Nothing would bring the blush of shame to the cheek of any true Ari- zOnsn So quick az even the thought that this great free silver territory might be misrepreseuted in congress by man elected on gold bug plat torm-a gold bug, in fact. The average voter would scof at the idea that such .n unfortunate condition was at all a possibility. But as matter of fact
 the condition is not only possible, but probable, for, with solid republican vote for Doughran and a scattering free silver vote, the history of two years ago will repeat itself, and the election Of Q republican be assured. Let not the voter deceive himself, for -uch Is the exact status of the con- ditions as they are today. The only sure way for the triu nph of the cause of free silver and the men who cham pion that cause is the democratic way.

A Prophetic Utterance.

In one of Adams supposed speeches
he gives utterance to this prophetic
sentiment: Whatever may be our fate,
be assured that this declaration will
stand. It may cost treasure and it may
cost blood, but it will stand and it will
richly compensate for both. Through
the thick gloom of the present I see the
brightness of the future as the sun in
heaven. We shall make this a glorious,
an immortal day. When we are in our
graves our children will honor it. They
will celebrate it with thanksgiving, with
festivities, with bontires and illumina-
tions. On it's annual return they will
shed tears, not of subsection and slav-
cry, not of agony and distress, but of ex-
ultaticn, of gratitude and of joy

Young Russians Being Educated in Com

Young Russians Being Educated in Com
mercial Trade Schools.
In looking over the field of commerce
the Russians have noted the fact that
there is not one Russian exporting
house in any of the ports of the Black
and AZov seas, the whole business of
exporting in the southern part of the
czar's dominions being in foreign hands.
The reason assigned is that the Rus
slams are not properly fitted with COM
mercial education. Therefore, accord
ing to United States Consul General
Karal, at St. Petersburg, general
movement has begun looking to the es-
adjustment Of special trade schools,
which will educate the Russian mer-
chant to point where he may hold his
own against the specially trained agents
of foreign firms. In these schools,
which are variously supported by NUM-
cipalities, merchants, societies and pri-
vate companies, young men of business
instincts are given a special education
in language, political economy, COM
mercial arithmetic and other branches
Of learning not particularly treated in
colleges, but highly essential to the
success of those who engage in the
worlds commerce. In this the Rus
slams are following the German system
which has as yet no counterpart in the
United States, and which is developing

equipped young business men who arc

stranger in a light suit riding fast in
front of the herd.

Jason strained his eyes, gazing at
the man. Then he turned to watch his
companion jealousy. Did she feel IN
interest in Harlan? He could not tell.
Then something happened. In an in
slant, the twinkling of an eye, the horse
Harlan was riding gave lurch and fell
headlong, his rider partly under it..
Coolly Jason watched them. The horse
was evidently hurt, for it did not rise
neither did the man, though he freed
himself from the saddle.
But why need Harlan rise-a dozen
rods away came the wave of flesh which
was to make of himself and horse an in
distinguishable mass hammered into

most expert riders, mounted on fresh
ponies; again seeming like farmyard in
habitants in their harmlessness.
These, browsing through the ravines
and now feeding quietly while the
herders, sitting on their ponies, awaited
the boss herder's pleasure, were in the
latter wood, and it seemed impossible
that they could become as ungovern-
able as the beasts Of the forest. Even as
the spectators looked, an exhibition was
to be given which would exemplify it
ell.
The boys Of the school were watching
the spectacle and likewise trying to do
something to show their allegiance to
the nation. For the latter purpose they
were provided with several large fire

"Bang!" A thousand heads were
raised. Believing sounds came from
the leaders threats; forefeet stamped
angrily and then came the start! With
heads thrown back, dozen steers
started off on their wild career. Hun
dreds followed them, and soon the herd
was in notion. It became blind, UNI

and comfortable only by adroit side

the SCHOOL, teacher, for she had gone
inside the building.
Before he reached the steps another
matter of interest had attracted atten-
ton. Off to the south, already so near
at hand as to surprise all that it had not
been noticed before, was a cloud Of
dust. It was many rods wide and
reached in long irregular line up from
the plains of the south.

citable individual, and the women were
perceptibly nervous.

the storekeeper. That's the herd from
the ranches we've been lookin' for, an
it ain t a mile away
Silently they gazed. Then, as if a
commander had come out of the midst
of an army, a single horseman was dis
tinguishable in front of the wall of
dust and was evidently advancing on
the schoolhouse group, gaining rapidly
on the herd, now visible, plodding along
behind.
cts the boss herder, comm in to pick
camp" remarked Graham.
He was right.
In few minutes wide-hatted, hand
some cowboy dashed up and dismount-
ed, his big spurs jingling merrily as he
walked.
"Well," he began, with light smile
breaking over his naturally stern fea-
lures. ''are you here to give me recep-
tion?"
Hardly" said Graham, coming for
ward; 1--WE didn't expect you quite
yet"

cattle are coming fast, too. They're

He was right. The herd had advanced
very fast and the settlers were all on
the opposite side of the schoolhouse
watching the approach.
AS the herder stood there beside the
steps, with the bride reins hanging
loosely to his arm, suddenly came 4

she had laughing blue eyes and a pleas
ant face. ....
But the face grew pale and the girl
started back nervously.
'Anna!" said the herder, in voice
which told of deep emotion.
''Jason!" Her words were as strange
ly spoken.
For a moment neither said more;
then the herder went on:
''Why are you out here?''
''Why shouldn't I be? We couldn't
all live on that little Illinois farm, and
wages are better out here on the prai-

Two well-dressed gentlemen, sharp

'But there amt much going on that I

There was something going on, and
each member of the settlement found
out what it was the next morning early
when a small boy on horseback made
the rounds, firing a large torpedo at
every cabin door and announcing to
the startled inmates that fag-raising
would take place at noon out at the
schoolhouse.

two went across the level plains with
the rest toward the tiny schoolhouse,

away. A few cottonwood trees were

lie felt for that instant how easy it
would be to fail but he did not intend to.
Catching one spur safely in the cinch
straps he leaned far over in the opposite
direction until his brawny hand could
sweep the grasses. The cattle were not

But he did not make it. The trem-

Jason's first comment when he reached

not seriously disabled. Some water in

The rescuer, avoiding the crowd that
came forward to praise him for his
bravery, sought the blue-eyed woman
whose heart he thought he now knew
beyond doubt.
"He's all right" Jason began.
"Thanks to you, sir
II don't care to be thanked" bitterly.

clever woman.

people giggled.
In moment all were seated on the
grass in front of the building and the
teacher stood before them. They sang

corner was greatly shocked to see the

Judge Morrow, chairman of the Demo-
crate Fusion Conference Committee, noti-
fed the Republican Silver party that un-
der no circumstances would the Demo-

nominee, Rublee A. Cole, for Lieutenant
Governor.
Cole is an aggressive place seeker and

nominated himself To prevent all IN
reference he adjourned his convention
sine die last night, after having, as a
still further affront, nominated DR.. Powell
for Secretary of State, against the fusaon
agreement.
The Silver party leaders denounce Cole
in vigorous terms. The convention has
been recalled for two o'clock this after
noon and Cole and Powell Will no doubt
be withdrawn and an acceptable name for
Lieutenant Governor will be presented.
The POpuEsts are satisfied with their
share and their nominees and viii meet
at two o'clock to endorse the rest of the
ticket to be nominated by the Demo-
Gratis this morning.
The Democratic Convention was called
to order at 10 o'clock and the opposition
to Cole was made manifest in a num-
Der OF preliminary speeches. The dele
gates then proceeded to fill out the ticket
by making nominations for Treasurer.
