Fatal Accident.

Monday evening young man
was brought up from Campbell, hav-
ing had both legs crushed below
the knees by locomotive passing
over them, and was placed in Dr..
Swaine's hospital dying the next
morning. His name was Calvin
NJ. Scott, 80 years of age and his
home was in Chicago. The young
man had nearly bled to death before
he got here. But the only thing to
be done was the amputation of the
legs and give him the best treat
ment possible. This was done by
Dr.. Swaine, but the unfortunate
young man died Tuesday morning
about four o'clock. His people re-
siding at No. 20 North Ade street,
above named city, were telegraphed
and word came back that brother
of deceased would start for Wahpe.
ton at once, and he arrived on last
evenings train via the Milwaukee
road. The funeral of the remains
will take place to-day at the Wild

The Editors wear.

Several editors in the state are
seeking official promotion. There
has long been in. idea prevalent
that the only proper duty Tor an
editor to preform in that line was
to help aspiring politicians and take
his pay in abuse and kicks. The
change that is beginning to take
place IN this respect deserves en-
couragement. IT faithful service
on the behalf Of the people deserves
recognition, no class has better
claims than the editor.-[Owatonna
Journal and Herald.
Yes, that is all true. The editor
has an important duty to perform
in showing to the public that he is
an independent commercial craft,
depending on honor and integrity
to carry him through, eschewing
dishonorable and unworthy things
among politicians and in political
matters the same as in everything
else. Certainly, such man has a
right to run for Office, has every
right in the, world, but there is
usually preponderance of the pro-
fessional politician to kill off such
man. The upright newspaper
and the professional politician can
no more mix than can sweet oil and
Bois des Sioux water, and its the
gullability Of the public that rem
ders it SO. 1t costs reputable
newspaper every time it expresses
an opinion of any moment, and how
often is this opinion or fact as it
may be, lost to the public, thrown
away, simply because there is an in
terested fellow on every street cor
ner ready to combat it. And, ordi-
narily, when the reputable news
paper man himself gets in to the po-
litical field, he is a goner. He is a
better man than his enemies want
there. He should be above politics
and by all means above professional
politicians.

The Woman DISCHARGED.

The woman Nellie Grant was very
properly discharged by Justice Nc
Kean Monday, District Attorney
Lauder appearing for the prosecu-
tion and p. j. McCumber and VIM.
E. Purcell for the defendant. It
was shown that the tramps had
gone into the house "for fun" and
that they had for some two hours
made themselves disagreeable in The
extreme and finally winding up by
knocking down the inmates and
threatening to destroy their furni-
ture, &C., virtually forcing the
woman to shoot. And in this mat
ter having the same rights to pro-
tect their lives and property that
other people have, there is no sort
of justice in the prosecutions claim
that the woman should be held be-
cause of the disreputable business
she is in. The tramp was tolerated
for two hours, when in respectable
home had he done one-hundredth
part of the mischief and been shot
dead by the woman of the house,
she would have been Il heroine. If
this woman is a violator of law,
then prosecute her for this, on the
proper charge and in proper way.
The tramps in this city are a
nuisance, being the sole cause of the
two extra policemen on the force.
Instead Of being fostcred and en-
couraged helc on a false reasoning
they should be run out of town.

The Fergus Picnic.

The Presbyterian society and
friends of Fergus Falls held a most
enjoyable picnic in Wahpeton's
Park Wednesday of this week, we
in another place reproducing the
correspondence had in its arrange
ments. In the afternoon THE TIMES
dropped over onto the Island and
found Il large party of Sunday
school children and their parents
and other and various ladies' and
gentlemen enjoying themselves
about the grounds, while the Fer
gus and Breckenridge juvenile base
ball clubs held forth on the famous
diamond the game terminating, we
believe something like 16 to 8 in fa-
vor of Breckenridge. Following
this was a drill by the Compton ca
diets, the members being made up of
some 80 young boys any where from
II to Is years Of age. The COM
pany was nicely uniformed and
Capt. Thos. Dwyer commanded
them. The boys did nicely, indeed,
and after this marched out and over
to Wahpeton, going through very
pretty movements throughout Dako-
ta ave-, all of which were admired
by our people. The proficiency
these young boys have attained and
the general line Of department they
are drilled in must have very good
effect on the youth, rendering it
really an admirable feature in their
every day life.
Among those on the picnic ground
from Fergus, we noticed Captain
and Mrs. Compton, the captain be-
ing the president of the citazcn's S
National Bank of that city, and rep
resents his district in the state SEN
ate, being now Il candidate for re-
election: Mr.. and Mrs. Jos. II.
Featherston; Thos. Dwycr. Chas.
Smith, Mr.. and Mrs. Marble, Justice
Pickett, Mr.. and Mrs. Randall, Mr..
Mrs. r. G. Woodham, B. d. Catlin,
and Mrs. Hall Woodham, Mr.. and
Rev. r. n. Adams and daughters,
Mrs. n. j. Underwood and daugh-
ters, Mrs. S. Schumacher. Mr.. and
Mrs. c. S. Allen, Mrs. G. p. Austin
and daughter, T. 3. Hoover, thu
gentleman now prospecting at Fer
gus for natural gas and coal and
Mrs. DR.. Greenly.
And among the Wahpeton LADIES'
on the ground, were Mrs. Dawson
Bell and daughter, visiting and en-
joying the open air with their old
friends.
The party left the grounds about
six O'Clock for their train which had
been left at breckenridge, about
which time Captain Compton said
to us that his people had enjoyed
themselves immensely.

