''Take Morton into the guardroom till
get back, sergeant, and let him warm
himself thoroughly. Don't put him
with the prisoners till RETURN" and so
saying he fastened away. Gordon, his
friend and adviser, had left camp and
gone visiting over in the other divi-
sion. The lights at general headquar-
tiers were turned low. Even now, after
having heard proofs of the innocence
of the accused soldier, Gray knew that
it was useless to appeal to the colonel.
He could not understand, however, the
feverish-almost insane Impotence of
the lad for immediate release. Another
day ought not to make so great diff
ference. What could be the reason
if it were not that, though innocent of
the robbery of the storehouse, or of
completely in the sale of stolen goods,
some other crime lay at his door which
the morrow might disclose? All the
loyalty of Delta Sig was stretched to
the swapping point as Gray paused ir-
resolute in front of the adjutant's tent,
his quest there unsuccessful. The
sergeant major and sorely badgered
clerk were working late over some
regimental papers-things that Nor
ton wrote out easily and accurately.
Il suppose, sir, it's no use asking to
have the prisoner sent up here under
guard" said that jewel of a non-com-
missioned officer. yet the colonel will
be savage if these papers amt ready.
1t will take US all night as things are
going" .u
Gray shook his curly head. "Go ask,
if you like, but-Morton's in no shape
to help you"
HAS he been drinking, sir?" said the
sergeant major, in surprise. Il never
knew him -.
''Oh, it isn't that" said Gray, hastily,
.'only he's-he's got-other matters Oh
his mind! Bring me his overcoat. He
said it was in his tent" and the young
officer jerked his head at the patch Of
little "a" tents lined up in the rear of
those of the officers.
'Get Morton's overcoat and take it
to him at the guardhouse," snapped the
staff sergeant to the clerk. "Be spry
now, and no stopping on the way
back" he added, we'll aware how much
in need his assistant stood of creature
comfort of some surreptitious and for
hidden kind. The man was back in
q moment, the coat rolled on his arm.

The governor general Of Canada, while
enjoying drive in the keen, frosty air, met
an Indian who was very lightly clad. From
mere curiosity he stopped the sleigh when

moments hesitation, answered by asking:
"How your face not cold?"
The governor general explained in his

Paper teeth may be fine, but we will venture
that most people prefer their own, and this

The remarkable fact has been noticed that the volume of American shipments
 to China remains about
 OUR the same as before the EASTERN ports were closed by
 POLICY. war in some and fear If
 it in others. This means that We are sending military supplies equal to our entire peaceful export to China. The fact is explained by frag- ments of commercial news from the west. Russia and Japan are buying supplies for their forces in Chicago. and Germany is making contracts in San Francisco for the supply of her cxpe- dition. It seems probable that most of the allied forces will be fed, clothed ard equipped from this country. This means not only a great trade now, but the basis of a greater when the empire shall have been opened. Then we shall have the market of the foreign garrisons as well as our share of the peoples. Most of our present great trade in the north has grown up since the Russians went there. It is a sound instinct that causes our government to keep on good terms with all the allies as well as the Chinese.

NOT so MAD AS HE SEEMED.

A story, not merely amusing but ab- solutely true, Is told by Sir Wemyss Reid in the Nineteenth Century. It relates to an incident observed by a distinguished public man, who has ris- en high in the service of the state.
 On the day on which he first entered certain British government office as junior clerk he was a witness of a scene which filled him with amazement. An elderly man who was seated at an- other desk in the same room suddenly rose from his seat, wragged his chair to the fireplace, and, seizing the poker, attacked the offending piece of furni- ture with what seemed to be maniacal fury
 When he had broken a leg off the chair his passion seemed to be exhaust ed He flung the damaged chair into a corner of the room. and getting anoth- CT chair, calmly resumed his work as if nothing had happened.
 The junior clerk, on leaving his work that afternoon, ventured, with the hes itation of a novice. to ask another clerk who had been a witness Of the scene, what it meant. ''Is MT. x. subject to attacks of this kind?" he asked
 MT. X.," was the response, there was nothing the matter with him. You see one of the castors had come off the chair. and the treasury won't re- place castors. They will repair nothing less serious than a broken leg. So he broke one of the legs, and now he will get the castor put on again"

