SATURDAY, AUGUST 4, 1894.

EX-GOVERNOR IRA J. CHASF. has been called to the pastorate of the Christian church at Valparaiso.

THE St. Louis

Globe-Dcniwrut says

that Bill is the kind of a Democrat who likes to have fun by going in swimming with the Republicans.

FREE TRAIE is not always free trade. It sometimes means a tariff of 45 per cent, on sugar, 80 per cent, on rice, and large protection to coal and iron

MATT DAUGHERTT has been nominated for Congress by the Republicans of the Sixth Nebraska district. It is needless to explain that this is not our Mat.

WHEN Mr. Brookshire comes home to his "beloved" with a protective tariff of 4A per cent on sugar, what will he have to tell them about the 'glories of the "free breakfast table?"

IT will be observed that the Republican# are not saying a word or doing a thing to delay tariff legislation. The "senseless chatter" business is monopolized by the Democrats.

THE rank and file of the Democracy are standing with gaping mouths and wondering what kind of dose is going to be poked down their throats by the Conference Committee at Washington.

MOST farmers will be likely to remember that the Republican party run the government for thirty odd years consecutively, and in all this long period,wheat was seldom under a dollar a bushel.

THE Democratic party is great when it comes to legislating for foreign countries. The Nova Scotia coal miners are to be developed and our mines closed. And this is to give the poor man cheap coal and the miner of this country lower wages.

THE Covington convention which recently re-nominated Mr. Brookshire, resolved in favor of the free coinage of silver on the old ratio of 16 to 1. But what has Mr. Brookshire or his party done in Congress to secure the free coinage of silver? Nothing but to repeal the Sherman silver law.

BE it remembered that the Senators from Louisiana are not clamoring for a tariff on sugar "for revenue only," but for the "protection" of the sugar raisers of their State and protection is the chief object. If it was not that the Louisiana sugar makers demand "protection," a sugar schedule could be agreed on in five minutes.

HERE is what Abraham Lincoln said of the law: "Let reverence of law be breathed by every mother to the lisping babe that prattles in her lap: let it be taught in the schools, seminaries and colleges let its be written in primers, spelling books and almanacs: let it be preached from pulpits, and proclaimed in legislative halls, and enforced in courts of justice in short, let it become the political religion of the Nation."-

DURING the entire period of President Harrison's administration, there were {published, almost invariably monthly statements of large sums paid on the public debt. Has any one seen such a statement under the present administration? The only statements now made are a deficit in the treasury the continual decrease of the gold re serve and the issuing of bonds to keep up the treasifry. Such is Democratic financiering.

DEMOCRATIC speakers used to amuse their audiences by telling them that when a man bought a dollar's worth of goods upon Which there was a tariff of 30 per cent, he bought 70 cents worth of goods and 30 cents worth of "protection." It will be well for Democrats to remember that when they buy a dollar's worth of sugar, 55 cents will be lor sugar and 45 cents for Democratic protection to Southern sugar planters.

THE Democratic Congressional con--vention at Covington, in their platform say that the McKinley law is still in force. If they mean by this that it is yet on the statute book, the assertion Is strictly true. But every business man and laborer in the country is painfully aware that its beneficent operation has been entirely suspended for the time being, by Democratic threat* to overthrow it. The tore threat to repeal it has brought disaster to the whole eonntry.

IT is that the presenthard times are due to protection'. But the people -vein remember that we have always had the highest degree of prosperity just when we have had the highest] tariff and there was no threat of repealing it. For years after the war, when we had the highest tariff* ever known,*.all branches of bnetoeea «*wW*ed. How can our

[CONTINUED.] I

Without Deing awe to analyze ms conduct, the regiment was satisfied that it had been selfish and contemptible, and that was enough to warrant giving him the cold shoulder. Ho was quick to see and take the hint and in bitter distress of mind to withdraw himself from their companionship. He had heart with neglect or drive her hoped and expected that his eagerness with jealousy inside of a year.

to go with them on the wild and sudden campaign would reinstate him in their good graces, but it failed utterly. "Any man would seek that," was tho verdict of the informal council held by the officers. "He would have been a poltroon if he hadn't sought to go, lint while he isn't a poltroon ho has done a contemptible thing." And so it stood. Rollins had out him dead, refused bis hand and denied him a chance to explain. "Tell him he can't explain," was the savage reply he sent by the adjutant, who consented to carry Jen-old's message in order that he might have fair play. "He knows, without explanation, the wrong he has done to more than one. I won't have anything to do with him."

