A Young German Falls OF Hand
Car and is Dragged to
Death.
He Loses His Balance and Falls
Backward, His Arm Catching
in One Of the Cogwheels.
He Had Been at East Helena About Six
Weeks--Narrow Escape of Six
Men.

News was received from East Helena last
evening that young German, who had
been employed as section hand there for
the past six weeks. met with sudden death
while riding on a hand car. The men had
been at work on the road out toward Beaver
creek, and were coming in on q down grade
at lively rate. The young man, whose
name was not learned, was standing up on
the rear end, and by a sudden lurch of the
car he fell, and in falling his arm caught in
the cog-wheel of the car, and before it could
be stopped he was dragged to death. It was
a very unusual and unfortunate accident.
The young man was about q years of age,
industrious and well thought of by all
who knew him. The coroner was tele-
phoned for, but he failed to receive the
message. This is the first accident
happening to anyone on a hand-car in this
vicinity for some time, and while it was
doubtless the result of carelessness on the
part of the young men, 1t was nevertheless
deplorable accident and should be a warn
ing to men using hand-cars to be more
careful. A direful accident to six men on
hand-car near East Helena short time
ago was only averted by the intelligence OF
dog. A large Newfoundland dog was in
| the habit OF following the men on their
daily trip down the road, and like all dogs
it was ambitious to keep up with its mas
tiers. One evening when the men were re-
turning from work the dog took the lead
and there was spirited race. The animal
was only short distance ahead, and in
stead Of leaving the track and falling
in the rear kept going at great speed.
The men never thought of danger till the
car rounded curve and came suddenly
upon long trestle with the dog no more
than twenty feet ahead. He did not realize
the danger until he came to the trestle
The men were horror stricken and expected
to be thrown from the track and perhaps
killed. The intelligent dog knew the dan
ger instantly. 1t fattened itself between
the ties and the cars passed safely ovel
remarkable piece of intelligence ever ex-
hibited by dumb animal. 1t could not q
forward; to stand still was death to the dos
as we'll as men. 1t was too late to jump
so the intelligent animal crouched low ant
thus saved it's own life as we'll as the mel
on the car,

This property has been the subject of ne
gotiation by several parties in the city for
the past few days. It is owned by Mr.. H.
Rial and is situated in the Upper Basin,
about one mile and q half southeast of the
Josephine. Ii was been patented for years
and has produced some very rich ores. In
1876 Mr.. Riale joined the Montana stanl-
pede to the Black Hills and from there
went to south Africa. where he remained
two years, meeting with some strange ex-
periences. But he had abundant faith i'll
the Buckeye lead and this alone
induced him to return to Montana.
He employed men and sunk Il shaft 1OO
feet deep at discovery, and another fifty
feet deep 800 feet further west. The sur
face ore was stopped out and shipped, at a
good profit, but the subsequent develop
ment and lack of means caused him to
suspend operations two years ago, since
which time the mine has lain idle. Yester.

The incorporation yesterday, by thirteen
of Helena's representative men of the
Helena Mining and Stock Exchange is
step which the INDEPENDENT has repeatedly
advocated. and it is a pleasure to know that
this movement has been undertaken by
some of the best men in city-men whose
integrity is beyond question. Each and
every fone of them is large mine owner,
ANA most OF them have been identified
with all the important enterprises
that have been undertaken in Montana and
Idaho for the past five years. The need of
mining exchange in Helena has long been
apparent and is to-day really necessity.
As q mining share market Helena stands
pre-eminently above even st. Louis, Kansas
City, San Francisco or Denver. Most all
the big mining deals that have taken place
in Montana during the past ten years have
been made here and more people here
are interested in mining than any in city in
the west. 1t is safe to say. Whenever man
or company of men have a mine to
sell, if it is worthy of consideration
a ready market is always found in Helena.
Instance the Jay Gould. Elkhorn, Iron
Mountain, West Granite, Fourth of July,
d'Alene), Milwaukee, Josephine, 0. r. d
n, Copper Bell. and a hundred other prop
critics that were bought with Helena cap
ital. Helena is the place for q mining ex-
change, and it will undoubtedly prove .
grand success. It is to be hoped. however
that the new incorporation will never lend
its aid to wildcat schemes. It is that
which has placed st. Louis in the categor,
of played-out mining centers. Every
man in the Helena incorporation
is capitalist, and in thei
hands the Helena mining exchange shoult
become one of the important institutions o
the country. 1t will attract capitalist
from abroad who are seeking investment
and will in no small degree be the means o
the rapid and more extensive development
of Montana's mineral resources. TIL,
personnel of the Incorporation will b

