Newton Stanley, Jr., son of New

known farmer who owns a farm in

north of west of Winnemucca, but
who is now living with his wife
and part of his family in Lake.

schooling some of the children
who admits to the shooting of Boni-
facio Yragui, a herder Of sheep,
last Sunday afternoon between the
hours of 8 and o'clock, was
brought in here in charge of Sheriff
G. w. Brady last night from Al
turas, California, the party who
had accompanied the sheriff on his
auto trip after Stanley, consisting
of 7. E. Powell, representing the
district attorneys office, Justice of
the Peace James Ritchie, and auto
driver, C. E. Haviland, arriving at
9:l5, the prisoner giving not the
least trouble from the time the Of
ficers departed with him from AL
turas, where he had been held in
Jail pending the coming of officers
from this county, to their arrival
here.
A. X. Wylie, a member of the law
firm of Robinette & Wylie of AL
turas, California, is here holding
conference with Stanley, the firm of
Robinette & Wylie having been, re-
tanned by Newton Stanley, Sr., to
defend his son; and on just what
grounds Mr.. Wylie will wage de-
fense and ask for the acquittal of
his client will hinge upon the YER
sion of the affray rendered by
Stanley to the attorney, and without
knowledge of any statement that
Stanley may have made other than
that which he is alleged to have
made to man named Rusow, who
was at the Stanley place when STAN
ley came in home from the scene
of the killing, it is safe to assume
that the defense will be based
upon justification, !. e., that STAN
ley shot Yragui in defense of his
own life, and as he is the only
witness to the tragedy that it is
possible to arraign for or against
him, in the trial, the prosecution
must, necessarily, be able to intro
duce almost incontrovertible cir
cumstantial evidence that will shat
ter claimed self-defense. if a con-
viction is to be secured.
Charles Rusow, farmer-neighbor
residing not far distant from where
Newton Stanley, Jr., is homestead
ing, made statement to officials
of which the following is a per-
tinent digest:
ION the morning of the 18th of
September-the day the affair oc-
curred-I was over at Stanley's
place, and Stanley and myself went
up the canyon about mile east
of the Stanley ranch to sheep
camp owned by Wade Snyder and
got a mutton from Snyder.
while We were at Snyder's sheep
camp We saw a cloud of dust from
what was apparently a band of
sheep and after we had dinner at
the camp, Stanley and myself took
the mutton back to Stanley's ranch;
and Stanley saddled horse, took
5000 rifle and went off in the direc-
ton of where we had seen the raise
of dust while l stayed at the ranch.
Sometime later Stanley came
back with his hand all bloody and
on my asking him what was the
matter, he told me, Il got shot l
asked him, how did it happen?'
and he said, sheepherder shot
me- asked him where the man
was and he pointed towards the
ridge that runs between Pole can
yon and another canyon and said

A Marrow Escape-

a Marrow Escape
Mrs. Ida Diehl suffered a painful
laceration of the eyeball of her left
eye Tuesday night from a piece Of
glass that was lodged between the
wire and frame of screen door. In
closing the door the glass was dis
lodged and struck Mrs. Diehl in the
eye. DIR. M. H. Crocker was imme-
diately called, made an extraction
of the fragment Of glass, which
gave the sufferer prompt relief,
without the least impairment Of
vision, and Mrs. Diehl is congratu-
lating herself over her fortunate
escape from serious injury.

.BUCKsK|N MINE
WILL SOON START
Machinery Is Going Into Place,
Buildings Are in Process of
Erection, and Mine Will
Be Ready Shortly

Commissioner John Bell returned
yesterday from trip to the Buck
skin mine. Mr.. Bell says the work
preliminary to actual mining op-
erations is advancing as fast as can
reasonably be expected and if no
untoward happenings occur it is
quite probable that shaft work will
be under way within the next two
or three weeks.
Carpenters are now busily en-
gagged in the construction of kitchen,
eating house and the other build
ings essential to the maintenance
of mining camp.
The operators who have taken
direct charge of the Buckskin min
ing proper are, as might be expect
ed, exceedingly optimistic regard
ing the potentialities of the mine,
and if it fails of relinquishing an
immense quantity of ore of a rea-
sonably high milling grade they will
be somewhat disappointed. but from
what knowledge has been gained of
the hidden resources, resultant from
previous work, there is no reason
for not thinking that the mine will
make handsome returns on the in
vestment and labor involved.
A large part of the machinery has
been installed in place and with
fittings and connections adjusted the
mine will soon be ready to lift the
ore.

A Newspaper That Serves
GRAPES FOREVER

The wine merchants and liquor
dealers OF Europe have raised a
gigantic sum of money to combat
the spread OF prohibition. They
have formed an organization for
that purpose. They say they are
fighting defensive battle. But
their program looks rather ag-
gressive. They consider America
the center of the prohibition move
ment and are sending men and
money over here to fight it. 1t is
not their purpose, they say to abol-
ish prohibition in America. They
simply want to keep it out OF Eu-
rope. Ii they can keep prohibition
confined to the United States their
money will be we'll invested
The grape industry is one OF the,
foremost in France. They are gath
ering an exceptional harvest there
this year. The yield is estimated at
o. million hectolitres, augmented by
seven millions from Algeria. This
is considerably above the average.
In addition to being abundant, this
vintage is expected to prove of rare
quality.
1t is only natural that man or
a group OF men would be antagon-
istic to anything that threatens to
destroy his business. This is the
attitude the grape growers OF Cali'
fornia took in 1918. Prohibition
would ruin them, they complained
Fortunately, however, it hasn't. The
grape is a staple product. American
jobbers and grocers find a ready
sale for it in new forms. 1t nc
longer finds its way into the wine
press, but scientists are finding Z
way for it. nevertheless.
Rather than take up a die-hard
fight against prohibition, th' grape
growers and wine merchants OF
Europe would better take SEN
>ible, busircss-like attitude toward
lit. BY using this money in a thor
ough investigation OF the way the
grape is faring in America since
prohibition, and by scientific re-
search to discover new uses for it
they could be prepared for prohibi-
ton if it comes to them. 1t is not
likely that it will reach the conti-
nent very soon. In the meantime
they could be cutting down on their
stocks.
They have less to fear from pro.
hibition than they think for. There

EDITORIAL
OF THE DAY
STUDY ALL CONTESTS.

Many men and women already have
their minds made up in regard 10 the
race for governor of Oklahoma and
for the congressional representatives
from this state. The candidates for
governor and for congress not only
have extensively presented their causes
personally and by means of advertising,
but through friends and party allies.
They will continue in the lime-light
right up TO election tins.
However there are many other races
which should receive the careful con-
sideration Of the voters. AS matter
OF fact, there is no political contest
which is so trivial as TO warrant lack
OF interest on the part of the voters.
If an office is of sufficient Importance
10 pay some one a salary 10 fill it,
certainly it is sufficiently important
10 impel the voters TO do their best
to elect someone who will earn his or
her salary BY administering the po-
sition efficiently.
Undoubtedly there are many men and
women who have paid little, If any, at
tention TO any Of the pending political
contests besides the races for governor
and for congress. This is unfortunate.
because lack Of knowledge about the
various candidates and the things they
stand for will prevent as intelligent
voting as is TO be desired.
The election will be held next Tues.
DAY. Before that time, every voter
should study the list Of candidates for
the legislature and for other offices so
that when they so into the election
booths they will know for whom TO vote
in order to obtain the best administra-
ton Of public affairs. Voters should
not put this off untll election day and
then depend, as voters have done before,
upon the advice of the first friend they
meet.-Daily Oklahoman.
