A MURDER MYSTERY.
friends of A. D. Gill Fear He Was
Killed BY Outlaw Gang.

After diligent efforts to find trace of
Abram D. Gill, the we'll known Lam
dusky stockman and rancher, the
Chouteau county authorities and
friends of the missing man are forced
to the conclusion that he met with a
fatal accident on the range, or was
killed by someone connected with the
notorious Curry gang Of outlaws. Mr..
Gill had been threatened time and
again by these desperate men, and
had been advised by his friends not to
expose himself to their murderous de.
signs, but he persisted in maintain
ing his residence at his home ranch
in defiance of the animo,ity shown to-
ward him by a few OF the people Of
that section. He finally concluded,
last fall. to dispose of his business
interests there, aud effected a sale to
the Coburn Cattle company.

New Era in Government.

This great social revolution was but
n precursor to the great political revo-
luton OF 1876, when these colonies re-
VOTED from Britain and established
their independence. That revolution
marked q new era in government. Then
new sanction was given to govern
1nent. For the first time government
was organized on the broad principle
that all the just power of govern
ment is derived from the consent OF
the governed" The peoples divine
right of rule and revolution was es-
tablishcd. Towering over monarchs
and rulers, over parliaments and legis-5
latures, were placed the people, the
SOURCE of all power and the master OF
servants who must obey. The dyna-
mic force OF this doctrine has shaken
to their very foundation most OF the
governments Of the world It has
wrung from reluctant monarchs con-
stitutional government. with legisla-
tive bodies elected by the people. In
Britain it has given the prerogntives
of the Crown to Parliament, reformed
Parliament and made 1t representa-
4 tive Of the people, It has destroyed
the tyranncal doctrine that colonies
were created for exploitation and spoli-
alton. 1t has circled the world with
self-governlng colonies. 1t drove
Spanish power from the western hem
tsphere and dedicated it to liberty and
the people. It has overthrow king
