THE DOwNIE-wRIaHT PLANT
PROGRESSING
WILL run FULL CAPACITY SOON
Rapid Oity's New Industry Now
Running. Many Large
orders Received.

One of Rapid City's greatest
industrial concerns is almost
completed.
It is now but a matter Of a
few days until the water will be
turned on in the flume at the
Downie Wright Iron foundry
and the giant water wheel will
start the motors which will pro-
pei the machinery of the largest
manufacturing plant Of the kind
in the west. .Atzpresent the
drills and other machinery are
being run by a large gasoline en-
CINE. The foundry is at pres
ent equipped with but one GU
pola which has a capacity of
about five tons per ten hours.
Another larger one Of ten tons
size is soon to be installed.
The first thing that meets the
gaze of a visitor as he is being
courteously shown through the
plant is the moulding depart
ment Of the foundry. There
the moulds large and small are
made with sand from patterns.
These patterns are perhaps the
most valuable assets of the plant
and a fireproof vault for them
isin the course Of construction.
Before being poured into the
moulds the pig iron is Of course
melted in the cupola.
This is accomplished by layers
of coke. The iron and coke are
carried to the cupola by an ele-
vator which Mr.. Downie tells
us is of their own contriving. 1t
is certainly vast improvement
upon the old way of shoveling.
In the machine shop all the
various drills, milling machines
and other finishing apparatus
are set up. One line of. shaft
ing is now running but another
along the entire length Of the
building is being placed in po-
sition. Two ore cars for the
Hidden Treasure Company were
near the entrance of the shop,
all complete and ready for ship
ment. The force are now work
ing upon an order of forty cars
for the Reliance Company ei
the Northern Hills.
In aroom off from the office
building all the draughtin9g is
done. Here each part Of every
machine that is turned out is
carefully drawn and scaled.
This is the work Of the younger
Mr.. Downie, and the young
man is certainly quite expert.
The blue prints are all the work
of a master in the art of me-
chanical draughting.
About 35 men are at present
employed at the plant and more
are being employed daily.

a TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE
Woman has a thrilling night with
j Mountain Lion near Harney Peak

d MOUNTAIN Lion near ndTney PEAK
Deadwood, July H. Kept in
captive through an entire night
by a ferocious mountain lion,
and saved from a horrible death
only by her singing, was the
terrible experience Of Mrs. John
Underwood, who, with her fam
lily, was camping on the banks
Of Iron creek near Harney peak,
one Of the wildestregions of the
Black Hills.
Mr.. and Mrs. Underwood,
with their three children, came
recently from New York, Mr..
Underwood to look after some
mining interests and the family
to enjoy the novelty of camp
life. Just before sundown Mrs.
Underwood started from camp
alone to meet her husband, who
was coming from the mine.
Not being familiar with the
country she was soon hopelessly
lost. The night falls suddenly
among these mountains, and
just as the last flicker of day
light vanished she was startled
by d frightfnl scream behind
her and at the same moment
was borne to the ground by an.
immense mountain lion.
The fall did not hurt her, but
as the wildeyed animal stood.
over and she realized her prob
able fate, she screamed in ter
ror. The lion lifted his head
at the sound of the echo which
her voice awakened, and as she.
saw that his attention was at
tracted, it came to her mind
that she had read of wild ami
mails being subdued by the
sound ola human voice.
She began to sing, first in a
faltering and uncertain voice,
but afterwards more steadily
and clearly as she found that
she could effectually distract
the beast. Through the chill
night Of the mountains she sang,
now gayly, now desperately, all
the songs she had ever heard,
while the immense cat lay in
apparant content with one huge
paw stretched over her holding
her in a vise-like grip. She had
wandered farther from the beat
en- path than she had realized
and it was not until the day be-
gan to break that Mr.. Under
wood, guided by the sound Of
her voice, found his imprisoned
wife.
A carefully directed shot from
his rifle brought a speedy death
to the lion and Mrs. Underwood
was rescued, thoroughly un-
nerved from her nights experi-
ences but otherwise unframed.
The lion measured eight feet
from tip to tip and weighed not
less than a hundred pounds.
Mr.. and Mrs. Underwood broke
camp the following day and
with their family returned east.
This is the first lion that has
been seen in the southern hills
for years, and the supposition
is that it had become enraged
from hunger, as it is a very un-
usual thing for one Of these cou-
gars to attack a person. Yank-

INTERSTATE COMMERCE CON-
MISSION.

