said Charles Pathe. a short time
after his recent arrival here. Gre
alive skill IL not given to one per-

depend so much upon their stars as
they do upon the stories which they

realizes It before the motion picture

the most important factor in a film OF

NSH00T|NG
Ranch Hand Swears to
Murder Attempt Com
plaint Against a Fellow
C0untryman.

Ten minutes after he had been dis
charged from the hospital as conva
lescent after being bedridden for &
month, Filberto Olea, a Mexican ranch
hand, was in the district attorneys
office swearing out felony com
plant against Joe Diaz.
Diaz is alleged to have put Olea
in the hospital by firing two shots
at him point blank from a revolver
following an alteration at the Tim
ken ranch on the night of December
IA. One bullet penetrated his right
eye, probably binding it, and the
other nipped his coat.
The complaint accuses Diaz of as
sault with a deadly weapon with in
tent to commit murder. The COM
plant was issued by Dorsey White
law, deputy district attorney, who
heard Olea's story through an inter-
prefer.
The shooting is said to have been
the result of quarrel between the
two men while they were engaged in
working on an irrigation ditch. Diaz
is said to still be in the Valley and
to have made other threats against
Olea.

PALMER.
FOR CABINET.
SUCCESSOR.
TO GREGORY,
Pennsylvania Man, Head of
Alien, Property, Slated to
Be the Next Attorney
General.

Washington, Jan. 15.-A. Mitchell
Palmer, alien property custodian, will
be the new attorney general to sue
ceed Attorney General Gregory, who
retires March 4. That is the pres
ent intention of the president. As
Palmer has been recommended for
the position by Vance Mccormick,
chairman of the Democratic National
committee, who is now with Presi-
dent Wilson, it is expected that his
appointment will be formally an
nounced within few days.
One of the principal reasons ad-
vanced for the appointment of Pal
mer is his splendid record in the con-
duct of his present office and his
effective destruction of German prop
aganda by attacking it at it's source
-German-owned business.
Another reason is that the future
handling of this work is naturally
within legal lines and can be COM
bined as section of the Depart
ment of Juestice and this work of
controlling enemy-owned property
maintained as long as necessary
without break in it's administra-
ton.
The resignation of Attorney Cen
eral Gregory is the first of a num-
Der expected about March 4. Some
of the men high in the administra-
tion are following the lead of Mr..
McAdoo and selling at the top of
the market, retiring to private life
with the prestige of the war admin
istration untarnished. The places
thus made vacant will be welcomed.
With the recent massacre in Con-
gress, there are a large number of
lame ducks to be cared for. One is
the ubiquitous ]. Ham Lewis of Chi
cago, who is likely to go to Russia
as ambassador so soon as matters
become more settled. Ambassador
Francis, now returning to this coun-
try in very poor health, will not re-
turn. Francis will go to Southern
California, soon after his arrival in
Washington, to gain strength after
his strenuous experiences in the land
of the Bolsheviki, followed by an op-
Grafton in London.

Judge Cole Gives COlOred

Deputy District Attorney Dorsey
Whitelaw is today receiving many
congratulations for the able manner
in which he conducted two criminal
trials, marking his first appearance
before the Superior court as mem
ber of the county legal staff.
He appeared for the prosecution ir
the absence of his chief, District At
torney E. R. Simon, who was in Los
Angeles on an important legal mis-
sion. Mr.. Whitelaw won both of his
cases against odds and his friends be-
lieve he has established himself as a
criminal prosecutor whom the ene-
mics of law and order must fear in
the future.
His second victory of three days
developed this morning when the jury
brought in verdict of guilty against
John William Pritchett, colored boot
logger, who was ably defended by At
torr,ey Atchinson of Calexico.
Brought before Judge Cole for SEN
tence, Pritchett received stiff pun
ishment-a Jail term of six months
and fine of $500. He was charged
with bringing forty-six pint bottles
of whisky into the county in viola
ton of the Nichols "bone dry" ordi-
nance.
Mr.. Whitelaw's first victory was
the securing of the conviction of Jo-
seph .McCaffray of Imperial on a
charge of forgery.
