Peculiar Accident.

Yesterday, while a train was being made
up in the yard at the depot, Harry Kilduff
met with a peculiar and rather unpleasant
accident. He was climbing up the side OF
a car that was standing near a switch,
when several cars were shunted down on
the next track. There was not enough
room to clear him. and he vas caught and
rolled between the cars and severely
bruised all over. He is now at the Sisters
Hospital. and DR.. Murray, who is in at

I corporation Election.

By the notice of election for municipal
the election is to take place on Tuesday,
August 21st, and that there will be one gen
eral polling place. at which each elector may
vote for Mayor and six Aldermen. Under
the section of the Revised Statutes relating
thereto, it was provided that the original
map accompanying the petition for incorpo.
ration should describe the several wards of
the town or city, but in the section referring
to the first election the lawspecifes that cities
shall vote by wards, but says nothing about
towns voting by districts, while it does pro-
vide that at the first meeting after the cleo.
ton Of Mayor and Aldermen in towns they
shall divide the town into three districts and
at the annual elections thereafter the Alder
men shall be elected in the several districts.
The present districting of Deer Lodge is
good, and it would seem best that two Alder
men should be elected from each district as
at present indicated on the map. Even if
this disiricting is changed by the Council it
would be better to adhere to it in the first
election that all portions of the own may
have representation in the Council. While
there is no particular hurry about it, it would
be we'll at an early day to call q citizens
meeting to consider the nominations, and if
the sentiment is that way nominate officers.
In the event the nominations are not accept
able, those opposing can then nominate one
or more other tickets, so that when election
day comes the principal vote will not be
scattering"

Something of a Racket.

There was quite a circus yesterday after
noon. Nine prisoners were discharged from
Jail in the morning, a half dozen being tough
cases who were brought down from Anacon-
da. The latter bought a key of beer, took it
down by the bridge, and along in the after
noon got boisterous and disorder]y. They
were reported to officers Coleman and Hat
ton, who went down and arrested them.
Then one insisted on drinking more beer,
and while Hatton was disciplining him an
other ran. A shot over his head rounded
him to, but finally they all struck out. The
officers dropped a few shots around them,
not wishing to kill any Of them, and the
whele crowd got across the river, but were
finally rounded up, thrown into delivery
wagons that had driven to the scene and
carted through town to Jail, with officers
Coleman and Hatton, Frank and Jim Con-
ley, c. D. Joslyn, johnny Bielenberg, Billy
Coleman, H. A. Smurr and several other
Sunday School teachers holding them down
or;doing escort duty with them. Even after
they were put in Jail they were still obstrep-
erous and a couple Of them had to be disci-
plined between the eyes. They are tough

Control of the Cemetery.

The municipal incorporation of Deer
Lodge empowers the town to Establish and
regulate cemeteries within or without the
corporation," and to acquire lands for this
purpose. We will therefore soon have an
organization with direct control over the
cemetery. There has been much complaint
this summer Of the gate being left open, and
there has been lack of water to grow trees,
flowers, ETC., except as we believe Marshal
Kelley allowed it to be diverted free from his
limited supply. The West Deer Lodge Ditch
Company will soon have its ditch completed,
and no doubt arrangements can be made
with them for a sufficient supply under a
moderate pressure, so that the attention lav-
ished on many graves there can be made
Native trees should also be set
out on the avenues and something of the
%bleakness which characterizes Montana
cemeteries be %dispelled. Not the least Of the
benefits Of Incorporation will be in the
direct and authoritative control which may
be exercised over the City of the Dead, and
this control will doubtless be gratifying to
Mr.. Ed. II. Irvine, who gave the ground for
that purpose.

The %Philipsburg Train.

1t is 'better late than never" Ever since
the Drummond & P%hilipsburg road was put
in operation a train should haye been run
out from Philipsburg to Garrison and return,
making close connection to and from Helena,
Butte and intermediate points. It was never
done until the last few days, and people of
the West Side especially were subjected to
all kinds of delays and discomforts thereby.
Now the morning trains from Butte and
P%hilipsburg arrive at Garrison at the same
time, and passengers make immediate con-
nections through to both places. The time
between Deer Lodge and Philipsturg is
about five hours, which is slow enough, but
it beats ten or twelve hours all to pieces.
Now if our t%elegraphic and mail service,
which still continue abominable, were adj
justed up to what they should be we of the
West Side would have some of the benefits
of the principal modern facilities for travel
and communication. We extend the n. P.
and D. & P. railroad companies thanks for
the concession they have finally made and
hope the arrangement will last.

'.~ Herald, 18th.
Assistant General Manager Law, of the
Northern Pacific, is busy arranging for the
establishment of the headquarters of the
middle grand division of the road at Helena.
This will be located on their right of way,
near the present depot site and the other
side of the track. In the improvements now
under way in the Helena yards, the Northern
Pacific will expend about $4,000 before the
end of the year. This work will materially
change the condition Of things near the
depot. The present passenger depot will be
removed to a point about 400 feet west. 1t
will be considerably enlarged and will be
provided with every modern convenience.
the freight depot is also to be moved 800 feet
east, where all the necessary side tracks and
switches will be laid. In front of the passen.
ger depot there will be nothing but three
main tracks for the arrival and departure of
passenger trains, and the transfer and yard
business will be carried further east near the
freight depot. The work of accomplishing
these outlined Improvements has been COM
menced and will be completed by fall.
