1IKWAUT. OK OYKlt COXFIIlKXCt. The Indianapolis J»unuil this morning lias an excellent article on the pending elections iu Indiana. It appeals to the voters of the State to rally to the polls to make their protest against that ••culminating atrocity." tlie Wilson bill, and that the influence of the result will do much to defeat this iniquitous measure. "There is." says the Joumutl. "one danger anil that is over confidence. Republicans may be so conlipent of victory and so elated by the victories elsewhere that they may not deem it necessary to poll a full vote. They will make a great mistake if they fail to put forth the same effort now that tliey would if the vote were close." These are timely words for the Republicans of Crau fordsville. lieware of the still hunt campaign of the Democrat.-. They may surprise you by the fullness of their vote on May 1. Listen not to the honeyed words of Democratic candidates when they say that they have no sympathy with the Wilson bill or the pension policy of their party in Congress. Let every Republican and every dissatisfied Democrat tile his protest by his ballot."
Tiik trend of sentiment in Congress is shown in the fact that but seven pension wills have been reported to the House, and not all of these favorably, while 26: Southern war claims, once rejected by a commission, and involving millions, have been reported favorably and placed on the calendar. Not a pension hating paper in the country has had a word to say against these trumped war claims,,..: Verily, the South is in the saddle.

ortkr once said in a
speech in this city that tlie Republican party might be compared to the front wheels of a wagon and the Democratic party to the hind wheels. It is true to-day even when the Democrats are in power. Witness the adoption of the lieed quorum counting rule.
TllKltK is an excellent chance for Republicans to elect a lot of school trustees in this county judging from the excellent nominations so far made. Our advice to the Republicans of the various townships who have not yet nominated is to follow the example of those that have.
Dox't think of scratching your ticket at the city election. This is the time for the Republicans to stand together. The Democrats are making a desperate fight on two or three of the Republican candidates and it behooves the Republicans to dash their hopes to the earth.
Giumks has had eleven years' experience on the 'police force and has a record of more arrests made than any other man on the force iu a given length of time. liayless is a nice fellow but never had any experience in police work.
I is conceded that the Republican ticket in Cra wfordsvillc will be elected, but Republicans should not be content with a small majority. They should make it as big as possible.
Tiik attitude of many Democrats just now seems to be that they are in favor of the ilson bill, but opposed to its passage.

Who missed them?" she asked, when she had time to understand what tli meant. "The police, when they searched.'' answered Gorringe.
The use of the word was another sharp stab. "llow did the—how did they know the papers were there?" "They went over all the papers, and these were missing." "Yes, but who missed them? Who know that they were ever in Mr. Coode's possession, and on that night particularly?" "I did. 1 gave them myself into Mr. Coode's hands."
The girl thought she could see a glimpse of hope in this. "Hut you have not told the—anyone of this, have you? You are Tom's friend and mine," she spoke, eagerly, and a light flashed in her eyes as she touched his hand. "No, I have told no one yet," was his answer.
Mary took his hand and pressed it, and then carried it to her lips, and looked at him with a light of sweet gratitude. "You are good indeed—a true friend —a staunch friend. It is not such bad news if only you and I know it." She spoke with a smile so wistful and sad that it touched his heart. He tried to respond so as to reassure her but he could not. He had what he knew would be much worse news than any yet told.
She was quick to read his manner and then sought to buoy up the hope she had expressed. "You will not tell anyone, will you?" she asked, almost pleading to him. "You will promise me this?" "I will promise, if it be possible and." he added in a low warning voice, "if it be of any use." "What do you mean? Ah, there is more behind. What is it? Please, what is the worse? Tell me the worst," she cried, in a voice through which the pain and dread were audible. "The police have found a witness who saw Tom go into the mill at about ten o'clock on Friday night," answered the man, in slow, distinct tones.
She tried bravely to keep up an appearance of indifference, even to Reuben Gorringe, friend though he said was was. "What does that prove?" she asked, glancing up at him with almost as much fear as if he had been a judge. "It shows that he was in the mill that night—on the last that Mr. Coode was seen alive—almost at the hour when he was thought to have been— to have died," he said, checking hinij self and changing the expression he was going to use. "But does anyone suppose that if Tom Roylance went to the mill to—to do any such act as—as this, he would have gone publicly for all the world to see? People, when they go to do wrong, don't carry a lamp to show others what they are doing, I suppose, do they?" She spoke fast, trying to feel as she spoke. "I don't say he went publicly," answered the man. "Mary, iny lass," he said, suddenly, taking her hand and clasping it firmly. "It's no use struggling against this. Heaven knows, I'd spare you the knowledge of it all, If I could. Tom was seen to break into the mill from the back—round by Watercourse lane you know the spot. The police know it all now: and as if that were not enough, the traces of the window having been forced have been seen easily enough, while close by the window inside the miU this was found."
As he spoke he took out of his pocket a thin neck scarf, with Tom's name on it.
Mary recognized it instantly. She herself had given it to him. "Who found that?" she asked, just in a whisper. "1 did," said Gorringe. "I have not shown it to anyone yet," he added, as if anticipating her next question.
The girl buried her face in her hands again, profoundly moved by what had been told her too full of distress to speak. Then she rose and held out her hand. "I cannot yet understand all thatj'ou have told me. I am bewildered. Forgive me if I ask you to leave me alone now—unless, that is," with sudden wistful pain and fear in her voice, unless there is anything else to tell me." "No, Mary, I have nothing more to tell you. I have brought enough bad news for one visit. Rut I have something I should like to say before I go. You know where Tom is. Go to him." "What do you mean?" asked Mary, in sudden alarm, showing the man by the expression on her face that he had guessed aright. "I thought you would be sure to know. I wiil not ask you. If you do not know, never mind if you do, then think of it. Go to him. ask him to tell you frankly what all this means, to give you the fullest information of every movement of his on that night, and to say whether he can at once face an inquiry. If he can let him come back at once: if he cannot, then we, his friends here, can help him to a place of safety until the time comes when all can be cleared."
When she was alone Mary gave herself up, without restraint, to the storm of feeling that swept over her. The terror, inspired by the news which Reuben Gorringe had brought, was intensified by .the air of reluctance with which he had told it, and by the infinite kindness and friendliness with which he had spoken at the end, and had offered his advice that she should go and question her lover.
Hut to go and question him on all the points of doubt and suspicion which Reuben Gorringe had suggested would seem like accusing him and doubting him a,t the same time. Did she doubt him? She told herself over anil over again that he could not have done anything so atrocious but one. after another the accusing facts which Gorringe had toll! her rose up and refused to be explained away.
Thus it was with fear, and yet hope, that she looked forward to the In teariew with Tom on the morrow.