Since the Interstate Commerce Com
mission has been at work on the rail-
road investigation it has turned up an
amazing amount of corruption. 1t
has found that graft permeated the
whole railroad structure of the east
ern seaboard and the middle west and
there is more than a suspicion that
when the roads of the far west are
Investigated they will not prove to be
in much better shape. 1t has been
shown that officials on a big salary
were more than doubling that salary
by illicit means. 1t has been shown
that employees on small salary were
accommodating fortunes. 1t has been
shown that the coal operators of some
sections were making fortunes but that
they paid other fortunes to the railroad
to allow them to make more money out
of the people.
The Bureau of Corporations of the
Department of Commerce and Labor
showed in the same way that the Stan
dard Oil Company was grinding for
tunes out of the consumer and using
the railroads to crush competition.
The Bureau Of Corporations has more
things to report about the oil business
and the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion will have more things to report
about the coal business and some things
about the oil business thrown in. AL
together it is a very rotten situation.
And what is the end of it? Nobody
expects to see the president of rail-
road go to Jail, much as some of them
doubtless deserve it. Nobody expects
to see John D. Rockefeller or Mr..
Archbold or H. H. Rodgers put on
stripes. That Is not the thing to ex-
pect. But there will be clearing of
the moral atmosphere. Publicity, call
it undertaking or call it what you will,
has done and is doing more than fines
and jail sentences could hope to do. 1t
has held up some of the men who did
the wrong and got the money, to public
shame. Where are the heads of the
great insurance companies after the
expose? Dead, dying, mental and
physical wrecks or eXpatriates. Their
wealth does not taste as sweet to them
now as it did when they We're making
it fin the glamor of sanctity. There
may not be many fines and imprison-
ments as the result of all the recent ex-
posures. But there will be lot of
men who if they are not more honest
will at least be more careful. In all
probability the Bureau Of Corporations
and the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion have already accomplished about
as much as they can. They have let in
the light. And in doing this they have
accomplished already a great deal in
the cause of commercial purity. Pub
iicity Publicity! Publicity!

4 Beautiful Home Weddins.

ION Wednesday, June Goth, at high
noon at the home of Nimrod Glotfelty,
"The Glades Farm near Accident, Md.
occurred the most beautiful wedding of
the season when Miss Laura Eva Glot-
felty and Mr.. Lee Cottril were united
in holy wedlock by the Rev. Lister, of
Friendsville, Nd
Miss Gladys Ferguson was maid of
honor and Mr.. H. o. Right was best
man. The bride was beautifully gowned
in white silk and carried a boquet of
brides roses. A gorgeous wedding arch
of laurel, fem and roses was built in
one conner Of the parlor under which
the couple stood during the ceremony
and while the friends congratulated and
wished them happy life. The friends
and family that were present are as
follows:
Mr.. and Mrs. Nimrod Glotfelty, Mr..
and Mrs. H. R. Dewitt, Mr.. Hiram
Cottril and sister, Mr.. Will Glotfelty,
Mr., and Mrs. Savage, Mr.. and Mrs.
Josephus Glotfelty, Rev. and Mrs. Lis
ter, Mrs. Webb Ferguson and daughter
Ruth, Mr.. 0rval Glotfelty,
Among the handsome presents re-
ceived by the bride were a set of fine
linen napkins, cut glass water set, a
dinner set of china, hand painted wa
ter set, and 2 check from her father for
500.
A great display Of rice was the scene
as the bride and groom left the home
for Oakland early in the afternoon on
their way to The groom's home at
VOLTS Summit, W. Va, where a grand
reception was held.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lee Cottril will reside
n Berryburgh, " Va, after July 10th.

