Express says the conspiracy! law

was right. What do the wage earners of Terre Ilaute think of the Express? To» Nkws does not believe a laboring man should be sent to the penitentiary for threatening intimidation. The ilorniag Misinformed does.

Mh. Moukt, Republican candidate for congress, voted against the conspiracy law repeal. He will be remembered in the mining districts, in the shops and factories, and by the railroad men of this district for,his outrageous vote.

Tmk extent to which a partisan paper 5« under the party lash was never better illustrated than by the Express' attitude on the repeal of the conspiracy law. It was forced to say that the infamous law was right, because James A. Mount voted against its ropeal and because James A. fount is now a candidate for Congress.

I'oi.rririAKS are permitting the time to elapse and no great effort is being mode to educate the voters on the subject of th© new election law. In the election this fall it is as important that voters should know how to vote as for whom they intend to vote. It is an educational campaign and the Australian system of voting should be thoroughly understood. If not there will be a large percent, of ballots thrown oat. In Vigo county it is especially necessary that every vote should be in accordance with law and should be counted, for the reason that the political partiesare so evenly balanced that a few votes may throw the result either way. Thr Kawshas mged the political managers to thoroughly instruct the voters in the manner of voting. If it is not done, Uws result will be uncertain.

HERE AND THERE.

Patrolmen Kotsch and Reisman got in to it with Joe Blake yesterday. Tbey wanted to ride to the fair grounds on one of his cars, but for some reason or another Mr. Blake objected. He politely informed the policemen that none of their stripe could ride on his cars. Joe seems to have a constitutional antipathy for blue-coats.

A gentleman wearing the blue boarded a Wabash avenue car. He held a roundtrip ticket for the fair grounds. He sat down beside a pale-face clerk with a heavy dark mustache. He was fidgety, and finally bursted out with— "Why don't the conductor come around?" "Ufaere is a box up there for your ticket," quietly observed the clerk. "A box?" "Yes." "Well, but I have a round-trip ticket and don't want to put it all in." "Give it to me," said the clerk, and taking the ticket he tore off the proper end and shoved it into the slot. "What in the devil did you do that for?" exclaimed the soldier. "Why, that was right," was the response "this half brings you back." "I'll bet you a three-year-old filly, worth more'n Sunol, that you're dead wrong."

The clerk said nothing. The soldiers boisterous tone of voice made him quake. -, "I'll bet all I'm worth that you don know what you are—do you?" "Yes," answered the clerk, I'm a Republican. Presume you know what you are?" "Me! I'm a free-born American citizen and a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat."

The clerk looked like he wished his tormentor had been a died in-liis-iufancy Democrat, but he said nothing. "Did you hoar?" finally shouted the soldier. "You ought to be buried. Crape should be constantly kept on your doer —you're dead- I was in the war—fought all through it and have three sons that are Democrats." "So?" breathed the clerk. "I believe you're an Englishman, suddenly broke out the Boluier. "If I

thought you was an Englismau I'd lick you, for of all men none are so little thought of as dagos and Englishmen. Aro you an Englishman, sir?" "1 a prize fighter," said the clerk, with a great effort at firmness.

The veteran's eyes bulged out like base balls and his lower jaw fell. Thus he stared. It was eight blocks to where the clerk was going, but while the soldier was yet paralyzed with surprise, he took a sneak from the car. He Xelt better, too a) he saw the soldier being carried rapid ly away, ©yen if he did have to walk.

AMUSEMENTS.

Tho successful actor, Robert Downing, supported by Miss Eugenia Blair and a powerful company present Saumet's sublime tragedy, "The Gladiator," at Naylor's on Saturday evening, and from present indications it will prove to be a successful event, both artistically and financially. The mountings will be unusually handsome and effective. Dramatic students should make it a point to attend the performance.

MneI.eAn-Pret*cotf.'

The engagement of these two stars at Naylor's next Monday and Tuesday evenings will be an evpnt of unusual importance. "Elarmachis," the new play, from H.

While dting for him to arrange matter* to that ahe proceed, she talks with an interesting young man who is of an in ventive turn ana whose name i»

She is on her way to viait an ola friend of her father, Maj. Randolph. CHArETRZ—Rose arrives at the ranch of Maj. Randolph. He is tbe second husband of a French woman who had, when he married her, two children. The girl is named Adele and her brother, now a young man ,• Emile. The dom* stic atmosphere at the Randolphs* is not always unclouded. Mme. Randolph suggests, much to the major's disgust, that a match between Emile and Rose would not be injudicious.

