WELL KNOWN COWBOY
TRAMPLED BY STEER

of the Abel & Curtner company and
widely known throughout this Sec
tion of the country as "the cowboy
poet" was quite seriously injured
at the ranch, this forenoon, by be-
ing trampled by steer, resulting
in the loss of an ear and badly
dislocated shoulder.
The injured man was taken to
the county hospital, where he is re-
ceiving the best of medical attention
and careful nursing and it is hoped
that his recovery is only a question
of short time.
was one of his heifers, and it was
some little time afterwards ere he
learned that there was a question
regarding the matter.
Evidence submitted to the Jury
indicates that a heifer was slaught-
cred belonging to Thomas Dooley,
without his consent or knowledge I;
that Charlie Gondra and Joe Sug-
arde slaughtered the animal, labor
ing under the impression that they
were killing heifer belonging to
Steve Boggio; that Steve Boggio
gave to Charlie Gondra and Joe
Sugarde his consent to kill one of
his heifers, but did not accompany
them to the scene of the killing, as
he was busy at the time, and the
thought that they might ramble
around and kill somebody's heifer
other than one of his did not enter
his mind. Boggio does not dispute
Thomas Dooley's ownership of the
animal in question. He. merely dis
claims having been a party to any
conspiracy that brought about the
atrocious murder of the heifer
branded with a LAZY D." Wit
tingly, it's true, assuming that
Boggio's relation of the circum-
stances involved in the homicide
are absolute facts, he gave con-
sent to the killing of a COW brute
on his premises, but his consent
specifically provided for the slaught-
ering of an animal to which he had
honest and rightful title.
For the defense several witnesses
went on the stand and testified
that they have known Steve Boggio
for a long number of years and
that his reputation for truth and
veracity is good; and of the men
testifying some are his close neigh
bors.
The hide of the heifer that has
brought on all the trouble has
played a very prominent part in
the courtroom scenes; and the coun-
sci for the state, counsel for the
defense, a number of the witnesses
and some of the jurors have
handled the hide to such an extent
that it is just about worn ragged.
One of those who have taken part
in the trial said that if the case
should resolve itself into a chung
Jury" at this term of court, some
body was going to be compelled to
make requisition for a new hide at
he next trial, as the present hide
could not stand the wear and tear
my longer that day or two more,
1T best. He said that it would not
be LAZY d." hide much longer
t would be "Worn-out d" hide.
The case went to the jury this
,fternoon, after counsel involved
N the matter expressed its views,
pro and con, in manner that left
10 room for a listener to doubt that
one side had its way the jury
would send Steve Boggio to prison,
While if the other side had its way
Steve would be exonerated without
he jurors finding any excuse for
eaving their seats-jury-box seats,

WORK at Boulder.
"On Monday, DR.. F. L. Ransome,
geologist for the u. S. Geological
Survey, accompanied by Captain
Jennison, left for the scene of oper-
ations, with Walker R. Young, the
reclamation agent at this point. The
gentlemen are going to the Boulder
and Black canyon dam sites to make
surveys of the dam and reservoir
sites.
"Juss stop and figure what this
dam is going to mean to this city
and county. When work commences,
look what must be done. Figure
what gigantic piece of work that
this is going to be. This mighty
dam will rise to height of between
600 and 700 feet, backing up water
for a distance of more than 100
miles, and varying in width all the
way from five to eight miles.
Imagine what a number of men
must be employed to accomplish this
gigantic undertaking.
"The Colorado river is the third
largest river in America. Its aver
age discharge annually for the last
23 years has been about 17,400,-
600 acre feet. That is enough
water to cover 17,400,000 acres one
foot deep. OF the annual dis
charge about 100000 acre feet
now go to waste, as it flows into the
Gulf of California unused. The
water has its origin mostly in Colo

HUMBOLDT CONSTABLE
WINS IN HIGH COURT

CARSON, Nov. 23.-(Special to
The Silver State)-In an opinion
handed down today, the supreme
court reverses a former opinion
i'm the case of N. P. Moore, of Win
nemucca, against Humboldt county.
Moore as a constable in Union
township in Humboldt county, drew
a salary ofe$15o per month and the
Legislature by enactment of a law
cut the salary to SIS a year, thus
practically abolisIling the office. In
the first opinion the court held the
salary cut was legal, but upon a
rehearing, hands, down an opinion
that laws must be uniform and by
abolishing the office of constable
in Union township in Humboldt
county, the legislature must abolish
all constable offices in the state and
therefore the law is illegal, con-
flicting with the state statutes.

A survey of the situation yester-

facts ms follows;
A canvass has bccn made for
the northern Oklahoma, southern
Oklahoma and southern Kansas
producing districts to promote
interest In Saturdays gathering
and report encouraging results.
Several plans of corporation,
among them some innovations OF
striking interest, have been for
