Where is the Rider?

Thos. O'Donnel and Thos. Nelson,
residing at Hells Canyon, about twelve
miles west of this city, have now in
their possession a roam horse about nine
years old, with a spade brand and bar
underneath. which came to their prem
ises on Tuesday of last week, under cir
cumstances that would. point to the
probability of its rider having met with
a serious accident. The horse was
saddled and bridled. and coat was
strapped to the saddle. There was mud,
or dirt upon the seat of the saddle,
which suggests the probability of the
horse having fallen oyer backward,
whereby the rider may have been seri.
ously injured or possibly killed. At this
writing Monday nothing is known
concerning the identity or fate of the
rider, but man, whose name we failed
to learn, came to the premises of
O'Donnel and Nelson a few days after
the horse was found, and recognized the
animal as one he had seen on the Sat
urday previous at Keystone, at which
time it was being led by very large
man, stranger to him, with black
mustache. The coat is OF large size,
having a breast measure of 46 inches
which corresponds with the Keystone
mans description of the man he saw
with the horse.
1t is very probable that the unknown
rider of this animal has met with sad
fate, the particulars of which may never
be known.

The Hot Springs Herald has no ex-
cuse to offer for locating our fellow citi-
zen and republican candidate for rail-
road commissioner, d. w. McFadden, at
Sturgis, other than the alleged fact
which is not fact, that the gentleman
was never heard ofbeyond the confines
Of his own town until he got hustle on
him, and, as did other non entitlers, Sc
cured place on the republican state
ticket" We still contend that the
Heralds ignorance is entirely inexcus-
able, and even remarkable when the fol-
lowing facts are considered: Mr.. Nc
Fadden has been resident of the Black
Hills for eighteen years, during which
time he has been recognized as one Of
the prominent pratical miners Of the
region, having during large portion Of
the time held important positions with
the leading mining companies of the
region. He was two years ago. a promi-
nent candidate for nomination to the
office for which he is now the nominee
which in itself gave him degree of
prominence that should haye been
sufficient notice to newspaper publish
ed in an adjoining county TO render his
location familiar. The Herald may
have occasion to refer to this gentleman
later on, after he has succeeded to the
position to which he now aspires, in
which event, it will be necessary to
know where he lives, and we trust that,
in the meantime, the Herald may not
forget his address.

this city, and we are more than pleased
to announce that on Saturday evening,

evenings entertainment Of char
acter never previously pres

pecially are we gratified to announce the
appearance of troupe Of such pro-
nounced merit as the Boston, which
was favored with the largest audiences
in the towns Of the northern Hills that
we're ever assembled to witness an en-
tertainment of any character in their
history. Their weeks engagement in
Lead was the most successful ever real
lied by any travelling troupe in the
Hills, and the press gave them the
highest concentrations. They richly

by an audience that will only be limited
by the capacity of the hall. The play
selected for this occasion is THE
Mascot" is very popular and never fails
to please. 1t was rendered by the CON-
pany at Lead, where it was greeted with
unbounded applause. The Call of that
place gave an extended mention Of the
entertaining play, from which We ex.
tract the following:
Seldom has such large and appreci-
ative audience filled the Lead opera
house as that which greeted the Boston
Comic Opera Company last night; rare

divided interest and been so enthusiasts.

never before did an audience leave the
hall more thoroughly satisfied with the
evenings entertainment. Too much
cannot be said in praise Of the opera.

the drop curtain shut the last scene from
the eyes of the audience there was one
continual round of enjoyment

The Lincoln JourHafsays: "Late and
authoritative reports from Illinois show
that the stories about the spread of
silverism "like wi!dfre" there are pro-
ducts of the Imagination. 1t is asserted
by sound money democrats that they
will cast nearly $4,000 votes for Nc
Kinley in Chicago alone, and that the
republican majority in the state will not
be less than 100000. The chances for
lively fight in Indiana have been much
lessened by the decision Of the populists
to walk in the middle Of the road. The
energies Of the national committee can
beconcentrated in few western states
now and in two months it will be pos
sible to announce that victory has
been won. 1t is believed in many
quarters that the Bryan campaign will
break down of it's own weight in less
than month";"

A late Huron special says: "A. B.
Kittridge, national committeeman, and
forty members of the republican state
central committee are in conference
planning for the campaign which will
begin early next month. by thoroughly
organizing the party in every township
in the state. Reports from many coun-
ties indicate that populism will not be
materially advanced by fusion with
democrats, and few republicans will
decline to support the entire republican
ticket. 1t is claimed that the loss from
the republican ranks will be more than
compensated for by democrats and
populists supporting the republican
nominees, and South Dakota will con-
tinue in the republican column on the
national and state tickets"

Cause and INJECT.

Every idle factory, every man who is
without work, every American home in
which the comforts of life are not found
because there is no work to be had, every
shop which has closed its doors not
knowing when they will again be open
ed is an object lesson Of the folly and
idiocy Of the Democratic idea of placing
American labor in competition with
the pauper labor of the eastern coun-
tries. In Ohio alone last year there
were 5s,952 less persons employed IN
workshops and factories than in 1893
and the loss in wages was So, 2,09l ,2s0.
In 1898 the republican tariff Law was in
operation. In 1895 the democratic tariff
law was in operation.-Toledo Blade.

Under the free and unlimited coinage

realized a fair margin of profit for their
product under the Mckinley tariff law,
will be slow in casting their ballots for
Bryan, who advocated free wool in
congress and voted for the Wilson
German bill, under which they are re-
ceiving a price for their feeces which
scarcely covers the cost Of production.
If the wool growers are not Totally blind
