AAOutAs We AcdIU one OF CQem say
something about the west shore being
nearer the mark, whereupon they left
the creek. Pulling out after them
cautiously, we saw them making for
the other side of the river. 4
I rowed on up, skulkink along the
east bank, screened occasionally by
overhanging trees. The boat ahead of
us searched the west bank for awhile;
then we heard no more of it. We felt
no immediate apprehension till Mar
garet, who knew the river we'll, said
that we were approaching ferry. Be-
lieving it would be watched, we dreaded
to attempt to pass it, and paused under
the branches of tree for consultation.
''I'll tell you," said Margaret. "You
skull1 through the woods back of the
ferry to some point beyond it. I'll
pull the boat up the river. If pass the
ferry I'll go to where you strike the
river, and take you in.'
''Where can I meet you?"
She thought moment before reply
ing. "A mile above the ferry there is
an island; midway between the upper
and lower end of this island is a creek" p"

eyes; I'll meet you at the mouth of
the creek"
She changed her seat and handed
her the oars. "Margaret," said, with
bit of tremble in my voice, ''good-by."
mo, no, not good-by. I'll meet you
at the creek, depend upon it,
A few strokes drew her away from
the bank. She stopped, rested one hand
on the handles of the oars, and with
the other waved me an adieu, then
pulled out into the river as gracefully
as water-sprite. I watched her till I
could see her no more; then a feeling of
isolation came over me. My little army
was scattered; the escort had probably
been captured; Punk had gone back
to the confederate camp; and now Mar
garet had parted from me.
Slzirting the base of hill, I crossed
a road, and soon after found myself on
the river bank above the ferry. There,
about a mile ahead, was the island, a
line of low timber extending from the
river westward marking the line of the
creek. I walked briskly till struck
the creek at it's mouth, then looked
about for Margaret.
She was not there.
My heart sank within me. felt sure
that if she had arrived she would make
herself known, but thinking she might
be hiding, waiting for me to give some
signal, I called:
margaret"
No reply. How odd ones voice
sounds calling in the night at nothing!
The stiffness Knocked me.
I sat on a log to rest, and peered
down the river. I wondered what time
it was. 1t must be near morning, but
I had passed through so much since
the evening before that it seemed there
had been two nights instead of one.
I listened for some sound that would
denote pursuit, but could hear nothing.
With such perfect quiet about me, it
seemed impossible that I could be in
imminent danger. I looked up at the
moon. It wore no smile tonight; the
left cheek was caved in, and there was
q ghastly look on it's face.
At last gave up all hope Of Mar
garet's keeping her appointment. ]

ceed on my journey. I dare not wait
longer, for the morning would come,
and it would be sure capture either to
remain where I was or cross by day
light.

PENNY WISE.

The penny wise and pound foolish
policy was illustrated Tuesday by the
collision between the barkentine Echo
and the bark Fortuna. The captain Of
the Echo undertook to take his vessel
out without a pilot, and save, by that
means, half the fee, a sum of $17 %.
AS the Echo crashed into the Fortuna,
the owners of the former vessel Will
have to pay all the damage. The
moral of this is that it is wise to have

The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1900-10-16

John Lind will be reelected governor
of Minnesota in November with a larger
plurality than he had two years ago.
The fusion forces will also elect share
of the state ticket. This last, at least is
the opinion of the men directing the
state campaign. Gov. Lind has grown
in strength during his term of office:
the railroad commissioners, whom the
Republican legislature hoped to get rid
of by making the positions elective, Will
be elected on the strength of the record
they have made, and the whole state
ticket possesses elements of strength
that makes 1t probable winner
A few days ago the Globe
wrote to the chairmen of the
various Democratic county commit
tees in the state, asking for q state
ment of conditions in their respective
territory, with a conservative forecast
of the probable result at the polls. Forty
OF more county chairmen have sent their
answers, which the Globe herewith
prints. 1t will be seen by perusal that
there is not a single county of those
heard from but what is expected to give
Lind a larger vote than he received in
1898 Some of the reports are from Re-
publican strongholds, where Gov. Iind,s
gain is expected to be as marked as
elsewhere
The reports do not include Henneni,
county. Gov. Lind came out of Henne-
pin county two years ago with 5000 votes
to spare, 1t is safe to push these figures
up 1000 this year

fact, the whole state ticket will show a
satisfactory gain with US.
The county ticket. as presented to the
voters by the Democrats of this county,
is made of a personnel that claims no.
tice from all, regardless of their political
afilia tons, and most favorable notice,
too. Every candidate on the ticket is a
man of ability and one having a clean
record, both In his public and private
life. III fact, no party in this country
ever succeeded so we'll before, as far as
securing for the full ticket body of
men to compare with those we this year
ask the people to place in control of the
county affairs.
The Democratic party has never before
in this county felt the perfect harmony
and serious enthusiasm which seems to
pervade all the workers and those hav-
ing the interests of the party at heart.

several hundred rough riders. There
the governor said in paSt:
I'm a sense, this is a peculiar state
contest in Kentucky, but no contest for
the fundamental rights of manhood can
be merely a state contest. Last year
you elected a legislature to choose
senator, and saw a legislature that had
not been elected choose a different sena-
tor, and there the nation comes in with
its rights. 1 b Ne ana believe that the
upper Eouse, like the Flower house, will
decide that no man shall be admitted
to sit within its walls whose election
was attended with fraud and with
threat against the rights of the people.
The danger Of imperialism in this coun-
try comes from ourselves if we do wrong.
Never will we see our government fail
unless we connive at and condone the
outrages upon the ballot, that corrup
ton of the franchise which puts in power
against the win of the people those who
sit in office and deprive the Office of men
honestly elected. I want to speak eSpe-
cially to those Democrats who still re-
main under the influence of a party name
that has lost all its significance. Al
present your leaders are persuading you
to follow them on the ground that they
have cheated in your interest Your

ct if it agrees with their interests, will
