Uncle Sam Takes The Town,

The town was startled about noon
to-day by shril whistle which
proved to be that of a locomotive
from the east on the way to Carlin.
Slowly it pulled through the yard,
and, hating at the telegraph office
a short TINA, went down to the water
tank and then backed up on the side
track
Sitting on the tender, armed to the
teeth, were four soldiers of the 10Th
U. S. Infantry. the engine proved to
be the escort of a train bearing five
hundred E1en of the 10th U. S. In
fantry under command of Col. Po-
land, Of the 18th regiment of U. S.
Infantry from Fort Douglass, Utah,
under orders to open the Central
Pacific railroad between Ogden and
Sacramento.
From Captain Whitehall of Co. H.,
the INDEPENDENT learned that one
company of the soldiers would be left
at Carlin and the remainder would be
scattered along the line wherever
their presence was needed. He also
informed us that the latest news from
the strike was that President Debs
had telegraphed to the A. R. U. boys
that the strike was failure and to
resume work. Also that several Gull
verts between Moleen and Carlin
were burned last night.
The soldiers were a gentlemanly
lot of men and looked as if they would
obey orders.
The INDEPENDENT sincerely hopes
that no rioting or bloodshed will take
place in Carlin or anywhere within
the limits Of this State. It's sympa-
thies have been with the strikers and
will continue with them 80 long as
they refrain from acts of violence.

WHEATON, ILL.,, Dec. Is. Edward OFT,
son of Louis OFT, n Nell-to-do farmer
residing ! mile from this place,
was brutality murdered by two
hired hands AT o'clock Tues
day evening. The murderers had
been stopping at the farm only
about "a week, having tramped their
way TO the place, where they applied
for work. They were quiet men
and appeared 20 be wholly inof-
fensive. All went well until last
evening, when the two men. accompa-
MED by young OFT, who was
"a years old, went out TO the
horses, cattle. etc The elder OFT had
gone 20 a neighboring farm, leaving
his wife and son alone with the two
men. Soon after the men left the
house Mrs. OFT heard some one
grooming as if in anguish and
started 60 investigate. At the
door OF her house she was met by the
two hired men. one OF whom seized
her by the throat and threatened to
shoot her II She attempted to make an
cutlery. Meanwhile the other man
searched the house, finding "A gold
watch and sos which they took and
hurried away from the neighborhood.
Mrs. OFT then went TO the barn and
there she found the lifelcss body Of
her son. The body was bathed in
blood and the floor was covered with
blood. The young mans throat
had been cut and his head
crushed in IL is thought the
young man was first struck
with q club and, grooming, attracted
his mothers attention. Then, fearing
immediate detection, the murderers
used knife, with which they severed
his throat. TWAS quite evident from the
appearance OF the barns interior that
fierce struggle took place between
young OFT and his slayers before he
was dealt the quieting blow. One OF the
murdercrs Is an Englishman OF about
Is years while the other is German
OF so or 81 years. Their true names
arc not known. as the former was sim
ply known as Samuel and the latter as
