Man Loses
Leg in Sunday
Shooting Scrape
John Skoagland Shot Just Above Right
Ankle by Martin
Davidson.

Martin Davidson is held in the coun-
ty jail charged with assault with a
deadly weapon, and John Skoagland is
lying in the Libby hospital recovering
from amputation of his right foot and
part of his leg as the results of a
shooting fracas in the Davidson cabin
Sunday evening.
The two men tell somewhat conflict
ing stories. Both admit they had been
drinking, so it is said. Skoagland states
that two days before. the shooting
Davidson had got ugly and he (Skoag-
land) had blackened his eye. Sunday,
according to reports, Davidson was
again quarrelsome when Skoagland
started to take a gun away from him.
Whereupon Davidson shot Skoagland
just above the right ankle with 25:20
rifle. The bones of the leg were SD
badly shattered that amputation was
necessary, the leg being taken off about
half way to the knee.
Davidson's story is to the effect that
Skoagland had blackened his eye two
days before after which Davidson had
warned him that if he ever did that
again Davidson would defend himself
Davidson says Skoagland again started
to 'beat him up" Sunday evening and
Davidson responded by shooting
Skoagland Skoagland is an exception
ally large and powerful man.
Davidson was arraigned Tuesday be-
fore Justice of the Peace Haigler
charged with assault with deadly
weapon His preliminary hearing was
set for next week.

Commissioner Brink Says Calls for
Help Are Growing in Number
Destitute and Without Money.

No one realizes the imperative need
for more opportunities for work in this
district than do the county commits
sioners. Scarcely day passes, states
County Commissioner Brink, that he
does not receive appeals for. assistance
from families who are destitute MIR.
Brink states the calls are more nu-
merous now than they were last win
ter.
This plainly emphasizes the need Of
providing I'll possible labor during this
summer and fall, and it is a strong hint
that it is none too early to begin lay
ing plans whereby aid can be extended
next winter. The forest service has an
nounced the expenditure of approx
mately $4,000 within the county with
in the next few months and if federal
state highway project is started rea-
sonably soon it will be Of much assist
ance. But in the meantime, there arc
people living in our midst who claim tf

Bad Automobile
Smash-up on Road
In Ural District
One Car Rolls Over Grade and Both
Badly Smashed-Wom1n Receives
Severe Cut Over Eye.

One of the worst auto smash-ups of
recent months to happen in these parts
was that of Sunday evening when two
cars met in an almost head-on COLI
sion on the state highway near Ural--
it is said on the hill near the Lawrence
ranch.
A party of two Great Falls couples
were travelling west, the two wives
driving one car and the husbands fol-
lowing in another The car driven by
the women met Spokane car on what
was practically straight-away, when
the accident happened. According to
the story of the Great Falls people, the
Spokane man apparently could not see
them although they saw him coming
and pulled clear to one side of the
highway. He struck the forward cor
ner of the Great Falls car a terrific
sidewise blow, the impact Of which
caused the Spokane auto to leave the
grade and roll over several times be-
fore it came to rest.
One of the Great Falls women was
hurled against the windshield which
was badly broken by the impact. She
received bad cash across one eye
brow and cuts and bruises on the legs
No one else was injured aside from
the usual scratches and bruises. ThS
Spokane car carried can of oil and !.
is said the occupants were plastered
with oil from head to foot when they
extricated themselves from the wreck
It is reported the car that went over
the grade was almost demolished. The
forward side Of the Great Falls car
a Durant Six sedan-was badly dam
aged. The headlight and fender were
smashed almost flat against the hood
the light being almost as flat as pan
cake. The front wheel was completely
ruined and the front axle bent bacl
under the car. The hood was alst
racked and smashed

PLANS BEING MADE
FOR BASEBALL TOURNAMENT

Libby baseball fans have been plan
ming on tournament to be held in
Libby on September 3, and at which
teams from all nearby cities would be
contestants. The matter has been dis
cussed with various teams and they
are all anxious to participate If the
plan goes through Kalispell, Whitefish,
Eureka, Rexford and Troy have said
they would have teams here.
1t is not thought the expense would
be very heavy and donations are now
being solicited. If the response is suf-
ficiently large, the tournament will un-
doubtedly be held If it is held, the af-
fair will probably draw goodly sized
delegations from surrounding tonws.
