THE LIST OF ILLEGAL V0TEES-- Jndge Anderson Is In Doubt aid Ad-journs to Enquire Into the Authorities. Lawyer Loofbourow and the respond-ent getting a little off schedule time it was twenty minutes after 10 o'clock this morning whon the third day was begun in the Ferguson-Alle- n "lection contest before Judge Anderson. The court was not in first-clas- s conditional trim and del ays were, manifestly, any-thing but agreeable. Howeve ho af- - fected good nature and another chapter was opened. Mr. Scott, one of tho judges at poll 8 in Bingham, took the chair to testify to his qualification and appointment as a judge. It having been regular counsel for contestant rested and the case for respondent was opened. Albert II. Kolley, who resides in Salt Lake, was placed upon the stand. He testifi ed to having filled the position of judge at poll 1, second precinct. Mr. Brown Wo would like to know at what count in the defendant's reply counsel Is now directing his proof? Judge Loofbourow At the first count in the cross complaint that in poll one second preciuct two votes cast for the defendant were destroyed. Mr. Brown Our object in making this inquiry was to file objection to the right of respondent to file a cross com-plaint alleging that illegal votes or any irregularity occurred. Had he desired to have done this it should have been filed within 40 days after the election. This is specifically set forth by the statute and that our position is a cor-rect an assooiate counsel will show. This was the signal for a protracted debate, The whole train of proceedure was run off on to a side track while a fierce wind of argument brought forth an exceedingly delicate and abstruse problem. , iteuuing irom the statute ana citing California and Alabama authorities, Mr. Bawling contended that the samo was required of respondent in filing his pleadings and complaint as was re-quired by the contestant. This shoul d have boon done, he argued, within forty days after proceedings were bo-gu-and having failed in this, the right to a had perished. Again the statute which Is a copy of that adopted in California prescribes that it is the duty of respondent to file a list of illegal vot-ers with contestant throe days prior, to the beginning of the trial. This had not been done until tho' first day of the trial and the right to show at this time that illegal votes were cast for the con-testant is denied. Judgo Loofbourow contended that it was not incumbent on the defense to file anything whatever within the forty days limit that the summons to ap-pear was not notice to plead. His defense began with the trial and until that was opened no filing of whatever nature was mado an obli-gation under the law. He had ' been regularly declared elected by the board of canvassers, and for him to have cited illegal votes would have placed him' as contesting the election by which he had secured his office. Such a proceedure was unheard of, that the incumbent should file notice of contest. He had a right to make a defensive fight by citing Illegal votes, and it was not required of him to file the list at any time. The list had boon given contestant at the oponing of the trial, which act cov-ered all the requirements of the statute It is simply this that we may serve our list when the hour arrives to plead. Mr. Rawlins denied this and said the remody was for the contestee to have pleaded lack of time in which to pre-pare and file his pleadings and to ask continuance, The statute, he contend-ed, admitted of but one constructed. It was plain that the list of illegal votes should have been served on contestant three days before tho trial. A legisla- ture who iutondod anything else did not have a vory acourate notion of jus-tice. Counsel for defense, he claimed, had sought to keep its hand under cover until it was too late for the con-testant to successfully meet the cross complaint whioh alleges that illegal ballots were cast at Big Cottonwood, Butler, Granite, West Jordan, North Point, Pleasant Grove, Kiverton and Silver. They were not in easy roach and the notice should have boen served as required by statute. , The court thought that in ordinary cases the same rule applied to tho con-testee as to tho contestant. Full and adequate opportunity should be al-lowed both-side- s for preparation. It would seem a hardship, however, for contestant to come in and show that il-legal voles were cast to elect his oppo-nen- t and it would be equally a hard-ship to allow contestee to come in and allege the casting of illegal votes for contestant without giving hiin tho right and time to meet it. The court being in some doubt, con-sulted his watch and at 11:45 adjourned, saying ho would deoide upon the knotty problem at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Tho argument throughout was lis-tened to by a large audience with o iuterest. At 2 p. m. tho court ruled in accord-ance with tho California decision that tho contestant was entitled to a list of tho illegal votes throe days bofore the trial. Judge Loofliurow tendered the three days at this time, and to that proposi-tion Mr. Brown is now speaking. Frnhate Court, The calendar shows the following en-tries in this department!

