Company "A's'' Proposed Visit to
TRcOmas
Aspecial meeting Of Company A will be
held tonight at the armory to take action
regarding the proposed trip to the Tacoma
exposition tomorrow, in honor of militia
day. 1t seems that a number of the men,
bers are so situated that they cannot 20
in the morning at the regular starting time
of the Multnomah. 1t was suggested that
they 90 in the afternoon on the City of Alb
erdeen and return on the Multi
nomah, but answer was at once
made that such a change could
not be made because the agreement
of the Multnomah's captain to wait at Ia
coma until 10 O'Clock was conditional upon
the round trip. Tonight the matter will
be discussed from all sides and definitely
settled. If enough militia men TO make
good showing signify a willingness to go in
the morning, it is quite probable they will
appear in their uniforms, but if not they
will visit the exposition as private citizens.

TRANSPORTATION NOTES.


1t is proposed to erect time bell on the
the Tacoma city hall for the accommoda-
| ton of shipmasters.
The steamship Victoria, of the Northern
Pacific line, will probably arrive in Puget
Sound waters Sunday.
Improvements costing $4,000 have been
put upon the depot and store houses of the
| Northern Pacific at North Yakima.
It is generally understood that the prime
object of the present visit of President Van
Horne of the Canadian Pacific railway to
England is to arrange for fast Atlantic
steamship service.
General Passenger Agent Goodman, of
the Southern Pacific, says he does not an
ticipate rate war as result of the threat
ened stampede among the roads of the
transcontinental association.
An official of the Great Northern said
| recently; "If the weather is not unusually
bad and nothing unforeseen happens we
will drive the last spike on the Great
Northern within the next sixty days. By
the 18th of December rates will have been
fixed and trains running through to Chi
cago without change Of cars"
A circular has been issued by the man
agement of the Northern Pacific directing
the officials of that system to be on the
alert for any cases Of sickness, to keep the
road and offices in the best sanitary condi-
tiOn, and to cooperate with the state and
local authorities in every way possible for
the prevention of the spread of cOntagion
Special supervision will be exercised over
the company's branch which connects
with Manitoba.
Hundreds of men are working on the
Canadian Pacific railways roadbed pre-
paratory to starting the new train service
between Chicago and Halifax, where it will
connect with a line of fast European
steamers. All new trains will be scheduled
to run sixty miles an hour, making the
running time from Chicago to Victoria
about the same as that of express trains
between New York and Chicago.
More traffic between Chicago and San
Francisco starts east than west. Even be-
fore the present demoralized rates were be-
gun by the clipper ship competition it was
cheaper to ship via New York and the
ocean than directly west via all rail lines.
Within the post month the amount of
| traffic taking this roundabout route has
| grown enormously. Officials of eastern
lines have known Of the increase, but have
kept quiet about it, owing to the fear of its
being discovered by the western lines, but
the western lines have thrown up their
hands, and now Chicago merchants are
making demands on eastbound railroads
that they issue through bills of lading to
San Francisco. 1t is thought that it will
be done before the week closes, and the
anomaly will then be presented of routes
eastward carrying freight to San francisco
| cheaper than anV loading westward

HOPEFUL DEMOCRATS.
How They Were Pleased with the
Vote in Three states.

vote IN Inree STATES
New York, September 15.-The demo-
cratic national committee has issued the
following address;
The democratic national committee con-
graduates the country on the result of the
recent state elections in Maine, Vermont
and Arkansas. In Arkansas the combined
opposition fell short by over 10000 votes
of the democracy alone. This brought dis
may to the combination in the South and
its manipulatOrs in the North. In Maine
and Vermont the contest was conducted
distinctly on national issues. The republi-
can managers appeal summoned the aid
of all the potent resources of their nation
al organization, with an exhaustless treas
ury and splendid equipment of orators.
The campaign of our adVersaries for a tri-
umphant vote in these states, so carefully
planned and so thoroughly and forcefully
executed, ended in conspicuous disaster.
Our friends everywhere are entitled to take
fresh courage from the results.

stirring speech in this city today in the

the time for farmers to demand surcease
from unjust, unequal and excessive taxa
ton had arrived. He made an exhaust

proof of his remarkable statement of two
years ago that, estimating farm wages
at the same rate as city wages, the Iowa
crops had sold for n cents per acre less
than it cost to produce them.
Governor BOles also disussed the force
bill, currency and other planks of the ma

present prohibition law in Iowa.

A meeting of the Capital City Drum
Corps was held last night in Woodruf's
hall. The report of the committee ap-
pointed to draft constitution and by-lBws
was read and adopted.
II. A. Percival was chosen president and
f, B. OoyingtOn secretary of the organiza-
ton. The boys are confronted by a seri-
GUS financial problem. They must have
drums before they can make much of a stir
as drum corps. Instruments, uniforms
and the paraphernal1a of such an organiza-
ton means that somebody must produce a
few good round dollars. The membe
have ransacked the "hOld out'' pockets of
their own garments, but find by pooling
their issues, that they fall somewhat short
of the amount required. 1t has been sug-
gested that some enterprising statesman
could make himself famous by providing
the drums and having his name appended
thereto. Merchants have been known to
have set drum corps up in business, and
thereby impress their name and business
upon the public ear. Company "a" has
kindly consented to permit the new drum
corps to drill and drum in the armOry.
With drum corps, a brass band and half
dozen political organizations, Olympia
will be well equipped for the campaign.

CHAPTER XVII
THE CONCLUSION.

The fight of Pearson was discovered
by Scraggs Mt an early hour the next
morning, and little later upon making
II visit to the bank he learned of his en-
bezzlemcnt of Blatchford's money. lie
immediately teleGraphed in various di-
rections hoping TO apprchend the rascal.
Int it proved all in vain. Pearson made
good his escape.
Upon returning TO Green's rs agreed.
Scraggs and the doctor found Blatch-
ford in n critical condition. The ex-
citemcnt of the last few days, together
with the mental suffering it had
brought him, had been too much for
him, and now they found him weak and
failing. DIR. Bascom examined the old
man closely, and though he made no re-
port on the case his face became grave
and thoughtful, and the who saw it
felt sure that there was something seri-
GUS in his patients ailment.
Scraggs would have avoided telling
what he had discovered that morning.
but Blatchford insisted on hearing
everything about Pearson, and asked so
many questions regarding him that
Scraggs was eventually forced to reveal
all he knew.
The. old man groaned and CRASHED his
teeth, and for n long time said nothing.
AT last, raising himself in bed he spoke,
looking steadily at his daughter.
Mary" he said, ~ have come to YOU
at last, but i have come as a pauper. I
come empty handed, and with nothing
but my poor love to give you. That
which / have shaved for. and which of
right was yours, has been stolen from
me by the one / took to my heart in
your stead. | turned you from my door
and took Harry Pearson in. / left you
to starve while l lavishcd money on
him. And now he has robbed me and
left me penniless, with no roof but
yours to shelter my head. MY punish
ment is great, but it is not more than 1
deserve"
For three or four days the broken
hearted old man fingered on, growing
weaker hour by hour in spite of all DIR.
Bascom could do, and at last it became
apparent that death would soon claim
him. The Greens cxerted themselves
to the utmost TO make his last
hours as pleasant as possible, but
their kindness and unselfish attentions
augmented rather than diminished his
sorrows, since they only too plainly re-
minded him of the great sin of his life.
He never spoke of his wife during all
his illness, and it appeared that he had
forgotten her. All his talk was of his
