Two Men Arrested After Stealing Newman Rig Near Granite Canon
Les Snow and Frank Jones, sworn deputies, captured the intoxicated men nine miles south of Granite Canon after they allegedly stole a rig from J. M. Newman in Cheyenne.

The value of the rig is about 400 dollars and a legal outcome depends on settling debts and lodge verification.
