If any man says now that Deer Lodge Is
not q live, progressive town he will be
subject to the ordinance against Islander. We
started in to incorporate this town, and
without = bobble, just as expeditiously as
the laws permit, the purpose has been &C
complished, officers elected and all the ma
chinery made ready to work. No town in
Montana, that we know Of, ever went direct
ly ahead and did what 1t started out to do
with . better right to be patted on the back
for work we'll done, than has Deer Lodge.
Now let it be demonstrated othe opposition
that incorporation is q good thing for Deer
Lodge.

IT was published last Friday in New York
that the City Of New York, the New Inman
line steamer; the Umbria (Cunard), La
Burgoyne {French trans-Atlantic), and the
Ems North German Lloyds), would start
Saturday On q race across the Atlantic, and
much interest was aroused, As these are
among the feetest of the Atlantic liners.
Some passengers made it q point to secure
passage on the racers, and others relin.
pushed berths on them. The companies
denied the intent of racing, but the two first
named slipped away Saturday within . half
hour of each other, and it is thought there
will be no unnecessary time lost. The element
Of speed is becoming q great consideration
with ocean travellers, and it is q matter of
business as we'll as pleasure for the officers of
steamers to make the best time.

The investigation as to contract labor by
the Congressional investigating committee
Tuesday brought out the fact that Cleve-
lands Secretary Of the Treasury has neglec.
ted to make the requisite contract with the
Governor of New York to carry out the pro-
visions of the contract labor law, aud that
Italians are actually engaged in New York
making coin and mail sacks for the man who
has the government contract to supply them.
That is q nice state of affairs to be shown up
on the Cleveland administration. General
Spinola wss as cruel to press the point to q
divulgence of the fact as immigration Com
missioner fainter was ungrateful in showing
that with a law Of Congress defining the
duties of the Secretary of the Treasury to
make the contract labor law operative, he has
utterly neglected it in New York 1t least,
and left the bars down at the most important
port in the United States. The Democratic
party should hide its head in. shame.

had never entertained the least notion of
supporting Cleveland, bnt was for Harrison

APPREHENSION OF THE SIOUX.
Troops in Pursuit of Them From Fort Cuss'

PINE RIDGE AGENCY, Oak, August TO-
There was great commotion here yesterday
when it wa learned that . large band OF the
Sioux had gone TO the Cheyenne country on
the Tongue river in defiance Of the objec-
lions of Agent Gallagher. They claim to be
going to . sun dance, but 1t is feared they
have more serious intentions. They have
often threatened to join the Cheyennes and
murder unprotected whites along the Tongue
and Powder rivers. Col. Dudley At Fort
Custer has been ordered to send out troops
TO intercept them, and two companies OF the
first cavalry started in pursuit this afternoon
II is believed . bloody battle will be fought
before the Sioux are taken back to their res

ST. PAUL, Aug. 1.-THE Pioneer Press
has from Winnipeg confirmation Of the report
that the agreement to complete the Red
River Valley railroad, between the Manitoba
government and the Northern Pacific road,
is of. 1t is evidently tho intention of the
government to build the road itself, though
some assert the St. Paul, Minneapolis &
Maniroba railroad have put ia q bid that dis
counts its rivals offer.
CHICAGO, Aug. 17.-It is reported the
Northern Pacific is about to secure entrance

UNION PACIFIC TRAIN ROBBERS.
The Train Men Make a Fight and Stand Them
or.

