The attempted train robbery down in
Kansas, reported in the Saturday night
dispatches, shows that the verdict OF the
jury in the case Of Frank James Is begin.
ming to bear fruit. The James gang OF
despersdoes and outlaws have been held
up as herses rather than dcsperadoes by
the tone of the reports that have been
given Of their exploits. This has given
them vicious and evil influence upon
the public, many Of whom are as prone
TO evil as sparks to fly upward, and the
indemnify given Frank James, notori-
Gus member Of the gang, by jury com-
posed OF west Missouri mossbacks is an
encouragement for the young to engage
III the enterprise. That part of the coun-
try will never be rid of such outlaws un-
I'll the "long rope and short shnft" OF
Montana law is brought to bear upon
them. This Is desperate remedy but il
ls radical cure, and it seems to be the
only one one that will reach the case. A
year ago tree or q railroad bridge was
every few days decorated with despcr-
10 in Montana, but now there Is less
violence and crime in that territory than
in many of the states which claimto be
models Of civilization and morality.

THE late legislature had a great many
redecming qualities. While We believe II
made some very bad laws it also made
some good ones One Of the latter was
the law requiring fire escapes in hotels.
The terrible Newhall fire III Milwaukee
suggested it no doubt but the law is q
good one, and now it is with the people
to see it is enforced. 1t requires that
hotels above two sterics in height shall
be provided with fire escapes for al
rooms above the second floor, consisting
of cotton rope not less than an inch in
diameter securely fastened to airing at
the window and reaching to the ground
and as an inducement for hotel keepers
to provide such escape imposes penalty
Of s25 for each room neglected to be pro.

Jamestown weekly alert. [volume] (Jamestown, Stutsman County, D.T. [N.D.]) 1882-1925, 1883-10-05
WE thought the editor of the Disma

WE thought the editor of the bismarck
Capital vas a regular reader Of the Alert
until we read the following IN its cdi-
torial column the other day: "The
jamestown Alert is on both sides of the
fence. One day il roupdly abuses Gov.
Ordway and Bismarck and the next day
it publishes such editorials as the fol-
lowing" Here 1t quotes what was said
bv the Alert i few days before to the
effect that Mr.. Ordway was governor OF
the territory and was entitled to respect
as such. The Alert is above malice and
does not abuse Governor Ordway nor any
one else. Wherein it thinks the governor
ia right j. accords to him the credit that
is due the right and when it thinks he Is
wrong it will crit,cse him just the same
a. any other man. The sAlert Is on the
side of law and sound public policy
whether or not 1t be against Governor
Oriway, Bismarck or any other person
or place. | f,he Capital man would read
up on the Alert he would not make such
''bad breaks.'' g.
