From the Chicago Inter-Ocean we
learn that the so-called cowboy race
was a fake. Instead of the riders COW
ering the distance as intended some OF
them rode part Of the distancein palace
cars and their horses or a freight train.
Not only this, but those who did ride
an honest race were mounted on
blooded horses instead of the prairie
cayuse or broncho. As a result the race
showed neither the endurance OF man
or beast and failed to reach II end
that was intended. John Berry was
the first to arrive but Nh lnter-Ocean
special correspondent had been on the
trial on IA bicycle and exposed frauds
as to Berry's conduct, and also In re-
gard to several others. Berry's time
was thirteen days, an average OF a little
over seventy miles per day. George
| Jones, who arrived twenty-four hours
later than Berry, is stated to be the
real winner of the race, but so muct
trouble will be experienced in settling
difficulties that it is probable the stake
will be declared of.

A ON SILVER.

The drop of silver to 6S cents, Its
rapid decline being due to the closing
of the silver minis of India has added
much to the completely of the tinan-
cial situation. Views of financlers II
statesmen are given almost daily. In
a recent interview Congressman Bland
expressed himself as follows on the
prospects Of silver legislation and the
probable result:
Heroic measures will be required
ON the part of this government for the
RECOMMENDATION of silver. Most EN-
phatically 1 do not think 1T Is II knock
out for silver in this country. On the
contrary, | think if congress does not
adopt some measure looking 10 n OIL
metallic standard it will make "A battle
of stands the coming issue III this coun-
try. This battle will disrupt political
parties and cause u contest
the commercial centers n agricul-
tural districts of the country. Inc
free coinage of silver is demanded by
the laboring classes, and this Is what
free silver men will now deinand oil
congress. The decentralization OF silver
is IL conspiracy between the banking
institutions of England and the eastern
portion of the United States, and the
suspension of silver coinage III India Is
a part of this conspiracy to bulidoze
the of the United States into
the adoption of II single gold standard:
| do not believe they will ucceed. Ii
the Democratic congress stands true to
It's pledges this conspiracy will not sue
coed. The low price of silver Is due to
the fact that this and other govern
ments are discriminating against 1t,
and that the money interests OF this
and other countries have fought 1t. No
important commercial country has
| recently lind a mint for the free eX-
change of gold and silver. The effect
has been to dam up silver and prevent
its exchange for the commerce OF the
commerce of the nations. That the
United States by free coinage can re-
store silver to its original value was
practically admitted by the British
Royal Commission of 1888, consisting
of twelve members, six Of them un-
compromising gold mono-metallsts.
They admit that France alone could
maintain a plenty of the two metals at
a ratio of 15I to /. This country Is
stronger in material wealth, developed
and undeveloped, than France and
England combined"

An Editors Lament.

We have laughed where there is no mirth.
We have wept where tears are unknown.
We have danced and the daughters OF music
are dumb. We have stung you into mad
ness. We have tickled you under the chin,
We have nursed and coddled the lean and
meagre truth. We have created and dis
bursed the large and lusty eye. The fruits
ri our efforts have been apples OF Sodom
and our belly is filled with wind. Were
poverty a sin, this were a hamlet in hell;
were s~elfshness a virtue, this were "A palace
in paradise. To our friends-to those who
succored us in our hour OF distress-our
memory will ever he green. and may the
.ods of time and fortune be ever kind to
them. To our enemies-to those who with
held their supporting arm and word oil
cheer-may they reap as they have sowed.

Death of William Heavilin.

William Heavilin died at the county hos
pitnl last Thursday eveningand was buried
Friday forenoon, funeral services being con
Quoted 10y Rev. Edwards.
Mr.. Heavilin's injuries which resulted in
his death consisted of a very bad com.
pound fracture of the left leg and severe
COMMISSIONS OF foot and thigh. A portion
of detached pom was removed from lee and
every effort made to save that member,
but after three weeks in a splint it was
found that the bones would not unite, and
as IA last resort amputation was resorted
to. the patient being in a poor condition
owing toa perverted condition of the blood
The capital operation Was, however, the
only hope. Mr.. Heavilin had not strength
to rally and died about ten days after the
amputation.

1t would be wrong to say that the
editor of the Mud Geyser was a fit rep
resentative of modem Democracy as
the party contains many good men,
who will not tolerate anything low and
mean. There are such men IN this
county and they do not hesitate to de-
clare their contempt for the men who
are responsible for the Gamble en-
ployed to edit the paper. Every one
OF the stockholders is and office holder
oran office seeker. Deaton and Gilker-
son are already feeding at the public
crib, while Brooks, Hilger, Barnes, Swope
and Shafer are waiting to get their
noses in. In fact Shafer thinks the
affairs of this county will never 90
right until he gets to be county COM
missioner. These men do not appear
to be particularly vicious but they GER
tainly lack something. The methods
by which they would gain an office
should not be overlooked and at the
proper time be prepared to copper"
them. To sanction blackguardism, de-
traction, vilification and cannibalism
is not honorable.

The prospects for the wool men are
at present rather gloomy. About the
only buyer who has been in the Chi
nook and Big Sandy section informs
sheepmen hat he is only authorized to
pay from 10 to l24 cents for wool, and
under no consideration to give over Is
cents for the choicest clips. On con
signments s to Q cents is allowed at
Great Falls, and the highest at Chinook
is 10 cents. But, while the price Of
wool is lower than ever, the rate of in
terest on advance money is n per
cent higher, and the freight rates east
of ST. Paul are higher than they were
last yea Democratic milking" wool
is not quoted, as the owners are hold
ing it until after the passage of a free
wool bill, when they will sell it to the
Independent at the increased price
promised River Press.

As will he seen elsewhere, President
Cleveland has called an extra session
of congress TO meet on the 9Th day Of
August. 1t is stated in "A dispatch
from Washington that the president
changed the date IL month earlier for
the reason that he had received rea-
sonable assurance that there was a
likelihood of the prompt repeal of the
silver purchase law" But there is
great doubt about this being done I'M
less some action is taken favorable to
silver. The extra session will be IA
stormy one in ali probability. The
closing Of the minis of India is un-
douht'diy the direct cause of the sud
den decline in silver, but it looks very
much like Il conspiracy against the
white metal in which the gold bugs Of
this county had a secret knowledge.
