Davis, charged with the murder of Huey Fox, at Pinos Altos; Shoo Cow, change of venue from Dona Ana, charged with the murder of Harry Patterson; James Reynolds, of the Mimbres, held for indictment and charged with the mur- der of Irwin Moore ; Fitch, of Central, held for indictment and charged with murder; Perfecto Rodriguez, held for indictment, for attempting to kill an officer. The Enterprise has often remarked that in murder cases, at least, that a trial by jury in this county is almost a farce.

Grant county is becoming the dumping ground for criminals from other counties, and will continue to be unless some of them get an occasional sentence.
