about twenty-six years of age, when
on the morning of Augut 20, at Ca
lena, S. D. he was accidently killed.
He was delivering groceries wher,
his wagon capsizing, he was thrown
forward, the team a very heavy one,
falling upon him and crushing out
his life before he could be extrica-
ted. He had been in the Hills
about two years, chiefly about Her
mosa where an uncle and aunt, Mr..
and Mrs William Reese reside, and
in Keystone where cousin, Mrs.
Dunning lives. He had only been
in Galena about two weeks, but his
genial spirit, uniform courtesy and
manifest integrity had captured the
good will of all. He was young

Panning q old on Main Stree

It attracted crowd, and created
considerable excitement, says the
Deadwood Pioneer. Bystanders
crowded each other and craned their
necks for glimpse Of the glittering
specks as though they had never
seen gold before, and yet it was only
a relic of the reckless extravagant
days of '76. The old prospector,
Joe Stalcup, who during the morn
ing, washed out something over a
dollars worth Of coarse gold, had
washed out $3.50 worth of gold on
Main street in ~ and knew where
the gold had been wasted. When
the work of breaking the ground for
the new Berg building adjoining
the Pioneer Office was begun, he
came down with his pan to the place
where the bar of the saloon had
stood and went to work. There
they had weighed out the gold dust
that was paid for drinks. when Joe
Hayes kept a saloon there in '76.
There were big cracks in the pine
floor, and gold too plenty to take
care OF it. 1t was spilled in the
weighing, when the miners got
drunk, and when they got mad.
Once, a man we'll known in the Hills
came in considerably intoxicated,
with 81 ounces in his sack, and
threw it down on the floor with such
force that the sack burst and the
gold flew all over the floor, over the
clothes and into the face of the bar
tender.
An old-timer in the crowd look
ing on yesterday recalled the time
when he lost $3.50 in gold, at faro,
and in disgust threw away his re-
naming $1oo. This recalled the
story of two men going home in the
early evening who dropped their
bag of gold and spilled in on the
sidewalk, and after picking up a lit
tie decided it was easier to 60 back
and win it than to pick that up.
no won der there is gold where those
old saloons stood. The building
that had been occupied by Joe
Hayes saloon was burned in the
fire of '79, and when it was rebuilt
was built on the old sills, so that the
ground was never dug up and
washed. The second building placed
on the lot was burned in March,
1894.

Depew truthfully says, clothes it's
possessors with absolute power over
country's industries.
There is something radically
wrong in the administration OF any
government when fifty men are per-
mitted to exercise control over
the industries and commerce of
70,0O0,000 of people,
The Inquirer has an abiding faith
in the honesty, ability and patriotism
Of enough men in all political par
ties in every state in the union to
drive from power the worshipers of
gold, and restore the financial sys-
tenn under which all industries pros
pered.
The common voter is not anxious
to consult the wishes or ask the con-
sent OF any foreign power before de-
termining the financial state of his
own country.
The demonetization of one half of
the constitutional money of the
United States was accomplished by
a conspiracy composed by foreign
syndicates and our national bank
ers. The conspiracy has been suff-
GENTLY successful to clothe fifty men
with absolute power over the in
dustries.
Real estate owners, farmers, me-
chanics, merchants, manufacturers,
wage earners, skilled and unskilled
labor, all producers of wealth have
been the victims of that conspiracy.
The scheme of the conspirators
embraces the entire subjugation of
the masses to the money power.
Not in the history of the world has
there been an example of such rapid
creation of wealth, and such won
derful absorption in the hands of
the few.
The quotation from the interview
of Mr. Depew ought to set men to
thinking. 1t should decide the voter
to enlist in the ranks of the common
people.
This is not a conflict between old
parties. The contestants are to de-
eide which is the stronger in this
republic, the rich mans money or
the poor mans vote? Bulldozing
fat-frying, intimidation, bribery and
lying are the weapons of the fifty.
The simple ballot in the hands of
men who can neither be coaxed,
bought nor driven is the only
weapon of the million.

Liberty-Loving American Citizens
Asked to Give this Their
Earnest Consideration.

