Mistaken for an Outlaw While
Standing Guard Near
a Camp.
OFFICERS FEARED AN ATTACK.
They Were on the Trail of Two Des.
peradoes Who Raided the
Town of Separ.

LORDSBURG, n. MEX. Nov. deputy
Sheriff Frank NJ. Galloway met death at
the hands of 8 party of fellow-officers last
night while camped on the trail of a party
OF bandits. Galloway was mistaken for a
desperate and shot down by his compan-
ions, who believed their camp was about
to be attacked. He was man noted for
bravery, and the unfortunate killing has
caused general regret throughout this Sec
tion.
Sheriff Shannon and three deputies took
the trail on Wednesday after Black Jack
and Jeff Davis, who held up the town of
Separ Tuesday nighi. and followed them
to San Simon Valley. Last night they
camped near Skull Mountain. They be-
lieved they were so close to the bandits
that guard was stationed near the camp.
Galloway, while on watch at O. clock,
walked some fifteen or twenty yards away
from the camp. He made a noise which
awakened the others. They could see his
form, but did not recognize him.
Frank McGlinchy called out ''Who is
there" twice, but received no answer.
Supposing they were about to be at
tackled Sheriff Shannon gave the order to
fire. Deputy McGlinchy and Birchfield
both fired. Galloway was hit in the face,
the bullet going through his head. causing
instant death.
There was CONSERVATION in the party
when it was learned that an awful mistake
had been made.
Galloway was popular with his fellows,
who respected him because of his fearless
ness. Sheriff Shannon at once abandoned
the pursuit of the bandits and brought
the body to Lordsburg. and tonight it
was shipped to Galloway's home in Silver
City.
Frank NJ. Galloway was born and raised
in Philadelphia, where he learned the
printers trade. He came to New Mexico
about eight years ago and engaged in
| mining. He went with Shannon's posse as
q special deputy. He leaves a widow and
four young children.

meeting with their presence. The stage
was decorated with flowers and bunting,
the footliChts being banked with gold and
silver chrysanthemums. w. f. Engle-
bright presided, and after a selection by
the band and a campaign song by a
male quartet, he introduced L. S. Calkins,
nominee tor State Senator; w. S. Robin
son, nominee for Assem- blyman, and
Frank T. NiIon, nominee for Superior
Judge, who spoke in turn and laid their
claims for preferment before the people.
Major Kyle, being introduced. made a
splendid speech, saying in part:
What may be done to insure a return of pros
perity 10 this country? This is the ques ton
which we are all called upon to answer on
next Tuesday. The Republican party says
that the only reasonable and feast Dle way by
which we may hope to insure the prosperity of
this country is by providing mpIoyment for
which stable and never waverlng currency
guarantees TO the employed-a dollar of the
highest possible purchasing power.
Between the years of 1880 and 1890 this
country increased its wea tn far more rapidly
ihan any other nation under the sun has done
at any like period in the history of the world.
Mr.. MulnalI, the celebrated English Stats
tician, says that the New England States in
creased their wealth during the ten years
mentioned from three billions TO FIVE billions
9of dollars-a ratio of so per cent increase in
ten yearsl The Middle States increased their
wealth from nine billions to seventeen billions
of dollars-a ratio Of 80 per cent. The South
ern States increased their wealth from two bill
lions TO nine billions OF dollars-a ratio of $50
per cent; while the Pacific Coast States-,n-
Guiding the brightest star of them all-in-
creased their wealth from six hundred and
ffty-six millions 10 six billions OF dollars-at
the striking and unparalleled ratio of 1000
per cent in ten years!
The world points to this marvellous record in
amaZement for no page of history reveals
anything like unto IL. We had, during the
period mentioned, neither free silver nor free
trade. On the other hand we did have the
enforcement of the great law of protection to
American industries and we were then as
now. on sound-money basis.
How may we reasonably hope to induce a
return of like era of prosperity except by the
adoption of the same laws and policy which
then governed this country?
Major Kyle was followed by Mr.. Sell
wage, whose speech was well received.
