charged, by an ignominious sell out
and back down. His worst enemy
could not have wished him placed in
a more contemplate attitude.
As to whether Cardwell got 50, 900,
or 81 800 or single cent, we are not
informed. We are satisfied, however,
that he never received a cent from
the Republic, or Mr.. Cook or the dem.
ocratic party. II he got money to
dismiss the suit, it was from the par
ty or parties who instigated it and
lost control and feared for their own
regulations. But the claim that he
makes, that he got money, sounds
mighty "fishy" to us.
The democratic papers and politi-
clans who upheld Cardwell in his dis
reputable attempt at a "hold up
should now be heartily ashamed of
themselves. The name of Cardwell
should be expunged from the demo-
CRATER eA and mentioned no more -in
party councils.

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION. :
LOST OPPORTUNITY.

The verdict of the Naval Courtroom
demuing Admiral Schley was not I'M
expected to the American people.
The fight was well understood to be
that of the navy department ut
Washington, which started in to dis
grace Schley. 1t is no doubt hard for
the creature to rise above the will Of
thecreator, and especially when there
are future favors to be considered.
Admiral Dewey's minority report
shows that his Judgment was that
Schlev should not only have been
fully indicated, but given full credit
as commandments for the de-
Struction of the Spanish fleet off
Santiago do Cuba, ON that memoir
able 3rd of July. But the Admirafs
spirit was weak. He evidently had
no desire to come in conflict with that
powerful naval clique that was
bounding the man on trial for his
honor and reputation. He made n
faint effort to assert his betternature
and perform his sworn duty, but the
official pressure was too great.
1t is seldom two great opportuni-
ties are offered to one man in life to
make his name immortal. Fortu-
nate indeed is the man who has one,
and has the intelligence and courage
to embrace it. To Admiral Dewey
two great opportunities were offered.
The first he embraced, and the world
applauded him the greatest naval
hero Of ages. The second came when
he was given the opportunity to de-
iend brother officer, who had won
u great naval victory, equal il not
gTeIteT than his own, from pack or
iackals and hyenas trying to drag
him to his death. Then indeed would
his greatness have shone, and men
would have applauded him as great
in war, but greater still in peace in
doing his full duty in the sight of
God and man,
And Dewey could have righted this
great wrong, if he had fixed his pur-
pose, as he. did in far off Manila bay,
he would have damned the hidden
shoals and torpedoes and mines, the
cliques, the cabols and conspirators,
he would have stirred for the right,
and turned his batteries upon the
evils and corruptions, false witnesses
and damnable plots and sunk them
alias he did the Spanish fleet on that
beautiful May morning, and his name
and fame would have been assured
without shadow or speek to mar
them.

CARDWELL'S BACK DOWN.

". o. Cardwell has already receiv-
ed entirely too much free advertising.
By his own actions he has demon
strated that he was Il seeker after
notOriety, and hp has got enough to
last an ordinary individual "a life
time. He began his suit against the
st. Louis Republic tn ''vindicate his
honor, = ms he claimed, and with
biare of trumpets threatened to sue
every paper in the state that publish
ed Secretary Cooks letter, among
them The TIMES. The processes or
dinarily pursued in suits OF that ma
ture were too prosaic for this apos-
tie OF political reform. He wanted
all the notoriety possible out of this
"vindication OF his honor" business.
He began taking dispositions before
notary public in Jackson county
and summoned prominent demo-
cratic politicians ani office holders
from different sections of the state to
give their Testimony.
Their efforts in this direction had
more the appearance OF trying to
besmirch the democratic organiza-
ton, than OF helping Cardwell in his
libel suit. 1t looked very much like
those witnesses were being played
horse with. Mr.. Gardweil himself
didn't testify Not one of his star
witnesses were examined, yet he dis
missed the suit in consideration OF
81, 800 paid to him, so he claims, by
party by the name of Brown, whom
be had never seen before, who did
not claim to represent The Republic,
the only other party to the suit and
the only one with whom a settlement
could have been made. The Repub-
lie vehemently denies that it ever
paid Cardwell penny OF retracted q
word published about him.
Now some people are wondering