Why will not the people awake to
their danger? Why can they not
see how near to abject slavery the
American people are? Will they
submit? The Following article
which we clip from the Cincinnati
Inquirer comes too near the truth:
Chauncey M. Depew, of New York,
has national reputation as
scholar, an orator and a republican
\ pollution. This great ability is
universally recognized, and but for
his Identification with the railroad
interests he would be the formid-
able candidate for his party for pres
ident of the United States.
He never speaks without knowing
or believing what he says to be true.
In a recent interview by the Inter
ocean, ne SAID:
THERE ARE FIFTY MEN IN
NEW YORK WHO CAN IN
TWENTY-FOU HOURS STO?
EVERY WHEEL ON ALL RAIL
ROADS, CLOSE EVERY DOOR
OF ALL OUR MANUFACTURERS
LOCK EVERY SWITCH OF ALL
THE TELEGRAPH LINES, AND

STATES. THEY CAN DO so BE
CAUSE THEY CONTROL THE
MONEY WHICH THIS COUNTRY
PRODUCES.
If this is true and we have no evil
dence that the statement is false,
how lamentable and deplorable is
the condition of 70,000,O 900 people?
There can be no doubt that who
ever controls country's money
control S it's industries and com
merce, whether the number be fifty
or as many millions. What trav-
esty on the declaration that this is
government of the people, by the
people and for the people, when
fifty men in the nation s metrop-
oils can make beggars aud slaves of
10000, 900 of people in twenty-four
hours. 1t is no marvel that the pa
triot Lincoln in anticipation of the
possibility of such a final result
should have had greater anxiety for
the safety of his country than dur
ing the darkest hour of the civil
war. The Enquirer asks with ear
nestness and sincerity, if it is not
time that the people were more in
terested in the supreme issue of the
hour2 If fifty men in New York
have such almighty power, there
was more truth than poetry in the

Judge Scott, of Omaha, DELIVERIES a
Splendid Silver Talk.
THE GOLD BUGS ON THE RUN
The Speaker Tells Some Facts
That Strike Dismay to the
Hearts of q. O. Ps.

Library hall was crowded to it's
utmost capacity Wednesday night
to hear Judge G. R. Scott expound
the the silver gospel
The proceeding rain of nearly
twenty-four hours had prevented the
holding of the outdoor rally in the
court house yard as had been ar
ranged for, but a determination
seemed to pervade the populace to
60 and hear Judge Scott in the ev-
ening in spite of the elements.
The hall was tastily decorated
and after selection by the Key
stone band, the Bryan Silver Quar-
tett made it's first appearance and
rendered campaign selection
which was enthusiastically received.
Hon. j. M. Woods, democratic
national committeeman, next intro
duced Judge Scott and as that gen
tleman stepped to the front of the
platform he was greeted with a
burst of applause which made him
feel that he was in the hands of
friends. He proceeded at once to the
question under discussion, begin
ing with the earliest days of the re-
public and following the monetary
history of the country from that
time down to the present day. He
proved beyond doubt that the de-
m 0netization of silver was uncon-
stitutional, obtained through gross
fraud and deception and branded
John Sherman as an Euglish ennis
sary and fit comrade for such men
as Jeff Davis and Benedict Arnold.
The speaker wildly portrayed the
trail of dissolution made by the
money power in it's forcing the same
policy upon tne countries Of the old
world which is now attempting to
saddle onto the American people
through the republican party,
headed by the sphinx of Canton.
He pictured the desolation already
wrought by the hand of the money
power in the western states and
briefly pictured the robbery of the
masses through the medium of the
national banks. During the closing
of his remarks the judge described
the methods Of force and coercion
now being employed by the national
banks to whip the people into line
and COMPEL them to support the
policy which has already robbed
them. In his treatment of this
phase of the question he warned the
national banks not to press tho mat.
ter too far, stating that the spirit
of 1776 was still alive, that the great
reserve now slumbering within the
breasts OF the common people would
be aroused and that the hand that
oppressed them would be struck
down. His remarks in this regard
were by some considered radical,
yet he predicted the true future if
national banking interests and
moneyed plutocracy are allowed an
extension of their reign of tyranny
and robbery through the election o1
their agent Mckinley. The speaker
spent little time in eulogizing that
great commoner, William J. Bryan
