THE JOURNAL COMPANY. T. H. B. McCAlN, President. J. A. GKEKNB. Bectetarr,

^VTHK Arkansas Populists declare in their platform that "the Democrats have done more harm to the country in

sixteen months than it suffered in twenty years prior to their accession to power." Which shows that the Populists even are sometimes right.

CRAWFORDSVILLE is credited with twenty-three saloons, which are kept open eighteen hours a day for six days in the week and even longer unless watched like hawks by the officers or the law. We also have a total of nine churches which are opened on an average of six hours a week.

THE Cincinnati Commercial Gazette asks: "If coal should be free for the benefit of the people, why not sugar? Every one uses sugar, not one in twenty uses coal, or is affected by a duty on it. It is a Ioaring farce to talk of "free raw material" for the benefit of the people and in the same breath advocate a duty on sugar."

SPEAKING of the difference in men when they are interviewed the Indianapolis Sun says: "Lew Wallace, the author, never objects to being interviewed at any time day or night. lie is very polite to the reportorial fraternity, among whom he has a legion of friends. He never has much to say. but utters that little in a hit-from-the-shoulder style."

THE Lafayette Call makes this pointed observation: "Now that Tippecanoe county wheat fields are yielding thirty-five and forty bushels to the acre, would be a most opportune time for the local Democracy to redeem that promise made to our farmers that if they would vote for Cleveland, and ho should be elected, their wheat would bring a dollar a bushel!"

TIIRKE saloons have been closed in Indianapolis, not aby the Prohibitionists, nor by local option, nor by moral suasion, but by the vigorous and honest enforcement of the somewhat lax Indiana liquor laws. These saloons were well established and on the most prominent streets but without the Sunday and after 11 o'clock trade they lost money for the proprietors, who volun tarilj' closed up.

•THE United States courts are now operating 152 railroads owning 43,000 miles of roads, and representing an aggregate capital of 82,500.000,000. Since the beginning of the year receivers have been appointed for twen-ty-three companies. In the last six months eighteen roads have been sold. If the labor agitators have any regard for poverty they ought to give railway property a rest.

THE Frankfort Crescent doubtless had in its mind's eye the Indianapolis Sentinel and the Crafordsville Argus-Newt when it penned the following: "No more ludicrous phase of journalism was ever presented to the American public than the fulsome praise which Senator Hill now receives from the many Democratic journals which never had a kind word to say for the distinguished New^Vorkerv^__

LAST year there were 43,000,000 pounds of raw cotton imported to the -United States for the use ofour various cotton mills. The importations have been doubling annually for several years. It will not be long till the South will be clamoring for a tariff on raw cotton, and the cry of free raw material, like the erstwhile cry for the free breakfast table, will be heard no

In reply to the Democratic plea, which just now is its sole stock in trade, and that is that the Democratic party is not responsible for the misery and poverty of the times as the Republican tariff is still in force, the Chicago Jnter-Ocean gives this pointed illustration:: jt would be puerile to reply seriously to this more than puerile plea. Suppose that a man owns a house that ah a mere piece of mason work is worth but 810,000, but which in consequence of its asphalt pavement, its select neighborhood, its frontage on a cable road, or other accidents of circumstance. is worth 820,000, and suppose that a city council has been elected pledged to tear up the asphalt and to cause the street to revert to the condi­

tion

of a dirt road, or to revoke the charter of the cable company, or to remove the fortunate circumstances that enhance its value. Would it not be «kbsurd to answer the complaint of the lc»ing owner by saying: Oh, the old ,XhaU ordinance stUl is in force-Vie cattle charter «tUl survives. It will be as nmch as six weeks before the pavement or iTOCto are tarn up. Your property caniwthave depreciated by reason of a mere coupled with power to execute U.

The main cause for these frightful "times, thegreat losses in business, and the utter lack of confidence, is the fact that the Democnwy proposed to tear up (he protect!*® asph*lt and return to the old dirt road of 'ree trade.

DKBS' speech on the Pullman boycott will only serve to confirm the general opinion that he is the most featherheaded of all the labor leaders who have come and gone in the last twenty years.

