This forenoon the editor of the INDEP

scrape at Elburz last night, little think
ing of what Deputy Sheriff Harris and
Jailer Gilmore had in store for him.
After concluding the inquiries. Joe
and Walter. the deputy and iailer.
extended II pressing invitation to us to
visit the Jail. After some parley be-
tween them as to which one should
have the honor of escorting us through
the Jail, it was finally decided that Joe
should be Il escort. Joe took his
pistol from his pocket, Walter unlocked
the iron doors and Joe and the editor
stepped into the Jail and Jailer Elmore
ratified the keys and locked the doors.
As the deputy and his victim were
walking around the cells, they were
met by the officer of the Kangaroo court
and placed under arrest. They were
then hurried into the presence of Judge
Carey, Il long termer from Wells. With
the dignity that would grace Il court
under more favorable circumstances.
Judge Carey commanded the prisoners mt
the bar to sit down. The deputy sheriff
interposed Il demurrer to this and the
prisoners were allowed to stand. Read
the complaint, Mr.. District Attorney"
said Judge Carey and Elmer Fulton,
held to appear before the grand jury
on the charge of forgery, began reading
the rules of the Jail. As he concluded
the reading of the rule providing a
penalty for anyone breaking into Jail
without the consent of the inmates.
Judge Carey said: That is enough
and turning To us said: You are
charged with breaking into Jail, what
is your plcaI' As we were tryrng to
tell him that we were the innocent
victim of Il job put up on us by the
deputy sheriff and jailcr, he broke in
with I'VE find you guilty and fine you

up sufficient money to pay the fine as
we had no desire to serve out the
alternative sentence imposed by the
court upon those. who can't pay their
fines. After searching all our pockets.
we dug up 81 cents, all the money we
had, and passed it to the court. The
judge closed his paw over our hard
earned coin and ordered US discharged
from custody. He was more merciful
with Joe and let him off with so cents.

May Cause Complications

There is trouble in the southland in
legal matters which seems to cause
anxiety iii many quarters. Ii appears,
80 the story goes. that Mark Avcrill.
the newly elected District Judge Of
Nyc county, will appear before tho
Judges of the Supreme Court when
they sit as Il Board of Canvasscrs on
the forthcoming Monday and demand
that his election as District Judge of
Nyc county be declared. Immediately
thereafter he will demand from tho
Governor Il certificate of election and
commission to take effect immediately.
The commission now held by Judge
OiBricn. reads that he shall hold Office
until the first Monday in January. 1909,
but Avcrill desires to take the office ut
once. Should this bn done it would
cause many complications in the south
crn district. During the disputed time
many important decisions must he
rendered and some claim that the
Interests are trying 10 place Avcrill
in the iudgcShip before his time in the
hope Of receiving favorable decisions.
II is not believed that tho commission
will b. granted 10 Avcrin Enterprise.

GOOD Tor Old Lander

The new regime which will take
charge of the affairs of the county the
first Of January will find the financial
condition of the county III Il much bet
ter condition than that which confront
ed their predecessors Il few years ago.
The railroad bonds have all been taken
up. That financial burden of 500, 900
with many more thousands in interest,
80 willingly assumed by the people of
Lander county for the purpose of OBJ
tanning better transportation facilities
has been wiped out.
Ten years ago when Henry Dyer
went into the office of Recorder and
Auditor, there were Sii, 10000 of these
bonds outstanding. The final dollar
WAS paid OH this debt last September.
In 1901, the county was on - script
basis and to do a cash business it was
necessary for the county to issue bonds
in the amount of S27, 800. 90.
At the present time this bonded in,
d]chtcdncss has been reduced to $40, 900.
| From the first installmcnt Of the taxes
of this year there will be available fUI
the redemption fund about : 5000. 900
which added to the amount already il
that fund, $l3, 800. 90 will make money
enough in sight to wipe out this deb
during next year.
The second tax installmcnt next yea,
should more than he ample to take NJ
these bonds and the new officials vii
have the pleasure of making the finu
transactions that will clear Landc
county of debt.
The above record is all the NOR,
creditablc and Indicative of the incrcas
ing prosperity of the county, when i
is remembered that the Dwycr murdc
trial cost the county something owe
$l2. 900. 90, to say nothing of other cost.

The Cause OF Powder Plant Explosions

and the dangers incident to the in
dustry, Popular Mechanics for january
i'll an illustrated article says:
The most interesting part of a dvna-
mite plant is the nitrator building, and
i'll it occur fully - per rent of the cx-
plosiOns which make the business so
dangerous. The %nitrator, in which the
nitroglyccrino is made. consists of a
large lcad-lincd tank containing coils
through which cold water is circulated,
and a mechanical stirrcr which insurcs
i'm immediate mixing of the charge.
g The cause of SO many cxplO-
siOns i'll the n~itrator building is the
partial decomposition of the charge in
the nitratOr or separator. The charge
becomes heated as the decomposition
starts, and if the condition continues
for any length of time it results in an
explosion. which wrecks the building
and usually kills the two men i'll charge.
To guard as much as possible against
this danger. an immense tank. which
stands directly under the vibrator and
separator, is kept full of water. If the
temperature rises and is apparently
getting beyond control the entire charge

Running a NeMspaper

The editor of the Columbus Mont
Tri. County News evidently has had
some experience with persons who try
to run II newspaper to their own liking.
Every community has its quota of per-
sons who imagine themselves capable of
debating the policy of IA newspaper,
and Red Lodge does not prove an OK
ccp;ion to the rule, says the Montana
Rcpublica Pickett. This class is Il
nuisance, and because of the good nature
of an editor are oftimcs tolerated. Re.

Carson's Mean Man

That Carson City has u young man
with very little principle and practic-
ally no sense of honor or honesty WIS
demonstrated yesterday when IL of
the inmates of the State Orphan Asylum
dropped two half-dollar pieces OH the
sidewalk and saw this certain young
mar pick then mp, pocket them and
hurry away, despite the pleading of the
little girl and friends.
Carson City also has Il grown up man
with very little principle and good will
in his make up for when his attention
was called TO the theft by the little girl
he grufiy stated that ''he had nothing
to do with t." aud with anything but Il
kind look at the weeping child, con-
tinued OH his way.
Yesterday one of the little girls of the
State Orphanage received Il dollar
grcenback through the mails from Il
relative. Superintendent Joseph gave
her two half dollar pieces and granted
her request that she he allowed TO buy
what she desired with the money. Ac-
companicd by two other girls she came
mp town and when in front of the
Emporium dropped the two pieces of
money. The young man i'll question who
was passing the girls stopped to the side
walk, gathered up the dollar and on
tinucd on his way. An appeal to return
the money WAS lost on this young man
and the same success vas recorded
when the little child asked Il passing
resident to aid her in getting the boy to
return her money.
The young man who took the dollar
of that orphan is Il thief. pure and
simple and,the man who would pass
up the fearful plea of Il child is even
worse.
We are sorry to state that Carson City
harbors an u~nprinciplcd member of the
male SEX who plcascS to call himself Il
''mun" and also that W. have Il young
man who will deliberately steal Il
dollar from Il little orphan girl
Appeal.
If the officers of Carson can find the
young man who swiped that dollar,
they should arrest him and See that he
is punished. If that cannot h. done.
the Appeal should publish his naIu,, if
it knows it. so that the press of the
state can hold him up 10 public scorr"
