The horse could save you; I am too

1.-THE horse could save you; am too
manJ.'
Tho Texan comprehended her mean
ing. snd in that moment of peril ne
realized that the indian girl loved him.
Fearing that she might execute her
suggestion and sacrifice herself to save
him, he instantly grasped her in his
arms, and it was in that moment OF
peril that their tr.,- was plighted.
The horse came upon smooth ground
and in a short time ne began to get
further away from the herd.
Right there" says the Texan, Il
made up my mind to love that little
Indian girl forever, and l resolved
mat, if we escaped the danger that
pursued us, would do everything in
my power during life to make her
happy"
The noble horse continued to in
crease the distance between his heels
and the sharp horns of his pursuers
until he again encountered rough
ground.
Ward at this moment for the first
time, thought of his pistol, and huc-
riedly drawing the weapon he poured
a stream of lead into the faces OF the
cattle.
He was gratifed to see that the pro-
gress of the herd was slightly retard-
ed by the bodies of the several ami
mails that he killed.
Again the heroic girl suggested the
idea of sacrificing herself to save the
man she loved.
"If the horse falls" she said, you
must lie close to him and the cattle
will jump over you"
at was evidently her intention" p"
says Ward, in referring to the matter,
ito stand on the body of the horse in
case he fell and make an effort to
frighten the steers while l crouched by
the side of our exhausted steed."
The horse had no notion of falling.
Once more his heels came in contact
with clear ground and he carried his
burden in triumph to the brink of
little stream
Ward turned his head and with
shout of eXultation he threw his h
in the faces of the leaders of the stal
peded herd as the horse plunged in
the water that the flames could H.
cross. The Texan knew that the h.
steers would stop to cool their parche
tongues, and when the horse ha
crossed the river he pressed kiss C
the Indian cheek and whispered I
her:
you have saved my life, and it b.
longs to you
And he will keep his word.-Omah

that eyes ut that age would not be able
to stand the light. / remember, also,
placing an easy chair ready for the sit

another gentleman, and announced the ar

the main policies of the Government ex-
lists in direct contradiction of the theory
of majority rule. II is true that the Elec-
tOral College system has seated n PTesi-
dent who received less than majority of
all the votes cast and, in that sense. the
President may also be said to represent
the Federal idea of Government by States;
but the possible difference in the proper
tions of the majority and minority rela-
tiOns in the Federal College is so small
as to be unimportant except as to princi-
pie, while, as I have already pointed out,
a reversal Of tie principle of majority rule
in the comnositiou Of the Senate is So gross
as to be almost ludicrouS.
The all-pOwerful position occupied by
the Senate today corresponds to the the
ory propounded to Thomas Jefferson by
John Adams, the first presiding officer of
that body:
'.No Republic can ever be of any dura-
ton without IL Senate. and a Senate deep
ly and strongly rooted strong enough to
bear up against all popular storms and
passions"
If the Nation is to be governed on the
principle that each State is to be equal
in power at Washington regardless of its
population. wealth or extent of territory
if the Federal idea is TO Supplant the Ma
tional idea. il the policies of the country
are to be shaped by the States as States
and not by a majority of the whole peo-
ple-if that is to be the governing idea
in our political life, the Senate is our eta
del.

sent to the right, taking position also near

battalion, also dismounted, and concealed
by the thickets on the hills to the left,
succeeded in securing a position near the
waters edge without attracting the en-

Lieut Conrad, with two mounted COM

commander saw Conrad's squadron trot-

combatants were then so close that they
could look into each others eyes. The

thickets along the margin of the creek,

seriously annoying Conrad's charging
squadron, but when the Federal detach-
ment galloped down to the other eXtrem-
ity of the bridge Conrad was suddenly
confronted by grave 'predicament." In
that emergency he did the best possible
thing Promptly halting, he threw one
company into line, keeping the other in
column behind it, and opened fire on the
Fcderals, they unhesitatingly returning it.
Just then Lieuts. Welsh and Lea, with a
dsnounted squadron, crossed the creek on
the extreme Confederate left, the water
coming up to the mems shoulders, and at
tackled the enemy in flank and rear.
At the same time, Gen. Vaughn ordered
forward a piece of artillery, which sent
shells over the heads OF the Confederates
into the Federal ranks. Perceiying that
the artillery, and the movements of Lea
and Welsh beyond the stream had some
what dismayed the enemy, Lieut.. Conrad
charged across the bridge with the COM
pany that had remained mounted and in
column, the other quickly remOunting and
following. The Federal detachment near
the bridge, no longer disputing the pas
sage, wheeled and gallOped back to the
main body, the entire force retreating,
rather hurriedly.
Duke led the pursuit, chasing the foe
TO Bulls Gap, three miles away. OF
course, the young General and his men
were much elated 1t was the first ''fa
nous little victory" they had achieved
since passing through the valley of humil-
iation and the slough of dependency.
Gen. Vaughn, coming up and hearing
nothing of ''Cerro Gordo" Williams, de-
cIined to attack the Federals in their ref
uge" the strength of the mountain fast
ness being well known to him, nor did
Gen. Duke and his cavalrymen manifest
any desire to charge the Federais in their
stronghold.
