ALL IS CHAOS

The world seems to be having an
awful mix up. Upheavals of every ma
ture seem to be the fashion of the
hour. Turbulency perhaps may be a
better word. Any how nations like
individuals are fussing about what
shall and shall not be the new order
now that the world war has to all
intents come to an end.
Some nations like some individuals
have grown belIicose and men become
grandiloquent, surfeited with power.
All seem bent to impress their great
ness upon the rest of mankind. The
real fact is, the white man now in
the height of his glory is all puzzled
over the aggressive nature of his
being.
What he wishes to do, and have is
getting the upper hand of his better
spirit, and there is some likelihood of
another war more terrible than the
one just over. fragrant political out

times we think the white race is not
capable of self government. Enough
laws have been enacted to meet the
needs of all eternity, and still we
must make laws just as we make
coffins.
Civilization surely must be on the

HUSTLER OF
D|NGHAM COUNTY IS
GIVEN TWO YEARS
Fay Hembry Convicted Of As
sault With Deadly Weapon
and Sentenced to the State
Penitentiary.

Entering the plea of guilty before
District Judge Cowan Saturday to the
charge of assault with deadly wea-
pom. Ray Hembry has been sent to
Boise in charge of Parole Officer
Walker to begin serving a two year
sentence in the state penitentiary, says
the News, Blackfoot.
Hembry was returned from Kansas
after a sensational Jail delivery from
the county in 1915. When first ar
rested he was facing a charge of horse
stealing but in an exchange of shots
between officers and fugitives after
his escape he wounded one of the
posse and the latter charge was sub
stituted.
MADE GETAWAY
Hembry and his companions made
their getaway from the local Jail by
a very clever method, using keys
made from bar OF babbit metal which
a timer was using in repair work in
the cell house. When the opportune
moment came Ray Hembry unlocked
the cell and the others followed him.
The escape was made at night.
Through an uncle of Hembry talk
ing freely of conditions in this part
of Idaho. Sheriff Simmons was asked
by an officer at Pratt, Kansas, IL the
whereabouts of the uncle were of any
. SPcSidl lnlcTeSt. ~ negative reply WAS
sent but it was stated that inforIna-
ton as to the whereabouts of the
nephew, Ray, was very much desired
and that $50 would be paid for infor-
nation leading to his arrest. 1t was
stated that Hembry was finishing q
term in the Kansas state penitentiary
on a charge of bank robbery. Through
this information Sheriff Simmons was
able to secure the fugitive.
ARRESTED IN 1915
The men arrested with Ray Hembry
on a charge of cattle rustling" were
Jess Hembry and Dutch" West. In
the Jail delivery, Ray Hembry, Dutch
West and Mix Burton, another man
held for trial, alone succeeded in leav-
ing. Dutch West was recaptured in
Salt Lake City a year later. brought
back to Blackfoot AND given two years
and nine months in the state peniten-
tiary. Mix Burton had short time for
freedom, being captured three days
later after revolver fight i'm which
Deputy Sheriff l.. S. Fackrell had a
foot shot off.
Ray Hembry will have to face the
charge of cattle stealing on his re-
lease from the penitentiary.
