The Mar, Who Rode To Conemaugh. ! NOT A BIT WORRIED. Inte the town of Conemaugh. Striking the people’s souis with awe, Dashei a ride, aflame and pale. Never alighting to te!! his tale, Sitting bis big bay horse astride, **Run for your lives to the hiils!”’ he cried ‘*Bup. to the hilis'’’ wae what he said As he waved his hand and dashed slong **Ruan for your lives to the hille!’’ he cride. Sparring his horse whose reeking side "Was flecked with foam as red as flame, Whither he goes or whither he came Nobody knows. They see his horse Plunging on his frantic course, Veire distended and nestrile wide, Fired and frensied at such a ride. Nobody knows the rider’s name— Dead forever to earthly fame. **Ran to the hills! to the hills!’’ be cried; “*Ran for your lives to the mountain side!’’ | Gov. Francis Thinks he Can Staad +r. tain Attacks- Jefferson City, Mo. June 26.—- Gov. Francis was to.day called upon by the Republic correspondent and asked what he had to sayconcerning the attacks made upon him by a cer- tain afternoon newspaper of St. Lou- is in connection with the grain in- spection bill. The governor express- ed himself as uninformed as to what the paper had said, and a copy of the Post-Dispatch was thereupon pro- cured for him. After reading por- tions of the editorial page, the gov- ernor said he was loth to make any statement in the matter, but for the information of those who might be misled by its warfare he consented to be interviewed. “Well, what do you think of it?” asked the correspondent. “I think it a pity,” said the gov- ernor, “ihat the paper has so small a circulation. I heartily wish one of these could be placed in the hands of every citizen of the state. I observe that it is devoted almost exclusively to me and my official acts. Ishould say, from reading this number, that the paper is the special advocate of bucket-shops and the practice of fictitious dealings in futures, commonly called grain gam- bling, in which there is no intention to receive the grain bought or sold. All that the legislature has done is to make it a crime for any person in the state to make pretended purchas- es or sales of grain or other com- modities for future delivery without any intention to receive the same if bought or deliver the same if sold. If that kind of a law can abolish the Merchants’ Exchange in St. Louis or any other board of trade in the state it ought to be abolished. If the members Merchants’ Exchange are guilty of such practices they vi- olate the rules of the body, and low- er it in the deservedly high estimate of the people of this state which it has held inthe past, and which I trust it will continue to hold in the future. Even, however, if the object of the bill was, as this shect claims it to be, to abolish the business of the Mer- chants’ Exchange, and it was the will of the people of the state so to do, I should be recreant tothe trust reposed in me, if, on account of my personal interest. I should endeavor to thwart that will. The entire pleading in this personal journal is based upon the supposition that I was elected governor for the pur- pose of protecting a special interest with which I have to some extent been identified. The animus of the publication is made the more apparent,” the gov- ernor continued, after having com- pared the black extracts from the bill in the Post-Dispatch with the original bill, which was furnished him for that purpose, “when I tell you that its copy is not a true copy of thelaw. The editor ofthis paper is a fellow named Dillon, who is ag- grieved at me because I declined to speak to him some years ago in a company of gentlemen. He is too well known by the people of St. Louis, and, like his paper, is too lit- tle known outside thereof, for the governor of this state tonotice. The columns of the daily press of St. Louis for 15 years past contain ac- counts of his life and conduct which should deter such aman, if he had any sense of shame, from expressing any kind of opinion of his neighbor, much less from attempting to regu- late society and criticise laws passed by his betters. I am not conscious of having done anything to forfeit the good will of the people of St. Louis, . whose faith in my sincerity and hon- esty of purpose Iam confident can- not be shaken by any such scurrilous publications as these. I do not de- sire that this paper should approve of my acts, official or otherwise. During my public career it has it- self assumed the credit of whatever I have done that it did not feel could In this case ‘*Stop him he’s mad! juet look at him go’ *Tain’t safe to let him ride so.’’ ‘*He thinks to scare us,’’ said one with a laugh ‘But Conemaugh folks don’t ewallow ne chafl. ‘Tain’t nothing I’ bet, but the same old leak Inthe dam above South Fork creek.’” Blind to their danger, callous to dread, They laugh as he left them and dashed ahead, **Ran for your lives to the hills!’’ Lashing his horse im his desperate ride. Down through the vailey the rider passed, Shouting, and spurring his borse on fast; But not so fast did the rider go As the raging. roaring mighty flow Of the millions feet and millions more Of the water whose fary he fled before. On he went, and on it came, The flood itself avery flame, Of surging, swirling. seething tide, Mountains high and torrents wide. God alone might measure the force Ofthe Conemaugh flood in its V-shaped course. Behind him were baried under the flood Conemaugh town and all who stood Jeering there at the man who cried, **Run for your lives to the mountain side!’’ On he sped in his fierce, wild ride. «*Run to the hills! to the hills!’’ he cried, Nearer, nearer came the roar Horse and rider fled before Dashing along the valley ridge, They came at last to the railroad bridge. The big horse stood, the rider cried, ‘*Run for your lives to the mountain side!’’ Then plunged across, but not before The mighty, merciless, mountain roar Struck the bridge and swept it away Like a bit ef straw or a wisp of hay. But over and under and through that tide The voice of the unknown rider cried **Run to the hills! to the hiile!’’ It eried— “*Run for your lives to the mountain side!”’ INDIANS RESIST ARREST. The Sheriff of a Montana County Hav- ing Much Trouble. Helena, Mont.. June 25.-—News was received here this morning from Ariee, the principal tow on the Flat- head reservation, that Sheriff High- bow and the form Missonla county who went to arrest Indian murderers had lad a battle with the Indians who refused to give up the men wanted. Two Indians are re- ported to have been killed. Agent Ronan has called on the officer at Fort posse Missoula for troops, but that official is waiting orders from Washington. In the meantime a posse of well known citizens from Missounla, headed by the may- or, has been organized and is on his way to the aid of the sheriff. The civil officers are determined to ar- as the In- dians are determined not to give them up serious trouble is feared. Sheriff Heyfron with a posse of ninety men left Missonla at noon for the Flathead reservation to make a second attempt to arrest the Indian murderers. Orders from the war department authorizing the calling out of the troops from Fort Missonla and at the request of Indian Agent Ronan two companies were dispatch- ed on a special train at 1 o'clock. It is thought the presence of the troops will restore order and permit the ar- rests to be made. rest the murderers and The murder of a woman does not seem to be considered of much con- sequence up in Nebraska.
