Irrigation Needed Everywhere,

1rrlgaLlon NeeQeu everywhere,
San Antonio Express:
Experience shows that irriga-
ton is necessary in even the wet
test portions of the south, and in
fact, everywhere else. Rain is most
needed when it does not come :;
when couple of inches would be
just sufficient, the cultivator must
be content with a small fraction
of that amount. Hence there is no
more profitable investment for the
cultivator than an irrigation
pump. The water supply in much
of this country depends on the
seepage surface. Where a small
we'll would not furnish enough
water for an irrigation pump a
large we'll will. The pumps used
in wells will be of capacity suf1i-
Cient for five to twenty acres.
With the introduction of a few
such plants, demonstrating the
capabilities of soil and climate
under most favorable conditions,
the transformation of Southwest
Texas into land of orchards, vine-
yards and tr uck farms will gain
Roadway and grow at an increas-
ing ratio.

Don Cameron for President.

Philadelphia Times Dem.)
1t has long been an open secret
that Senator Cameron, of PennsyI-
vania, is training for the Repub-
lican presidential nomination, with
the hope of bringing into his entire
support the entire Populist ele-
ment Of the west and possibly of
the south. He is not an
impulsive man. On the con-
trary, he is one of the most
thoughtful and patient of men in
solving any important political
problem. What he has done to
put himself in condition for the
coming presidential race has been
naturally considered and he will
stand or fall on the platform and
policy he has chosen for himself.
Senator Cameron is something of
a paradox in politics. Only few
years ago his strength as a candi-
date for President would have been
in the trust reposed in him by the
business and financial interests of
the country. Today he is the same
republican in politics, and his
chief strength as a presidential
candidate is in the trust reposed in
him by the agrarian voters Of the
country, who are now marshaled
on the get-everything-fOr.nothing
platform, and who have behind
them the anarchial and revolution
airy elements Of the land. This is
very remarkable attitude for a
Republican candidate to occupy
who has been four times elected to
the United States Senate by the
Republicans of conservative and
honest-money loving Pennsylva-
mia, but Senator Cameron has de-
liberately made his platform and
all who know him well understand
that he will not depart from it..

CHAPTER v.
THE STRIKE.

Next morning the whole Of walkden
Bridge was early astir, and the great
est excitement prevailed everywhere
as to what would happen ut the mill,
what course the strikers would take,
and whether there would DO any dis
turbance.
Tom, who was much cooler and more
collected in the morning than he had
been when with Savannah Morbyn on
the previous evening, was out very
early, as he had promised to be with
the two girls.
About half-past five, all the people In
the village turned out and began TO
form little knots OF takers here and
there In the street, gradually drawing
nearer and nearer to the mill
Presently there was some little boot
Ing and kissing heard and number Of
people ran to see what was the cause.
II came from a small group of the strilx-
ers' who were standing together; and
the noise was intended as demonstra-
ton against Reuben Gorringc, who had
passed on his way 10 the mill, and was
looking after some Of the new hands.
He turned on the mon ut once and
went up and spoke TO them.
why do you hiss me and boot at
me2' he asked, In loud ringing voice
what man among you all, or in the
whole OF Wallsden Bridge, can say |
have ever done him anything but goodP
Haven't l always paid good wages?
Can any man say with truth that |
haven't tried TO make the place com
fortable2 Can anyone OF you say that
ever discharged man, woman or
child without full and sufficient cause?
Why, then, do you boot me?"
Cant we do as we like with our own
tongues2 You amt boss Of them, |
should think" cried one of the men;
and the Others laughed little.
Gorringe faced him in a moment,
and addressed him by name.
"Thats not the tongue you spoke In
last fall, Dick Grant, when you were
away two months and a half, and |
paid your wages all the time. I'm not
boss OF your tongue, it's true; and, SC
far as you're concerned, I'm not boss
OF your gratitude either"
what do you want TO go against the
society for?" asked another, after a
pause.
Put yourself in my place for a mo
ment Silas," answered Gorringe,
"Supposing you were running the
mill and were paying me the wage OF
taclfler and | was earning that of a
tepter for you, would you 20 on doing

rom was pfeaseo wnen wary told
him as much OF the interview as was
necessary to explain the reason Of the
new hand coming into the cottage, and
drew from II a good omen us TO their
future relations with Gorringe. lie on
his side also had good news, for the
manager had offered him n better po-
sition in the mill, TO act partly rs over.
locker and partly to find employment
In the office, n position showing trust
and confidence and bringing better
wages.
Mary looked on this as n further
proof Of Gorringe's sincerity In wish.
ing TO show his friendship, and wa
both glad and grateful.
In the evening, therefore, she set 10
work with light heart TO make the
cottage ready for the visitor, and the
next day as soon rs the days work wa
done she hurried 10 the cottage and
found the stranger had already arrived.
Are you Savannah Morbyn?' she
asked, looking curiously at the girl
whom she found sitting with her hat
and Jacket still on.
Eyes; and you, can see, are Mary
Ashworth. knew you at once from
the description given 20 me"
The stranger got up from her chair
and went holding out both her hands
TO Mary, who placed hers la them, con.
hdently and readily, and looked into
the others face.
As she touched the girls hands and
met the gaze OF her eyes, Mary felt
herself shrink as II with instructive
distrust.
"You are cold" said the newcomer,
who tried TO draw the girl closer TO
her
II am tired, think" said Mary,
moving away from her. 1.-THE work
has been very hard nnd-and want
my tea" IL was lame conclusion,
but the girl could not explain nor ac-
count for the feeling which took pos
session OF her.
She took Savannah up the narrow
staircase and left her in the bedroom
she was TO occupy, while she herself
went TO that in which her mother and
herself were TO sleep, and tried to
shake off the feeling that oppressed
her. They had tea, and when Tom
came in TO speak of the arrangements
for the next morning he found them
together.
"And Is this Tom-your Tum2' said
Savannah, rising and smiling to Mary,
She put her hand into Toms and
clasped his firmly In her own while she
looked at him hxedly out Of her deep
violet eyes.
And as he held her hand and gazcd
ut her, devouring with his eyes the
ravishing and voluptuous beauty Of
her face, and the full, rich, graceful
form, he felt that such q woman as
this had never before stood clasping
his hand in hers, and reading his very
soul with eyes that seemed to burn
into every nook and Granny Of his
mind.
lie stood holding her hand, and felt
as though he could not turn away
from the eyes that riveted his, hold
ing him as In chains which he had no
wish TO loose. until she herself released
him.
There seemed some subtle power in
the woman that he had never met with
before; 1t maddened him, and even the
pained and scared look which he saw
on Mary Ashworth's pale face did not
serve TO recall him wholly TO himself,
nor make him conscious OF anything
except strange, fierce, passionate
pleasure in the company OF this won
drously beautiful creature. He was
like man intoxicated.
