[ Rom the St. Iis Globe-Democral. ] No sooner ha.d gold been dis covered on Salmon River, at Daar Lodge and along Qrasshopper Creek, out in Montana, in tho spring of 1862, than those and other gold bearing localities wore at once overrun with a crowd of gold hunters from C.ifornia, Ocegon and other W3storn Territories, and by parties from the E istern States. In duj courso of time the mines west of the mount:ains sent in their quota of men, among whom were min my outlaws and desperadoes, in. cluding~ such men as Henry Plum mer, chief of the road-agent band, Clatrley lRaevos, Moore and Skinner; and no soon had these worthies got the lay of the country than they commenced operations, Around the men just uauned gathered all the desperate, dishonest an4 dis loyal ele:nent, and these, quickly organizing themselves into a baud, with captain, lieutenants, secretary, road agents and outriders, became the terror of the country. Well arinod and well r.onnted, the road agents stoppel. coacles carrying passengers and valuable freight, and throve on booty wrung from passengers by persuasion of arms. In March, 1883, joore and lReeves, in a drunken spree, killk a French man, an Indian chief, a lame boy and a papoose, and wounded sev eral other parties, by protgiscuously firing into a tapeo, whic4 so arous ed the citizens of B .uocl that a public meet.ing was held, and Pluxtmer, Moore and )$eevea were tried before 4 jiry of citizens. JFlumtner was acquitted, but Moore and Reeves were banished, and the leniency of this verdict gave the road agents and their associated rougha an undisputed supren icy for a time. Plummer got elected sheriff of Bannock and of Beaver )ead coi nty, and ljsed b is of%ce to protect his gang. Robbery after robbery and murder after murder occurred in rapid, monotonous sue - cession. Finally a prominent and estimable citlzon nan ed Lloyd agr.uder was robbed and killed while returning from Virginia City to Lewiston, and this stirred up the citizens of B.mnnock, Virginia And Nevada to form a vigilance eoemittee. In a week or two the raniiatiot s of k.b ).eag ue of safety and order e,tended all over the Territory, and on the 14th of January, 1864, the power of the banad was broken by the summary execution of five of the chief villains at Virginia City. Of these tho most notorious was James A. Slade. The Judge of the People's Court in Virginia City at the time of Sladet's hanging was Alex. Davis, for.spr.ly a partner in the law iArm .of Davis, Thoroughmau Ar, Warren, Sof this city, and, understanding that he was well posted in regard te Slade's tragic end, a Glo1,e-.Der,o.. cr'at reporter asked him about his iacquaintance with Slade. "I heard of 8iade," Judge Davis said, "long before I went out to M5on.tana, in 1863. le was Super intesdent of Hlolliday's Oyed.and Expiess, having supplanted one Jules ,in that pomiti, and between Slade a.nd Jules ther~e was bit.ter war. I got to Montana in 1868. At that time Slade was off down the Missouri River. He got in very late that winter, some time in DeA ,ecember, I think. The Vigilance B Committee had ou~t organized by the the time he got Ikapk, .and he joined it, and was one of the lead. ing men, and very active in aiding its operations.B ut he soon com-. menced getting drunk, going inte -saloons, slapping men in the face ,and.committing other insults and ,outrages. ,T;e had always a band .of his men around him, so that if any one resentinag an insult got the .better of hi:n, ,theore were othere t: behind to shoot him down. A corn mon feat sof Slade's when on a spree was what he ~called 'takcing the town:' When he started on such expeditions It was to uncoimmon ting for the store-keepers to close their stqres and pyt on thei igts, so much was'~iIStaanh fwar Thd Vigilane Oommlttae got L. talking about this thing, and they threatened to clean Slade out, or take some action in regard to hie conduct, Mater Brookle, Paris S. Pfouts and myself were apologistq for Slade, and whenever the people threatened to hang him we would, plead for him. We did that several tiies, and for three months they did't hang him. One day he caine into town and got on a big spree, during which he got into a fuse with a nla naned Fairweather, one of the first discoverers of Alder Gulch, where Virginia City was situated. Fairweather was a miner and a hard working man, but he had got drunk, and Slade had drawn his men around him and there was trouble of some kind, which ended in the officers of the law arresting Fairweather and bringing him into the People's COurt, of which I was Judge, Slade came into the court, too, and commenced talking to Fairweather, tolling him he would not submit to tha officers of the law, &c. The aherif-a man named Fox-took out the writ to read, when Fairweather grabbed the writ out of the officer's hands -Slade standing by him, whoopigg and hallooing with all his right---and then, shaking himself free, drew his navy revolver with his right band. Slado said, #'Go in, Bill i I'm with you," and what with the noise and the clicking of revolver locks, there was quite a sensation ill the court-room, I assure you. I got down off the bench and told Slade I had done a great de:l for him, but that if this thing was to go on he might just as well make the issue right then and there. At this Slade quieted down, said he was my friend, that he had always liked me, but didn't like this follow Fox, the sheriff. I told him that Fairweather would have to submit to the law which the people had made, wheregpon Slade and his crowd marched. There was by this time quite 4 conmotion among the miners all along the gulch. Couriers ran down to Nevada "ity, a mile and a half off, and gave the alarm, which soon becar4e general. I was in a store talking to a man named Locke, who had had some goods stolen, when S)ade came in with a cooked Der, ringer, caught me by the collar an'l aaid, "You are my prisoner." I s.&ici "All right, Slade," and kept on talk ing to Locke. Slade then gave me a little jerk and said, j'$y -- mean what I say. You are my pris oner. They are going to hang me, and I am going to hold you as e hostage." I saw the cocked Der., ringer in his hand, and I put my hand up to his arm, and as I did so a man by the name of Bill Runt stepped up-he had two revolvers in his hands-and he said to Slade, "You let 4.in go," and, turning to me said, '"Go where you please; if he touches you I'll kill him." I told him I didn't think Slade was going to hurt me. Slade then asked Hunt, "What have you got to do with it t" to which Hunt replied that he had nothing to do wito it, but that I was a representative of the people tbere, and in addition to that I was ' his friend, and he didn't intend to see me hurt. With that the two men got into conversation. Hunt said, "Slade, if I had been sheriff this morning the Srst thing I'd have done when I got up would have been to arrest you, and if I'd done it, 1 shiould, .perhaps, have- saved' your life. The way you are going on now yoiu will be hanged before sunset." Slade says, -"By --- we'll elect you sherifft" Hunt said, No, he didn't desire to be Sheriff;s he didn't desire to do anything but what he had 4onse. Just then 8hle coremenced apologising-he was just that bind of man-.saying he was only joking with me, didn't in tend harming me, but that he lik.e4 me very much. Hunt said, "All right," and the two finally started out to get something to drink. Slade soon came book, and again apologized for what he had done, said he didn't intend anything 'by it, and asked mny pardog. I told him it was granted, apd oommendd p leading with .bin to get on his horse and gp home. WIe promtised to do it, We started ont as if be .was going' home' In .e short ~tinie he was agailn in front of the store oul horoeback and called me' outa He 'wanted to asbake hands. with me bem, fore ho star.ted, aud to know. if 4 forgave him for ,his wid ,frea~k.
