CHAPTER K.

Just as first call for tattoo was sound
ing (no one having thought to tell the
orderly trumpeter that, both on account
Of the holiday and the unexpected duty
for the garrison, "the rules were sus-
pended") a long column Of cavalry
wound away through the simmer Of
the snowy moonlight and disappeared
from sight along the flats below the
post. Fenton and Wayne, with four of
the six troops, had ridden down stream
for ten mile march. His object was to
bring Big Road, with his little village,
warriors, women, children, ponies, dogs.

reservation of Fort Frayne. Once there
even cowboy dare not molest them and
no self appointed sheriff could impose
his authority. With all Thorpe's blus-
ter Fenton felt reasonably assured that
even in so turbulent corner of Wy
oming the hustlers could not muster in
force sufficient to warrant an attack
that night.
Big Roads braves were few in num-
Der, but they were fighters to man.
Their sins, like those of all their tribe
and kindred tribes, had long since been
forgiven them by Uncle Sam, and it
was not for his vassals to keep up the
feud. Rare, indeed, are the cases when
the soldier has long cherished grudge
against the Indian. The Twelfth had
fought like devils after the murder, as
they could but regard it, of their beloved
colonel, but when the opposing band had
| finally surrendered and accepted the sit
uation all rancor speedily died away.
It seemed to the regiment, therefore,
perfectly natural and obvious thing
that it should hasten forth to protect
this little remnant from the revenge of
the whites. Laramie Pete, with all his
faults, was frontier hero whose popu-
larity was second only to that of Thorpe,
| and at the latter's call, from far and
near, cowboy, ranchman, miner and
prospector would hasten to join forces
| under his leadership, end in "a hours or
less he could count on 500 determined
followers, fearless as they were reckless.
! and defiant of any law that was not of
their own devising.
In the selection Of his troops Fenton
had been governed by the time honored
| tenets Of the Twelfth. Leale's men,
having returned but a month before
from a tour Of detached service, escort
ing government survey through the
lands Of the Shoshones. far to the west,
were therefore the ones designated to
remain in charge Of the post, being sup
ported by what was left Of the so called

Graice's sodden face. ''You, you brag-
gart and blackguard-you coward, who
left poor Crawford's s wife without de-
fender. You cur, who stole the last cent
he had and then betrayed him to the
Indians; you liar, who brag Of being an
officers son and dare not own your own
name!
''Stand backp' he fiercely cried as
the corporal once more strove to place a
hand upon his shoulder. "I've no quar-
rel with you, Reddy, or with this other
poor devil, who can only do as he's Or
dered, but I'd die in my tracks before
that white livered hound should escort
me off this post. Out of the way!" he
cried, and with one magnificent bound
reached his horse, leaped into his saddle,
and dashed few yards away. Then,
whirling about, he swung his hat in
air: Good night to you, gentlemen.
Merry Christmas to you, one and all.
You've got one of those bloody murder
ers here, SO keep him if you choose, but
We'll have the other three before the
sun rises in spite Of all the thugs and
thieves like that fellow you can muster
in the cavalry"
And with a parting malediction at
Graice and lash of the stinging quirt,
he whirled his broncho and dashed away
at the gallop.
"Damn that fellow!'' said Fenton.

There's no help for it, conference.-the

quietly, then started back involuntarily
at the expression of amazement and
wrath that shot suddenly into the cow

he was in petulant mood bordering on
evaporation when admitted at the chap
lain's and ushered into the parlor,
where Kitty still lay clasped in the
mothers arms
She scrambled to her feet the instant
he entered and began an energetic out
burst, but the sight Of his woebegone
face checked her suddenly. Mrs. Farrar
read instantly the cause Of his gloom,
and her eyes frightened with rejoicing.
''Willy, my boy, then you don't have
to go?''
''Don't have to go!' was the wrath
full answer. "Don't have to go! I've
been on my knees to that stony hearted
old rip for the last ten minutes, and he
won't let me co.
"God bless him!'' were the mothers s
fervent words. t'He knew - he we'll

social equilibrium. II won't have you

Some one who signs himself "Repub
lican" writes to the Elizabeth City
Carolinian as follows:
TN your paper of September %. you
have a clipping from The PROGRESSIVE
FARMER which states that the fees
from the Secretary of State have ins
creased $50 per centum since Mr..
Thompson took the fiji 3e, and why's
Doubtless this increase is due to a
larger business, but the fiji ;e has been
loosely conducted for many years past.
while cleaning the off q this sum
mer Mr.. Thompson found $4,000 in
checks, money orders, postal notes
and coin, but there was no shortage
charged in any of the books. In fact,
until September, 1895, when the pros
pect of the fiji e falling into our hands
became serious, no ledger had ever
been opened in this flee, which handles
more money than any other in the
State, save the Treasurer's.
''In the same connection it ia inter.
esting to know that $40, 600 In OLD bonds
have been found in the Treasury De
partment, Of which no entry could be
found.
These offices are in good hands now,
and we shall have no more loose bust,
ness. A change was needed"
Here is some food for thought. II
all the facts in the case were known,
there might be also some good political
food for the ''unterrif1ed Democracy"
Evidently there has been some inter.

