Old kHNlIs1 DAYS.
THE DificnIty of Taking the Hard-E Earned
Gold Back East.

E'Miners in Montana during the first
rusnes for gold had a hard time getting
the yellow metal back to regions of
civilization said citizen of Denver
the other day. There was practically
a choice of two routes and whichever
a man took he was almost sure to wish
he had taken the other. If he went
across the country in a stage coach he
was almost certain to be held up and
robbed on the way, and if he came
down the Missouri river in boat he
was lucky If he had whole scalp when
he struck the nearest railroad town.
I tried both routes, and have never
been able to determine which of the
two was the least satisfactory. When
came by stage the passengers con-
graduated themselves at each stopping
place that we had got through unmo-
Tested, and the usual fate which befalls
those who commence shouting before
they are out of the wood finally befell
us. had fully twenty thousand dol
lars worth of gold dust which l had
acquired chiefly in trading, and it was
so awkward to carry that concealment
was impossible.
Finally an accident saved my treas
ure in very peculiar manner. Dis
mounting from the coach l slipped and
fell backward, getting completely
knocked out in the process. The stage
was seven or eight hours late, and as
the driver had to make another town
before dark he refused TO wait while
l revived, and in the crowded condi-
ton of the coach it would have been
almost impossible to have carried me
as 1 was. The people at the log house
at which we changed horses would have
made the heart of Diogenes glad could
he have found them. They could
have stolen every dollar l had easily,
but l did not lose a cent, and when,
finally, was able to get away by an
other stage, l had difficulty in persuad-
ing them to accept a handsome reward
for their services. The coach that was
in so much of a hurry was held up. and

GRIEF KILLS A PAWNEE.
His Little Child Died and he Com
mitted Suicide.
:lispatch TO the Daily Eagle.

Special Dispatch TO the Daily Eagle.
GUTHRIE, o. 4. Aug. 27.-News has
reached here that Scott Meacham, full
blood Pawnee Indian residing two miles
north of Pawnee, committed suicide
Friday evening by shooting himself with a
Winchester.
1t seems that Meacham was married but
had no children. He adopted the child Of
one OF his brothers and became greatly at
tached to the little one. Two weeks ago the
child was taken sick aud died. Neacham
brooded over the child's death and his
fellow Indians did all IN their power to
comfort and solace him. but to no avail.
Friday evening Meachsm shouldered his
shotgun, with the remark that he in-
tended 10 kill crows. At supper time the
grief stricken Indian failed TO show up,
and upon investigation his body WAS
found lying in the woods cold in death.
He had blown his brains out with Win
chester ball. The Pavnee Indians, as Il
tribe, are addicted To the suicide habit,
but this is the first case on record where d
redskin took his own life through grief.

oREeoN's GREAT VICTORY.



Hcan Plurality.
A word in regard to the recent cleo
ton in this state may be of interest TO
your readers The mony question was
brought prominently before the people,
hut under this issue, molding more
votes than all other issues combined,
was the question of responsibility for
the hard times 1t was urged BY re-
publican speakers to attentive audi
ences throughout the campaign that
the primary and controlling cause OF
the panic was the shadow OF free trade
hanging over the country since March
4, 1898. This was the central thought
OF the campaign, and the republicans
We're able TO illustrate their point by
graphic illustrations. In one little
town in eastern Oregon half a million
pounds of wool are stored unable 70
lind sale In some sections of the state
three-quarters of the sheep are still un-
shorn, the price of wool being SO low
as hardly To pay for the expense OF
shearing. A mutton sheep worth 81 30
during President Harrisons admins
tration now meets difficult sale at
Sl.25.
But sheep men are not the only ones
who complain about the shadow of free
trade. The Wilson bill takes away the
protective duty on prunes. and for the
first time in its history the Oregon
prune grower finds no market for his
fruit. The duty on hops is reduced
from fifteen cents pound To 20 per
cent. ad valorem, and hops which for
merly sold for thirty-ive cents pound
now bring not more than fifteen cents
Lumber is put on the free list, and the
great Oregon lumber trade is staguant.
The voters have evidently regarded
these tangible arguments Never in
the history of the state has the party
of protection won such victory as 1t
achieved on the 4th of this month. The
plurality on the state ticket viii be
about 5000. Considering the size OF
Oregon, this is equivalent To 100000
plurality in Pennsylvania The repub-
licans have elected ffty-two out of a
total of sixty members of the house of
representatives, and twelve out of a
total of fifteen senators elected this
year. 1t is significant of the total de-
moralization of the democrats that
they have polJed 5000 less votes than
the populists and have elected only one
senator and one member OF the house.
On their state ticket they have not car
ried single county.

Story of Political Campaign IA the Bins
Grass State.

Story of q Political Campaign IA the Bine
Grass State.
John C. Underwood, who was elected
lieutenant governor of Kentucky on
the same ticket with Luke Blackburn,
is an amusing story teller. particularly
when he is started on the subject of
political stumping in Kentucky. ''Our
people," said he not long ago to New
York Evening Post man, don't like
snobbishness. I remember one time
when was stumping one of the noun
tain counties. l bought twenty-five
dollars worth of nickels and carried
them in my saddle bags. At every log
cabin l would ride up and ask for a
drink of water. Out would come a lit
tie boy or girl with gourd dipper of
warm water. would take a swallow,
then drop a nickel in the dipper. The
little one would run in and | would go
on. The child's mother would come
out and have the generous gentleman
pointed out. The consequence was
that l got the vote of that house.
Well, one morning rode up to house
and little girl brought me out dip
per of water. I felt in my pocket and
discovered that hadn't copper.
Little girl said l, Il generally
have q nickel somewhere about me, but
haven't to-day, so I'll give you what's
the next best thing for a girl, and
that's kiss and l got down off my
horse, and kissed her for my own little
blue-eyed girl at home. Another little
black-eyed girl here showed up, and
had to kiss her for a niece of mine she
looked like. By this time another lit
tie girl showed up, half a head taller
than the rest, and, not to be impartial,
/ kissed her, when found that four
or five other girls had gathered and
was in for it. So, beginning with the
smallest, I kissed each one. The change
IN stature was SO gradual t hat | didn't
notice that the last one was full
grown young woman-and right hand
some at that-until / had kissed her.
Looking up saw that there were two
or three old ladies laughing at me, and
thinking that had made bad break,
] lifted my hat to the young lady and
begged her pardon and explained how
it was. She didn't seem to mind it
much, but the old ladies kept laughing,
and one said, why, durn it, she's
Bills wife
"'Well,' I thought, I'm in for ID.
That knocks out all my votes in this
neighborhood, inquired at the next
mans house who Bill was and was told
that it was Buck Holmes, the hardest
citizen in Carter county. Next day I
had to speak at the courthouse and
when / came up / noticed gang OF
about twenty-five rough-looking fell
lows off at one side, and a big sixfoot-
er talking to them and gestieulating
with both hands.
"'Who,s that?' inquired.
"'That's Buck" Holmes and his
gang was the reply. Cold chills ran
down my back and I shifted my re-
volver around to where l could reach
it without trouble, and then sauntered
up to overhear what he was saying.
"'Well, I'm blankety blanked,' I
heard him say, if he don't catch my
vote. No snob thar, gentlemen. Jest
as soon kiss poor mans wife as rich

county than any other man on the
ticket"
