The GAZETTE has received the follow
ing complaint from Shutdown P. O.:
For some unknown reason our June 80
GAZETTEs did not arrive here until July g.
The GAZETTE does not pretend to
know the reason of the failure in this
case. All that it does know is that
the papers we're placed in the postof-
fee at this place early Thursday morn
ing, June 3Oth. After that time the
government is supposed to take care
of them, but the fact that on the same
day The GAzETTE's entire western St..
Louis edition was held up in the Red
wood Falls postofice leads US to be-
lieve that the Shutdown package, and
probably other Northwestern packages
we're held up by the same authority.

COME OFF THE PERCH.
An Interesting Court Decision upon
a Neihart Case, Which Has Grown
Entirely ont of Personal Spite.
Right Gets an Inning 4.

The court rendered its decision Thurs
day in the election contest against
Sweeney, Walker and Arthur in the city
election at Neihart, giving judgment to
the defendants. The court found that
David Sweeney, John L.. Walker, ir.,
and George Arthur are elected and are
entitled by law to take their seats i'm
mediately.
An important decision in this case is
the rendering of the court as to the
meaning of the term .free-holder," in
law.
The court defines s'free-holder' to he
any man or unmarried oma of legal
age having a permanent abode or resi-
dence. He may rent his house, beat the
landlord out of the rent, steal all his
hre-wood and rob his neighbours hen
roosts and still be "a free-holder. The
court also holds that a man may do all
the above and still own real estate, as
abundant examples may be shown.
The result of this law suit is Just
what every sensible man in Neihart pre-
dicted. Even those once friendly to the
cause of the opposition see that the
measures of obstruction have been car
ried to a point beyond all reason. And
it is time they should cease. The old
council or rather those members whose
term of office has expired, including
the mayor, should gracefully retire and
let the peoples officers take their seats.
The day of family feuds is past. The
feud belongs not in the 10th century,
but in the dark ages, or more properly
in he'll. And when it comes to running
the politics of Neihart on a family feud,
it is about time for popular intelligence
to exercise its sway.

ABB. To Resume Work.

Charses Black is back from Barker to
assist in setting up the machinery on the
Black Diamond. This is the first work
he has attempted since he was injured
five weeks ago in a cave at the Wright &
Edwards mine. The circumstances of
the accident will interest our readers.
Mr.. Black was working in the slopes on
day shift. just as he went off shift he
shot in ore. The stope was SO wet that
the wall kept crumbling all night, and
the night force which usually worked
in this stope was for some reason moved
to another part of the mine.
Next morning, Mr.. Black found the
ore shot down the previous day covered
by about two feet of muck. He sound
ed the wall and found it loose, but he
took a chance on it standing until he
had cleared away the waste and ore from
the floor of the stope. He had shoveled
off the waste, and was gathering up the
ore, when the wall unexpectedly fell in
upon him. He was in a stopping pos
ture, and the rock fell in such a way as
to strike his left side. 1t bruised him
severely from the ribs down, and in his
thigh Il fragment of rock penetrated the
flesh and slightly fractured the femur.

Jack Norman in Barker Strikes VIM
Booth a Fatal Blow with a Pick.

A deplorable case was that which
happened in Barker Wednesday of last
week when John Norman struck VIM.
Booth with a pick, from the effects of
which the latter died Tuesday night.
The circumstances of the encounter as
we learn them are as follows: On We'd
nesday May IL the victim Of the trag-
edy was driving team for John Parr
hauling ore from the Tiger mine. He
was drinking heavily and was on this
day in a state of intoxication. Norman
who was also driving for Parr put away
his team and was sent by his employer
to bring in Booths team. Norman
found Booth about 300 yards below
Williams store, and climbed upon his
wagon. Booth showed fight and chok-
ed Norman. Both got off the wagon
and Booth drew a knife threatening to
cut out Norman's heart. Bystanders
endeavored to pacify Booth and to pre-
vent an encounter. Norman again
climbed into the wagon, but warned
Booth not to handle his knife in a care
less manner, and seized a small pick
which lay in the wagon. Booth rushed
at Norman with the open knife. but re-
ceived a blow on the skull which knock
ed him down and he rolled out of the
wagon. Those standing near caught
him as he fell upon one of the wheels,
striking his head upon the brake rod.
The tool used by Norman was a pros
pector's pick. and he struck Booth over
the eye with the fiat side of it. Booth
did not speak after being hit.
Dan Mccoy and Phil Pitcher are wit
nesses to the above facts, Mccoy being
II boy of only II. Each testified to the
same story.
Booth was brought to Neihart on Sat
urday night and taken in charge at the
Judge hotel. lie was attended by DR..
Scott, and later by DR.. Sandow, and on
Tuesday morning he was moved TO
Great Falls for the sake of better nurs-
ing, and in that city he died.
Deputy Sheriff Sweeney went to
Barker Monday to arrest Norman. He
brought his MAJ to Neihart and gave
him n hearing before Judge Marelius,
where the facts above stated were clio
tied. The defendant was bound over to
court.
Booth formerly drove team in Mel
hart where he was known by the famil-
iar title of "Rrd."

The Meeting.

One day in paradise
Two angels, beaming, strolled
Along the amber walk that lies
Beside the street of gold.
At last they met and gazed
Into each others eyes,
Then dropped their harps, amazed,
And stood in mute surprise.
And other angels came,
And as they fingered near
Heard both at once exclaim,
"Say, how did you get heref"
