BARE FOOT BOY
N MOWERS PATH
FRANCIS KENT HAS BOTH FEET
CUT, ONE NEARLY SEVERED.
eoYs FATHER ON THE MOWER


OF the Path OF the Mower But Not
Of the Knife Blades, son OF Sam
Kent, jr., Painfully Injured.
Little Francis Kent, three years old
this fall standing behind high bunch
OF weeds in front of mower driven
by the little fellows father, Sam
Kent, jr.. was cut down by the sharp
iron blades. Not until the machine
struck the little boy did Mr.. Kent see
his son. In an instant he had jerked
the horses back and sliced his son.
The little boys left foot was nearly
severed at the ankle with both bones
cut. The right foot was cut three
quarters OF the way around but the
bones remained intact.
Both of the boys feet will probably
be saved unless blood poisoning sets
In. This is a fortunate feature of
most unfortunate accident. Although
the mower blades cut through both
bones in the left foot leaving only a
little piece of flesh intact, this little
piece held the large artery in the back
of the foot, fact which made the
doctors believe that they can save the
foot.
Had Been Sent Away.
The accident occurred in the gar
den near the home Of Sam Kent, jr.
at Kent's Siding west of Norfolk late
Thursday afternoon. Little Francis
Kent had been sent from the garden
by his father who was cutting weeds
with a big mower. The garden had
been nearly cleared of weeds and the
father was on the last round when the
little son went out to meet him. I'm
Willingly the child took position to
one side of the horses but In the path
of the knife blades. He was behind
cluster of weeds and was not seen
by his father. The little fellow was
bare footed.
Take to Battle Creek.
The child after the accident was
hurried to DR.. Tanners office in Battle
Creek. DR.. p. III. Salter was called from
Norfolk. Little Francis was on the
operating table for two hours. The
cut bones were replaced and every
effort made to save the foot, which
had been virtually cut Off.
Little Francis Kent has a brother
older than himself and baby sister
He is a grandson of Mr.. and Mrs
Sam Kent, who recently celebrated
their golden wedding anniversary. TO
day the boy was in some pain but
seemed 10 be doing nicely.

victory was gathered in 10 to O.
Burke sent in Grantz but Spencer
found him for six hits, netting five

brilliant field work is the more remark,
able because the game was in the

Miner Has
Hard Luck

RENO, Oct. 2S.-To tramp all the
way from Colorado TO Nevada in
search of a job and after securing a
position in a mine to be blown up
after working only one shift and part
of another is pretty hard luck but
that is what happend to w. R. A.
Davis, a union miner about q years
of age. Davis is now in Reno pen
niless and physically disabled. Davis
states that after being unable to find
a job in Colorado, he tramped to Ne,
vada and entered the camp of Chat
ey. At Chafey he was given a posi-
tion and worked an entire shift with
out accident. The second shift he
drove a drill into a missed shot and
was blown from the shaft. He was
wounded and bruised from the ex-
piosion and rendered unconscious,
but soon recovered his senses and
was taken to the cabin of a friend.
1nere he was given surgical atten-
tion and later sent to Reno by his
friends that he might secure better
care.

THE BIG RALLY FRIDAY JACkMAN GETS LIFE
GEO. BARTLETT----ORGANIZED LABOR

ton: who has been the friend OF
labor?"
Has it been the discontented, trou-
ble-breeding faction whose activity
has resulted in the destruction OF
confidence and the creation of sus-
picion among working men, or has it
been such men as George Bartlett,
who declare that no man planning
violence or destruction of property
or life, nor any blatant demagogue,
shall destroy a great industry in this
state and bring hunger and wana
to the families of law-abiding and
industrious laboring men?
George Bartlett has proved himself
true friend of labor. A truer or
better one does not live in this or in
any other state in the union.
The principle of the Police bill,
which is supported by every right
thinking men whose hear beats in
unison with the best interests OF Ne
vada, is in the interest of law-abid-
ing, industrious labor. 1t was never
intended to interfere with labor's