Chaptee3.—Rose is somewhat dazzled by the dignified Wrench manners of Mme. Randolph and her children. Emile Is on the brink of a proposal when an earthquake shakes the honse. He runs away, leaving KOse to take care of herself. She escapes unharmed. Fearing annother shock the family improvise a shelter, rather than spend the night in the house.

She unintentionally bcara Mme. Randolph talking to the major about the possible matin between her and Emile. Tbe major protests, whereupon Mme. Randolph asserts tbat Kose has voluntarily placed herself in a compromising situation with Emile.

Chapter 5.-Rose is horrified and runs from the place, getting a conveyance to take her to San Jose, where she intends to telegraph for her father. Dawson drives her to 8an Jose and she, in her nervousness, tells him the whole story. It develops that he had suspected as much, is also a friend of her father, and had telegraphed him on his own responsibility the daybefore.

CHAPTSK 6.-Dawson leaves Rose at San Jose and goes b»ckto the ranch. He meets Mme. Randolph alone and shows that he knows her carefuSiy hidden history. She was a creo. slave before the war and her master, who afterward married her was «he father of her children. Dawson effectually discomfits her and shedesides to go away. Mr. Millory arrives and decides to buy a portion of the Randolph ranch, and Rose is to stay there with him. Torn Bent is engaged to find the water lost through the earthquake, and unless appear

ances

are deceitful Tom and Rose become very good friends indeed.

CHAPTER VT.

It was nearly noon when Mr. Dawson finished rubbing down his sweating mare in the little stable shed among the wheat. He had left Rose at the hotel, for they found that Mr. Mallory had previously started by a circuitous route for the wheat ranch. He had resumed not only his working clothes but his working expression. He was now superintending the unloading of a wain of stores and implements when the light carryall of the Randolphs rolled into the field. It contained only Mrs. Randolph and the driver. A slight look of intelligence passed between the latter and the nearest one of Dawson's companions, succeeded, however, by a dull look of stupid vaoaney on the face of all the others, including Dawson. Mrs. Randolph noticed it and was forewarned. She reflected that no human beings ever looked naturally as stupid as that and were able to work. She smiled sarcastically and then began with dry distinctness and narrowing lips. "Miss Mallory, a young lady visiting us, went out for an early walk this morning and has not returned. It is possible she may have lost her way ftmnny your wheat. Have you seen anything of her?'

Dawson x$dsed his eyes from his work and glanced slowly around at his companions if taking the heavy soene of the assembly. One or two shook their heads mechanically, and returned to their suspended labor. He said coolly: "Nobody here seems to."

She felt that they were lying. She was only a womati against five men she wae only a petty domestic tyrant. She might have been a larger one, but she had all the courage of that possibility. "Maj. Randolph and my son are away," she went on, drawing herself erect. "But I know that the major will pay liberally if these men will search the field, besides making it all right with your employers for the loss of time."

Dawson uttered a single word in a low voice to the man nearest him, who apparently communicated it to the others, for the four men stopped unloading and moved away one after the other, even the driver joining in the exodus. Mrs. Randolph smiled sarcastically it was plain that these people with all their boasted independence were quite amenable to pecuniary considerations. Nevertheless, as Dawson remained looking quietly at her, she said: "Then I suppose they've concluded to go and see?* "No, Tve sent than away so that they couldn't hear."

"Hpar what?" s'* 'M What Tve got to say to ycttf' Vr She looked at him suddenly. Then she said with a disdainful glance around her: "I see I am helpless here, and, thanks to your trickery, alone. Have a care, sir. I warn you that you will have to answer to Maj. Randolph for any ingolecce.* "I reckon you won't tell Maj. Randolph what I have to say to you," hereturned coolly.

Her lips were nearly a grayish hue, but she said scornfully: "And why not? Do you know who yon are talking to?"

