BENJAMIN IttMiERS. Rep.

THE NEWS said editorially yesterday that, the liquor element should lie kept out oi politics. So long as the law sanctions this business and it is conducted according to the requirements of the law, THK NEWS has no attack to make upon it. We take the ground however that the liquor ioiluence has gained too great a control of our local politics and it is imperative that it should be checked. We believe all fair minded, sensible business men will agree with ns on this point, We simply take the ground that it is not for the best interest of the community that its a Hairs should be administered by the liquor selling element. We called attention yesterday to the fact that every ward in the city but one was represented by a saloon k«seper, Home of them by more than one, at the Democratic nom inating convention to be held last night for the township election, The result of this is seen in the ticket above, four of whom are or have been saloon keepers, Peker, Wildy, Ehrenhardt and Morri son, in other words just half of the ticket, The Hepublican ticket is headed by a saloon keeper, W. B, Sherburne. He sold out his business a short time ago expecting a gaugorship but being disappointed took the next thing that of fered. He was a popular railroad man and may make a good trustee, Peker, the present incumbent has made an efficient officer, the paint is simply this that we have reached a stage where the saloon is the training school for the politician Wildy has made a satisfactory justice of the peace but he went into office from behind the bar, Morrison has been in this business until within a lew months Ehrenhardt is bartender in his son's saloon, If we are confronted with this state of affairs in our township ticket what may w«*«pect of the city ticket? Men who have been in this business with all its influences and affiliations cannot avoid showing it a leniency and favor whenever it happen! to be in their ottlclal power. If it is the sentiment of the community that this is not best for the general welfare, then they must take such action as will prevent it at the spring elections.

We have become appallingly familiar with mortality In all its forms, the railroad wrecks, the mine disaster*, fires, floods, produce a daily carnival of death. This is reported, enlarged upon, described in all its details, until we become so accustomed to it that it loses its solemnity, its sacredness and its terror. Instead of something to be feared it presents the appearance of relief and rest to the overworked and the unhappy. They willingly fly to ills they know not of rather than longer bear those they have to endure. Each suicide is fully pictured in the newspapers with many imaginary embellishments and those who have been longing for some relief from real or fancied troubles find here a suggestion. They will add one more to the long list. What does it matter whether they end existence at once or wait for the process of the long and lingering years? They have lost the old faith that He alone who gave should take away, and, regarding their life as belonging to themselves, sometimes with care and deliberation, sometimes with rash and sudden impulse, by their own act they snap the silver cord, and pass beyond the pale of human judgment.

Sherman's Trust or rather anti Trust bill is before the Senate for consideration. Tnere are many people who consider that Blaine was not altogether wrong when he said the government had nothing to do with trusts. The Sherman bill is probably as good a one as can be framed on the subject but the argument has already been made that' it is unconstitutional. Whether adopted or defeated it will not be by a strict party vote. It is conceded on all sides that something must be done to prevent vast aggregations of capital for the purpose of keeping up prices but exactly the same principle obtains when combinations of farmers or laboring men form for securing an advance in prices. The latter is right, the former is wrong, although the object of the combination is the same in both instances. In the case of the farmera and the laboring men they are fully justified in forming alliances and unions for the purpose of securing better prices because they are not now sufficiently compensated, but the monopolies are already making larger profits than their investments justify and they have no right to combine to force prices up still higher. And yet how can we legislate against one without interfering with the other? Is there any method of dealing with "trusts" except through Congress? It would seem that with as many statesmen to the square inch as we have in this country some scheme could be found for abolishing tliis pernicious feature which is assuming alarming proportions. If Sherman's bill will do it let it Income a law as speedily as possible. y.i »M

Ik it were not so sadly pathetic it would excite one's risibilities to read the heartrending accounts of the widow's condition, according to the reporters, when her husband is suddenly removed. These enterprising sensationalists have made several dispositions of the widow of poor Woodruff, the unfortunate fireman at Indianapolis. First they had her sitting at the window in a dazed and helpless condition. Then they deprived her of her reason and left her insane for a few days. After her family corrected this report and the body of her husband was found they immediately proceeded to kill her off* with the great stress of grief, but resurrected her in the next paragraph. This is only one in stance of the extreme to which sensationAsm is carried and the widow seems to be the most promising subject for the reporter's pen. |i|

FOLLY'S STAMPEDE.