Upon the other hand the real enc
mics of organized labor are the non.
workers, whose endeavor is to foment
discomfort, and the political dema-
gogues who seek to mislead labor,
that they may accomplish some per
sonal end.
John Mitchell, while President of
the United Mine Workers of America,
said: Il would rather a strike be
lost than that it be won by violence
John Mitchell was one of the great
labor leaders in this country. He
knew that no real victory for labor
could be won by violence, and that
when resort % violence is had, it is
next to impossible to win strike for
any cause no matter how just it may
be.
Every intelligent, law-abiding and
hard working member OF organized
labor, who loves his family and his
state, who wants to prosper his per-
sonal affairs and to see others pros
per, should ask himself this ques-

pie of this state, both within and
without the ranks of organized Ia

Bartlett, as a candidate whose claim

majority on November Sd, because
Nevada regards those who hold up
her mantle OF righteousness and has

1t has been and is being sought
to array against George A. Bartlett
Democratic candidate for Congress
the forces of organized labor. This
attempt has been futile and has been
rendered more so by the declaration
Of Samuel Gompers, President of the
American Federation of Labor, that
George A. Bartlett is regarded by the
Legislative Committee of that body
as a true friend through his efforts
in labors behalf in the halls of Con-
gress.
1t is an insult to the thousands OF
members of that great body OF or
ganized labor in Nevada TO believe
that they can be misled by misrep-
and faisehood into the
belief that George Bartlett is their
enemy.
No class of citizens S more bene-
fitted by the enforcement of law and
order, without fear or favor, than
the honest, industrious, law-abiding
members of organized labor.

Trading is
Prophesied

A report is being circulated that
considerable trading OF candidates
on election day is being arranged
and also that a number OF accusa-
tions and charges will be preferred
against democratic nominees the day
before election when it will be to
late TO refute the same.
The idea is to get the votes OF
those who are as yet undecided. ii
Is an old game and the voter should
beware of the proposition. Any al
legation or charges should be made
previous to election and give the
accused chance to defend himself.
Such politics should carry but little
weight with the voter and all are
warned to use their best Judgment
in these matters. The democratic
party all over the Union is united
this year in common cause.-the
greatest good for the greatest num-
ber-and if they stand together and
follow under the leadership OF Will
liam Jennings Bryan and the plat
form on which he stands they VIII
be victorious at the polls on next
Tuesday, November Sd.
This is a democratic year, Mr.. Vot'
er and all should stand up in the
fight for victory.

UHvIvI
ARRIVES HERE TODAY TO BEGIN
SERVING SENTENCE
HAD CLOSE ESCAPE FROM THE
HANGMAN'S MOOSE.

Albert T. Jackman, convicted of
the murder of a messenger boy by
the name of Moritz was sentenced to
life in the State Prison at Carson
City by Judge Langan at Goldfield on
Monday and officers having in charge
the prisoner arrived in this city this
morning and placed him in the State
institution to begin the serving of his
sentence for his crime.
While the jury was sworn to secre-
cy at the same time it h;., been an
nounced that had they to do it over
again the verdict would have been
murder in the first degree and SEN
tence OF death.
Attorneys for the convicted man
will appeal to the Supreme Court OF
the State for a new trial and have
been allowed thirty days in which
to file their plea of exceptions. In
the first trial Jackman was convict
ed of murder in the first degree and
sentenced to death but the Supreme
Court granted him another trial.
When Jackman stood up for SEN
tence on Monday the courtroom was
filled with people and during the re-
marks Of Judge Langan the court
said:
While this duty is very unpleasant,
to me yet the majesty Of the law
must be upheld. Your attorneys

everything possible to secure your
release. Their efforts are RESPONSE
BILE that you are not before me here
today for a death senetnce Young
man, you took a human life, and the
taking Of it was, in my judgment, ac-
cording to the evidence, done cruelty
and inhumanly. With the first shot
you inflicted mortal wound On John
Moritz, and while your Unfortunate
victim was writhing in pain and
agony and to make sure of your
dastardly purposes, you again intiict-
ed upon him second mortal wound
Every feature of this shooting evil
denced an abandoned and malignent
heart. When l say that l say about
all | can say. 1t is unnecessary to
prolong by words before pronouncing
sentence upon you, for it has been
my earnest endeavor while on the
bench to save defendants convicted
OF crime unnecessary humiliation.
But you, Albert T. Jackman, were
not merciful, and you certainly should
not receive any from me. The judg-
ment and sentence of this court is
that you be imprisoned in the state
prison at Carson City, Nevada, for
life"
