    Plan for
Summer Comfort
Don't add the heat of a
kitchen fire to the sufficient
discomfort of hot weather.
Use a New Perfection Wick
Rlne Flame Oil Cook-Stove
and cook in comfort
With a "New Perfection Oil Stove the preparation of
daily meals, or the big weekly "baking," is done without
raising the temperature perceptibly above that of any other
room iu uic rouse
If you once have experience with
NEW PERFECTION
Wick Blue Flame 00 Cook-Stove
you will be amazed at the restful way ia which it
enables you to do work that has heretofore overheated
the kitchen and jourself.
The "New Perfection" Stow is ideal for summer
use. Made ia three sixes and all warranted. If
not at your dealer's, write our nearest agency.
SAM SMITH ON TRIAL
Continued from first p&ge.
said, you get down and fix the
barn. I got off my horse, handed
him the reins went into the barn
and scattered the contents of the
coal oil bottle over the woodwork;
started a fire by a piece of candle
Smith had given to me about a
mile down the road. Matches
were given to me at the same time.
From the barn we went to the
shearing plant. Smith got off his
horse here and set this building on
fire while f held his horse. After
leaving the buildings we rode
around a little butte and down
toward Crooked river, just lo lay
it onto the Crooked River fellows,
and returned and came back by
the butte just mentioned. Here
we separated for a ways and Smith
went up onto the butte to see if
the fires were burning, remarking
as he did so, "I don't want to have
lo make another trip up here to
finish this job."
There was no signs of a fire in
the shearing plant and Smith said
that that was the main thing and
we must get it. I said something
about getting out of that vicinity
but Smith insisted and we went
back and he went in and set it on
fire; this time in a box that was
used in sacking wool, saying, as he
came out, that it was better than
any candle. We went home by an
indirect route."
Every detail of conversation and
every circumstance in connection
with the execution of these deeds
was described by Elliott, including
the routes covered by both in go
ing and coming from the shearing
plant; the horses that each of them
rode and the various precautions
taken to prevent discovery.
Concerning the burning of the
Williamson sheep camp two days
later the witness said in part:
"In two or three days I (Elliott)
went up to Smith's again and he
said that we would go and burn
that sheep camp now. We went
into his (Smith's) smokehouse and
got a lot of squirrel poison and six
cans of concentrated lye and two
parts of sacks of salt. . We mixed
the squirrel poison with one lot of
salt and put the lye in our pockets.
I took three cans and he took
three. As we were about to start
Ceole Smith said, "I'll bet you fel
lows get caught." Mrs. Smith gave
me a little box of lard that was to
be put on our fingers in case any
of the lye got on us. I put the box
of lard in my pocket. We got our
horses and went onto Williamson's
range, and after we got within
about a mile of the camp we eat
a lunch that had been prepared at

Smith's place and cut the lids off
the cans of lye and mixed it with
the salt I had. We went on to the
camp and Smith got down and
went into the tent, poured coal oil
onto the things in there and set it
afire with a email piece of candle,
while I held his horse outside,
We then got onto our horses and
scattered the salt with the squirrel
poison and lye in it around the
sheep corral."
A part of Elliott's evidence coy
ering the fence cutting was as fol
lows:
"Well, I was up there that day
and he said to come back that
night and about 8 o'clock I got on
a horse and went up to Smith's.
Stanley and Mr. Smith rere about
ready to go and we got their horses
and went up the Ochoco until we
came to one of Mr. Williamson's
fences, and as we wanted to go
through there, anyhow, we cut
about 200 or 300 yards of it and
went on up the Ijill through his
pasture. On the top of the hill we
cut about a quarter of a mile of it
and then went on to the corner of
the fence. Here my horse got loose
from Stanley and when I got it
again a part of my bridle-rein was
gone. Mr. Smith said it did not
make any difference and gave me
a rope to lead the horse with. Yes,
the next time I saw the bridle
rein Mr. Elkins had it and that
was the day I was arrested. Yes,
we cut a lot of the fence along
there, about a mile of it, I think.
We cut every wire. There were
four wires and we cut them on
each side of every poet". Yes, it
was hard work and I got pretty
tired. Mr. Smith and Stanley
changed off, one leading the horses
awhile and the other using the
pinchers. The pinchers we used
were just common horseshoeing
pinchers. The posts were about
twenty feet apart, I guess, but am
not sure about that. We cut the
wire until we came to a place
where the fence had fallen down
and then we got on our hort-es and
went home. I got home just a lit
tle before 1 o'clock in the morning.
What was said by the defendant
about this time about personal
violence to Mr. Williamson was
asked the witness,. "Well, he said
that he didn't intend to quit fight
ing him. If he didn't go back
where he belongs I have got a
scheme that will put him to go
ing." Smith said that if I would
go with him we would take a lot of
dynamite that he had and we
would put it into a box and place
it on Williamson's porch and that
we would light the fuse and then
put it out and let Williamson find
it there and if that did not scare
him we would Mow him up.
When I said that would kill the
fmiilv, too, Mr. Smith ssid that
that s right and that wo IkhI
ln-tter taken gun and gvt in the
brush along the road and get Wil
liamson some time as lie .. going
up to the plant. -
Did he say anything alout
Williamson V wool. ' Yes, h said
that as the wool was taken out of
there this spring we would get a
lot of coal oil and follow the
wagons up and coal oil the wool
and burn it right on the wagons.