The rnan came lazily forward to the carryall, carelessly brushed aside the alack reins, and resting his elbows on tho horse's back laid his cbin on his hands as he looked up in the woman's faoe. "Yes, I know whoPm talking to," he eaid ceoDy. "Butaa the major don't, I reckon jfoa won't tell him." "Stand away from that horse,** she said, ber whole face taking the grayish color of tor lips* but her Mack eyes growing smaller and brighter. "Hand me thoeo reins and 1«* mo pass. What oana&to aro you to stop atef* "I thought so," returned the man without altering his position. "Yon don't know me.Yoa raw** aaw me heft** Well, I'm Jim Dawson, tbe nephew of L'BocsHmadi^m, your old ouster!*

She gripped the iron rail o# the as iftnk*j from it, twit chacked hearsotf su&lBsdy and teamed back with a set smile oct her mouth that seemed stamped then.

change your blood. Why, it

Itt been willing to stay at Avoyelles to be a nigger driver like liim the plantation of "De Fontagoa," whose name fott have taken, would have been left to me. If you had staid there you might have been my property instead 81 your owning a square man like Randolph. Yon didn't think of that when you came here, did yon?' added composedly. "Oiu inou Dieut" she said, dropping rapidly into a different accent, with her white teeth and fixed, mirthless smile, "so it is a claim for property, eh? You're wanting money—you? Tree bien. You forget we are in California, where one does not own a slave. And you have a fine story there, my poor friend. Very pretty, but very hard to prove, m'sieu. And these peasants are in it, eh? Working it on shares Hke the farm, eh?" "Well," eaid Dawson, slightly changing his position sad passing his hand ever the hoise neck with a half wearied ccn&mpt, "one of these men is from Vlaquemine and the other from Coupee. They know all the L'Homxnadieu's history. And they know a streak of the tar brush when they see it They took your measure when they came here last year and sized you up fairly. So had I, for the matter of that, when I first saw you. And we compared notes. But the major is a square man, for all he is your husband, and we reckoned he had a big enough contract on his hands to take care of you and L'Hommadieu's half breeds, and so"—he tossed the reins contemptuously aside—' 'we kept this to ourselves." "And now you want what, eh?" "We want an end to this foolery," he broke out roughly, stepping back from the vehicle and facing her suddenly with his first angry gesturS. "We want an. end to these airs and grimaces and all this 'dandy nigger business.- "^We want an end to this 'cake walking' through the wheat and floating of the honest labor of your betters. We want you and your 'de Fontages' to climb down I And we want an end to this ropin' in of white folks to suit your little game. Wo want an end to your trying to mix your nigger blood with any one here, and we intend to stop it. We draw the line at the major."

Lashed as she had been by those words, apparently out of all semblance of her former social arrogance, a lower and more stubborn resistance seemed to have sprung up in her as she sat sideways watching him with her set smile and contracting eyes. "Ah," she said dryly, "so She is here. I thought so. Which of you is it, eh? It's a good spec Mallory's a rich man, She's not particular." I

The man had stopped as if listening, his head turned toward the road. Then he turned carelessly and facing her again waved his hand with a gesture of tired dismissal and said: "Go! You'll find your driver over there by the tool shed: Ho has heard nothing yet, but Fve given you fair warning. Go!"

He walked slowly back toward the shed as the woman, snatching up the reins, drove violently off in the direction where the men had disappeared. But she turned aside, ignoring her wilting drivej^jn Jber wild and reckless abandonment of all her old conventional attitudes, and lashing hor horse forward with the same set smile on her face, the same odd relaxation of figure and the same squaring of her elbows.

Avoiding, the main road she pushed into a narrow track that intersected ^another nearer the scone of the accident to Rose's buggy three weeks before. She had nearly passed it when she was hailed by a strange voice, and looking up perceived a horseman floundering in the mazes of the wheat to one side of the track. Whatever mean thought of her past life she was flying from, whatever mean purpose sho was flying to, she pulled up suddenly and as suddenly resumed her erect, aggressive stiffness. The stranger was a middle aged man, in dress and appearance a dweller of cities. He lifted his hat as he perceived the oocupant of the wagon to be a lady. "I beg your pardon, but I fear Pve lost my way in trying to make a short cut to the Excelsior's company rancho." "You are in it now," said Mrs. Randolph quickly. "Thank you, but where can I find the farm house?" "There is none," she returned with her old superciliousness, "unless you choose to give that name to the shanties and sheds where the laborers and servants live, near the road."

The stranger looked puzzled. 'Tm looking for a Mr. Dawson," h» said reflectively, "but I may have made some mistake. Do you know Maj. Randolph's house hereabouts?" "I da I am Mrs. Randolph," she said stiffly.