address recently delivered by him at
Brooklyn, N. Y, struck some tender
spots and the ~plutocrats are once more
raging at this fearless Governor. Gov.
AlVgeld said:

the higher courts been on the eide of

every where the opponents and defend

"Since the war the higher courts
have, al a rule, occupied the same posi-
ton toward the corporations and
money power that they formerly did
toward slavery, and for thirty years
they have been regarded as cities of
refuge by corporations. In some re.
spects they have done more to bring
about the present unhappy conditions
than has Congress, for Congress did
occasionally pass a measure intended
for the protection and relief of the PEG
pie. But almost every one of these
acts has been killed by judicial con-
struction, At the same time the law
has been strained to deprive the humble
man Of his liberty, to defeat trial by
jury, and to destroy the safeguards
which the Constitution has thrown
around the citizen. The darkest fore
bodings of Jefferson have been realized.
But these things should not dis

lifelong continued drouth has caused
many destructive fires in Minnesota,
Wisconsin and surrounding States and
North Carolina now adds another to
the long list of CONGREGATIONS.
On last Thursday, Durham was Wis
tied by the most destructive fire in it's
history, with the possible exception of
the one in 1885. The burned district
covers an area Of eight acres and the
loss is estimated It about $500, 600. The
drouth seems to have cut quite q figure
in this fire also, for the failure of the
fire company 80 get it under control at
oncs is attributed to the insufficient
water supply.
The fire originated in the Bass to-
bacco warehouse at 1928 a. m, and
quickly spread to surrounding build
ings.
Soon after IL o'clock the Raleigh fire
department. was telegraphed for, and
IN So minutes after leaving Raleigh
they were at the scene of the fire. Tnev
arrived too late to render anv assist
ance, however, as the fire having de-.
stroyed prizs houses, eight
dwellings and scores of tons of to
OaccO, was at last under control. The
fire originated from an engine spark.
More than half Of the loss was covere
by insurance.

MR. RocKeFnLLRR,s wEALTH

Everybody likes to read of farming
big sums of money. The story of Mr..
Jno. D. Rockefeller's life and vast
wealth, TO the average man reads like
an Oriental fairy tale. SILL it is we'll
to remember that there r two sides
to this picture. This vast river of
wealth that empties itself into the
C frs Of this modern CrOesuS must
somewhere have a source.
Wealth must be produced; people
are divided into two classes-prOduceTs
and consumers OF wealth. When the
wealth OF the consuming class is
increased il is plain to all that
tae wealth Of the producing class
must be decreased in q CORE
Spending degree. Turn thus from
the vast wealth OF the Rocketeller's
and see b other side OF the picture.
Look at our North Carolina iaborers
who make less per day than does MIR.
Rock efeller per second, Look at the
thousands VINO must every day work
so many mInuses ~longer-strIke so
many more bio VS. at the anvil, or plow
so much longer in the fields, in order
thai Mr. Rockefeller's wealth may be
increased as iJ has been done Ia the
past.
There's something wrong hsre-some.

Not long since IN a Western school a

A TRU9T

"Peaceably, if you can ;DrcibIy, if
you must" The American people can
now keep trusts under control with their
ballots, if they will. But gradually,
slowly, but surely, capital is tighten,
ing the chains that hold labor captive,
and the time may c0me-we do not say
it uiU, we hope the American people
have enough manhood and horse ems
to prevent iG-bu5 the time may come
when they will be compelled to act
forcibly.
A gigantic combination of trusts-in
other words, the formation of one uni
versal trust, is now talked OF. We do
know whether Or not there is any
truth in the statement. We hopeGhere
ls not. But at any rate there is food
for thought IN the suggestion. Re
mem berlng the formation Of such q
trust is not impossible, is it not well to
consider what would happen in Ease
suco a trust should be formedG Here
are the names of those which, it is

United States Leather Company.
American Sugar Refining Company.
National Lead Company.
United States Rubber Company.
American Tobacco Company.
American Spirits Manufacturing
Company.
American Cotton Oil Company.
New York, Chicago and Bay State
Gas Companies.
Consider for a moment the great in
fuence which each one of these com
Dinations exerts in it's respective field,
and again imagine If on can, the vaster
influence which would be exerted were
they to merge their identity into one
colossal wholel The capital stock of
these companies reaches the enormous
sum of $685., 600. 600.
Again We say that we hope that the
American people now realize the i'm
portance Of getting trusts under their
control. An exchange fears they do
not, and In speaking or this proposed
combination, says:
There is only n way to break the
prejudice of the people for the existing
social anarchy-and that is by the pres
sure becoming SO hard that they can't
stand it. Let 1t come, let 1t come.'
But we hope this is unnecessary. Al
ready the great common people are be
ginning to find out that they must quit
fighting each other and must get to
gether. Where are you, reader9 Are
you still in the old ruEs, fighting over
tariff and other insignificant issues, or
do you think that the laboriDg masses
should get together into n invlncible
whole to fight their oppressors4