.ssssosesessssssssssssssss :. THE FAULT FINDER j:

I have observed in the discussion of
 bond question that some of the cons
 have advanced the idiotic argument | that the farmers, the actual users of
 water, irrigationists educated by ex- | perience, have not been adequately
 represented in the interviews printed | in this paper It is assumed by these | antagonists that the views of practi- | cal irrigator on the subject of water | storage would be of greater weight | than those of men who only sell calico
 nails, codfish and pay taxes on town
 property and perhaps ranch property | but do not know how to run water in
 ditch to the best advantage.
 | %*s&
 I imagine that the opinions of the | farmers on this bond question would
 be just as weighty as those of the town | taxpayers, and that in good time and
 as soon as possible their views will be | obtained. It has not been long since | this series of interviews was begun. | The business men and townsmen were | taken first, no doubt for the reason that | they were more accessible and in the
 nature of things the opinions of the l farmers will be sought at the earliest | moment.
 | But all this has nothing to do with | the matter I have in mind. I am un-
 able to comprehend why a man having | a knowledge of practical irrigation | should be a more competent authority upon water storage enterprise involv- | ing an expenditure of 8, 900, 900 than a | business man who knows nothing about | irrigation except this important fact
 that land in the Salt River valley is
 absolutely worthless without water,
 and that the less water it has The
 nearer it approaches worthlessness. | Everybody in Arizona knows that; even
 the Indians are painfully aware of it.
 I have a farmer friend, a man of in
 telligence and education. He under
 stands methods of irrigation. but he
 has in his employ a Mexican who. he
 has frequently told me, is the most | skillful irrigator in the territory. He
 can make a given number of inches of
 water cover more acres of land than | any other man in the Salt River val | ley. As an irrigator he is far superior
 to his employer. The employer is iu-
 terested in this bond question: he is
 gathering all available data bearing
 upon it. walking around it and looking
 at it from all sides. but he has not yet
 consulted his Mexican irrigator upon

 We are forced to assume that there is at least a shadow of intelligrn.:s guiding the editorial columns of the Times, and if that be so. upon what grounds can that paper base the su2@ sestion that it would be wise for the people of this valley to wait for the government to come to their relief?

The whole movement is based on the cor rect assumption that it is the duty of the government to aid in reclainling the "arid lands" This has been the keynote of the Times hysteria. Even that paper could hardly claim seri- ously that congress would listen to an
 
 tied and as prosperous as the Sa,t River valley. Imagine the reception which congress would give to q re- quest of that kind. Congress would say: Tt is a fac5, we believe, that the Salt River valley, notwithstanding the difficulty of a shortage in the water supply, is the most prosperous section of the United States" The comm; rtee bearing the request for "aid" would have to reply Yes, our valley hls rln equal as an agricultural region in the world. We have an assessed valua- ton of ten million dollars, and p:cp erty actually worth thirty millions" " The gentlemen who hold the nation g purse strings would respond, Gentle men of the Salt River valley, w. can do nothing for you.

With the vast wealth which you have already created, and in view of the enormous wealth whl .il will be created in your valley by d reservoir. why don't you put your OWL good money into the scheme?

case of LeGrand r. Anderson VS.. George
M. Lyle has occupied the entire time and
is still in progress. The plaintiffs case
is based on certain promissory notes on
which he claims there is due to him, in

The defendant insists that the notes have
been fully paid, that there is nothing due
thereon, and this is the issue to be tried
and which the jury will have to decide,
the sole question in the case being the
payment or non-paymert of the notes
given by the defendant and introduced
in evidence. Attorney Boudeman of