Others avoided him and only coldly qpoke to him when speech was neces•ary. Chester treated him with marked aversion the colonel would not look at him only Armitage—his captain—had

a deoent word for him at any time, and I even he was stern and colli. The most envied and careless of the entire com

Bitting alone under the trees, he had

taken a sheet of paper from his pocket iI]ar" onl-Jit: case and was writing by the light of the rising moon. One letter was short and easily written, for, with a few words, he bad brought it to a close, then folded and in a bold and vigor'ons hand addressed it The other was far longer, I and over this one, thinking deeply, erasing some words and pondering much over others, he spent a long hour. It! was nearly midnight, and ho was chilled

to the heart when he stiffly rose and

took his way among the blanketed groups to the campfire, around which BO many of his wearied comrades were sleeping the sleep of the tired soldier. Here he tore to fragments and scattered in the embers some notes and letters that were in his pockets. They blazed up brightly, and by the glare he stood one moment studying young Rollins' smooth and -placid features. Then he looked around on the unconscious circle

of bronzed and bearded faces. There

ai,ls}y,er"

wero many tvpes of soldier there—men I footsteps. One of them sits up and peers who had led "brigades through the great! front,gazing earnestly at the war and gone back to the humble bars

of the lino officer at its close men who had led fierce charges against the swarming Indians in the rough old days of the first pr.drie railways men who had won distinction and honorable mention in hard and trying frontier service men who had their faults and foibles and weaknesses like other men and were aggressive or compliant, strong willed or yielding, overbearing or meek, as are their brethren in other walks of lii'e men who were simple in heart, single in purpose and ambition, diverse in characteristics, but unanimous in one trait—no meanness could live among them—and Jerrold's heart sank within him, colder, lower, stonier than before, as he looked from face to face and cast up mentally the sum of each man's character.

His hospitality had been boundless, his bounty lavish one and all they had eaten of his loaf and drunk of his cup, but was there among them one who could say of him, 'He is generous, and I stand his friend?" Was there one of them, one of theirs, for whom he hail ever denied himself a pleasure, great or small? Ho looked at poor old Gray, with his wrinkled, anxious face, and thought of his distress of mind. Only a few thousands—not three years' pay—had the veteran scraped and saved and stored away for his little girl, whose heart was aching with its flrst^oruel sorrow— his work, his undoing, his cursed, selfish greed for adulation, his rootless love of lova The morrow's battle, if it came, might leave her orphaned and alone, and, poor as it was, a father's pitying sympathy could not be her help with the coming year. Would Gray mourn him if the fortune of war made him the victim? Would any one of those averted faoes look with pity and regret upon his stiffening form? Would there be any one on earth to ^from his death would be a Borrow but Nina? Would it even be a blow to her? She loved him wildly, he knew that, but would sho were she to dream the truth? He knew her nature well. He knew how quickly such burning love could turn to fiercest hate when convinced that the object was utterly untrue. Ho had said nothing to her of the photograph, nothing at all of Alice, except to protest time and again that his attentions to her were solely to win the good will of the colonel's family and of the colonel himself, so that he might be proof against the machinations of his foes. And yet had he not that very night on whioh he crossed the stream and let her peril her name and honor for one stolen interview—had he not gone to her exultant weloome with a traitorous knowledge gnawing at his hsvtt Tbf»t vezy night, before, thqr

parted tho.oo!oi\trs floor, linn ho not. lied to Alice Reuwiok, had he not denied Hie story of his devotion to Miss Beitulmm. and was not his pr,utir 'il eye watchiin un^erly the beautiful dark face for one sign that tho news was welcome and so precipitate tho avowal trembling on his lips that it. was her he madly loved—not Nina?| Though she hurriedly bade him good night, though slio was unprepared lor any such aunouiicemcut, ho well kin that Alice Ren-wick's heart fluttered at, the earnestness of his manner, and that ho had indicated far more than ho had sai'- out, the regiment is tramping Its way,

Fear, not love, had drawn him to fnij

Nina Beaubien that night, and hope

had centered on her more beautiful rival when tho discoveries of the night involved him in the first trembling symptoms of the downfall to come. And he was to have spent tho morning with hor, tho woman ro whom he had lied in word, whilo she to whom he had lied in word ami deed was going from him, not to return until tho german, and even then he planned treaohery. He meant to lead with Alice Renwiok and claim that it must be with tho colonel's daughter because the ladies of the garrison were the givers. Then he knew Nina would not come at all and possibly might quarrel with him on that ground. What could have been an easier solution of his troublous predicament? She would break their secret engagement he would refuse all reconciliation and le free to devote himself to Alice. But all these grave complications had arisen.' Alice would not come. Nina wrote demanding that he should lead with her and that he should meet her at St. Croix, and then came the crash. Ho owed his safety to her self sacrifice and now must give up all hope of Alice Renwick. He had accepted tho I announcement of their engagement. Ho oould" not do less after all that had huopened and the painful scene at their parting. And yet would it not be a I blessing to her if he were killed? Even now in his self abnegation and misery he did not fully realize how mean he was—how mean ha seemed to others.

