LeRoy Cleared of Shooting Charge by Jury Verdict
E W Leroy was acquitted in district court last night of shooting at Clarence Penland. The trial followed a summer incident near Mathies Yard when a man approached and fired, narrowly missing Penland and a young woman. Witnesses testified to Leroy's good character and the verdict reflected reasonable doubt given the single accuser and after-dark circumstances.

Artesian Basins Found in Southern Idaho and Oregon
Professor Israel C. Russell of the U S Geological Survey reports four promising artesian basins in southern Idaho and Oregon. The Snake River basin extends from Glen’s Ferry west past the state line into Oregon, with wells yielding water and potential petroleum. The piece notes a long basin about 130 miles, covering the Snake River valley and adjacent regions, including Willow Creek and Owyhee areas.

Artesian Water Prospects in Oregon and Idaho Basins
Professor Russell surveys four artesian basins in Oregon and Idaho. The Harney basin near Harney and Malheur lakes appears largest with potential for at least 1600 square miles below the artesian head. The White Horse basin east of Stein’s Mountain may yield flowing wells over about 100 square miles. The Otis valley basin covers roughly 60 square miles, and the Beige valley area could extend over 700 square miles. Concern exists over drilling practices and casing, as many wells fail or decline due to improper construction.
