On the occasion mentioned Beid.
Ter alone had charge of the gold

where two other men would joir

One of them, Frank Orr, he said

Nick" Beidler had arrested in Hell
ena for making bogus gold dust,
and had sent him to jail, from
which he escaped, the jails of that
period being none too trustworthy.
The further circumstance of his
having ten days earlier thrown up
his hands, enabling road agents to
escape with $1,000 he was hired to
protect, did not contribute to his
desirability as an assistant mes
senger.
Beidler's suspicious we're arous-
ed; and on reaching Pleasant Val
ley he announced that he would
ride inside the coach with big
instead of outside with the
driver, as was his custom. Orr, he
said, could ride outside. There
were no passengers, as few persons
cared to take chances when treas
ure was sent.
At the mouth of Beaver canyon,
when the six horses were being
changed at the station, Beidler saw
Nick and Orr whispering together
near the stable. Calling the driver
10 him, he told him, in case of a
1oldup, if he cared for his life, not
to put on the brake, but to lash
he horses into a run, and he,
8eidler, would have his head and
shoulders out of the coach window
IN the drivers side.
From the mouth of Beaver Can
ION to Little Dry Creek, where
most of the holdups occurred, was
hree miles. When they had gone
bout a mile big Nick" asked /;
3eidler, what will you do if you
re halted?"
Beidler replied: 81 am getting
$50 per month to fight to save
reasure, and I will shoot at the
irst thing that crawls."
~ L
Nick suggested that they give up
he gold; go on a half mile, and
hen walk back and capture the
obbers. This brilliant scheme did
lot appeal to Beidler. Instead, he
'ut his head out of the coach win
ow and called to the driver, "Hold
our lines we'll in hand and let
hem rum" The account contin-
es:
"The moon was full and bright
S day. 1t was IL P. m. and we
attled into Little Dry Creek on
good swinging trot and as we got
ito the creek, which was walled
p with rocks and a natural place

George Ives also took a mule o
Beidler's, and claimed he had rid
den it seventy-five miles for
number of days. Beidler told hin
if he ever rode it again he woulC
kill him. This did not end tn,
trouble, nor increase Beidler's Xix.
ing for Gallagher and Ives. The
latter asked Beidler DO you know
who | ann" to which interrogation
Beidler instantly replied, eyes,
think you are a thief from the way
you have acted" And then in true
western fashion, they both went
into a saloon and took a drink,
Beidler paying for the treat.
After the murder of Dillingham;
which was perpetrated in broad
daylight, and in the presence of
witnesses, Jack Gallagher, as de-
putty sheriff, declared the murder
ers acquitted. The murdered man
remained unburied until Beidler
made his coffin and dug his grave.
From this, we infer that "X." had
added to his other trades that of
undertaken.
Meanwhile Beidler was becom-
ing thoroughly acquainted with
the road agents, and they with him,
as the following, from a letter sent
him, indicates:
81. x. Beidler:
1--WE herewith give you notice
that we intend to kill you at the
first opportunity that offers and
will give you no more time to pre-
pare for death than the many men
you have murdered"
(Signed) "Anti-Vigilantes."
There a no doubt on the part
of the writers of this letter as to
what Beidler would do to them, if
he had the opportunity and they
wished him to understand that they
were only too willing to recipro-
cate. That they failed to kill him
was due to his being able to thwart
their plans through provision, or
good craftsmanship.
Beidler gives a thrilling account
in his journal of an instance when
these two characteristics of his
stood him in good stead. He was
as messenger for Wells,
company's express, running
Helena to Salt Lake City, at
time when it was not unusual for
coach to carry three or four
hundred pounds of gold. There
vas always danger of holdups,
With SO much treasure aboard, and
especially while passing through
o%ortneuf Canyon, where the abrupt
urns in the road, and the high
walls of rock which inclosed it,
furnished admirable hiding places
or robbers.

GUMS

Gums are the soft, fIeshy
parts of the jaw which surround
the teeth.
Their purpose is to guide the
food past the teeth, to prevent
infection, to cover the roots of
the teeth and hold them in
place.
Any injury or infection causes
inflammation, recession, tender
ness and bleeding, with loss of
support to the teeth.
When your tooth brush
"shows pink or your mouth has
a bad odor, get Pyradium to
prevent the spread of infection.

