The War Continuous.

1he universal struggle OF man
against manor, more pitifnl yet,
Of man and woman against each
other-for the opportunity to earn
a living, is incessart, For it are
no Hague conferences, peace com
missions, protocols, treaties. Once
in while it flares out in explosions
of dynamite, in trains wrecked and
mills burned; III ''firm repression
of violcncc,' which usually means
the shooting of innocent bystand-
ers by deputy sheri(fs or militia
men. Then the attention of the
country is aroused, and there is
much discussion of the conditions
of that particular point Of the
world wide battle line. Arbritra
ton, perhaps, is invoked, IL deci-
sion awarded, and both parties set
tie back sulIcnly to work and pre-
parations for another contest. Blu.
the strike and the lock out are only
phases of the universal warfare
of business and industry, and re-
spite from either or from both no
more portends industrial peace
than the somnolencc of Mount
Pelce indicates that the great cen
tral fire that gnaws at its heart as
we'll as that of Aetna, Stromboli,
and Fesuvius is extingnished. The
indurtrial problem is not confined
to the struggle between organized
labor on the one hand, and employ
ers and non union labor on the
other. The labor question does
not involve only those who work
with their hands and for a daily
wage. The cruclest tragedies of
that warfare which we call busi-
ness, of that fierce game of beggar-
my-neighbor in which all mankind
is engaged, are Suffered outside the
ranks of workingmen. The work
ingman is apt to think his employ
er his natural enemy, and indeed
our anarchic industrial system
justifies the conclusion. But the
employer in turn has his natural
enemies-his rivals-and his treat
ment of his men must in some de-
gree depend on the tiercencss Of
the competition he has to meet.
The whole land is studded with
mute monuments to the tragic de-
feats Of men above the grade of
workingmen in the industrial scale.
Mark how the cross roads wheel
wright, the rivel- side grist mill,
the neighborhood abbatoir, have
vanished before the great wagon
shops of South Bend, the man.
moth mills of Minneapolis, the
stockyards Of Chicago. Walk the
streets of any of our great cities,
and see how the modest shops, Of
fering each some special sort of
wares-books, dry goods, gloves
and toys-have disappeared. Their
former owners are now department
chiefs in department stores, OF
ont on the world as superannuated.
The professions are not exempt.
Note how the old-time lawyer, in
dependent at least in his own office
and circumventing justice with
only his own conscience to answer
to. is giving way to legal corpor
ations with three or four directing
heS5s and an army of rfired legal
h6daes.-The Pilgrim.

Barron had had a hard jolt from
girl in the east. We didn't know about
that at first and couldn't understand his
deep rooted antipathy TO everything
in petdcoats about Goshen's ranch
house He was hardly civil to Mrs.
Goshen herself, though she was old
enough to be his mother. and when her
nieces came up from Walla Walla to
spend q couple of weeks Barron beg
ged to go off with Gingerface, the va
quero, and Tom Smalley after stray
cattle. But one Of the girls, and the
smartest and prettiest Of the lot, Mi
nervy Bowles, remained at the ranch.
He spent most Of his time lodging her.
He'd change Jobs with anybody about
the place, no matter what the job was,
If he could only keep away from the
ranchhouse, and the boys soaked 1t to
him Welded and they did
But Minervy would corral him now
and then, and twas just beautiful to
see how she played him when he was
hooked.
She'd corner him on the veranda ard
get him talking about the east and
about college and bugs and minerals.
She wasn't no SLOUGH on education her
self. Minervy wasn't, though she
wasn't letting on to Barron. He must
have Judged her caliber from seeing
her ride and shoot, and he set her
down first card out of the box as what
the eastern papers call "a product OF
the wild and woolly west" He was
used to seeing a girl all fixed up in
silk and furbelows presiding at tea
table or something like that.
But l want you to show ne the fe-
male creature that amt match for
the male every time. Minervy didn't
start in caring brass farthing for
Barron, but it piqued her that he still
fought shy. She just laid herself out
to bring him down, and-well, you
know the old saying about playing
with fire.
My woman was cooking for the
Goshens then. Reckon one woman
most usually sees another woman's
game first. She let on to me before
many weeks that Minervy was just
about eating her heart out over young
Barron
l didn't believe it at first. Minervy
seemed just the same when Barron
was around as ever-snappy and full
of life and jollying the peace of mind
clean out of the boy. But ! noticed

PANORAMA OF FINANCE AND
the MARKETS.

AS one would expect OF great
metropolitan newspaper facilities OF
the Chicago Record Herald, that pa
per always covers the markets ana
financial and commercial intelli-
gence generally Oh IA scale Of excep-
tional fullness, covering two entire
pages of each issue. The quotations
on live stock. grain and provisions,
stocks and bonds, and in fact every
commercial and financial market in
which the people Of the Northwest
are interested, are thoroughly COM
plete and satisfactory.
Special cables tell the story Of f.
nance abroad. The Speculative
Gossip" wall Street Talks and
"La Sale Street Notes are features
of the Record Herald market page
that interest spectators from the
Pacific to the Atlantic coast. They
tell of the Inducements in the
gram and security markets. They
relate tales of the pit, in its way as
important as the humdrum and rou-
tine part of the days story of the
speculation. The Wall street letter
of John Chambers summarizes the
daily history of Gotham's money
mart in a most entertaining and in
structive fashion. Examine the
market page of any issue and see
for yourself.

when he was off on the range she
dropped, and 1 finally took my woman's
view of it.
And 1t got me mad, too-mad with
Barron. Minervy was as fine q filly as
ever cavorted over these here foothills,

out here and mix her up so that sha