ST. Louis, August 18.-A special from
Cheyenne, Wyoming, says: An attempt wa
made At 2 o'clock this morning BY masked
men to rob the Union Pacific west bound
overland passenger train a. Dana station,
near Rawlins.
Three masked men covered the engineer
with revolvers and compelled him to throw
up his hands. Brakeman Frank Tillman
grappled with one of the robbers. The ex-
press messenger came TO the rescue and the
marauders were then put to flight after
about thirty or forty shots had been ex.
changed.
Fireman Nash and Brakeman Tillman
were seriously wounded, the former shot in
the hip and arm and the latter in the side.
RAwLrNs, Wyo., Aug. 1s.-At 2:30 this
morning II east bound Union Pacific pas.
senger train was lying At the water tank two
miles from Dana. The engineer was oiling
up and the fireman was on the tender filling
the tank. Suddenly three men rushed up,
covered them with revolvers and ordered
them to throw up their hands. The engi.
neer did SO at once, but the fireman jumped
down from the tender. As he did SO he was
shot slightly in the right arm. A constant
fire was kept up on the train by some of the
robbers concealed by darkness about fifty
yards from the train.
The front brakeman, VIM. Tillman, when
told to throw up his hands did so, when the
order was repeated "higher." He was stand
ing on tho steps of the engine At the time,
and Is he lifted his hands higher his lantern
dropped. He was ordered to pick It up. He
stopped down to do so, and at the same time
grasped a lump Of coal and
SMASHED TUE RoBBER IN THE FACE.
Staggering him backwards, and then jumped
on him. A desperate hand to hand conflict
took place, both men rolling down the
cinder bank into the ditch. The brakeman
was finally shot in the arm and through the
hip, splintering the bone.
When the robbers found they were foiled
they abandoned the attack and fled. The
passengers were uninjured.
The robbers are supposed to be heading
south towards the North Park of the Colo
RADIO. Large posses are securing the coun-
try, and If caught the miscreants will be
given q short shrift. "@m
RAwL1Ns, Wyo., August 20.-The latest
dispatch from the train robbers is that they
are fifteen miles north of Medicine Bow
river, having crossed Cottonwood ford, and
are making for Shirley Basin and the sur
rounding timbered mountains. The Raw
Inns posse is twelve miles behind and hot on
the trail. II the robbers get into Shirley
their capture will be almost impos-
A reward of $1,000 has been offered
by the Union Pacific and the Governor for
each robber; dead or alive.

A WRITER in the Sun, probably Dana HIM
self, says-that in the course of an interview
m he asked Gen. Sheridan elf he was
afraid, or if he didn't care about going into
battle" He answered: "The man who says
he isn't afraid under fire is = liar. I am
damned afraid, and If I followed my own
impulse ! should turn AID get out. 1t is all

CONTRACT LABOR,
''Dagos" Doing Work for the Government and
the Secretary of the Treasury Negligent.

tHe secretary OF the treasury Negligent.
New YORK, Aug. 21.-Louis S. Samuel,
q dry goods importer, was the first witness
before the congressional investigation com.
mittee This morning. He has contracts fol
supplying mail and coin bags for the govern.
ment. To do this work he employs $50 hands.
On being pressed by Congressman Spinola,
witness acknowledged that the majority of
his workmen are Italians. The committee
then examined Samuel Krentz concerning
tho importation of musicians under contract.
dc admitted he had brought six musicians
from Bavaria under contract, but did not
hold the men to their contract after he found
it was against the law. immigration Com
missioner Chas. W. fainter appeared before
the committee and called its attention to
the provision of the law, by which the secre.
tary of the treasury is empowered to enter
into contract with the governors Of states and
other local authorities for the carrying out
ofthe provisions of the contract labor law.
He said that no such contract had ever been
entered into between the secretary of the
treasury and Governor Hill or any other
official. Hence the emigrant commissioners
do not feel it their duty to look after the
of the law In this respect.

THE kilograms state that Speaker Carlisle,

the stump for a dozen speeches in joint de-
bate with James G. Blaine, on the tariff

Carlisle will know more about tariff when he
gets through than be does now, but he will
have less disposition to get on = platform and

BorLANGEB didn't lose all his friends in

Departments of Somme, Charente and Nord.
At Amiens and Lille there was considerable

he was reelected by = majority of nearly

$50 years afford no instance thereof, and that
on the contrary Juggernaut is the most hu-
name and his cult the most civilized of all
the Oriental deities. The car is, in fact,
drawn by men instead Of horses, lest some
accident should occur offensive to the mer-
cifal character Of "Jug." Is there anything
left for the iconoclasts to demolish?