more hopeful view of the facls~wliich overnight had seemed so black and so threatening.
Her faith in her lover had strengthened, and although she could not see her way definitely to meet the charges, her confidence In Tom's ability to do that was increased.
If the police were, as Reuben Gorringe had said, really beginning to suspect Tom, he must come back and give the lie to the accusation. At the same time it was possible for innocent men to need time in which to prove their innocence and it was therefore necessary that she should see Tom without at the same time doing anything that would be likely to hasten any steps being taken against him.
She looked out, therefore, at the Walkden Bridge station, as well as at Presburn, where she had to change carriages, to see that she was not followed and this act of Itself made her somewhat nervous and flurried.
At Manchester, being quite unused to the rush and crowd of a big station, the girl felt bewildered, and gazed about her in every direction, trying to catch a glimpse of her lover.
Her heart gave a great leap as she caught sight of him. They clasped hands and stood still in silence for fully a minute and the girl's heart was sad to see the change which even three days had wrought in him. He looked haggard, and worn, and worried while there was a dejected, anxious look of suffering in his face that filled her with infinite pain.
At first she longed to let her pity and sympathy find vent in words but then her woman's wit checked her and she forced all the expression of alarm and concern out of her face and smiled. "I am so glad to see you, Tom," she said. "So glad, dear. I was feeling quite lost in this great crowd. But now I feel safe and contented when my hand rests again on your arm."
Then she pressed closely to his side. "Let usget out of this lot of pushing folks and go where we can be by ourselves and have one of our long talks and thus she drew him out of the crowd and away from the station. "I don't know where to go to, lass," he said, after they had gone some distance. "I have an idea," she answered. "Let us get on the tram and go to the Botanical gardens."
On the tramcar she talked and laughed about what they saw in the streets as they passed, so that the man might overcome the reserve and confusion which she could see were disturbing him and when they reached the gardens the change in his manner told her that he was somewhat more at ease.
They walked arm in arm through some of the walks in the place, until they came to a seat in a quiet sidewalk, and there they sat down. Then her forced courage gave way a little and she did not know how to begin. But the man had a question which he had been longing to ask her from the moment of their meeting and with a return of the anxious worried look to his face, he turned his head this way and that, as if to make sure that they were not overheard, and said in a low, nervous voice: "Is it true, Mary?" "Is what true?" "What I read in th,3 newspapers yesterday about —about Mr. Coode— that he was—that he was killed in the mill?" (To Be Continued.)