For hopes and dreams that left my open doorShall 1, who hold the past in fee, repine? Nayl there are those who never quaffed life's

That were the nnblest fate one might deplore. To sit alone and dream at set of sun. When all the world is vagtie with coming night— To hear old voices whisper, sweet aud low. And see dear faces steal back one by one And thrill anew to each long past delight— Shall 1 compiain, who still this bliss may kuow?

out if she's going to lead with Rollins." Yte victis! Far out in the glorious park country in the heart of the Centennial Stale a little band of blue ooats sent to succor a periled agent is making desperate stand against fearful odds. Less than 200 men has the exalted wisdom of the department sent forth through the wilderness to find and, if need be, fight its way through five times its weight in well armed foe*. The officers and men have no special quarrel with those Indiana, nor the Indians with them. Only two winters before, when those same Indians were sick and starving, and their lying go betweens, the bureau employees, would give them neither food nor justice, a small band made their way to the railway and were fed on soldier food and their wrongs righted by soldier justice. But another snarl has come now, and this time the bureau people are in a pickle, and the army—over between two fires at least, and thankful when it isn't six—is ordered to send a little force and I go out there and help the agent maintain his authority. The very night before the column reaches the borders of the reservation the leading ohiefs come in camp to interview the officers, shake hands, beg tobacco and try on their clothes, then go back to their braves and laugh as they tell theTe are only a handful, and plan the morrow's ambuscade and massacre. V® victis! There are women and children am fig the garrisons .ilong the Union Pacific whose hearts have little room for thoughts of germans in the horror of this morning's tidings. But Sibley is miles and miles away, and, as Mrs. Wheeler says, aren't you glad it wasn't ours?

Out at the fort there is a different scene. The morning journals and the clicking telegraph send a thrill throughout the whole command. The train has barely whistled out of sight when the ringing notes of officers' call resound through the quadrangle and over the broader drill ground beyond. Wondering, but prompt, the staid captains and eager subalterns come hurrying to headquarters, and the band, that had come forth and takon its station on the parade, all ready for guard mount, goes quickly back, while the men gather in big squads along the shaded row of without creaking, as their quarters and watch the rapid assembly at the office. And there old Chester, with kindling eyes, readB to! the silent company the brief official order. Aye, though it be miles and miles away, fast as steam and wheel can take it, the good old regiment in all its! sturdy strength goes forth to join the rescue of tho imprisoned comrades far in tho Colorado Rockies. "Have your entire command in readiuesH for immediate field service in the department of the Platte. Special train will be there to take you by noon at latest" And though many a man has lost friend and comrade in the tragedy that calls them forth, and though many a brow clouds for the moment with the bitter news of such useless sacrifice, every eye brightens, every muscle seems to brace, every nerve and pulse to throb and thrill with the glorious excitement of quick assembly and coming aotion. Aye, we are miles and miles away. We leave the dear old post, with homes and firesides, wives, children and sweethearts, all to the care of tho few whom sickness or old wounds or advancing years render unfit for hard, sharp marching, and, thank God, we'll be there to take a hand and help those gallant fellows out of their "corral" or to havo one good blow at the cowardly hounds who lured and lied to them!

How tho "assembly" rings on the morning air! How quick they spring to the ranks, those eager bearded faces and trim blue clad forms I How buoyant and brisk even the elders seem as the captains speed over to their oomppny quarters and the quick, stirring orders are given: "Field kits all the cooked rations you have on hand overooat, blanket, extra socks and underolothes every cartridge you've got haversack and canteen and nothing else. Now got ready—lively!" How irrepressible is the cheer that goes up! How we pity the swells of the light battery who have to stay! How wistful those fellows look, and how eagerly they throng abont the barracks, yearning to go, and, since that is denied, praying to be of use in some way! Small wonder is it that all the bustle and excitement penetrates the portals of Mr. Jerrold's darkened quarters, and tho shutters are thrown open and his bandaged head oomes forth. "What is it, Harris?" he demands of alight batteryman who is hurrying past "Orders for Colorado, sir. The regiment goes by special train. Major Thornton's command's been massacred, and there's a big fight ahead." "My God! Here, stop one moment! Run over to Company and see if you can find my servant or Merriok or somebody. If not, yon come back quick. I want to send a note to Captain Armitage."

