THE SUMMIT TRAGEDY.

What a loadstone to humanity is
gold, and how many men have been
lured to their death by the yellow
siren of Old Alder. The tragedies
for which Bill ~Fairweather, rest his
soul, is innocently responsible are
numerous and will not end, in all
probability, until every 1eck OF the
cleaning stuff is scraped from its
bedrock.
In another column of the MADISON
SAN will be found an account of last
Mondays tragedy. In it the MADI-
SONIAN has endeavored to be fair, and
TO tell the plain, unvarnished truths of
the unfortunate affair, without the
least equivocation, mental reservation,
or secret evasion Whatsoever
No n is to blame for this untortu-
nate affair save the misguided man
liz Nd0 GHb Sliol III HIS hLlCUlDu
to despoil another mans property. He
wagered his life against ill-gotten
gain and lost.
Expressions Of regret over the affair
are numerous, and are unanimously in
sympathy with Mr.. Joseph Hyde,
whose act is sanctioned and approved
by every individual who is cognizant
of the facts.
No Drawer or better body of men ex-
lists than the remnant of the "Old
guard who came acre in the early
sixties and who are living here today.
They are law abiding, nervy citizens.
One of these is Jos. Hyde. The trag-
edy at Summit but emphasizes the
fact that when duty calls, they are
ready and prompt to respond. Wei
safely rest our lives, our fortunes and
Dur honor in their hands. |
