The Democrats can view with CON-
placency the clouds gathering on the
Republican horizon. for in the event
of President Roosevelt's rejection by
the Republican national convention,
there would be vast number of
ardent Republicans who would be at
least lukewarm for the slight cast upon
their leader. If President Roosevelt is
able to overcome the opposition In his

CHAPTER XIV.

The time for opening the package left
| in Ethel's charge by Mrs. Nevergail WIS
now fast approaching, it being the fiji st
| of October, and consequently she began
\ to feel exceedingly anxious in regard to
the unknown parent, who was to pre-
sent himself upon the fifth.
What sort of a person should she find
in him, and would he be satisfied with
her attachments and appearance? These
questions were continually presenting
themselves to the mind of the poor girl.
On the morning of the second, a letter
was placed in her hand by one of the
servants, and as private" was written
on the outside, she at once repaired to
her own room in order to read it while
alone. The contents, to her surprise, ran
as follows:
VERY strange will it seem, my daugh-
ter. to receive this, your first letter from
an entirely unknown parent. Not from
any lack of paternal telling have ! denied
myself the pleasure of seeing my only
child, until she reaches her twenty-frst
birthday, but from train of circum-
stances which made this course the wis
est. j. however, am now counting the
days when | shall at last clasp her in
my arms. and give to her a fathers
kisses and blessing. l presume you have
in your possession a package to be open
ed on that eventful day. have seen Mr..
Rogers, and he has told me of the death
of your foster mother, and that you are
residing at Castle Cairn. My child, |
shall leave Liverpool on the morning
train, reaching the castle Mt noon. I'M
til my appearance on the scene, | prefer
mat you do not open the package. To
gether we will break the seal. Until
then l will only sign myself your affec-
tionRte FATHER.
Noon of the long expected day at
length arrived, and her grace, the
Duchess of Westmoreland. who conde-
scended TO feel considerable interest in
the young governess of her granddaugh-
ter. together with Lady Claire. were seat
ed in the drawing room. striving TO calm
the unusual agitation of anxious and ex-
cited Ethel, who restlessly paced up and
down the elegant apartment. or fitted
from window TO window, IN order TO
watch the drive, TO catch the first glimpse
of her coming sire.
At length her weary watch was re-
waried by seeing a hanson dash up TO
the entrance. and an elegant looking gen.
tleman descend. One moment passed.
then the door opened. and the stranger
entered.
Tall, and exquisiteIy proportioned, with
an air at once distingue and easy: hand
some features and large dark eyes: hair
and full beard a rich brown. in which
blended few gray threads. This was
the picture of the one who paused mo-
ment near the threshold TO survey the lit
tie group of ladies. Then. as Ethel ad-
vanced a few steps TO meet him. he ex-
claimed:
MY darling daughter. / am rejoiced to
see vour' at the same time folding her
TO his bosom in a joyful embrace.

Republicans Must Explain.

The disturbed condition of business,
outside of Wall street, must be faced
by the Republicans in the coming pres
idential campaigns With complete con-
troll of all the forces of government,
with high tariff protection that they
always claim is a guaranty of pros
perity, yet banks are busting, the mills
are closing, or shortening their run
ming time ana notices are given Of re-
duction Of wages. When a like dis
turbance> of business existed in 1898,
they placed the blame on the Demo
Gratis and the passage of tariff bill
that reduced the tariff Now there is
10 fear of tariff protection, for at least
two years, and they assure us that
President Roosevelt and a Republican
Congress- Will be elected in 1904 and
yet the business depression has COM
menced under their auspices. There
is something rotten IN the State of
Denmark but the Republicans do not
explain or cannot see che reason as
they could in 1888. Is there fear of
what their cratic President will do?
Is the protective tariff top heavy and
Overwhelming, or distressing the tax
payers with its reckless taxation? Is
the gold standard at fault, or has the
legislation in favor OF monopolies ex-
hausted the resources of the people
and concentrated their earnings In the
hands of the trusts and combines? To
"stand pat does not answer the ques-
ton and it is up 10 the Republicans to
define the cause of the business trou-
bles that have already occurred and
the greater ones evidently impending.

Gus enough to afford satisfactory
choice, and many of them rival costly
silks for beauty. Their wearing quail
ties are excellent, too, and while the bet
ter sorts are far from cheap, they re
pretty sure to give much better return
than will anything like the same outlay
in the cheaper grades of silks.
Most bodiceS reflect the stylishness of
shoulder slope, this being apparent both
in the cut of material and in the placing
of trimming. These fashions do not seem
nearly as pronounced as they did last
spring, yet observation shows that en-
phatic models are as numerous as they
then were. SO the conclusion is newt
able that observers have become accus-
toned to the almost shoulderless figure.
rather than that it has become less pro-
nounced. Bertha and shoulder cape eff
fects are numerous and much varied,
but all, in greater or less degree, achieve
the slope. AS to skirts, shorter ones are
promised for the near future. but dress
makers don't seem to be making haste in
that direction That is, while admitting
the change, If left alone they'll cut the
new skirt almost as long as ever. But
the shorter length is so much more sensi-
BILE that it surely will win its way. At
the same time skirts will become more
nearly round. That should, in a short
time. bring less of elaboration, but just

The public lands of the United States
belong to the whole people and should
be sacredly kept for their use and
benefit. These millions of acres Of for
ests, mountains and land in the arid
belt will before long be very valuable
and will be occupied, by a thrifty and
prosperous people. Even the noun
tains with their small valleys will be
wanted as the Increase of population
pushes our future millions further and
further from the present centers Of
population That a mountainous coun-
try will maintain those who are willing
TO work has been exhibited for ages
in Switzerland. A combination Of
lumbermen and land office officials
have formed a conspiracy to acquire
these valuable timber lands and the

lican newspaper announces that a
land graft" ring has for years been
acquiring titles to millions of acres
through the use Of dummies and other
fraudulent means" 1t is even stated
that a number of United States Sen
ators and Congressman are implicat-
ed and an investigation has been going
on for some time. The unearthing of
these gigantic land frauds stealing
the peoples patrimony, on the heels of
the exposure of the postoffice and 9TH
er scandals will serve to awaken the
American people to the necessity of en-
trusting the affairs of the government
to a new set of men. The Republican
leaders have so impressed their fol-
lowers with the idea that graft and
loot" are the desirata of government
that honesty of administration is no
longer considered

now a deal Of trimming is admitted.
Much of il is strapping. banding and
braiding. but these are used very freely,
and may be enforced by other elnbellish-
ments. Nor does all this abundant trim
ming carry out the one-color scheme of
which so much was heard a few months
ago. for not little striking color con
trast is INDUCED in skirt trimming Most
Of it, too. is so finely decorative that it's
sure TO stick.
Velvets and velyeteens are sure of
much favor. To view the showings Of
them in the stores is to know this 1t is
not necessary later to be told that they re
to be stylish Shoppers would buy such
rich and handsome fabrics if such in
dorScment were almost wholly lacking
1t is here that the stylishneSS of fuchsia
shades is most apparent, and certainly
these purplish tones are fine in velvet
weaves. Browns are next in the solid
color velvets Fancy velvets are many
most OF them downright fancifuL Most
women will use such sparingly, even as
trimming. for while they are very hand
some, they're likely TO be a bit too dis
tinctive in small warirobes. Broadcloths
and the satin-faced weaves thar achieved
such admirable fineness two winters age.

have become a matter OF much weightier

liking for hairy and hubby materials is

TO confuse the intending purchaser As
for the rough weaves. zihelline easily is

and that is about all the wool there is 10