He resented in his heart what Sloat had said of liim but the day before, little caring whether ho heard it or not: "It would be a mercy to that poor girl if Jerrold were killed. He will break her mad

But

the regiment seemed to agree with! Sloat. Ana so in all that little band of comrades he could call no man friend. One after another ho looked upon the uncoil scions faces, eold and averted in tho obJiviou of sleep, but not more cold, not more distrustful, than when he had vainly sought among them one relenting glance in tho eariy moonlight that battie eve iu bivouac. He throw his arms I upward, shook his head, with hopeless gesture, then buried his face i« the sleeves of his rough campaign overcoat and strode blindly ^mi theif midst

E irly in the morning, an hour before daybreak, the shivering outpost., crouching in a hollow to tho southward, catch I sight of two dim figures shooting suddenly up over a distant ridge—horsemen, they know at a glance—and these two come loping down tho moonlit trail over which two nights before had inarched the rescue, over which in an hour the regiment itself must boon the move. Old

mand, the Adonis,'the beau, the crack] .'I? i"!d shot, the graceful leader in all garrison gayecies, the beautiful dancer, rider, tennis player, the adored of so many sentimental women at Sibley, poor Jerjold had found his level, and his proud and sensitive though selfish heart was breaking.

i,ar1ly refrain from bursting into song, but although at "route step" the fact that Indian scouts have already been sighted scurrying from blul? to

bluff is sufficient, to warn all hands to bo silent and alert. Wilton, with his company, is on tho dangerous flank and guards it well. Armitage, with Company B, covers tho advance, and his men are strung out in long skirmish lino across the trail wherever tho ground Is sufficiently open to admit of deployuieut. Where it is not, they spring ahead and explore every point where Indian may lurk and render ambuscade of the main column impossible. With Armitage is McLeod, the cavalry sergeant who made tho night ride with I the scout who bore the dispatches. The I scout has galloped on toward the railway with news of the rescue the sergeant I guides the infantry re-enforcement

Observant men have noted that Armitage and (he sergeant- have had a vast deal to say to each other during tho chill hours of the early morn. Others have noted that at the first brief halt the captain rode back, called Colonel I Maynard to one side and spoke to him in low tones. The colonel was seen to start with astonishment. Then he said a few words to his second in command and rode forward with Armitage to join the advance. When the regiment moved or. again and the head of column hove in sight of tho skirmishers, they saw that the colonel, Armitage and tho sergeant of cavalry were riding sido by side, and that the officers were paying

The field officers, of course, were mounted, but every lino officer marcher] his men, except that threo horses had been picked up at the railway and impressed by the quartermaster in case of need, and these were assigned to the captains who happened to command tho skirmishers and flankers.

Bnt no man had the fr in test idea what manner of story that tall sergeant was telling. It would have been interest to every soldier in the command, but to no one so much so as to tho two who were his absorbed listeners. Armitage, before their early march, had frankly and briefly set -before him his suspicions as to the case and the troublo in which Miss Renwick was involved. No time was to be lost. Any moment might find them plunged in fierce battle, and who could foretell the results, who could say what might happen to prevent this her vindication ever

tall figure standing easily there in the „. ,. rrn •, prise at the sight of the sergeant seated flickering light Then ho hails in low i- S. tones: "That yon, Mr. Jerrold? What is tho matter?"

And the tall figure faces promptly toward the hailing voice. The spurred heels como together with a click, the rrauutleted hand rises in soldierly salute to tho broad brim of the scouting hat, and a deep voice answers respectfully: "It is not Mr. Jerrold, sir. It is Sergeant McLeod, th cavalry, just in with dispatches."

Armitage springs to liis feet, sheds his shell of blankets and steps forth into the glade, with his eyes fixed eagerly on the shadowy form in front. He peers under the broad brim, as though striving to see the eyes and features of the tall dragoon. "Did you get there iu time?" he asks, half wondering whether that was really the question uppermost in his mind.

"In time to savo tho survivors, sir, bnt no attack will be made until the infantry get there." "Were you not at Sibley last month?" asks the captain quickly. "Ves, sir, with the competitors." "You went back before your regimental team, did you not?" "I— No, sir I went back with them." "You were relieved from duty at Sibley and ordered back lxiforo them, were you not?"

Even iu the pallid light Armitage could see the hesitation, the flurry of surpriso and distress in the sergeant's face "Don't fear to toll me, man. I would rather hear it than any news you could give mo. I would rather know you were not Sergeant McLeod than any fact you could telL Speak low, man, but tell me here and now.

sido by side with tho colonel and in con fidential converse with him. There was a quaint sly twinkle in Maynard's eyes as he greeted his old friend. 'Chester," said he, 'I want you to be bettor acquainted with my stepson, Mr. Renwick. Ho has an apology to make to you."

The tall soldier had risen tho instant he caught sight of the newcomer, and even at the half playful tone of the colonel would relax in no degree his solclierly sense of the proprieties Ho stood erect and held his hand at tho salute, only very slowly lowering it to take the one so frankly extended him by the captain, who, however, was grave and quiet. "I havo suiJpccted as muchsinco daybreak," he said, "and no man is gladder to know it is you than I am." "You would havo known it before, sir, had I had the faintest idea of the danger in which my foolliiirdiness had involved my sister. The colonel has told you of my story. I have told him and Captain Armitage what lod to my mad freak at Sibley, and whilo I havo much to make amends for I want to apologize for the blow I gave yon that night on the terrace. I was far more scared than yon were, sir. "I think we can afford to forgive him, Chester. He knocked us both out," said the colonel.

Chester bowed gravely. "That was the easiest part of the affair to forgive," ho said, "and it is hardly for me, I presume, to bo the only one to blame the sergeant for tho trouble that has involved us all, especially your household, colonel."
