THE GALLONS HERE
THE CONTINUANCE WHICH WAS ORDERED TO
WORK OFF MAIER,
Como 70 Hand from Pittsburg, and is Stored
Away in The BaSsmen! Of the
Court HOusa

Yesterday afternoon the gallows,
which was intended for the hanging of
Murderer William Maier, arrived from
Plttsburg on board the steamer Stock
dale, aud was unloaded at the wharf. A
little later in the day the appliance de-
signed for the judicial taking OF human
life was loaded into an express wagon
and was hauled up to the Court House,
where 1t was stored away in one OF the
basement rooms, under lock and key,
until such time as it might be wanted
to carry into effect the behests OF the
law.
Two or three reporters caught sight
OF the stuff as it lay in the wagon, and
one of the newspaper men asked dep
uty sheriff what it was.
sob, I guess it's lot OF those cleo
ton booths" was the reply.
The reporter wasn't to be misled,
however, and in about five minutes 1t
was generally known that the Maier
gallows was at baud, ready for use, II
needed.
The gallows was constructed under
contract, for Sheriff Steenrod, by a man
named Johnson. Of Pittsburg, and was
shipped from that place Friday after
noon. As it lay on the Pittsburg wharf,
waiting to be loaded on the boat, a
Pittsburg newspaper man examined 1t
closely, sized it up, and made some en-
quiries as to where it was going. When
told it was destined for West Virginia,
he made an alleged funny re-
mark TO the effect that he had
supposed all they needed in
West Virginia was horse-halter and a
convenient limb, and let it go. The
gallows is rather nicely finished affair,
and being built by a man who under
stands the workings Of the thing, is
guaranteed to choke the life out OF a
criminal with neatness and despatch.
Whether it will be needed in the Maier
case, however, is matter for conlec-
ture. The matter is at present in abey-
ance, stay having been granted by
Judge English until such time as the
Court can examine fully into the case.
1t is the popular expectation that Maier
will never hang, but that he will be sent
to the penitentiary for life in the end.

The Boys Don Their sunday Clothes and
DO the Gallant.
Thursday was ladies' day at "Ter
rier's Rest" the fishing camp just be-
low Wilson's Station. About thirty
young ladies went up early in the morn
ing in Mitchel's big picnic wagon, and
spent the day in horseback riding, boat
ing and fishing. Each Of the boys, like
Dan McGinty, was dressed in his best
suit Of clothes, the costume of the camp
being vigorously tabooed. To say that
the girls enjoyed the programme map
ped out for their entertainment, is to
express it mildly.
The dinner, served in the highest
style OF the culinary art, was pleasing
feature, and it was partaken of with
aviditY. Photographer Brown, and an
assistant were present, and the entire
group Of about sixty people, had their
pictures took" The photographs will
be kept as souvenirs of the occasion.
The rain in the afternoon did not
dampen the spirits Of the pleasure seek
ers, as the three tents Of the Terriers"
afforded ample protection. When the
wagon left, some Of the boys were with
difficulty restrained from going with
the girls.

The sidewalk campaign is being car
ried on in other cities of the country.
The Omaha Bee takes up the cudgel in
this fashion:
The condition of the sidewalks in many
portions OF the city is disgracsful. The
walks are not too old to be good; they are
not rotten nor otherwise damaged. as a
rule. but they are, nevertheless, almost use
less IN nan places, because they have
settled ont of shape, wrenohinR the planks
from their fastenings, and in some cases
they are tilted to al angle of about 45 de-
Rress, rendering it difficult for the pedes-
trian to keep his footing. These walks
might easily be made as good as new, but
they are simply neglected and allowed to
60 to ruin. Their condition is largely due
to the settling of their foundations, caused
by the prolonged rains of this spring
months. 1t is a waste of good material and
a needless wear and tear upon public patti
ence to allow them to remain as they are. >
The above suggestions apply to Hell
ena. Let the work of improvement con.
tinue until criticism will be no longer
needed.

AAD ADVICE

Our erratic contemporary, tho Irial
World, presents a proposition that Il
truly refreshing. In condemnins
Chauncey NJ. Depew for appearing at I
Parnell memorial meeting in New York
it says: "While 1t 10 right for Ameri'
cans to show sympathy with the move,
ment for homo rule for Ireland, it il
most improper for any American t.
identify himself with an Irish faction OF
discussion" In other words the World
means that while American money viii
be gratefully and even eagerly received
BY Irishmen abroad working for home
rule, it is all wrong for the friends Of the
cause in this country to show their in
terest by discussing unfortunate issues
which have divided the Irish party, or BY
taking sides. A check slipped under
the door is all that newspaper wants
from the people Of this country. This
theory is not only beautifully refresh
ing but very absurd. 1t is very much
like telling the Irish World to refrain
from the discussion OF issues in this
CONlItTy NAllS ~ C4hluAo w w uA AAAoA-
American newspaper.
The men who have shown their in
terest in the cause Of home rule by
contributing so literally, should at least
DO allowed the privilege of discussion
and, If they see fit, to express their en-
dorsement for one side or the other.
This is a principle of free speech, a more
exalted sense Of liberty than the free
dom Of Ireland from English rule. All
are hoping that the differences between
the Irish factions may be adjusted and
that the home rule forces will move on
Il common enemy in a solid mass; but
the way to bring about q union Of divi-
sion is to have a full and free discussion
of all differences. 1t is but fair to sup
pose that the friends Of Ireland in this
country have sympathies with n side
or the other; indeed this is the true test
Of genuine interest in the progress Of
the home rule movement. Instead of
telling the people of this country that
they must stand aloof and give only
their money to the cause, the World,
which is a very pronounced anti. Parnell
organ, should use it's energies to bring
about a solid union Of all factions.

ORATOR MURRAY, of Missoula, made an
interesting proposition last evening. He
said that for every democrat in Helena
who voted for Harrison a republican in
Missoula would vote for Helena for the
capital. We do not know where Mr..
Murray got his authority for the pro-
position, but we venture to say that it is
not worth considering. Democrats in
this city will vote the democratic ticket,
while the citizens Of Missoula have
sense enough to vote for Helena for the
capital, regardless of politics.