I can take it, sir. We're not going.

dies or fluttering skips, up tho grassy

"quad" and over among thu rosebushes of Alice Remviok's garden. Over on the other side of the narrow, old fashioned frontier fort ihe men wore bustling about, aud their exultant, eager voices rang out on tho morning air. All was life Mid animation, and even in Jerrold's selfish soul there rose responsive echo to the soldiery spirit that seemed to pervado tho whole command. It was their first summons to active field duty with prospective battle slnoe he had joined, aud witli all his shortcomings as a "duty" officer in garrison and his many frailties of character, Jerrold was not the man to lurk in the rear when there was danger ahead. It dawned on him with sudden and crushing foroe that now it lay in the power of his enemies to do him vital injury that he could be held hero at the post like a suspected felon, a mark for every finger, a target for every tongue, while every other officer of his regiment was hurrying with his men to take hip knightly share in the coming onset. It was intolerable, shameful. He paced the floor of his little parlor in nervous misery, over and anon gazing from the window for sight of his captain. It was to him he had writ to u, urging that he be permitted a few moments' talk. "This is 110 time for a personal misunderstanding," he wrote. "I must see you at once. I can clear away the doubts, can explain my action but, for heaven's sake, intercede for me with Captain Chester that I may go with the command.''

As luck would have it, Armitage was with Chester at the office when the letter was handed in. He opened it, gave a whistle of surprise and simply held it forth to the temporary commander. "Read that," he said.

Chester frowned, but took the note and looked it curiously over. "I havo no patience with the man

"What- enn I do to lie released from arrest*" swers, and of course you'll havo to apologize to Captain Chester for your last night's language." "That, of course, though you will admit it looked like spying. Now let mo ask you, Did ho tell you who tho lady was?" "No I told him." "How did you know?" "By intuition and my knowledge of previous circumstances." "Wo have no time to disouss it I make no attempt to conceal it now, but I ask that, on your honor, neither you nor he reveal it." "And continue to let the garrison believe that you were in Miss Renwiok's room that ghastly night?" asked Armitage dryly.

Jerrold flushed: "I have denied that, and I would have proved my alibi could I havo done so without betraying a woman's secret- Mast. I tell?" "So far as lam concerned, Mr. Jerrold," said Armitage, with oold and relentless meaning, "you not only must tell—you must prove—both that night's

now," he said. "Of course, after what doings aud Saturday night's, both that I saw last night, I begin to understand tho nature of his defense, but we don't want any such man iu the regiment after this. What's tho use of taking him with us?" "That isn't the point," said Armitage. "Now or never, possibly, is tho time to clear up this mystery. Of oourse Mayuard will be up to join us by the first traiu, aud what won't it be worth to nim to havo positive proof that all his fears were unfounded?" "Even if it wasn't Jerrold, there is still the fact that I saw a man clambering out of her window. How is that to be cleared up?" said Chester gloomily. "That may come later and won't be 6uch a bugbear as you think. If you are not worried into a morbid condition over all this trouble, you would not look so seriously upon a thing which I regard as a piece of mere night prowling, with a possible spico of romance." "What romance, I'd like to know-?" "Never mind that now. I'm playing detective for the time being. Let me see Jerrold for yon and find out what ho has to offer. Then you can decide. Are you willing? All right! But remember this while I think of it. You admit that tho light you saw on the wall Sunday night was exactly like that which you saw tho night of your adventure, and that the shadows were thrown in tho same way. You thought that

and how you obtainod that photo graph." "My God! In one case it is woman's uamo. In tho other I have promised on honor not to reveal it." "That ends it then. You remain here in close arrest, and tho charges against yon will be pushed to tho bitter end. I will write thorn this verv hour."

CHAPTER XVI.

At 10 o'clock that morning, shortly after a smiling interview with the ladies of Fort Sibley, in which, with infinite spirit and the most perfect self control, Miss Beaubien had informed them that she had promised to lead with Mr. Jerrold, and since ho was in duress she would lead with no one, and sent them off wondering and greatly excited, there came running up to the carriage a telegraph messenger boy, who handed her a dispatch. "I was going up to the avenue, mum," he explained, "but I seen you here.''

Nina's face paled as she tore it open aud read tho curt lines: 'Come to me here. Your help needed instantly.''

