The Warm Spring Indians have been furn-

Those who think Deshler not possessed

First came the much advertised, well at

This was followed by the great empty ''Hyp-

aspired to town hall, but it ''died bornin''

~ Eighteen of the States of the Union have
each over 5000 miles of railway. The Chicago
Railway Age says: "Every new railway that
comes into existence increases the number of
railway employees, at the average of probably
five men to the mile. HeEce the 1900 miles
which were built in 1881 have called about
&c, 900 new men into the service. This is an
encouraging fact tor railway men and those
desirous of entering the railway profession
to bear in mind, and it is also encouraging to
those who are seeking promotion to remem-
ber that the number of officials of all ranks
must continue to increase. At present the
railway officers and men of the United States
form an army not far from 785,0O0 strong,
and in half dozen years or SO the number
will probably be sweled to to at least mil
lion."

- The editor of this paper was indicted by
| the Grand Jury yesterday, for criminal libel,
on complaint of Daniel Hartnett, for pub
fishing the affidavit of James B. Fouke year
ago last November. We do not think pub
| fishing the said affidavit was at all criminal
and therefore plead not guilty. Indictments
were also brought in against j. B. Fouke on
complaint of Hartnett and j. ]. Malley on
complaint of Henry Bostelman. 1t is evi-
dent to our mind that the Democratic gang
| intend squelching freedom of speech in this
county, and their efforts are especially put
forth against the Signal. But we will inform
them that we have come to stay and will not
be driven out by set of rascals of their
stripe.-SignaL.
SIT is evident to our mind" that the "Dem-
ocratic gang" if there be such thing, did
not give these fellows indicted a second
thought. The facts are, Mr.. Bostelman and
Mr.. Hartnett did not feel disposed to let
their private characters be blighted by these
irresp onsible fellows, and therefore took ad-
vantage of the criminal law. The bravado
comes will ill grace from the Signal, whose
editor is now in the clutches of the law, who
if not guilty of criminality, will have chance
to prove that he is not. Some editors think
it looks brave and fearless and imagine to
plume themselves in vain glory by defying
the courts of justice after an indictment for
criminal libel has been returned against
them, and they think to carry the impression
that they welcome such events. This brava-
do and buncombe is all assumed. and unless
very depraved individual, and one lost to
self respect, there is no editor who feels that
criminal Indictment for libel desirable
happening. 1t is indeed a serious matter,
that means trouble and expense, if nothing
more, and many times it is considerable
more than this. There is class of slang
whauging vituperative, irresponsible, black
mailing journals, which may be supported by
a corrupted public taste, which can only be
controlled by the restraining influence of the
criminal laws and the strength of higher and
more just public opinion. The day of gorilla
journalism has passed and the publishers who
cannot see the tendency will be forced to it
through the process of law. The freedom of
the American press is broad and liberal, but
this freedom should no be abused when the
bonds Of decency are overstepped, then
the iron hand of justice must be laid up
on the offenders. We know all good citi-
zens will join the NORTHWEST in the hope that
these indictments will forever eradicate from
our politics the gorilla methods inaugurated
by set of boodlers and irresponsible char
acters, and which have been in vogue here
for few years. So mote it be.

~ Hon. ID. d. Donovan introduced bill
in the Legislature to provide against acci-
dents on railroads by preventing laborers
from working over twelve hours day. The
bill came up for hearing and was defeated.
That such measure is much needed, taking
into consideration the large number of acci-
dents which are occurring from the fact that
men employed upon railroads are required to
work from fifteen to eighteen hours and
more day, is or must be patent to every
mind. Corporations which hold life in their
hands should not be allowed to overwork
their men. Since the above was in type we
learn the bill has not been defeated but laid
over for few weeks.

Ireland no longer sends the greatest
