied for /.
change OF venue to r. B. McDon.
aid, justice of the peace at Solen,
which was granted.
In default of bail Turner was
held i'm custody until Monday when
the preliminary hearing was held
before the Solen justice. He was
defended by Attorney Sullivan of
Mandan along the lines prep r. d by
Judge Beedc. Only the Stiles calf
case was taken up, and the Justice
Preserved his decision until October
18th, at which time the case pre-
fcrrcd by Fred Ostrum will be
heard. Until then Turner will
be at liberty on a 81, 900 bond fur
nished by Major w. l.. Bclden of
Shields.
At the hearing Turner denied the
charge, and claimed that the calf
belonged TO him. His wife, sons
and daughter are also ready to tes-
|tify that the animal had been rais-
ed on the Turner ranch. In the
COW case, Judge Beede says, the de-
Tense will! be that the COW strayed
into Turner's herd.
Turner moved on the reservation
about a year and a half ago from
Emmons county and filed on
homestead near Barren Butte. He
brought with him in the neighbor-
hood of l5O cattle which he has
been running on his own and ad-
joining land. During his residence
in the county he has had consid-
cradle trouble with his neighbors,
both Indians and white, but he has
not been charged with crime before.

Kaiser Agrees To New
Proposed Peace Plan
Austria joins Germany in Agreement
to Proposal for Peace Suggested
BY the Pontiff Recently

London, SEPT. 24.-The German and
Austro-Hungarian governments, IN re.
ply to the peace proposals of Pope Ben.
edict, express the hope that the pom.
tiff's efforts may bring about peace.
Emperor William cherishes live.
ly desire" that the Vatican appeal may
meet with success.
Germany's reply is written by a
member of the emperor's encourage,
while that of Austria Hungary is per-
| sonal missive from Emperor Charles.
Both notes to the Pope were made
public almost simultaneously and ap-
parently both follow the same general
trend.
Text Of German Reply:
The text of the reply reads:
Herr CARDINAL: Your eminence has
been good enough, together with your
letter of August 2, to transmit to the
Kaiser and king my most gracious mas
ter, the note Of His Holiness, the
Pope, in which His Holiness, filled
with grief at the devastations of the
world war, makes an emphatic peace
appeal to the heads Of the belligerent
peoples. The kaiser and king has
deigned to acquaint me with your en-
inence's letter and to entrust the reply
to me-
His majesty has been following for
considerable time with high respect
and sincere gratitude His Holiness
efforts in a spirit of true impartiality
to alleviate as far as possible the suf.
ferings of the war and to hasten the
end of hostilities. The kaiser sees in
the latest step of His Holiness fresh
proof OF his noble and humane feel
ings and cherishes a lively desire that
for the benefit of the entire world the
papal appeal may meet with success.
Austria Favors Disarmament.
Amsterdam, Sept. 24.-Peace would
come from the recent proposals of
Pope Benedict If the belligerent ma
tions would enter into negotiations in
the sense of the Pontiff's suggestions,
Emperor Charles of Austria H hungary
says in his reply to the Vatican note.
The Emperor sees in the Pope's peace
plan suitable basis for starting nego.
tiations toward a just and lasting
peace and expresses the hope that the
nations opposing his own may be ami.
mated by the same idea.
Austria -Hungary's ruler received the
pontiff's note with thankful heart
and with an expression of hope that
the pontiff's efforts may lead to the
realization of the Emperor's desire for
lasting and honorable peace for all
PARTIES.
Freedom Of Seas Stressed.
Freedom of the seas is one of the
peace hopes of Emperor Charles in or
der that heavy material burdens could
De taken from the nations of the earth
and new sources of prosperity opened

The reply, received here in a dis.
patch from Vienna, was handed to
Monsignor T. Valfre di Bonzo, the ia.
pal nuncio at Vienna on Thursday.
The Austrian Emperor admits that
The future arrangement of the world
must be based on the elimination of
armed force and on the rule of inter.
national justice and legality.
Austria is prepared, the reply states
20 enter into negotiations for the sub.
mission of international disputes to

Gayton's Statement

In the issue of the Pioneer, Au-
gust 30, appeared an account of the
arrest Of John Clayton of Cannon
ball. Mr. Clayton objects to certain
statements made about the shots
fired. His story is substantially as
follows:
That Jordan attempted to cross
the river on the toll bridge without
paying toll, and attempted to force
his way. The person in charge of
the bridge called for help and Cay
ton got his shot gun and started
toward the river. Jordan and his
friends seeing the shot gun in Gay
toms hand retreated and attempted
to cross in the water, where the car
stuck in the river, and they jumped
out Of the car and ran. No shots
were fired by Gayton and when he
was taken to Solen he was asked tc
return the 29th Of September on his
own recognizance.
This is Gayton's story of the af.
fair. In reporting the case the Pho.
neer gave the story as it was com.
monty reported, and there was nc
desire to misrepresent.
