Lone Star Connects With
GasSers in Garvin Field

Connection with the gassers in the
Robertson field Of Garvin county has
been made by the Lone Star Gas
company through the S.inch line leased
from the Magnolia Petroleum COM
pany, according TO latest reports. and
the running of the production was
started Thursday. The leasing Of the
line TO the Lone Star followed recent
action of the corporation commission
which ordered the original owners TO
pro.rate all the gas in the field rather
than run its own only as was alleged
was being done. The operators of the
Robertson field owning gas produc.
ton are far from satisfied yet. due
to the price which the Lone Star is
paying them for the gas at the wells
and which, according 10 one Of the pro-
ducers who was here last night. is six
cents. The producers point out that
the gas is run into the lines of the
Lone Star at Fox and feel that they
are being unjustly treated in thar
ten cents is being paid for gas at

TWO ELKO COUNTY
OFFICIALS OUSTED

Elko. Nevada, April 22.-George
Cotant, County Constable was re-
moved from Office by Judge j. A.
Callahan last Saturday. following
trial of an custer suit brought against
him by the Elko County Grand Jury.
The court found that Cotant prom
ised protection to Frank Cudney,
road house keeper. in the sale of in
toxicating liquor. and that he wit
messed the sale Of intoxicants and con-
sented to the transaction.
Cotant's trial followed that of Guy
Harbin, deputy sheriff, ~hose trial
was halted without conclusion Tues
day by his removal from Office by
Sheriff Joseph Harris.
The charges against Hardin. like
wise brought by the grand jury. were
similar to those against Cotant, and
the deputy sheriff's removal came
close on the submission of damaging
evidence against him.
Frank Cudney. his wife and young
son testified to having bought liquor
from Harbin. Delivery the boy said,
was sometimes made at the rear of
the court house. Cudney is now serv-
ing term in the county Jail for vio-
lation of the liquor laws. He said he
had paid Harbin about $2,500 for
liquor which he retailed at his road
house.
Cudney testified that he had drunk
whiskey with Cotant at various places
in and around Elko, and A. Capriola,
Elko night watchman, testified that
he had been told by Cotant to watch
certain places, but to make no ar
rests.
Cudney was arrested when the road
house was raided by Sheriff Harris,
Deputy Hardin and Constable Cotant.
The removal of the latter two from
Office was largely due to the testi-
mony of the Cudney's.
