MURDERED.
Tom Finel Assassinated Near


Oreana by Jack Long.
Sunday night last, at Cooper's
ranch, about miles from Oreana,
Owyhee county, Thomas Finel was
shot and instantly killed by a man
known as Jack Long. From Sol.
Newcomer, the Oreana stage driver,
we get the following particulars of
the cold-blooded act
Long was employed at the ranch.
Finel, who was for a number of
years resident of Gilmore county,
went to Cooper's few weeks ago
to break horses for teaming this
summer between Mountain Home
and Atlanta. Sunday evening he
and Long were scufiling on the
premises, in friendly way, shortly
after which Long entered the house.
About an hour after this occurrence
Finel and several other men re-
paired to the house for the purpose
of sleep, one of the Cooper boys in
the lead. Just as Finel entered the
door Long fred three shots, one en-
tering his side, the second an arm
and the the third penetrating his
heart. Long, who was barefooted,
then hastily left the house, remark
ing as he passed Finel's PROSTATE
body: "You s. b., I'll learn you
to shake me up" Long went to
Oreana, procurdd a new pair of
shoes, related what he had done,
and said that he was going to Silver
City and surrender to proper au-
thorities, but up to Monday noon
nothing further of his movements
was known.
Tom Finel, the murdered man,
was well known in this place, Pine
Grove. Rocky Bar and Atlanta. He
was an industrious, jovial man, aged
about 80 years, and his sudden tax
ing off is regretted by many friends.

William Gibson, the young man who
pleaded guilty to burglary Of the till at
the Milwaukee house, was yesterday
morning sentenced by Judge Benton to
Imprisonment in the state penitentiary
at Deer Lodge for 18 months. Gibson
said that he had no reason to offer why
sentence should not be imposed. In
answer to questions, he said that he had
resided in Montana for two years, being
engaged at rai'roading for Is months,
and being engaged at the Milwaukee
house for a few weeks afterwards, but
was unemployed at the time of his com
mission of the crime. 1t seems that it
was Gibson's custom to stand without
the counter at the Milwaukee house and,
in some way, manipulate the combination
or the cash drawer until he could push
the drawer in, when he would 60 behind
the counter, sit down, pull the register
over the drawer, to conceal his hand, and
abstract the cash. Judge Benton gave
him some sound advice and then i'm
posed sentence.

farmer. AS a boy he had few educational
advantages, but he was determined to be a
lawyer. With this end in view he took a
short course at Lebanon academy, and then
pluckily worked his way through Dartmouth
college, teaching school and keeping up with
his class so well that he was graduated with
honors.
Then he went to Johnstown, N. Y, where
he studied law and managed a newspaper at
the same time. After three months Of this
work he went to Troy, where he worked
as reporter and read law at eS-sTy opportu-
nifty. His industry was unceasng and in
1879, four years after he left college he was
admitted to the bar and began to practice
his profession in Troy. He soon became a
successful lawyer, and handled some impor-
tant cases. He had always been an ardent
Republican, but had never found time to
take more active interest in politics than
voting and making an occasional stumpinp
tour. In 1894 however, when Troy was a
seething political caldron, owing to the MUIR
der OF Albert Ross at q primary, he jumped
into the arena and at once took the lead
He was chairman of the committee which
brought bat" Shea, the man who shot Ross

day, asking him if he would meet Lavigne in

or Is. McKeever at once replied that the

he would be only too glad.

clared Maher a gutter, not knowing that
Burke was Peters friend and townsman.
Burke asked Sharkey: f.'Will you fight Nah
err Sharkey at once replied that he would.
Burke pulled out his pocketbook and wanted
to put up forfeit of 1850 for a match be-
tween the two men for $1,000 This action
took the breath of both Sharkey and his
trainer and they got out OF further argu-
ment by saying that as Sharkey's contract
with. Corbett precluded his making any
matches with other nren, Maher would have
to wait until the battle between Corbett and
Sharkey had beenJsettIed.

tendencies above referred to- the situ-
alton in Wall street has been material
~ improved through the large import
of gold, which is known now to have
reached $40, 100000, including what is on
the way. Good authorities have esti-
mated that we shall get at least $780,
100000 before the current stops; but
others are confident of the total reach
ing $40,000,000. This shows the advan-
tage of being on the worlds money
basis; for this importation of gold
comes here as money, and while 1t
does not go into actual circulation
amongst the people, it does go into
banks and performs the functions of
circulation just the same, as it re-
lieves the notes that otherwise would
have to be held as reserve. The same
is the case as regards so much of the
receipts as go into the treasury, as
much of it will. 1t releases a cores
ponding amount of legal tender money,
which will pass into the general circu-
lation. If we had silver basis money,
this gold would be nothing more than
merchandise to us, on account of it's
high premium. AS a matter of fact,
if we were on a silver basis, we could
not attract gold here from Europe on
any terms. This current gold import
ought to open the eyes of the farmers
and others who have been misled by
demagogues to believe in rice coinage
at 16 to l. and should convince them
that, If we maintain the gold standard,
we can withdraw a great deal more
gold from Europe than they can take
from us; in other words, we don't want
more money manufactured. especially
of an inferior character, but we want
to maintain the sound money that we
now have and let the world know that
we are going to do so. It will give us
what we now lack-confdence, which
will bring the European money here to
an extent to equaliZe the rates of in
terest in America with those Of Eng
land, France and Germany That kind
of confidence is already beginning to
return to us.
