THE RIBBON GIRL.

Back in Two Rivers Millie Duncan
pectation that her lines would fall in
pleasant places. But a bolt came out
of the blue. Miles father died sud
denlt, and just at the wrong time. not
only for himself, but for his family.
She faced the necessity for earning her
own living, and, leaving the younger
children and her mother to depend up
on the small income that remained to
them, she made a bold entrance into
Chicago-which cared nothing about
her boldness, but only beloved at her
like an angry bull. II Mile was
frightened she did not show it. She
found an ugly little room. made 1t as
attractive as she could. cooked her own
coffee mornings, contented herself with
te cent lunCheons, and INDUCED in a
hearty meal at dinner time. For this
function-fOr such 1t was to Mile
she made a careful toilet and entered
the dining room of the rather fashion,
able boarding house with the air of a
princess who was amusing herself by
an experience among the common peo-
pie. This was her one luxury-it was
in this fashion that she kept a hold
upon ~sociability. This gave her cheer
for her work and sustained her viva
city. It amounted in fact to a neces-
sity.
Now n of the greatest Affections
that had come to her at a time when
Affections seemed to be pouring thick
II fast upon her was leaving the vi
cinity where Allen barrow lived. They
were not ~sweethearts; they had not
seen much of each other. But it had
been his presence that had made a
party seem really festive to her. 1t
was the meeting with him casually on
the quiet streets of Two Rivers that
had caused her heart to leap. 1t was
he she thought of when she put OF a
new gown. Or, If she did anything
unworthy of her best self, it was he she
remembered, blushing at her W base
ness. If she was generous or coura-
geous in any unusual way she turned
to thoughts OF him with joy, thinking
that he would be pleased If he knew.
She had not said good-by to him when
she left home. She had not the desire
to burden him with the details OF her
misfortune. How could he understand,
who had always lived an easy, luxuri-
GUS life, what responsibilities she had
been called upon to face? How could
he appreciate the sinking of the heart
which she felt in leaving the refined,
easy life, the books, the lazy hours at
the piano, the charming circle Of
friends, for the work and %friendless-
ness that a poor girl must know in
Chicago? She put her dreams bravely
behind her, therefore, and left without
a word of farewell.
She was rather glad when she found
that her work In the great dry goods
house, where the influence Of friends
had secured her a position, was to be
among the ribbons. She rioted in the
color about her, and, making up her
mind that anything that was worth do
ing at all was worth doing well, she
not only studied to be most assiduous
in her service to those who came to
purchase, but she took the greatest
pride in arranging her stock attrac-
lively. So original were the fashions
in which she put forth the bolts of
cleaning satin ribbons that it was
much noticed. A gruff floorwalker
ventured to compliment her. The

AN OBLIGING

In a speech in the house Mr.. De Ar
mond, of Missouri, prophesied that if
the new financial bill passes the repub,
lican party will be Overwhelmingly de,
feated in 1900. 1t is generous of Mr..
De Almond to give the world such
timely warning of an event that would
please him extremely. Before a cam
paign democratic managers frequently
point out what would be the best plat,
form and who the best candidate for
the republican side. From their point
of view the advice is not without
weight, though history gives no ac-
count of its acceptance. When Bryan
addressed the convention hat nomin,
ated him he said free silver would car
ry every state in the Union. 1t failed.
however, to win enough to prevent an
emphatic defeat. Should .clinching the
gold standard in the laws be the road
to democratic victory and a reversal OF
the verdict of 1896 it is odd that a mar
who would be delighted with both re-
suits shakes his finger w%arningly in
public in discussing the subject. Per
haps the orator spoke as a business
man, momentarily forgetting that he
was a free coinage democrat.
II Mr.. De Almond has been following
the elections since 1896, and no doubt
he has, he can hardly have failed to no
tice that the most distinct declarations
OF the gold standard have been attend.

The fact was decidedly apparent In Ore

election. and in no case has a straight

In Iowa last month the republican ma

Under a republican administration the
gold standard is secure and unques-
toned, but if there is any doubt on OBJ
security in the existing laws relating to
the currency the republicans intend to
make the measurement of values in
gold an absolute and undeniable fact.

A NEW DANGER.

A recent decision of the supreme
court of the United States practically
declares that the rights of perhaps a
dozen steamboats, are paramount to the
vast empire dependent upon irrigation.
The case is from Texas. An irriga-
in the Rio Grande river for the recla-
nation of certain lands was enjoined
the contention being that the diversion
of the water would interfere with navi-
was made, the opinion being by Justice
Brewer, n 1t was held that If il
could be shown that the diversion OF
the water for the purposes of irrigation
interfered with navigation, then the
government could step in and prevent
1t. This decision Of the supreme court,
carried to its logical conclusion, would
prevent irrigation in all of the noun
tain states, or at least throw the en-
tire system under federal control, for
the reason that the water of every
stream and every %irrigating ditch in
the mountain states is fairly ~discharg,
ed into a n%avigable stream before
reaching the ocean.
There is an inside history to this
case which would. make splendid read
ing were all the facts brought to the
surface. Men high in power had per.
sonal axe to grind and for the graft.
f1cation of their own selfish greed for
wealth they were entirely willing to
sacrifice the interests of the people of
the arid west. 1t will not do to say
that we would be far better OFF were this
entire system placed under the control
Of the federal government. Nine
tenths of the people and representatives
OF this nation know nothing whatever
of the conditions which exist, or of the
necessities of the mountain states. We
have now established a system which
is working out to the advantage of the
people and to have it overthrown and
supplanted by an entirely different sys-
TEN would entail no end of litigation
expense and injustice.
The control of the water must be
vested in the state and prior a%ppropria,
tion must give the better right. Even
II a few small steamboats, are affected
and this is a matter of doubt, the loss
entailed would be in the thousands
whereas If the people of the states de-
pendent upon irrigation are to be re,
stricted in the use of water for the sole
purpose of floating these few steam.
boats, their losses would be incalcul-
able and the future reclamation of the
vast areas of arid lands in all this
mountain region would be retarded for
all time.
II is with a feeling of pride that The
Republican learns hat the department
OF agriculture is in opposition to any
scheme whereby the control of irriga-
ton will be thrown under federal con
troll or restricted in the interests OF
steamboats,. But eternal vigilance Is
the price of liberty, and the people OF
the great west will have to fight this
new danger, for it is a menace to their
very existence.

BODY REDUCED TO A PULP.
Horrible Fate Of Michael Smith Of
Woodlawn.

Horrible Fate Of Itch Smith Of
Woodlawn.
Michael Smith, a farmer living near
Woodlawn, met q horrible death last
evening about $50, near a crossing
over the Union Pacific, one and one
half miles northwest of West Lincoln.
His body was ground to a pulp by
Union Pacific passenger train No. 43.
He had been in the city during the day
ana was on his way home. Evidences
OF the wreck after the train had
passed indicated that Smith had at
tempted to cross the railroad track at
u point eight rail lengths from the
road crossing, and that in doing so h
wagon had tipped over and the box,
heavily loaded with lumber, had
pinned him underneath it, the body
and boyload of lumber falling across
the railroad track. The train was
running at full speed and struck the
on the track. The body of the
unfortunate driver was reduced to a
shapcless mass. The engineer of the
train, Richard Rowley, did not see the
wrcckagc on the track until he struck
it. The train was stopped, an investi-
made, and portions of the body
We're found. The train was then
packed to Lincoln and word sent to
the coroner. Undertaken Walton G..
Roberts and Coroner r. A.. Holyoke
went out soon.aftcr and picked up the
body, bringing the remains to Lincoln.