She sprang from tho carriage. "Tell mother I have gone over to see some fort friends—not to wait, she called to the coachman, well knowing ho would understand that she meant the ladies

"Yes, and, though time is precious and I cannot show you, you may take my word for it Y7o must be off at noon, and both of us have much to do, but there may be no other chance to talk, and before you leave this post I want you to realize her utter innoceuca'' "I want to, Armitage. "I know you do, so look hero. We assume that the same man paid the night visit both here and at Hablon, and that he wanted to see the same person— if ho did not como to steal do we not?" "Yes." "We know that at Sablon it was Mrs. Maynard he sought mid called. The oolonel says so." "Yes." "Presumably, then, it was she—not her daughter—ho had some reasons for wanting to see hero at Sibley. What is more, if he wanted to seo Miss Renwick, there was nothing to prevent his going right into her window?" "Nothing." "Well, I believe I oan prove ho didn't. On the contrary, that he went around by the roof of the porch to the oolonel's room and tried there, but found it risky on account of the blinds, and that finally he entered the hall window—what might be called neutral ground. The painters had been at work there, as you said, two days befo&e, ai.d the paint on the slats was not quite dry. The blinds and sills were the only things they had touched up on that front, it seoms, and nothing on the sides. Now, on tho fresh paint of the oolonel's slats are tho new imprints of masculine thumb and fingers, and on tho sill of the hall window is a footprint that I know to be other than Jerrold's." "Why?" 'Because he doesn't own such a thing as this track was made with, and I don't know a man in this command who does. It was the handiwork of the

He had said that, though nothing could drag from him a word that would compromise her, she might be called upon to stand 'twixt him and ruin, and now perhaps the hour had come. She could free, exonerate, glorify him, and in doing so claim him for her own. Who. after this, oould stand 'twixt her and him? Ho loved hor, though he had been oold, and she? Had he bidden her bow her dusky head to earth and kiss the print of his heel she would have obeyed could she but feci sure that har reward would be a simple touch of his hand, an assurance that no other woman could find a moment's place in his love. Verily, he had been doing desperate wooing in the long winter, for tho very depths of her nature were all athrob with love for him. And now he could no longer plead that poverty withheld his offer of his hand. She would soon bo mistress of her own littlo fortune, and at her mother's death of an independence. Go to him she would, and on wings of the wind, and go she did. The cab released her at tho gate to her home and went back with a double faro that set the driver to thinking. Sho sped through the h'ouso nnd out tho rear doors, much to tho amaze of cook and others who wore in consultation in tho kitchen. Sho flow down a winding flight of stairs to tho level bolow, and her fairy feet went tripping over the pavement of a plebeian street.

A quick turn, and sho was at a little second rate stable, whose proprietor knew her and started from his olmir. 'What's wrong today, Miss Nina?" "I want the roan mare and light buggy again—quick as you can. Your own price at the old terms, Mr. Graves—sileuco.''

He nodded, called to a subordinate and iu five minutes handed hor into the frail vehicle. An impatient chirrup and flap of the reins, and the roau shot forth into the dusty road, leaving old Graves shaking his head at the door. "I've known hor ever since sho was weaned," ho mutterod, "and she's a wild bird, if ever there was one, but she's never been the like o' this till last month."

And tho roan mare was covered with foam and sweat when Nina Beaubien drove into tho bustling fort, barely an hour after her receipt of Jerrold's telegram. A few officers were gathered in front of herdquarters, and there were curious looks from face to face as she was recognized. Mr. Rollins was on tho walk, giving some instructions to a sergeant of his company, and never saw her until the buggy reined up close behind him, and turning suddenly he met her face to face* as she sprang lightly to the ground. Tho young follow reddened to his eyes and would have recoiled, but she was miatreAs of tho situation. She wall Knew qjtio had but to

Only two ways to run a business—a right and a wrong way—years of success, of progress, convinces us that this is the right way. Every department manager has his orders, every salesman aud saleslady will be alert, every price is a trade winner.

"Make Hay While the Sun Shines," Is a maxim to be applied with peculiar force to the dry goods business. But "hay making" time is passed— now is Clearing Out time—and for the balance of the season 15 per cent, 20 per cent, 25 per cent and even 50 per eent will drop from the prices of every article in all our departments. Our patrons will buy cheaply. Our stock will be reduced. The object desired— turning merchandise into cash—will be accomplished.
