FINAL CHAPTER
in SMITH SERIAL
JURY SAYS 1850 AND 10" FOR
A S S A U 1T c A Sc
DEFENDANT

Finley Smith of Poplar came VI
before Judge Charles Gordon Sat
urday on an assault and battery
charge. Complaint in the case
was signed by j. Wesley Taylor
of Poplar who alleged that on
June 22 last Smith slapped his
face and inflicted various fistic
injuries on his person.
June % fell on Saturday, and
by the time the technical form
alties were disposed of and the
case came up before Judge Turner
of Poplar it was Sunday, the %.
So the case was tried on Sunday
the 23d, and thereby hangs tale.
or maybe a serial for it has been
continued through several chap
tiers, and has given opportunity
for considerable forensic frenzy.
"GuiIty," go Days
When brought before Judge
Turner, Smith pleaded guilty and
was sentenced to serve 80 days in
Jail. That was all right with Fin
ley. He didn't then know that it
wasn't legal to have a sentence
passed on Sunday. Then he let a
lawyer take his case, and that 80
days began to look like long,
long time, and Finley thought
maybe he would like to get out
before that time. So petition for
a writ of habeas corpus was pre-
sented to Judge Paul. Judge Paul
denied this, but held
that the sentence passed on Sun
day by Justice Turner was void by
reason of it's having been given on
Sunday. This ruling by the judge,
which will incidentally stand as a
in Montana courts, did !
not, however, automatically set |
Smith free and Judge Paul ruled |
hat he would have to have an
,ther hearing.
Then Smiths attorney got a
.hange of venue to Judge Gordon's
,ourt and the case came to trial
,efore a jury of six men last Sat
rday. Appearance in the court
DOM is no novelty to Smith and
lie has been rather bored by the
mass of argument necessary to
Intangle the legal intricacies of
he case. But Saturday afternoon
yhen put on the witness stand he
yaked up and told the jury about
ONE of the neat boxing blows he
ried on Taylor.
So the jury went out, and came
4 with a verdict of guilty and a
sentence of ten days
l Jail and a $50 fine. The jury
as composed of H. A. Geringer,
brennan, Ole Erickson, ]. w. Ross,
ames Boyd, Joseph Montgomery
nd Fred Schafer.

Smiths attorney asked for /
.ay of execution so that he might
ppeal the case, and Judge Cor {
On granted him until ten o'clock I
uesday morning in which to file 7
lie necessary bond and papers. s

WYOMING A MATE FOR MONTANA
RICHES AWAIT DEVELOPMENT
FACTS GATHERED WHILE THE
EDITOR ROAMED WYOMING
WITH THE GANG

Like Montana, Wyoming's great
est need and greatest ambition is
more development of it's vast
natural resources. The industrial
forces Of Wyoming are striving to
attract and interest more people
and more capital. 1t is far less
developed than Montana. It's cit
les are smaller than those of
Montana and it's total population
is considerably less than half that
of this state.
Give Us People
In the tours over Wyoming
made by those who attended, at
Cheyenne, July 20 to "a, the 44th
annual convention Of the National
Editorial association, as guests of
the state and the communities
visited, it was frankly said and
often repeated: "Our motto is
Wyoming Worth Knowing. We
want you to know it better in or
der that you may appreciate its
wonderful possibilities. We want
to interest you, in the hope that
you will interest others, some of
whom may come from the crowd
ed eastern and middle states and
join us. We have room for many
more people than we have"
The Wyoming missionaries do
not expect to draw people from
the western states, such as Mon
tana and Idaho, which are carved
out of the same great western en-
pire of mountains and plains. |
Montana and Wyoming have many
resources in common-dry land
and irrigated farming, sheep, cat
lie, range land, coal and metal |
Oil and Sugar
In irrigated lands, coal and |
sugar beets our neighbor state
has a slight margin over
is, and her oil supremacy is un-
Questioned. But in dryland farm
metal mines products,
ind lumber, Montana has a big
Idvantage. With no great differ
,nce for either in sheep and cat
lie.
Federal Control
Speakers at the numerous lun-
heons and evening banquets,
,iven in honor of the visiting
newspaper folks, often repeated
he statement that two-thirds of
he area of the state is still un-
er federal control of one kind
T another-oil reserves, forest
eserves, unentered land, national !
arks. We heard often t hat
heep and cattle offered big op- ]
ortunities. "The sheep men are
he ones who have got rich II re- ;
ent years." they said. The herds
both sheep and cattle have wide |
ange on the sage lands in many
f the large counties, with little
inderance from nestors. T h e
rairies furnish grazing for the
Iock in the early part of the sum-
Ter and the green foot hills and t
mountains in the late 4

 Fourteen leaders were present at the Leaders association meeting on tuesday evening. This associa- ton will meet every third Tuesday of the month.
 T think our high school girls are to be commended for their cooperation during Girl Scout week. It IS hoped that scouts will wear their uniforms to school all week. Formerly no high school girl had the courage to face the questions and remarks of the other pupiIs, but this year l know of at least live girls who have worn their uni forms 10 high school every day this week, This marks a change in at nude toward girl scouts and I hope next year will see more scouts wearing their uniforms to school.