"You'll have to get out o' this, Miss Pbllyr shouted Dick Mayhew, riding hastily up to where Polly Danvers mt watching the restless cattle. "There's going to be a stampede sure, and youTl be in danger. Ride back to Uie ranch as fa at as you can go, won't you? Give the word there. I'll need help with this!"

The cowboy dashed away again as fast as possible, and Polly prepared to obey, but not so promptly as her trusty friend expected. Just for a moment she could not leave the fascination of that expected stampede. It would be delightful to see the whole performance, for it bade fair to be the most interesting thing that had happened since the beginning of her visit to her father's great cattle ranch on the plains.

But she must: go. She had promised her father, when he reluctantly gave his consent to this her first visit to the herd, that she would do exactly what Dick Mayhew said.

Well, at least she would have the wild delight of a free gallop across the prairie alone. There was rapture in that for a girl whose fifteen years had all been spent in an eastern city. She had learned to ride like an Indian since coming out here and had become almost as fearless and self reliant as the cowboys. "Dick will need help, sure enough," said Polly, looking after the cowboy. "If it only weren't for that promise to father I'd stay and help him myself.g would, indeed!" 1

Her blood danced at the thought, but with much firmness she put it to one side and prepared to depart. She made sure that her equipments were all right, even to the umbrella her thoughtful father had slung to the saddle in case of sudden necessity, and reluctanUy gave her horse the long delayed signal to go.

The animal obeyed the signal and went but the manner of his going took his rider's breath away. The horse had grown old in the cattle business, and it now became evident that bis interest in that business amounted to enthusiasm.

Under protest he had stood tolerably still until now, notwithstanding things were going on which demanded his active atteution.^But when he was required to turn fffd gallop away from a stampeding herd of cattle, he simply refused to obey such a preposterous command. So, instead of going in the direction suggested to him, he bolted and dashed after Dick Mayhew in fine style.

Polly had her wish in spite of herself, but she felt more dismay than exultation in the fact. This was a very different thing from sitting at a safe distance and wishing she could join in the chase. But she had no time for vain regrets now. The terrible predicament into which she was forced demanded all her thoughts and would require all^ her courage and self possession.

It was a terrible predicament, indeed, and if she managed to keep her seat in the saddle and to keep safely out of the way of all those tossing horns and thundering hoofs, she would have something to be thankful for so long as she might live.

The crisis had developed with wonderful rapidity. When Dick's warning was given the herd had been restless and unruly when Polly's horse bolted with her he raced after a great crowd of panic stricken creatures sweeping like a tornado across the plain. The stampede had fairly begun. And, as is always the case in catUe stampedes, there was no apparent reason whatever for the commotion.

If Polly could have remained quietly in her original position and watched the affair at leisure, she would have enjoyed such an exhibition as she had never dreamed of. All the cattle of the great herd had become solidly massed together and were rushing at headlong speed over the level ground.

From a distance a great dark stream would have been seen pouring onward with the swift undulations of a rapid river. From the nearer point of view that Polly was forced to accept, more details were visible, and some of them were not pleasant to look upon.

Everywhere throughout the mass ter rible white horns tossed and rippled like Uie froth of the angry current. Here and there, as one head after another was reared upward, the red gleam of maddened eyes was visible. Tongues that dripped with foam began to appear.

If a beast was crowded from its feet it never knew what it was to take another step. In an instant it was overthrown, trampled upon by hundreds of hoofs and left dead upon the ground.

And the noise of the living torrent was fearful. The thunder of the galloping hoofs sounded incessantly there was a perpetual roar from the bellowing throats the rattling clash of horns as Uie tossing heads struck together was like the beating of bail and the panting of Uie hurrying brutes sounded like the rush of wind.

And close upon the edge of this horned army—so close it seemed sometimes that a pair of waving horns must catch in her habit skirt—the frightened city girl was being hurled along by her unmanageable horse.

But though frightened now in good earnest Polly k#pt her wits about her. With one hand she held her flying skirt away from Ugose, threatening horns and the steady firmness of her hold on the bridle kept the horse from crowding into actual contact with the outside cattle.

It was a fearful race. None of the maddened creatures paid the slightest attention to horse or rider. But the situation was bad enough without that. At any moment her horse might dash into the midst of the herd, and then neither horse nor rider would have another minute of life to hope for.