What was raid to you in the
presence ol your wife about the
turning. I mean before your ar
rest? "I told Mr. Smith that thev
were accusing him of burning the
plant and that tracks had been
followed down to his place. He
said that you know yourself that
is not true for that is not within a
mile of the way we went. We did
not come through the big pasture.
I don't care what they say, though,
just so they cannot prove it. 1
will go down to town and put
different ideas into people's heads."
The cross-examination of Elliolt
was conducted by J. K. Weather
ford, assisted by his partner, Mr.
Wyatt and occasionally by Mr,
Barnes In this examination the
fact that some of these plots had
been talked of as Ions as six
months ago was brought out.
Nothing further was developed
to materially change Elliott's testi
mony with the exception of the
hour when the party left Smith's
house to cut the fence.
A sensation was sprung in coutt
today (Friday, May 8) just before
adjournment for dinner. George
Taylor, the 12 year-old son of J. F.
Taylor, testified that he overheard
the conversation between C. Sam
Smith and his son Stanley jester
day afternoon when passing them
in the court yard. Smith told his
son, "Now you must stand pat
Stanley, when you get on the wit
ness stand, and not give anything
away." Stanley answered, "Well,"
and nodded his head.
The other witnesses called by
the state after Elliott got through
are: Wess Allen, an employe of
Williamson, Chester Starr, Sheriff
Frank Elkins, Bert Barnes, Arthur
Scars, William Elliott, father of
Larkin Elliott, Oscar Craiu, an
employe of Williamson, T. II. La
follette and George Taylor.
Most of these witnesses were
called for the purpose of substanti
ating the evidence of Elliott, and
to testify about what was -found
after the crimes were committed.
Sheriff Elkins introduced as evi
dence the coaloil bottle found in the
barn; also a piece of bridle-rein
and cans that had contained lye
that is supposed to have been min
ed with salt and scattered on the
ranges by Elliott and defendant
Besides this he explained to the
jury the tracks that were found in
the vicinity of the plant and
emphasized the statement thit at
times the horses had gone on op
posite sides of trees, exploding the
theory that Elliott alone com
mitted the crimes and that the
second horse was led by him.
Dick Miller, the witness who has
been fleeing from the authorities,
has not been served with a subpena.
On Friday afternoon James Rice
was called to the witness stand and
testified that Smith had told him
on one occasion that Williamson
lived in a fine house and rode in
rubber-tired buggies, while he
(Smith) lived in a cabin. Rice's
evidence was to the effect that
when Smith was trying to sell him
hay to feed to sheep, one reason
Rice had for not purchasing hay
of Smith was that range for sheep
was limited in the vicinity of the
haystacks. It was offered by the
state to show the malice that ex
isted between the two men, which,
according to the theory of the state
was responsible for the deeds done.
II. C. Chase testified that Smith
had told him that Williamson had
him (Smith) where he could not
help himself; that Williamson used
all the range in that country so
that no other sheepmen could come
there and feed his hay.
Mrs. Larkin Elliott was the last
witness to be called by the state.
Her testimony covered the dates of
the burnings and mentioned the
evening on which the fence was
cut. All of her husband's testi
mony concerning the dates and
hours when he left home was cor
roborated. Her testimony was substantially
as follows: "Did you know where
Lark went on the day the camp
was burned?" "Yes."
Did he tell you the next day
what had been done? "Yes."
"What time did Lark leave
home on the morning otitis ar
rest?" "AUmt 9 o'clock in the
morning."
"What time that day did Mr.
Smith com down?" "About 5
o'clock in the evening."
What did he say to you wld n
he came?" ' He said he wanted to
talk to me. He asked where Lark
was and I told him that he had
gone to town with the sheriff.
Well he said don't let that worry
you, I will go "down and get him
out all right, we will get the best
lawyers in the state out here nd I
will aptHar on the other side
againxt him and will get him
bonds and it wont cost him any
thing, don't you worry about that.
The most important thing is not to
mention my name. I came after
that plow. I did not need it but
it made a good excuse. I don't
want to he seen talking to you."
Then he went home and I came to
town that evening with Mr. Dobbs
and stopped at Mr. Ward Cram's.
Yes, Mr. Smith came there and
wanted to know why I didn't get a
lawyer. I told him that they were
all retained on the other side. He
said that he could get Mr. Barnes
all right, but "don't you worry
and don't mention my name."
"Yes, I told him that Mr. Cram
was at the barn and Mr. Smith
told me that we would Ret the
best lawyers in the state.
Were you present at any tune
after that and before Lark's arrest
when a conversation was going on
between the two men? Yes.
"'hen and what was said? That
was on Saturday before Lark's ar
rest on Tuesday. Lark told him
that the tracks had been followed
down through his pasture and to
his house. Mr. Smith said, "Lark
you know better than that W
did not come within a mile of
that way. I don't care, though
what they say, for thev can't
prove anything.
That bridle-
rem is no evidence. I will go to
town and show the people what
Williamson is doing and put dif
ferent ideas into eople a heads
In the croHM-exntnlnntton of Mm
Elliott, the attorneys made vigorous
effort to find It nn ngrveineut had