what became of his honor that need

he claims, in the opinion OF many,
his honor was dearly bought. That
unknown philanthropist paid entire
ly too much for the article.
Mr.. Cook, the Republic and every
honest democrat in the state
wanted the investigation contin-
ued If managers Of the dem
ocratic party had promised protec-
ton to corporations and trusts, in
consideration of campaign contribu-
tions, the facts ought to have been
brought out, and the author OF such
an expose would have earned the ev-
erlasting gratitude OF the democratic
party. When Cardwell made such
charges Mr.. Cook denounced him as
a liar, tool of the lobby and a dis
grace to his party. When summon
ed to give his testimony Mr.. Cook
travelled AaA-aerass- -the--state- and
answered freely and fully every ques-
ton asked him. Neither Mr.. Cook
nor the Republic attempted to put "A

to the office of the sheriff Adams ask
ed permission of the officer to step
into a side room, which was granted,
the policeman taking up a position
in the hall from which he thought he
could keep an eye on the movements
of his prisoner.
There are several windows in the
room into which Adams retired and

when he went to look for him found
him missing.
The evidence against Adams is said
to be quite strong and the prospect

tiary for burglary nerved him to the
attempt to escape, which at last ac

DAY OF EXCITEMENT AT RED
LODGE.
.CHARAyARI ENDS FATALLY
Under Sheriff Shoots Serenader-
Alleged Horsethief Mortally
Wounded Resisting Arrest.

A wedding and a homicide, one
growing out of the other, are furnish
ing food for gossip to the members OF
the Red Lodge Finish colony just now.
The first mentioned event took place
several days ago, while the other oc-
CURED last Wednesday night and was
the outcome Of an adhesion to Old
country customs.
During the earlier part of the week
one of the young Fins was married
and his friends decided to treat him
to a charavarl and after assembling
in a large sized crowd, equipped with
the usual instruments employed in a
diversion of that sort, repaired to the
house occupied by the newly married
couple. After the first overture from
the serenaders they sent a committee
to the groom and made a demand for
a certain sum of money for the pur'
pose of buying beer and as a price
immunity from further attention
of the same sort. Either the amount
asked was too large or the feelings OF
the groom were SO outraged by the
performance which had been tender
ed for his special benefit and delecta-
ton that he was not in a complacent
mood. At all events, he refused to
comply with the demand and appeal
ed to the sheriff for protection against
further attention from the serenaders,
after having held out for a few nights
and ignored their demands for back
sheech.
In response to the appeal Under
Sheriff Gebo went to the house We'd
nesday night to protect the inmates.
When the serenaders put in their ap-
pearance Mr.. Gebo ordered them to
leave and upon their refusal to obey
arrested one of the leaders. While
in the act of taking his prisoner away
the officer was set upon by the mob
and received some severe treatment.
They knocked him down and beat and
kicked him until he felt himself in
danger Of his life and drew his re
yolver and fired. The bullet struck one
of his a~ssailants, inflicfing a wound
from which the man died yesterday
morning.
The death of the Fin caused intense
excitement among his compatriots
and threats of lynching Gebo were
freely made. So serious was the out
look that it was deemed advisable to
appoint a number of special deputies
to preserve order.
An inquest on the dead man was in
progress last evening and as if more
excitement were needed a supposed
horse thief mortally wounded was
brought to town by a sherif's posse.
The man was the partner Of another
arrested earlier in the day ana jailed
on the charge of horse stealing in
Wyoming. After the arrest OF the
first man it. was discovered that his
partner was at a point about three
miles from town and the posse went
to bring him. When called upon te
surrender the fellow replied. by open
ing fire on his woufd-be captors. The
fire was returned promptly and with
such effective results that when il
ceased a supposed rustler was so neal
deaths door that his recovery was
considered among the responsibilities
