Fruit company returned last week
from six weeks trip east, visiting
the principal fruit growing sections.
He reports, according to his inyesti-
cations, a heavy crop of early ap-
Piles and peaches, but the winter va
rieties not quite so plentiful; yet,
the y.e,d will not fall very short of
the 1928 production. Mr.. Palumbo
states that financial conditions, al
though not very serious, are not
quite up to the usual standard.
Before leaving Chicago. Mr.. Pa
Jumbo made up a carload of house
hold effects, including a beautiful
Dodge sedan, which came q few DAYS
after his arrival here. Since his re-
turn he has given most of his atten-
ton to handling OF potatoes, hay-
ing shipped to date ten carloads, the
quality and yield being far above the
average. and the prices fairly good.

SHE WASN'T FAT ENOUGH

Jess Wells. who has the reputa-
ton of picking up about all the cat
tie in the country, had adopted new
method of looking them over, which
was tried out for the first time last
Sunday night while coming from the
Payette lakes. An old COW using the
highway for a parade ground stepped
in front of ]. LIS new Buick in time
to take a ride on the radiator. She
didn't look good to jess SO he
stopped and let her off. "A few
scratches on the Buick seem to be
about all the damage done. The old
cow hit for the woods, and If she
hasn't stopped she's going yet.

PAYETTE CASE
IS REVERSED

Conviction of Patrick Albert ShorI
Of Payette for statutory rape, al
legged to have been committed in
December. 1921, has not been af-
firmed by the supreme court.
In an opinion by Justice William
E. Lee late Monday. concurred in
BY all the court except Justice Bulge
the court reverses the conviction,
permitting" but not ordering a
new trial.
The court found that IN the trial
court Of Judge B. S. Varian evil
dence which had a vital bearing on
the case was not brought out be-
cause companions OF Short and the
complaining witness were not ques-
toned thoroughly.
Embarrassment of witnesses, the
opinion says, should not be too
carefully considered when the guilt
or innocence of an accused is to be
determined"
Whether a new trial should be or
dered is left TO the good judgment
of those whose duty it is to deter
mine the matter. Capital News.

MAKES ANOTHER
LIQUOR HAUL Al:

! Two bootleggers were landed in
the Payette county Jail Wednesday
I night and one placed under guard
/ at the Bancroft hotel with thre,
bullet wounds in his leg, following z
gun battle with Payette county Off
GERS. The Trio are Fred Duball, re-
! leased from the county jail June 2S
after serving a sentence on a liquor
| charge, Alex Robinson and H. r
! Hickman of Canyon county. Hick-
man SIS known by the Canyon coun-
ity officials and believed to be a
! bootlegger in a wholesale way
The PLOT which led to the arrest
of the men was managed by Sheriff
Jefferis. Two deputies. not known to
! the men now under arrest, had ar
ranged for the purchase of five gal
Ions of liquor from Duball, which
was to be delivered Wednesday eve
ming at. point just east of the On
tario corner north of Fruitland. The
liqQor, however, had previously been
cached in the weeds along the high
way, two gallons in one place and
three at another place near by.
When Dubah arrived in an auto he
was accompanied by Robinson and
Hickman. Upon making delivery of
the two gallons. one of the deputies
exposed his badge and declared the
three men under arrest Duball, who
evidently held gun in his hand, re-
sisted the arrest with threatening re-
marks and showed the gun into the
deputy's face, but the gun was
Knocked from his hand. At this.
Duball struck the deputy. knocking
him TO the ground. When the deputy
came to his feet Hickman stepped
in and knocked him down again.
and started toward where Duball's
gun had fallen. The deputy then
drew his gun and fired three shots
at Hickman, who endeavored to es-
cape. but ran into a wire fence. all
three bullets taking effect in Hick-
mans leg between the knee and hip,
No, resistance was offered on the part
of Robinson. Duball having made
his escape, his two partnes were
brought to Payette where Hickman
was given surgical aid by DR.. /. r.
woodward. In response to a tele
phone message by Sheriff Jefferis.
Duoall was arrested at Ontario few |
hours later by Night MarchaI Far
mer aud brought to Payette at four !
o'clock this morning by Sheriff JEFF /
ferris, Deputy Christian. accompanied
by Prosecuting Attorney Haynes. 1t |
is quite probable that a more serious
charge than bootlegging will be
brought against Duball and Hick-
man.