PUEBLO'S MUEDEEES TO EIDE The Sheriff Will Take Him Back to Pace the Musio The Police Eeoord. The quickest arrest, trial and sen-tence on record was made shortly before noon today in the case of How-ard Thomas a sneak thief who had been arrested for petty larceny. Ten minutes before the vociferous yells of a bevy of ladies callol the attention oi ui-fic- Mathews to West Second South street. At the same mo-ment the officer saw a coat-tai- l cutting aright angle with the spine of its possessor, and picking up his limbs he started forth to beat the world's record. The fugitive was telescoped in the second block and then railroaded to police .. headquarters whore a number of silver spoons that had been carried with one nefari-ous swoop from the table of the Wo-man's Exchange club were taken from his pocket. Judge Laney and At-torney Eichnor were on hand. Both were eager for the fray and rubbed their palms with anxious zeal. Thomas was arraigned and pleaded with unblushing assurance not guilty. The dis-covery of the property on his own perssn was a bluff con-tradiction, the ladies identified him as tho marauder, and Officer Mathews as tho ; fugitive There was no delay. His star had set. "Three months," chimed the court. A moment later Thomas was ushered into the gloom of the hastile. The Murderer Departs.

THE LEAD FAMINE. RECENT RISE IN PRICE CAUSED BY AN IMPOVERISHED MARKET. There Is Claimed to Exist a Shortvge of Over 30,000 Tow for the Year Ship-ments from Mexico and Spain. Lead Is Up to Stay. Wiillcoe (Idiho) Press. ' The recent rise in the price of lead to six cents is no doubt caused by an in-creased demand, which is created by the expansion of various industries pro-duced. .by the growth of the country. For some time the market reports from St. Louis, Chicago and New York indi-cated a short supply of lead, and as a natural result the price had to advance. Although tho product of the American mines received an addition of 33,000 tons from Mexico last yoar all of it was absorbed, and at the beginning of the present year very ' little was on hand. This has since been disposed of, together with the increased product of the Am-erican mines and trade papers, like the New , York Engineering and Mining Journal, claim that the shortage this year will reach fully 20,000 tons. While this may be overestimated, we trust it is true that the demand is greater than the supply, . for this will sustain the price and enable the silver-lea- d miners to get fairly on their feet, as the saying is. But there need be no apprehen-sion on the part of our eastern friends that the shortage will not be met by next spring, without importation from Mexico or Spain, The Cceur d'Alene mines will alone increase their output by the 1st of January to meet whatever shortage' there may be, unless the de-mand should still further increase. The output of tbe Coour d'Alene mines for this year is roughly estimated at 00,000 tons. Next year we may safely count on 100,000 tons. By that time nearly all tho transportation necessary will be provided, and all the mills now being constructed will be turning out their quota. ... The shipmonts of ore from Mexico this year, it is reported, will not be over 20,000 tons, as against 33,000 tons last year, but Spain is sending over pig lead, which can be done profitably when the price reaches $5.15, even with a tariff of $30 per ton. . The outlook is very cheerful for our miners. Lead is up to stay. The de-mand Is greater than the supply. Silve-r- lead mines will be in demand, every development will find capital ready to invest. No camp on earth ever had a brighter future than the Cecur d'Alene. Every lick of work improves our mines or converts a prospect into a producing mine. It should stimulate prospecting and development. , Johnny's Rands. Mother Johnny, you said you'd been to Sunday school.

Smilh of the Bullion-Bec- k had sufficiently recovered from injuries to permit him to return to tho property today. Colorado mining men are still coming intolh8 territory. Pat Biwen one of the oldest in Colorado is here and a big purchase will probably be recordod in favor of New York capitalists in a few days. The Ontario for ten months produced ores of tho value of $570,0o!j,(l8. Regu-lar dividends of 50 cents a share have been distributed each month making a total of $750,000 for the period. Tho Daly has also paid ten regular dividends of 25 cents a share with a total to date of $1,087,500. The tenderfoot has secured a lease on the Dewdrop in Dragon hollow. The new lessees have found tho old tuunel through which the researches were made years ago and from the rock as-says show 307 ounces silver and gold of the value of $5.27 a ton, The Dewdrop promises to enrich all who are inter-ested. Tidings from Deop Creek and tho route of the projected railway into its latitudes are always agreeablo to the readers of the great religious daily. Judge Wampler, after an expedition into the camps of that country, esti-mates that, run in a conservative way, they would furnish from 200 to 300 toils a day to the railroad. Ho saw no min-eral that could not be marketed by rail, but the prospectars cannot afford to jack it out at present cost and do justice to themselves. ( General Connor, who every now and then goes on a still hunt, brings good news from the mines and prospects at Stockton and states that Dry Canon is sending out? considerable ore. The General Connor tunnel has penetrated the formation for a distanco of UiO feet and almost auy shot is liable to unlock the ore bodies. Commenting on the district he recommends its prospects as splendid opportunities for capital and predicts that with proper development they will be among the most productive in the territory. There are large amounts of ore now ready for shipment but no teams with which to deliver it. These evils must be corrected before Stockton will experience the boon? to which natural resources entitle it. |
