A Good EXsmpIe.

Boone county Democrats propose to
set other Missouri counties a good
example. They have arranged for a
series of barbacues and meetings all
over the county between now and
the day of election and will arouse
the 900 democrats of the grand old
county to the end that every man
will be at the polls on the S:h of Ne
vember. According to this plan
there is no apathy to be permitted.
It would be well fer every county
in the state to follow ths same meth

votes ID Missouri, but they must go

greater majority than Texas,

 KINGS RIVER Farmers Openly Fight the Irrigation Com-

 Grain Rot.
But the Corporations May Send Out an Armed Guard, and Then
 There Will Be Trouble.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

FRESNO, April flowing to the drought and lack of snow in the noun tains there has been a great deal of trouble in this county between the irri- gation companies and farmers, whose grain is rotting In the ground because they are unable to get water on it, al- though they belong to irrigation dis tricts and pay regular assessments for water which this year they have been unable to secure. As a rule there is no complaint of this character, but this is an exceptional year, and it is be- lieved before the season is over serious trouble will result, and possibly blood shed.
 Several indignation meetings have been held, but the angry farmers this morning resorted to more drastic meas ures. Over 150 indignant farmers armed with shotguns went to a point where the two divisions of Kings River part, about seven miles above Center vile, and began the work of putting in two dams so that none of the water will run into the lower division. That will divert the water into the east division, and the companies most affected by that are the Fresno Irrigation Com pany and the Lower Kings River Com pany.
 The water will be diverted into the

Deputy Constable Adams of MendOta Wounds
 J. L. Baden.
Fired Because His Victim Was Stealing a Ride and Tried
 to Get Away.
Tho Victim of the Reckless Officer Was Beating His Way Back.
 to Fresno.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

FRESNO, April 7.-Deputy Constable Adams of Mendota shot and most likely mortally wounded Joseph l.. Baden early this morning because the latter ran when the officer attempted to place him under arrest for stealing ride on train. A 34-caliber ball entered the back and came out over the heart. Baden was taken to the County Hos pital, and was still alive at g o'clock to-night, but bleeding internally and not expected to live till morning.
 Baden was not g. tramp, but we'll known in this city, where he worked. He was returning from Randsburg, where he lost all the money he had. Public sentiment is against the officer here, who is regarded as having acted too hastily with his pistol. He has not been arrested, but if Baden dies he will be placed under arrest
 Baden had been put off the train sev- eral times by the conductor, but slip ped on again. The conductor wired to Mendota to have an officer present when the train arrived. Deputy Con- stable Adams accordingly met the train and called upon Baden to surren- der. Instead of complying Baden ran away. Adams drew his revolver and fired three times to frighten the fleeing man.
 The fourth shot took effect, although the officer protests he did not aim to hit the fugitive, but to shoot close to scare him. It was with great difficulty that Baden told his story, every breath being torture to him and speaking al- most impossible. Some time ago he went to Randsburg. He worked for a time there, but was defrauded out of his wages, amounting to about $16O. Then he went to San Francisco. Soon he found himself without money and determined to come back to Fresno, where he thought that friends could get him work. He had never beaten his way before, but had to do it to get here. He had never been under arrest and did not want to be arrested.
 Baden is thirty-two years of age and a native of Kentucky. He comes of good family and has several brothers living at that place. The conductor of the train upon which he was riding has sworn out a warrant charging Baden with vagrancy.
 About year ago Adams shot an 1n- dian, and the victim was confined in a hospital five months. The officer saw him committing crime, and when he would not surrender shot him. This afternoon Assistant District Attorney Jones and Court Reporter Gearheart took statement from Baden at the county hospital which will be used in the prosecution of Adams should the wounds prove fatal.

Returning Parties of Klondikers Toll of Some Great Digsings Around
 the Dome Mountain.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

JUNEAU, Alaska, April 2 (by steam ship Victorian to Seattle, April D. Jack O'Gara and Robert Insley, two old and well-known residents of Juneau, arrived here to-day on the Victorian, eighteen days from Dawson. This time beats the record.
 They announce the most sensational news that has come out of Dawson this winter in regard to gold discoveries. Skookum Creek is proving another bo- nanza, they say. Nothing like it was ever known in the Yukon country be- fore. MT. O'Gara says that bench claims on Skookum and Little Skookum creeks are proving as rich as the pay streak in the bottom of the best creeks. He says that nuggets of pure gold ranging in value from $100 to $554 have been dug out of the side hills of the two Skookums, and the like of it was never seen before It runs in size from coarse gold and flax-seed nuggets to chunks of the yellow metal nearly as large as a mans hand. All these creeks flow down from a big mountain called The Dome of the County. It seems that the gold has broken off or melted and run down from this mountain in some cen tury long gone by. These sidehill claims were reported last fall, but they were not supposed to be so rich as they have since proved to be.
 Frank Berry, a brother of Clarence Berry, has bought two claims on Lit tie Skookum. One of the biggest stam- pedes of the winter occurred from Dawson upon the report of the richness of these sidehill claims and much side hill stalking has since been done on all the tributary creeks of the Klondike.
 Another party, which left Dawson March 4, reached Dyea March 29. This is composed of G. E. Campbell of Seat tle who carried out dispatches from The Calls Dawson correspondent; J. G. Courtney of Seattle, and MT. Fry of Portland, Or. They corroborate the report of rich sidehi1l finds on the two Skookum creeks.
 MT Campbell said: Some very large nuggets were found one of them weighing S524 and some cents. Every thing around there is staked clear to the top of the mountain. This sidehill ground has proved a big surprise Nothing like it was ever discovered in the country before. It created a big stampede, and they are still stalking out claims around there on the noun tain sides" HAL HOFFMAN.
