- protected members, of the Butte Creek
livestock, Land ft Lumber company la
their conspiracy to fence 20,000 acres of
land In Wheeler county, having been as
aured that President Stelwer, of the
company, who at that time. In 1901,'was
state senator, could be induced to vote
, for George W--4 McBride as United States
senator, rather than for Senator Joseph
Simon, of whom Stelwer had een up to
that lime an ardent supporter.
The main argument made by Judge
Webster for a new -trial was that in
reaching a conviction a sufficient con
sideration j of authorities had not been,
made.- .'
In imposing sentence upon Hendricks
Judge Hunt stated that he had much re
spect for Hendricks' evident Intelli
gence, and that even if Hendricks should
nerve a prison -sentence he .could' still
come out and begin life all over again
with bright respects. Hendricks asked
for-' a day's delay in the execution of
sentence that he might confer with his
attorneys with a view to appealing the
case, ana tnis neiey waa granted.
Judge Hunt stated in connection with
his sentence of WlnlocIc' Wi, Stelwer that
. he considered the crime of conspiring to
fence, the public domain equfcf an ag
gravated case- of fencing Itself, and
that he was inclined; to Impose sentence