The stranger's brow cleared and he smiled pleasantly. "Then this is a fortunate meeting," he said, raising his hat again as he reined in his horse beside the wagon, "for I am Mr. Mallory, and I was looking forward to the pleasure of presenting myself to you an hour or two later. The fact is, an old acquaintance, Mr. Dawson, telegraphed me yesterday to meet him here on urgent business and I felt obliged to go there first.'*

Mrs. Randolph's eyes sparkled with a sudden gratified intelligence, but bar maimer seemed rather to increase than abate its grim precision,

"Our meeting this morning, Mr. Mallory, Is both fortunate and unfortunate, for I regret to say that your daughter, who has not been quite herself since the earthquake, was missing this

and has not yet been found—though we have searched everywhere. Understand me," she said, as the stranger started* have no fear for her personal safety—J am only concerned for any iudiscrefton that she may commit in ths presence of these strangers, whom company she would seem to prefer to oura," ''But I don't understand ycra, madam" said MaBory sternly. "You are^pe«king of mr daughter and"-—

Mallory regarded her for a moment fixedly, and then his sternness relaxed to a mischievously complacent smile. "That must be young Bent, of whom I've heard," he said, with unabated cheerfulness, "And I don't know but what she may be with him after all. For, now I think of it, a«huckle headed fellow of whom a moment ago I inquired the way to your house told me Fd better aak the young man and young woman 'who. were philandering through the wheat* yonder. Suppose we look for them? From what I ve heard of' Beat he's too much wrapped up in 'his inventions for flirtation, but it would be a good jokv to stumble upon them."

Mrs. Randolph's eyes sparkled with ft mingling of gratified malice and undisguised contempt for the fatuous father beside her. But before she could accept or decline the challenge it had become useless. A murmur of youthful voices struck her ear, and she suddenly stood upright and transfixed in the carriage, for lounging down slowly toward them out of the dim greah aisles of the arbored wheat, lost in themselves and the shimmering veil of their seclusion, came the en lfe.'or, Thomas Bent, and on his arm, gaztag ingenuously into: his faoe, the figure of Adele, her own perfect 'daughter. £2$ & ^4

:»"I

don't think, my dear," said Mr. Mallory, as the anxious Rose flew into his arms on his return to San Jose a few hours later, "that it will be necessary for you to go back again to Maj. Randolph's before we leave. I have said 'good-by' for you and thanked them, and your trunks are packed and will be sent here. The: fact is, my dear, you see this affair of the earthquake and tho disaster to the artesian well have upset all their arrangements, and I am afraid that nay little girl would be only in their way jtjst now."j':^ -f "And you have seen Mr. Dawson, and you know why he sent for you?" asked the young girl with nervous eagerness. "Ah, yes," said Mr. MaBory thoughtfully "that was really important. You see, my child," he continued, taking her hand in* one of his own and patting the back of it gently with the other, "we think, Dawson and I, of taking over the major's ranch and incorporating it with the Excelsior, to be worked in shares like the Excelsior, and as Mrs. Randolph is very anxious to return to the Atlantic states with her children it is quite possible. Mrs. Randolph, as you have possibly noticed," Mr. Mallory went on, stiU patting his daughter's hand, "does not feel entirely at home here, and will consequently leave the major free to rearrange by himself the rancho on the new basis. In fact, as the change must be made before the crops oome in, dhe talks of going next week. But if you like the place, Rose, I've no doubt the major and Dawson will always find room for you and me when we run down there for a little fresh air." "And did you have all that in your mind, papa, when you came down here? And was that what you and Mr. Dawson wanted to talk about?" said the astonished Rose.

"Mainly, my d^, mainly. You see, Pm a capitAlist now, and the real value of capital is to know how and when to apply it to certain conditions." "And this Mr.—Mr.—Bent—do you think—he will go on and find the water —papa?" said Rose hesitatingly. "Ah, Bent! Tom Bent! Oh, yes," said Mr. Mallory with great heartiness. "Capital fellow, Bent! and mighty ingenious. Q}ad you met him! Well"— thqughtfully, but still heartily—"he may not find it oxactly where he expected, but he'll find it, or something better. We can't part with him. and he's promised Dawson to stay. Well utilize him, you may be sure."

It would seem thSl thdjPdid. And frqm certain' interviews and conversations that took place between Mr. Bent and Miss Mallory on a later visit it would also appear that her father had exercised a discreet reticence in regard to a certain experiment of the young inventor of which he had been an accidental witness.
