PIERCE COUNTY DEMOCRATs.
Wallace and the warhorees to Fight In
the Convention Today.


Tacoma. April io.-SpeciaL-The Demo-
cratic comfy convention for the election
of delegates 10 the state convention In
this city April II will assemble at Ger
mania hall at II o'clock tomorrow. I'm
less the garhorse wing OF the local Dem
ocraey succeeds in its Intention OF forcing
q silver resolution through and thus up
setting the plans OF the Wallace forces,
Hugh Wallace will be Endorsed for dele
gate TO the national convention at Chi
caso. The indications are that the con-
yention viii be dominated from the start
by Eallace's Federal brigade, which 10
properly organized for the fray.
The local Democrats are all guessing
what the national committeeman will do
il the state convention passes q resolu-
ton instructing the delegation to vote
only for candidates who are known TO DO
friendly to silver, If not advocates Of free
coinage. 1t looks as if Wallace viii have
to face the silver issue twice-in the coun-
~ tomorrow and in the state convention
Tuesday. The anti-Wsliace forces are
building their hopes on the country dele
gates, who may be inclined TO balk in case
the convention does not adopt q resolI-
ton fayorfng tho free coinage Of silver.
But IL the silver specter Is downed in the
county convention. Ii will doubtless reap
pear in the state convention on Tuesday,
ana may create trouble IL the poStmaStefS
and customs house employees are not thor
oughly rehearsei in the maneuvers they
are expected to carry out. 1t is entirely
probable that the proxies in the state
convention will silence forever the dele
gates who will ask that the delegation
to Chicago be instructed for silver.
Wallace would in all probability accept
election on free silver platform. but
would refuse it IL the convention instruct
ed the delegation for silver.
The administration delegates have been
casting about today for a suitable man
for chairman. One of the younger mem
beers of the party Will likely get the
coveted honor, and in this connection there
is some talk of Michael Dowd. a clerk
under Postmaster A. Il. Case. Stephen
OBrien has also been mentioned.
Although the Wallace faction claimed all
except one or two precincts in the prima-
res last night, the Indications are that
in many cases the delegates elected are
favorable to Wallace only in the event
that no other candidate Of suitable parts
and otherwise acceptable. Is placed in
nomination. The name of Col. c. w.
Griggs has been brought out as a likely
man for the place and II there Is any,
thing approaching an even division OF
strength In the convention he will proba-
bly, develop enough following to make the
contest interesting.

CHAPTER XIV.


The Twelfth spent its New Years
day hot on the Indian trail. Into the
foothills it wound, tortuous and full Of
peril, for from every projecting point,
from rock to rock and crest to crest, the
warrior rear guard poured their fire on
the advancing line. Charges were fruit
less The nimble ponies of the Indians
bore their riders swiftly out of harms
way, and only among the charging force
did casualties occur. Still, Fenton had
hung like bulldog to his task, hoping
before nightfall to catch up with the
main body and the moving village, then
to hem it in. Numerically he was lit
tie better off than the Indians, as 80
Indians can surround 500 troopers much
more effectively than 500 troopers can
surround SO mounted warriors. Through
Bat and others he had vainly striven to
communicate with Big Road, to assure
him no harm would be done; that all
that was necessary was for him to re-
turn with his people under escort of the
regiment to the reservation. Up to
p. IN. not shot had been fired by the
Twelfth, even in response to sope-
times CALLING fusillade from the Indians.
by that time several men had been un-
horsed and two or three wounded, and
the thing was getting exasperating; yet,
was it worth keeping up, for Bat and
other scouts declared the fleeing village
to be less than three miles ahead now,
and, with that overhauled, the warriors
could be brought to bay well south OF
the mountains, and to the accomplish
ment Of this, without sacrificing men or
horses to any great extent, Fenton was
bending every energy when overtaken

the order in which they should be read,
but the only ones which much concern
ed him now were from department
headquarters A new king who knew
not Joseph, new general with whom
Fenton had never CHANGED to serve, was
there in command, and he, coming a
comparative stranger to the community,
knew little of the merits Of the politi.
clans by whom he was speedily besieged.
They were present in force, armed with
letters and dispatches by the SCORE from

along the Platte, and Fenton was prao-
tically unrepresented. 1t was in no spir-

loomed up at the front and in moment
was merged in the advancing line.
"What is it, sergeant? What news
have your" asked the young platoon
commander. .,.
"They're off, sirl A whole gang of
old folks and women on ponies and
travois has started across the Platte.
The warriors are all there yet. You'll
hear Big Road shouting In minute.

know. Who else are out at the front on
watch?"
"Only Rorke and two or three Of the
Indian troop, sir. They are taking care
Of themselves, though"
movement ceased. Halt, halt!' were
the low toned orders of the noncommis
stoned officers dispersed along the line,
and under the twinkling stars, dim,
ghostly and silent, the extended rank OF
riders seemed as one man to rein in and
wait. Here and there an impatient
charger began to paw the snow, and
others shifted suspiciously and cooked
their pointed ears in the direction Of the
unseen village. Some young troopers,
tremulous with excitement and cold
combined, began to slap their fur glovcd
hands on breast or thigh and had to be
sternls called to order. Presently a
muffled horseman came riding up from
the rear, a trumpeter in his tracks.
"That's right, Martin. You did we'll

to Colonel Fenton. He had wired to the
agency before we pulled out. "
Cant we turn 'em back without his
authority, sir?'
"No, even when we know they mean

II don't understand" said Martin,
having some vague theory that the ILL
ness Of Miss Farrar was at the bottom
Of Ormsby's inability to take part in
the promised chase. II didn't suppose
anything could keep him from taking a
hand in soldier service"
"Well, that's just it. Those fellows
in the Seventh are as punctillous on
point Of duty as any man we know in
the army. Ormsby promised to be back
with his company for some review or
ceremony within this week. He's got
to go. They've telegraphed to remind
him, and he has just time, barring &C.
cident, to make the trip"