Help from Kansas.

A Topeka correspondent of The st.
Louis Globe-Democrat says: Encouraged
by the result in kansas, it is known that
the farmers in other states are being ap-
pealed to by the Alliance leaders to organ
ize for future elections. One OF the Alll-
ance organs in this state says: Every
state in the Union has been looking to
Kansas in this campaign. Our victory IS
of national significance; its influence will
be felt to the remotest parts OF our land.
Already we have calls from other states
for some of our experienced Alliance or
ganizers. They desire to get in line for
the struggle of 1892. We shall send men
to teach our principles in other states.
and we shall continue the work of edu-
cation among our own now organized
people. Kansas has led the way and
forced the issues of the next national
campaign"

These Pinkerton forces are simply pri-
vate armies of hirelings, ready to do any
bloody work that may be required OF
them for pay, wherever there is any pre-
tense that it is in defense of the proper
ty of great corporations. The shooting
of innocent persons, as at Albany dur
ing the New York Central strike, and
at Fort Worth during the Southwestern
strike of 1886, shows one of the evils OF
this kind of warfare, but the great OBJ
lection to it is its utter and obvious in
consistency with the states Legitimate

crate private armies within its borders.

The Arrogance of Capital.

Capital has grown SO arrogant that 1t
refuses to treat with organized labor; it
demands the right to hire in the worlds
markets; to place the pauper labor of
other nations in competition with yours,
thus placing this labor in direct opposi-
ton with the interests of our own clti-
Gems, while our citizens support them,
and by their class legislation have made
it possible to amass their fortune.
Through the evil effects of the legisla-
ton, backed by trusts and monopolies
and aided by these i'll gotten gains, the
Pinkertons are hired. innocent men are
shot down and starving and unclad fami-
lies turned into the streets or forced to
submit. Speech of w. Fl. Thompson

Government Railroads.

The most frequent if not the most
forcible objection to federal ownership
of the railroads is that the vast increase
such ownership would make to the pat
ionage of the government would be dan
gerous to our institutions. "The rail-
roads," say those who favor this view,
SHOULD by all means be kept out OF poll
tics" True, but no government rail-
roads on earth are SO thoroughly in poll
tics as the private railroads in this coun-
try.
What phase of American politics is
free from railroad influence? 1t extends
and ramifies in every direction. 1t pen
etrates the counting room, the editorial
sanctum, the court and he legislature,
state and national. No department of
the government is free from it. 1t is
active from the nomination OF the presl-
dent of a village to the election OF the
president of the United States. 1t is not
open and above board. but underhand
and insidious. Always exercised to &C
quirc political power for private ends, 1t
is constantly at war with the public,
persistently demoralizing in its tenden-
cies, and invariably pernicious to the
general welfare. 1t is the lnonstrous
progeny of vast wealth, limitless re-
sources, Unsuitable greed and an un-
scrupulous policy.
With the passage of the roads under
government control growing danger to
the republic would be removed. The
service should be entirely divorced from
politics. Efficiency, good conduct and
I ability should be the tests for promo
ton, not political influence. Is it posi-
BILE that the government of this country
is so unscrupulous, dishonest and cor
1upt that it cannot be entrusted with du-

road kings and potentates?-Rural New