A misstep at the terrific pace ihey ere going.would throw the horse to the ground *n& cast the helplew girl headlong under the multitude of trampling

in earnest. He seemed to know perfecUy what he was about and to be sair isfied that it was the right thing exactly. It seemed as though he fully understood wha& Dick Mayhew was working for, and was trying his best to help him.

But why Diffk Mayhew or anybody elae should risk his neck in a race with that herd of cattle was a thing that puzzled the girl. Nothing could stop them. An army of horsemen could not make them turn back. Yet all the time her cowboy friend rode close beside Uie leaders of the herd, now firing a pistol in the air, now waving his arms frantically, now uttering sudden wild uhouts.

And at every fresh surprise Uie leaders nearest the cowboy edged a liffle away from him and shoved the inside cattle in the same direction. So, litUe by litUe, the man was forcing the head of Uie mad procession farther and farther from the straight line of march.

All at once Polly understood the whole thing. She had beard her father and his men talk about "winding up" a stampeding herd. The thing to do was to push the leaders gradually around in a circle. The others would follow, and as the circle grew smaller and smaller the front of the column would overtake the rear, and finally the cattle would be so helplessly wound up that they would stop in sheer bewilderment. This was what she was helping Dick Mayhew to do.

Suddenly her horse swerved a littie and thrust his head fairly against the side of one of the maddened cattle. A pair of red, angry eyes were turned in Polly's direction, and they seemed to see for the first time this meddlesome outrider, With a bellow of rage the creature lowered its wide spreading horns, and without further warning straightway charged upon the horse and its helpless rider.

Polly did not scream. A tightening at her throat made her voiceless. Her danger was fearfully great and she knew it. In an instant the terrible enemy was upon her. He had dashed away from the herd beyond her horse, and then turning with lowered head was making his onslaught. The girl saw that even if she escaped death on the points of those dreadful horns she was likely to be cast headlong upon the bristling horns of the galloping herd.

But the wise old horse saw Uie danger as quickly as she, and knew far better how to manage it. Just as the lowered horns almost touched him he swerved suddenly, turned sharply about and galloped to the rear. So the horns aimed at the horse struck a member of the herd and aroused great anger in him.

In a moment the horse had turned again and was in full career toward the front once more. With difficulty Polly had kept her seat through these swift and surprising evolutions. Now, when she faced about, she saw two furious members of the herd detached and in hot pursuit, not of her, but of Dick Mayhew. If one horse could not be overthrown another would serve!

In one awful second the girl realized both the peril of her faithful friend and her own inability to even warn him. In another instant the shock would be upon him and he would be killed before her eyes. If only he could be made to know of his danger! If only she could attract those furious creatures to herself once more!

With a flash of inspiration Polly saw a faint possibility of rescue. With cries and with blows from her small fists she urged the horse to a swifter run, so that the distance between her and Dick became less and less. And then, laughing aloud at the absurdity of her device, she bent down and unslung her umbrella from the saddle,

As she grasped the liandle she was close behind the cowboy. But so were the pursuers she strove to rescue him from. Before she could cry out both the enraged creatures had struck Dick Mayhew's horse, and the poor animal lay bleeding and disabled on the ground, while his stunned rider struggled to free himself from the entanglement which held him.

The force of the collision threw both the assailants backward toward the herd. Before they could recover from the recoil and renew their charge the horse which had begun the disturbance swept, with his plucky young rider, between them and their victim.

As Dick Mayhew struggled to his feet he saw the amazing apparition of Polly Danvers flying past him like the wind. She had something in her hands, and as she passed the two brutes, which were about to charge upon him for the second time, he saw them both dash backward in affright, In Uie sudden rebound they were caught beneath the hoofs of their companions and in a twinkling the life was trampled out of them.

Polly had found her weapon at last, and it had done good service for it had enabled her to save the life of the friend who, in another moment, would have been a mangled corpse beside his horse.

As she rode forward she had grasped Uie handle of her umbrella with one hand, while Uie other hand was on the spring of this extraordinary implement of warfare. In dashing past Uie two threatening creatures she had suddenly, and with a wild scream, spread the umbrella in their astonished faces, with Uie result already described.

And as he looked, Dick Mayhew saw the umbrella at the head of the stampeding herd, still opening amS shutting tike the flapping of a great biaok wingv

That evening, when at last Dick Mayhew had got Iter safely back to the ranch, and when everybody was making a tremendous ado over her, Polly produced
