CASE IN
DISTRICT COURT

The district court has been in session
all this week in the trial of the case
of Henry Ashbaugh, who is charged
w,th the murder on August of Mrs.
Blanche Tibbetts at her ranch on Can
on creek.
Mr.. Ashbaugh, who was leasing a
portion OF Mrs. Tibbetts' ranch, had

some controversy over some cattle and
on Sunday morning, August 6, Mr.. Ash
baugh, accompanied by his wife and
children, took his % calibre rifle and
went out to shoot some hawks VIII. ch
were bothertng his chickens. The de-
fendant alleges that after he had fired
two shots at hawks, Mrs. Tibbetts
came near his house armed with re-
volver and riding her mare Dolly. 1t
is also alleged that Ashbaugh fired the
other shot at Mrs. Tipbetts after she
had pulled a gun on him.
Considerable time was spent in ques-
tioning W tnesses in regard to a wound
on the left shoulder of the mare Mrs.
Tibbetts was riding when she was shot.
This animal has been killed and the
left shoulder brought in as an exhibit.
The trial is progressing slowly, and

Secretary Hoover Explains
Compact Which Viii Be
Fair to All
FARMS BEFORE POWER

Santa Fe, N. NJ, Nov. 27.-Secre-
tary Hoover, who directed the confer
ence of the Colorado river commission
at Bishops Lodge here, which resulted
in the signing of an interstate COM
pact governing the use of the waters
of the river, issued the following state
ment, after the adjournment of the
sessions:
The Big thing about the Colorado
river compact is that it breaks the
blockade on development of the whole
river; it allows US all to go ahead with
river development and with flood pro-
lection for the Imperial Valley.
1.-The worst thing about the compact
is that it will destroy much oratory.
lone can get great emotion over
conflict and quarrel, but there is no
great oratory about the fact that the
northern bas' N is separated from the
southern basin by 1000 miles of barren
canon; that the agricultural and eco
different and that the logical thing to
do was to divide the waters between
them so that they can make homes
instead of defend ng injunctions
Nor can one make great oratory
of the fact that there is ample water
and to spare after the apportionment
OF water enough to each basin in per-
petuity to cover all of the present
users plus all the known feasible pro-
Jects, plus 80 per cent for good meas
'lre, then holding 80 per cent in re-
serve for forty years to see where it is
most needed.
There is nothing sensational about
a compact that leaves all considera-
tion of Mexican right to water to the
state department, which is the only
organ of the American people which
has any right to deal with this aues-
tion.
There is nothing especially romantic
about the provisions in the compact
for the complete priority of agricul-
ture over power and forestry in the
use of the water of this river.
" Yet behind all the processes of the
common place language of this COM
pact lies the greatness and romance of
the west, the building of a million
more homes out under the blue sky in
security and good will
The compact has side interest,
for with the exception of two other
cases, and these only between states.
this compact makes the FIRST time that
considerable number of states bave
settled fundamental interstate rights
by process of treaty instead of resort
to the supreme COURT

GOVERNOR COMMENDS
SALVATION ARMY

Miss Inez H. LamsOn, field repre-
sentative of the Salvation Army, spent
few days fthis week III our city
and formulated plans for drive for
this most worthy cause, which will be
started in the very near future.
In the following letter Governor
Shoup highly endorses this organiza
tion and the great work it is accomp-
fishing:
Denver, November 10, 1929.
Brigadier Anthony Merraweather,
Divisional Commander,
ls41 Curtis Street, Denver.
My dear MIR. Merriweather:
l am pleased indeed to comply with
your request, and send brief message
of greeting to your conference of Sal
vation Army officers for the states of
Colorado and Wyoming.
There is no greater joy and comfort
given to men than that whieh results
from service to his fellows, and there
has never been time in the world g
history when more of that spirit was
needed than today. Consequently, any
individual who is privileged to be n
part of the great work of spreading
the brotherhood of man, extending the
hand to help lift his halting and fall
ing brothers, is indeed to be commend
cd And so | congratulate you officers
of the great Salvation Army that you
are privileged to be an agency of SC
much good.
Other religious agencies are import
ant, and we trust they will continue in
their mighty work, but there is none
that can take the place of the work
being done by your organization. 1t
Is not only wonderfully adapted for the
work, but through the efforts of such
splendid administrators as you Officers,
it has become SO very efficient that we
wonder how it would be possible for
the public to go on without your in
fluence.
Upon behalf of the people Of Colo
rado, 1 commend your great work in
the highest degree, and at the same
time most heartily congratulate you
that you are privileged to have a part
therein.
Most cordially yours,
(signed) o. H. sHOUP,
Governor.

Prominent Republican Leader
ofNationa| Fame Succumbs
to Pneumonia
He ONCE LIVED here

Denver, Nov. 27.-Archie NJ. Steven
son, prominent national leader in the
republican party few years ago, died
here today after a short illness. He
was GA years Of age.
For many years Mr.. Stevenson rep
resented Colorado in national Republi-
can conventions. In 1912 he was cred
ted, accord ng to associates in this
state, by President Taft as being largely
responsible for Taft S nomination. at
that time.
Mr.. Stevenson settled in Pitkin
Colo, in 1879. He was q former mem
Der of the state legislature.
Brought to this country from Scot
land by his parents when baby, and
forced to struggle for an education, A.
mating figures n Colorado politics for
forty years, and an important influ-
ence in the national councils of the
Republican party for u quarter of
century Eminent as lawyer, it was
as master of the game of politics
that he attained his widest fame.
Until his withdrawal from active
politics two years ago Mr.. Stevenson
was delegate in every Republican
state and national gathering. In state
politics his influence was 80 great that
candidates for office were frequently
nominated or defeated on his word
alone; his Importance in the national
councils became emphasized-in the ma
tional convention of 1912 when he was
known as "the man who forced
through the nomination of Taft"
Representing state comparatively
small in population, Mr.. Stevenson at
tanned his political eminence through
the force of his personality and the
respect which his political judgment
and resourcefulness inspired in his col
leagues.
Mr.. Stevenson only public office
was that of state senator, which he
held from 1887 to 1891. He was Re-
publican national committeeman from
Colorado from 1900 to 1908, and twice
previously served as chairman of the
executive committee of the Republican
state central committee. In 1909 he
was sent to Japan by President TAT.
to settle differences which had arisen
between American citizens and the jap
anese government in regard to land
concessions in Korea. Two years ago
he refused an offer of appointment as
ambassador to the Argentine republic.
"Bold in battle, sagacious in eoun-
cl,' Mr.. Stevenson usefulness to his
party did not cease with his retirement
from active participation in the strug-
giles of conventions The massive, curly
head which so often had reared itself
above all others when he himself was
the center of stormy debates, continued
to take an important part in the inner
councils. For many years few Repub-
lican state platforms have been written
without his advice.
Funeral arrangements for Archie
Mach .chols Stevenson, pioneer attorney
and prom nent in Colorado politician
for more than generation identified
with national political affairs, win not
be completed until the arrival of rela
tives who have been notified of his
death here this morning from pneu-
monia.
Mr.. Stevenson was one of the old
time res dents of Glenwood Springs,
having resided here over thirty years
ago. His sister, Mrs. Hattie Shores, is
