the entirely different condition of affairs in
the South, where it became possible to car
ry out the aristocratic system into minutest
details. Between these two systems there
was an inevitable conflict
1t has been said that slavery was the es
sen tial cause Of the war. Slavery was only
an incident, important, but incidental.
1t furnished the opportunity for aris-
tocracy to spread and so gave n
mighty impulse to an already ostab
listed but undeveloped system. With its
ouerthrow the system itself suffered a severe
shock from which IL has never recovered.
But aristocracy, In sent ment, in habit of
thought ami of liie in its contempt of the
masses in i.H selfish exclusivenoss, existed
in the South before the African and exists
there still, since his liberation. 1t has
been said also that the cause OF the war was
a difference Of political oninons, the theory
of q conferacy of States being op
posed by the theory of the union
Of Statee. But there was in fact
no room Tor such n construction OF the
constitution. Tho coniederacy of States had
been tried and had proved dismal failure.
The Union established in 1887 was q delib-
crate rejection of the conlederacy. Aris-
tocrGcy saw its asC sndency endangered and
| IL was the arrogant claim OF eristocraCy to
absolute supremacy in America which pre-
cipitated one of the most terrible, but also
one of tho most glorious conflicts ever
waged. In a market degree the future OF
humanity was determined bv this struggle.
It was for humanity you fought, soldiers OF the
Grand Army. 1t was n war of principle
In this country had been established, With
great difficulty, government by the
people, such a. mad never before existed in
| the history of msp. A great exreriment
was hahn tried nnd unon its succass de-
nended the fate Of democracy.

CHAPTER l.

THE MESSAGE.

The sun had just sunk behind the
hills, leaving Evans Gulch in soft
shadow and its prominent citizens. in a
brisk discussion on the merits of an old
map which Sheriff Woodruff had pro-
duced to confirm one of his statements.
An old map it looked to be; greasy and
marked by the fingers of hasty pros
pectors; almost as ancient in appearance
as an Egyptian papyrus that had lain
pressed closely to the bosom of mummy
for ages. Yet the sheriff had sworn by
it for years, and he dared to produce it
and lay it side by side with one ,of the
governments newest. that was almost
as unintelligible from its plexus of red,
blue and green lines, dots and specks,
squares and circles, figures and names.
The sheriff proudly stated that his
map was made in thirty-seven, a fact
that, for him, was proof of its virtues,
for he believed that a map, like whisky,
gathered virtue with years. 1t showed
vast vacant spaces marked "'unexplored
territory" and in spite of the fact that
the chimneyS in Leadville smoked in the
distance, three miles away, where his
reliable map showed an arid region, he
still affirmed his faith in it. He had his
supporters, three or four, who swore by
the sheriff, and they stOutly backed him
in his assertion that there's just as
many UNEMPLOYED tracts in this ERE
country as ever-Or nearly as many
anyhow" Gale Whitley had the ma
jority with him as with fluent gestures
and few words he spread the new map,
gaudy, butterfylike, on the faro table
and said scornfully, Put your thumb
on spot where there's no names of
hills, towns, rivers or camps! The
sheriff, whose thumb was none of the
smallest, would have found it difficult
task even had he essayed it, but he
would not deign to bestOw glance upon
the ''circus chart" as he called the paint
ed thing.
All Evans Gulch knew what this dis
cussion was about. 1t was an old SUBJ
ject, and the new map had been pro-
cured as clincher to Gales oft repeated
assertions that "the whole country was
explored, and no use talkin." A few of
the least interested stood on the out

The car 1UGs dashed against the around
NTH such force as TO thrOlC gilbert out
skirts of the little gathering, half in the
wide doorway, watching, with idle
smiles that now and again broke into
laughs as either disputant scored n
point, the big, quivering. fat figure of
the sheriff-his red brown face, covered
with freckles, pursed up into oleaginous
wrinkles as he listened-and Gales wiry,
nervous form and excited eyes as he
ran his thin, calloused hands through
his long, leather colored hair. The ar
gument was emphasized. punctuated
and rounded out at frequent intervals
by the most astonishing and unneces-
sary profanity.
Remarks of highly personal nature
interlarded the discourse, and names
and adjectives were applied with an I'M
conscious natural freedom that would
have amazed any one unused to Evans
Gulch. But remarks as to ones mo-
rality, sanity, parentage or nativity,
when applied as aids to the open discus
sion of subject, were unnoticed in that
locality, and were considered only as so
many flowers of metaphor, frightening
the dull path of logical argument. So
Gale Whitley, in applying to the sheriff
the title of a "driveling old windbag,"
in nowise reflected upon his official ca
pacity, and likewise, when the sheriff
pointedly pronounced Whitley IAN es-
capped lunatic from some eastern asy-
lum," he did not in the least influence
the opinion of his hearers, who knew
Gale to be a good prospector and min,
eralogist and a man of varied accom-.
plishments.
Standing nearest to the door, with his
face turned upward toward the western
sky, stood lean, tall boy watching the

turn Ieaden in the fading Of the day

health is now failing and his recovery