By Martha Edgerton Plassmann

I was living in For
wv Benton, | often saw, sit
ting out Of doors near The
hotel, a short thick-set man, sur
rounded by a group of persons
who seemed to be greatly interest
ed in what the little man had tc
say. He was never alone, but al
ways held court in the midst of adj
mirers. There he sat, day after
day, with his hat pushed back on
his round head, and held forth to
his audience, who did some of the
talking, to be sure, but were quite
willing that he should have the
monopoly of the conversation.
After a time I learned that the
little man was no other than John
x. Beidler. with whose name | was
familiar from the days of the Vigil
lantes-a name associated with
many deeds of daring. I no longer
wondered at his being the center
of attraction for other men, and I
wished I could question him re-
garding his part in Kidding the ter
ritory of the bandits who once
ruled it.
Unfortunately it was out of my
power to do SO, and I gained my
knowledge of Beidler's exploits
from his journal, or what I heard
of him in 1868. The Vigilance
committee had no sooner been or
ganized than "X" became a prom
inent figure in the public eye. At
first no one knew whether he could
be relied upon to act with the law
and order forces. But that was not
strange. Many others, good men
and true, were suspected of sym
pathy with the road agents. Sus-
picion then was universal, and CON
tinued to be SO until the test of SER
vice revealed those who could be
trusted.
1t did not take long for the
Vigilantes to discover that they
had no Drawer, no more loyal mem
Der than x. Beidler. The road
agents learned early where to place
him, and they feared him. Like
Alexander, in the old rhyme:
"'Twas not his stature made
him great"
or dreaded by the lawless element,
but his marvellous rapidity of both
thought and action. Some one has
said that no w~esterner is ever de-
on the stage, or elsewhere,
'twho is not quick on the draw"
Beidler certainly was a typical
w~esterner, according to this stand
ard, as he handled a pistol with
speed and dexterity, as the despera-
does had ample proof.
Born on August IA, 1881 in Ian
caster County, Pennsylvania, his
name of Beidler would indicate he
was of German lineage. While in
MS native state, he worked at shoe
making, Recommending, and brick
making, Drifting west, he reached
Kansas, and for a time became a
;aloon-keeper. The lure of Pixies
Peak drew him to Colorado in SO,
where he failed to make a fortune,
md he decided to seek it elsewhere.
With this in view, he came to Alder
1ulch in 1868, soon after its dis
:overy.
Almost at once he came in con-
act with the road agents. He let
ack Gallagher take his mare, with
he proviso that it was to be re-
urned in a half hour. Gallagher
:ept the animal two hours and a
alf. Beidler learned later that
he mare had been borrowed in
rider that Gallagher might ar
for the murder of Deputy |
heriff Dillingham;, the only one
f Plummers deputies who was not
road agent.

sas contenidas en- ell mencionado ar |
ticulo del DR.. Inman, puesto que Sc
ria necesario hacer concentrates mu-
cho mas extensos que los presentes
para tratar las muchas aserciones en-
gafiosas en- las cuales no Sc expresa
toda la verdad y que tanto abun-
dan EN- Ell articulo de que Sc trata.
Ahora bien; en- cuanto a la conclu-
sion del DR.. Inman que, a contar
desde La Conferencia de Santiago, ha
ocurrido una notable recrudescenc1a
en- ell sentimiento antiamericano en- to-
da Ia America latina, 10 tlnico que pro-
cede contestar es que esta es una cues
ti6n de opinion Personalmente estoy
convencido de que 10 que pasa es Ell
teramente 10 contrario Por de con-
tado que es possible topaz aqui y ALA
con un escritor a quien Sc lie antoja
atacar a los Estados Unidos, mas 81
SO me suplcara que hiciese una breve
relaci6n de la verdadera situacion,
diria que. mi juicio, las relaciones
entire los Gobiernos de las Repubhcas
americanas jamas fueron mas salts
factorias que en- la actuaidad, que
ell sentimiento general de las naciones
de la America latina hacia Ell pueblo
de los Estados Unidos Sc distingue por
una confanza mayor que La que jamas
ha existido. Es un hecho evidente que
la rersonalidad del Secretario de Es-
tado Hughes ha inspirado confianza en-
todo ell Continente Americana. Ac-
tualmente existe una creencia gene
raj sumamente esparcida de que Ell Go
bierno americana Sc interesa personal
mente en- Ell progreso Y prosperidad
de todas las naciones situadas al sur
de los Estados Unidos.
Comprendo perfectamente que Ell
concepto que Sc forma de la actitud
de una nacion hacia otra no Sc pres
ia a una precision mathematical, por
cuanto depende en- gran manera, de
la impression producida y de la op1-
nion formada Mas 81 desearia lamar
la atenci6n de una manera especial
al hecho de que cuando I'M ciudadano |
Sc empefia en- criticar la politica exte-
rior de su propio Gobierno, sobre to-
do cuando tai critica ha de circular
extensamente en- todos los paises inte-
resados, uno de sus primeros deberes
es-tanto desde Ell punto de vista del
patriotismo como de su propia honra
-estar absolutamente seguro de que
las relaciones que hace Sc basan en-
hechos mas bien que en- supos1ciones.
Ahora bien; la clase de crftica irSes- /
ponsable de la cual ell referido articulo
es un ejemplo, frusta y anula sus pro- !,
pios designios. va que propende a ex- !
traviar mas bien que ilustrar la opi- !
MON plbIca en- los Estados Unidos. |
Ell ilnico efecto q. semejante critica pro-
duce es suministrarles materia a aque- |
las muy contadas personals que en- la
America latina Sc empehan en- excitar
un sentimiento antiamericano.
Estoy SECURE de que Ell DR.. Inman
