A HAND FULL.

With the prospe It's of Uncle Sam
mixing matters in the Orient with
the other nations, in order to dissect
the Chinese Empire, it looks very
much as if the U. S. had full hand
and if every corner is not protected
then some Of the lively subjects in cur
Uncle's domain will certainly slip
through.
The latest advice from Washington
is to the Effect that American troops
will be shipped to China and will as
sist in the general division Of spoils.
The troops are to be forwarded from
Manila and this will necessitate the
transportation Of additional troops
from America to the Islands. How
long the people will allow the trusts
and wat contractors to deliberately
pull them into this sort Of unsavory
game rests entirely with the ! eople.
Everyone is beginning to look upon
the policy now in existence as imper-
1alistic, and the word expansion has
almost dropped out OF sight. Amer.
lea has been draws into complications
that will keep the rate Of revenue uE
to high Granddaughter many years

enlarged or the game will have to b
dropped.

POLITICAL POINTERS,
TOPICS of Interest Discussed at the
State Capital.

There have been numerous and
some ingenious explanations of the
increase in the fee for inspecting
grain, but no intelligent reason has
been offered, except by those out
side of the grain bureau The real
reason is as plain as a pike-staff.
The department has been over
crowded with utterly incompetent
inspectors. dozens of them being APP
pointed where they were not needed,
the higher-salaried ones being total
ly unacquainted with the grain
trade, relying on subordinates to do
their official work. With a short
crop and the large addition to the
force of inspectors, it was absolutely
inevitable that an increase in the
inspection fee should be made. That
was the one means by which reve-
nue. could be raised to pay the use
less inspectors. OF course, the
proper remedy would have been,
when it was found there was a short
crop, to discharge a large number
of inspectors and employees and cut
down the expenses of the depart
ment. This could not be done, be-

If they went into power again in
1901 it would be repetition of 1893
and the four years following, during
which every material interest of the
country was Frustrated and busi-

The farmers, manufacturers and
producers of every class will see to
it in 1900 that the existing prosper

the realm Of experiment.
The railroad and warehouse COM
mission ticket presented by the Re-
publican party is composed of ele-
ments that should command a
harmonious and enthusiastic support
from every class and quality of
people. It contains a farmer law
yer, and practical railroad man.
These three callings are the ones
which will be most interested in
the work of the commission. A
commission without a farmer would
be an injustice to the agricultural
interests of the State commission

cause the Reform Press bureau had
to be supported. and the Democratic

and the only way to maintain these
institutions was by the system of

CHAPTER XII.
DIGGING A FORTUNE.

Hank Bowers did not for moment
imagine that the big bowlder had fallen
by accident. On the contrary he real
lied it had been purposely rolled there
to prevent his ingress. It followed
then, that he had been seen approach
ing the cliff.
There must be some sort of valley
behind this ere Cliff he concluded. as
he stood measuring the distance to the
top of the obstructing stone with his
eye, IAN that Teller won't keep me out
of it long"
With confident air he retraced his
steps to the opening and removed the
packs from his horses. Then he took
a coil of rope on his arm and entered
the cleft once more.
Bowers had been a cowboy once and
was an expert with the lasso. He had
noticed sharp spur on the upper side
of the barrier, and with deXterous cast
he Topped his rope around it at the first
attempt. Then with an agility really
remarkable in so large a man he drew
himself up about 20 feet, until he was
able to secure foothold and Chamber
over the top.
To his surprise he saw no one, and
without the least sign of fear he
climbed up the short distance remain
ing to be traversed and appeared be-
fore the astonished eyes of the little
group, who were even then discussing
the noise they had heard few mo-
ments before.
''Hello, pards," he said, boldly ap-
preaching our friends. eyer don't seem
oyer'n above glad ter see me, but I'm
here. Now, what's ter be done? amt
very revengeful sort o. a cuss or I'd
ask yer what yer meant by trying ter
squash ne with a. couple o. ton o. rock
jest now"
His impudence kept the others quiet
for a moment, and then TarboX stepped
forward and said, sternly:
"You are not wanted here. You were
kicked out of Ladue's for stealing, and
your present partner is thief and
would-be murderer. Where is he?"
1--we parted company with the low
down skunk" was the ready reply, as
Bowers threw into his voice an excel
lent assumption of Indignation. 'sHe
owned up this mornin' that he'd stole
them papers and dassent show his head
here fer fear the man what owned 'em
might hev passed us while we was off
the trail. TOLD him ter git out an leave
my company, and he's gone back ter
Dyea. That's straight"
His manner was SO earnest that he
made an impression and was quick to
notice it. Before anyone had time to
reply he went on:
Its true / was kicked out O. Joe
Ladue's, but was drunk an took some
dust from chap what was drunker'n

that he was selling goods below cost and that
