RANCH HAND IS
BADLY GORED BY
ENRAGED BULL

Badly gored by vicious Holstein
bull and narrowly escaping from the
enraged animal with his life, Charles
Bishop, of the DR.. Stearns' ranch in
the No. 7 district, is today at the
residene Of John V. Taggart, Holt
vile, in a CRITICAL condition.
Bishop was working with the catch
that was snapped to the ring in the
bulls nose when the animal became
enraged and without warning turned
and gored the young man severely in
the left thigh and knocking him down.
While the injured man was en-
deavoring to crawl away, the angry
animal made repeated wicked lunges
at him with his horns, but fortunately
most of these passed on either side of
the PROSTATE mans body. Several
vicious prods, however, inflicted bad
cuts and bruises and tore his clothes,
while bad cut was also inflicted on
the back of Bishops head.

RIVER FOLK
NEAR DEATH
IN DESERT ON
WAY To CITY
Party of Six Persons Es-
cape Horrible End by
Brave Act of Fourteen
Year-Old Son.

! Yuma, July 2.-Walking for more
than twenty-four hours over the hot
summer desert, without water and
without food, lost most Of the time
knowing not in which direction to
look for aid; barefooted, tortured by
heat, and hot sands and stones which
blistered his feet, the fourteen wear
old son Of Anderson Cypert, a pros
porous San Pasqual farmer, proved
himself hero yesterday and was the
means of saving the lives of his
father and mother, his younger sis
tiers and his baby brother.
Mr.. Cypert was q farmer on the
California side of the river, having
held about seventy acres of Indian
leases. Last week he sold out his
holdings to E. F. Sanguinetti and de-
cided on a long vacation after his
years of hard toll.
Saturday night after the sun had
gone down, the Cypert family started
to Portland, Ore. Everything went
we'll until they started to cross the
desert proper. They took the Ogilly
road to the Imperial VALLEY. but two
miles on this side of Ogilly they took
the wrong road and started cross
country to Blythe. After travelling
the Blythe road for only few miles
the car went dead, and the father
started GU for help, SAYING that he
was going to Ogilly. When Sunday
morning came the father had not re-
turned from his search for help. Sun
day morning passed very slowly for
the party stranded out on the desert
and before the noon hour had passed
ali the water had been consumed and
water was being drawn from the rad
iator to stop the awful thirst which
was commencing to rack the bodies
of the stranded travellers.
Sunday noon young Cypert started
across the desert without water or
food.
He finally reached the railroad and
was brought to Yuma on the train.
There he was fed and told his story
A rescuing party composed of Sher
iff Greonleaf and Clarence Dunbar
took the field to rescue the partv out
on the desert Whey they arrived at
the car the occupants were in hor-
rible plight. The father had not re-
turned, the mother had made the rad
iator water go as far as pOssih/, but
that had given out Sunday night, and
four hours the three small children,
and she had to suffer the pangs of
thirst and pray that soon some one
would come to relieve them of to eir
suffering.
The mother and her three children
were given water and then search
was made for the father. He was
found six miles beyond the machine,
lost in the desert, exhausted so that
he could hardly move.

Favorable Oil
Strata Found

Oil excitement, which has been run
ming high throughout the valley for
several weeks, was intensified yester-
day by the announcement bv officials
of the Imperial Valley Oil company,
owners of the James well near Coyote
Wells, that the drill has passed out
cf the hard formation, which has been
hampering work for several. weeks
and is now in a soft shale, large
proportion of which is composed of
asphaltum.
This announcement was made by
j. A. Henry. secretary of the COM
pany, Who arrived from San Diego
Yesterday afternoon and visited the
well.
The soft nature of the asphaltum
shale makes it necessary to case up
the hole, and awaiting the arrival of
a carload of new casing drilling oper-
aticns have been suspended for few
days. The new casing, however, is
expected in a dav or two and then
the drillers propose to continue work,
in the hope of striking the oil sands
very soon.

