Big MAJORITY
FOR OWNERSHIP
Voters In Thursdays Municipal
Election FAVOR City Our
ing Property.

NinetS-ssz vores rsszS Fvn-y7
in the municipal election held
here Thursday to determine
whether or not the town would
purchase and operate the local
electric light plant and the re-
suit was a decided victory Gor
those favoring municipal own
ership. 81 votes were cast for
municipal ownership and only
8 against
Considerable interest was
taken in this election and most
of the qualified voters living
inside the city limits, including
several women, went to the
polls.
Municipal ownership of the
light plant was decided on at
a meeting of the city council
several weeks ago, provided a
majority favored such action,
when it was learned that the
town would either have to take
over the plant or be in darkness.
The purchase price including
franchise, is $3,000.00
Those opposing municipal
ownership argued that it would
mean an additional tax levy,
but the city council takes the
position that the plant can be
paid for out of revenue already
coming in and that further
tax levy could not be made
without first being voted by
the people.
The city is to take over the
plant at once and Nose Betton
is to continue to operate it.

DAY AT
MASON WELL
Fishing job Comes To Abrupt
End Thursddy--OH ShOU-
ing Good.

While Driller Hackathorne was
at Hope Wednesday making an
other fishing tool to be used at
the Mason No. l test, Drillers
Bunk Clark and Jack Sherrod
abruptly ended the two weeks
fishing job by bringing the re-
naming underreamer lug and
rod to the surface, thereby
cleaning the we'll for action,
The rod was fished out about
1920 o'clock and the lug was
brought to the surface shortly
after noon. Messrs. Clark and
Sherrod were jubllant over this
good lick, called it a day and
came to town, bringing the
"catch" with them in proof of
their statement.
This has been a long and te-
dious fishing job but the drill
lers have stuck to it persistent
ly and news of their good luck
was received with enthusiasm
by everybody.
Thursday morning the drill
lers began cleaning out and
each time the bailer was raised
after drilling an increased a.
mount of oil was noticeable.
They are now running towers
and when the night crew went
on duty Thursday night the
we'll was cleaned out to within
about 225 feet of the bottom of
the hole.
The 6-inch casing has been
set at 2,085 feet and the crew
5-inch which viii be placed or
the bottom for a test. Barring
any further trouble, this will
be accomplished by Monday,
when the casing will be set in
cement. 1t is now highly prob
able that the test will be made
within two weeks.
Optimism prevails on every
hand and it is believed that
the long delayed test of the Ma
son No. l we'll is now, near at
hand. When this is made, there
is little doubt in the minds of
those who have closely watch
ed developments but that she
will "pay off"

FATAL SHOOTING
At COLUMBUS
{. C.. Hamilton Shot By w. II.
Thomson IN, Difficulty Over
Rent Settlement.

Mr.. c. C. (Boob) Hamilton
of Columbus was fatally shot
at $3.50 o'clock Wednesday af-
ternoon by w. H. Thomason. A
38-calibre Cola's revolver was
used and two bullets passed
through the stomach and one
entered the arm. Hamilton was
removed 40 the Josephine Hos
pital at Hope, when an eXami-
nation disclosed that the
wounds extended through the
bowels and one ball passed the
liver. He died Thursday even
ing. Thomason was taken into
custody by constable T. j..
Downs and turned over to Sher-
iff Dodson, who had him placed
under guard pending the out
come of Hamilton's wounds.
His eXaming trial will be held
before Esq. G. w. Stewart of
Columbus.
The shooting occurred in the
public road in front of the home
of Constable Downs and that
officer and several other citi-
zens were eye witnesses to the
tragedy.
Fred Hamilton, son of the
man killed, rented land from
Thomason and they had pre-
viously haG' trouble over a rent
settlement. Thomason was
driving a truck and met Ham
ilton in a wagon and it is said
Thomson stopped his car, got
'vttt, ard asked Hamilton 10 stop
and see him about the settle
ment. Hamilton got out of his
wagon and a quarrel ensued in
which it is alleged that Hamil-
ton advanced with a rock in his
hand. Four shots were fired
by Thomson, one of which
went wild. 1t is said the
shooting began at close range
but the men were about thirty
feet apart when the last shot
was fired.
Both parties to the tragedy
are heads of families and prom
inent farmers of the Columbus
community.