j. Ely and the young man Hale,
friends of c. r. Loomis, from Cleve-
land, Ohio, mentioned as here shoot

much pleased with Dakota and

Ely has DAILY gun, the same make
as that owned by your humble SER
want Of which we know to he an
excellent shooter, the former having
been the second one ever seen in
these parts, and of which Mr..

he ever saw. You see we are bound
to have the boys who have not pur-
chased understand that the DAILY is

This is another season showing
that the farmers and in fact all
citizens in the Red River valley
have great cause for being thank
full that they live in so imperishable
section Of country as this is prov
ing to lie. In Wisconsin and other
states east and south of here in win
ter the country is deluged with
great snow storms and all transpor-
tation is rendered doubly burden
some. And in these states this
season the drouth has dried up and
burnt all vegetation so that farmers
are compelled to feed their stock
and are selling the latter at ruin
ously low prices-to get rid of their
keeping. There a man can buy
splendid horses for 5000 per span,
and it is predicted that before snow
falls cows can be had by the score
for ten dollars each. There is no
feed to keep them over winter. And
then in the west from Montana,
Wyoming and other grazing Sec
tions, word comes that the drouth
has killed out all feed so that the
large cattle owners. are already
driving their herds;into northwes-
tern territory for feeding purposes
the coming winter, thus showing
the great hardships attending the
people and commercial life both east
and west of us, while we here in
this glorious valley have the finest
crops we ever produced and feed Of
every description in abundance,
with mild, pleasant winters free
from the great devastating snow
storms subject to the sections of
country now laid waste from a |
famishing drouth. Men of means
Should come to Richland county and
locate their stock ranges farming
and other industrial pursuits, with
almost every certainty that failure
is not known here. Stock ranges
here might not be as big as can be
had on the great plains of Montana,
but stock production and it's attend
ing tributaries of wealth may be
had right in the heart of a prosper
Gus, rich and intelligent people--a
section of country that will always
he the richest and most desirable in
the far western states: Now is the
time for monied men to walk in and
invest. Very soon lands will be
away. up in this valley, and oppor-
tunitles far more scarce than they
are to-day.

i've of more discussion on the part of the
drivers than almost any thing else. How to
arrange it so one riding in carriage who i.
compelled to cross the car track will not be
made to think he is crossing the Alps, was
the question discussed by trio comfortably
seated in an east front Main street window
last evening.
One gentleman was presumptious enough
to suggest that it would be a good plan 10
remodel our car line after the style of Lon
don. True enough. no American city had
adopted the plan, but Wichita had the brass
70 appropriate the good things o, the old
country if she took notion. The above
was the unanimous conclusion of the philo-
sophical trio.

THE BUSINESS MEN.

The business men of Wichita can get q
pointer, which will open their eyes, by call
ing upon any member Of the Committee OF
Twenty. There is no necessity of explaining
upon what rests the present boom of this
city. 1t is unnecessary, also, to state that
the committee are doing all that lies in their
power. But unless the business men of this
city put themselves in different attitude
touching the pending election they are liable
to hear something drop and that something
will be principally real values. Every bust
ness man, every property owner, every
contractor can at least afford 20 register and
TO bestir himself to some extent to influence
others to do So Information, reliable i'm
formation reached the committee last even
ing of the plans and work of a foe whose
unlimited resources Of men ard money, will
encompass the city's defeat if every man
does not do his who'd duty. At least one
thousand additional votes should be regis
tered by Saturday night Go at once and
attend to this matter.