PLAYING FAST AND LOOSE.

1t is the policy of small Democrats to
belittle, as much as possible, the
achievements of the present Republican
Administration and Congress in expos
ing and curbing the trusts and other
agencies tinimical to the rights of the
people. These narrow-minded Demo-
Gratis can see little good in the railroad
rate legislation of Congress. They treat
with levity the efforts of the Admins
tration to expose the filthy processes of
the Chicago meat packers, and its eff
forts to inaugurate rigid national in
spection of those establishments. They
pretend to regard as of no value the
story of the arbitrary doings of the
Standard Oil Monopoly in its relentless
course for crushing out competition, as
exposed by the investigation made by
Ny Garfield,
Democrats of the stamp which de-
cries these efforts to protect the masses
OF the people against monopolistic out
RACES evidently hope to play fast and
loose on the subject. That is, they
would gladly welcome a revolt of the
railroads and other combinations against
the Republican party and at the same
time blind the masses of the people to
the fact THAT it is to the Republican
party they must look for such legisla-
ton as will effectually relieve them
from the expressions of trusts and mo-
nopolies. In this way they hope to gain
power in the National Government, and
it will be sorry day for the people of
the United States if they shall succeed
in dong 50

fed milk from tubercUlar cows and one
became tubercular; the others remained
IN excellent condition. Thirty-fve pigs
were given room exposure and of these
two became tubercular, the others re-
manned in excellent condition. Forty
two pigs were given manger exposure
and of these six became tubercular.
Nineteen hogs were fed on the milk
from the eleven cows, consuming about
1921 gallons of milk and not one became
tubercular. The one guinea pig, which
contracted the disease from drinking
milk, was fed on the milk from COW No.
Z. This cow was still alive when the
report was made. She was very weak
and thin and had beed effected with tu-
berculosis for several years. During
the last year her condition was so poor
that it was difficult to understand how
she remainea alive. The positive re-
suits obtained from the several exposure
compare as follows:

Milk feeding, do. ................ .76
Room exposure, do ........... 5.71
Manager exposure, do. 4282
Milk feeding, hogs. .............. 600
1t is never advisable to draw conclu-
sions from single experiments, or set
of experiments, where the results are
so liable to outside influences. Hence
the experimenters in this case very
wisely deferred conclusions but simply
submitted these results to the larger
number which are being worked out
with the hope of solving this one great
question. If any inference may be
drawn from the above figures it would
be that the maximum danger of infec-
ton lies in the exposure which exposes
the victim to germs carried by sputum
of the diseased individual, and the min
mum danger of infection lies in the cor
sumption of milk from diseased animals.
However, it must be remembered that
this is merely an inference and not a
we'll grounded conclusion.

NATIONAL LEAGUE REPUBLICAN
CLUBS.

The National League of Republican
Clubs, in session at Philadelphia, last
week, adopted q series of resolutions
which fairly set forth many of the benef-
icent achievements Of the Republican
party during its long control Of the
National Government. Among these
resolutions are the following, which will
forcibly commend themselves to the
just opinions of the people of this cour-
try:
eve endorse the sentimental William
Mckinley, that the principle of pro-
tective tariff is sacred, but that sched-
ules should be changed when conditions
of industry, commerce and finances de-
mand, and not till then.
eve emphasize the results of the op-
GRAFTON of the Dingley tariff, which is
giving US a surplus of revenue, unpar-
alleled activity in our factories, forests
and mines, profitable prices for products
of our farms, greater bank clearings
and relatively less failures than ever be-
fore, continually larger volume of en-
ployment at higher wages, resulting in
unprecedented consumption of not only
the necessaries, but comforts, convent
ences and Injuries of life, augmented
withal by larger savings and invest
ments than have previously been re-
corded in our history.
eve approve of the action of the
present Congress in carrying out the
recommendations of Presidsnt Roose-
welt by more advanced legislation than
has been given US in a single session
since the days of the Civil War.
