AGED MINER DIES
UPON THE STREET
WILLIAM CALDWELL PASSES AWAY
IN UNDERTAKEN STRETCHER-
VETERAN OF CIVIL WAR.

William Caldwell, an old time miner of
Butte, aged about 55 years, quietly breathed
his last on an undertaker's stretcher in
front of Deyott's saloon, on Park street.
about l o'clock today. He was sitting in
a chair on the sidewalk, and il was appar-
cnt that he was very sick man and some
one summoned aid. DIR. Donaldson was
sent for, but before he arrived the dying
man was placed in an easy position on a
stretcher, where, soon after, he passed be-
yond human aid.
although his face was familiar to many
none knew where he lived or anything
about his family or other relatives, il he
has any. Someone said that he had n
son living at No. 545 East Park street, but
this was proven to be untrue.
He was suffering from consumption, and
it is the opinion of physicians that he died
of heart failure, caused by the dread
disease.
From papers found upon the body it was
learned that Caldwell was an old soldier
and a subscription list disclosed the fact
tnat he had been or was about to try to
secure enough money to take him to the
Soldiers home at Leavenworth Kan. His
age is about S. years.
An inquest will be held by Coroner
Johnson at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning
at Lavelles undertaking establishment,
where the bo@y now lies.

MONUMENTAL GALL

The most unmitigated piece of gall
yet exhibited by the clique in office
that is trying to hold Paducsh back
and hang onto the private snaps, was
last night when the bill for the cele-
brated "opinion" that brought about
the injunction suit to force Paducsh
back into the third class, was present.
ed in the council for the city to pay.
This meant that few interested men
in Office, who, on their own RESPONSE
bility and without the sanction or
authority Of the people or the peoples
representatives, sent for an opinion in
matters about which the people as q
whole are and were already satisfied,
and then after sending for that opin-
ion without asking anyone's permits
sion brought an injunction suit with
out anyone's knowledge or consent
asked the people to pay for their folly.
Il was the most monumental nerve
that can be conceived Of. 1t is hard
to understand how intelligent men
with any independence or self respect,
after they have seen the result of their
unauthorized acts as these have; after
they have perceived the Indignation
that followed the whole thing, and
after the official boards Of which they
are members fully and formally re-
pudisted their action, could have
come before the representatives Of the
people, who are already tax-ridden
and citizens of a muni cipality that is
borrowing money every month to pay
its current debts, and ask them to sad
die the expense Of that illegal" opin-
ion and lawsuit that the few officials
are personally responsible for, on
the city and the taxpayers. They
ought instead to have paid the bill
without ever alluding to it in the
council, and have been glad to get
off SO light.
1t Is fortunate for the people that
six members Of the council voted
against the bill last night, thus
throwing the cost on the men who
asked for and received the opinion,
and who ought legally and morally
to pay for il. II is matter to be
deplored by the people that the coun-
cilmen who few years ago repudi-
ated the city bonds cannot be made
TO pay every cent of the cost of law
suits, compound in terest, and the
damage that has accrued to the
oity's credit from their uncalled for
act, out Of their own pockets. II is
regretted that there IS not some
power that can hold public officials
within the bounds of law and ress-
on, but there is thus far meme in
Paduoah.