Through a fortunate chain or cir
cumstances, The Press is today en-
abled to publish the first of two sec
lions of the report of man, whose
name is withheld for the present
suffice it to say that he is a state
official whose position enabled him to
get information which is kept under
cover, on the Associated Dairymen of
California, and it's six affiliated or
CARNATIONS one of which the Impe-
rial Valley MIX Producers associa-
ton. At the proper time his name
will be given and his expert Judgment
in the matter can be better guaged.
This man went out some weeks ago
to get at the truth of kernel OF the
milk situ;)ion in California. He spent
several weeks in this work and now
unofficially reports his results. His
work was not done at the behest of
any private corporation or under their
pay but as state officer. He went
into the matter without prejudice and
the below published report gives his
findings:
In the first place this movement did
not have its inception in any desire
or need of the dairy industry. The
prime movers are a Mr.. J. M. Hender-
erson, Jr., and his associates, all
bankers and capitalists of ,Sacra-
mento, who also, during the last five
years, have each acquired a dairy
farm. 1t appears clear from the sub
sequent actions of Mr.. Henderson in
particular, that this whole movement
was intended, first, to secure them
additional profit on their dairies and
assist in selling land for dairy pur-
poses in the vicinity of Sacramento,
and secondly, that it has degenerated
into an attempt to gain control of
the dairy industry of California.
Who is actually behind this attempt
is impossible to say, but it is known
fact that the Sacramento gentlemen
above mentioned and their group, to-
gether with the banks they control
are closely affiliated with J. Odgen
Armour, Of Chicago. Armour is rap
idly getting into the exaporated milk
business and has acquired control of

half of one percent alcohol, United

bring test suits to establish whether
beverages containing less than two

RE:SC|NDED By
WIRE TODAY

Capt A. n. Miner, examiner in
charge of the local office of the Uni
ted States employment service, today
received en- order from the chief eX-
ecutive officer of the western depart
ment resembling instructions for the
discontinuance of the service and the
immediate closing of the bureau.
The RECESSION was brought about
through the passage in a midnight
session of congress of reduced APP
preparation for the maintenance OF
the service as at present constituted.
1t is likely that some economics will
be effected by tn closing of thos Of
fices where the labor emergencies
created by the war are now erased.
The telegram received by Capt
Miner follows:
Disregard all instructions in my
telegram of yesterday, and continue
operations of your office as usual UNI
til further notice, maintaining friend
ly relations with outside organiza-
tons.
''This is possible by passage yester-
day of reduced appropriations which
permits operation of the Employment
Service. Advise by right telegram
your proceedings. Boyce."
In commenting on the effect of yes
terday's Wire ordering the closing OF
the office Can't. Miner said: 81 was

Elementary remarks made by ranch
ers, business men and working mer
over the service rendered by this bu-
reau. To say they were wrought up
ever discontinuance of the office
would be phrasino it too mildly.
For the ,Republican congress to
cut eff the employment service with
out support, simply because it was
a Wilson creation, would have meant
the loss of many thousands of votes
to the party. am very glad that
this service so vital to ranchers anC
all lines of business in the valley has
been preserved"

WOMAN ESCAPES
WITHOUT INJURY

Although she was struck and
dragged nearly twenty feet by Ford
automobile driven by j. A. Freeman,
a rancher, Mrs. Dewey White of
Commercial avenue, escaped a hair
raising experience this afternoon
practically without injury.
For a time it was thought tlvlt she
might have suffered internal injuries
but an examination in the offices of
DR.. Luckett disclosed that minor
bruises and a bad-shaking up cQnsti-
tuted her only hurts.
Mrs. White was walking across
Main street just above the intersec-
ton with Fifth when Freeman's car
rounded the corner. She probably
saved her life by grabbing at and
holding on to the radiator of the car,
which prevented her from being
dragged under the wheels.

appeals to hiS. He has and is
eagerly endorsing this movement
urging the milk men to combine for
higher prices-telling them they must
get more ON account of high feed
costs, and at the present moment is
alsobusily engaged in organizing the
Alfalfa Growers association to raise
the price of alfalfa hay. He is prom
ising price of $4,000 per ton, which
is entirely out of reason, considering
that only one item of the cost OF
hay production has increased-labor.
One of his stock arguments for form
ing these associations to raise the
price of milk is that the price of feed
is high. -.4A.A aA1ll

than a score persons came from

Washington, July 2.-Congress in
session which continued until last
night ;sS midnight, enacted all appro-
priation bills needed for the various
departments for the new fiscal year
which began yesterday, then adjour-
ed to meet again Tuesday, when it is
expected President Wilson will pre-
sent the treaty of Germany. While
the senate is debating that document
the house will resume it's considera-
tien of the prohibition enforcement
legislation.
The indications now are that the
treaty fight will be a straight con-
test over the unqualified ratification
it seemed certain that the opponents
cf the league of nations will aban-
don any plan for formal declara-
ton on the subject before the dis
cussion of actual ratification of the
treaty begins. 1t is believed that the
opposition will favor the ratification
with the reservations Senator Root
suggested. The presidents support
ers are preparing to fight for the ac-
ceptance of the covenant without the
alteration of single provision.
