But Parker's dsengaged, hand thrust him away.
Safer for me to get the drop than for him., he
declared cheerfuy Hands up, sonny, and you
too, Buck, or I'll shoot your brother before you
can show gun'
He was obeyed.
That's better" he conceded. MIR. Mather, sir,
you may straighten out this young bully's blunder
if you tell him whose word you have for my being
a Parker
With vehement sincerity Mather stated that his
guide guaranteed to be the nephew of Dan
Parker of Wide Mouth Gap by that veterans word
which he had been given to believe taken for
Gospel truth" among the West Virginia noun
tains
The accuser was pale under his freckles. The
hands held above his head shook visibly. But his
eyes met Parker's the mdzzle of the revolver
undaunted and unconvinced.
Dan Parker is all right" he said hoarse-
1y. But no Parker ever looked like Jim
Bassett"
He is heap handsomer than most Parkers, >:
the representative of that agreed; but I'm

A nervous grin
softened the anxious
face of Buck. " Reck-
on you've mussed
things, SAM" he sug-
gested.
You talk sense!"
Parker exclaimed.
IF you promise to
learn some of it to
your big brother, III
let him off this time. "
He lowered his re-
volver. " You can
get on your horse,
Sam Simpson, and
ride down to Wide
Mouth Gap and give
my love to Uncle
Dam" he said, fold
ing his arms. Be
sure you swear you

You had the drop on and you didn't shoot
the lad growed, mounting Il owe you chance.
But I'll kill Jim Bassett day, in your skin

Parker waved his hand gaily and followed Mather
across the stream
That mans desire for acquaintance with half
savage descendants of romantic outlaws had van
ished. Though he admired Parker's cool mastery
of the recent situation, he expressed the conviction
that no citizen Of these regions was blameless for
such exhibitions OF lawlessness.
" In any Northern State you would have those
boys put under bonds to keep the peace he con-
Guided. AS this Bassett, for whom they mstook
you, seems to have been deputy, l suppose he
shot their father in self-defense?'
That's right. Simpson a rnoonshiner,
killed when his still raided by the marshal and
his deputies, Parker answered. But l reckon
I'm as like Jim Bassett as if we were twins and
even to Northe'ner it must be kind of justifable
that boy should banker to shoot the chap who
killed his father
Not when he makes a crazy mistake that might
have cost you and me our lives"
You would have been as safe with those kids
as in New-York, unless you went SO far as to try
to defend me-"
Even a Northerner doesn't let his COM
panon be murdered without trying to defend
him"
"Shake!" Parker exclaimed stretching out
his hand My travels ought to have taught
me that North or South grit is grit in all
climates. But if l had known l like
Bassett, after five years, wouldn't be guiding
you across these mountains, he added sober
ly. There others who have the same
those bows for making the same
blunder and they may be quicker with their
guns, and I'll be obliged to you, sir, if you
ride back to Wide Mouth Gap and get safer
guide
Z will you come back too?''
me? No. sirl I've notion to hunt up
old friend in these parts and l allow to
keep right on"
Then will l. Mather answered rather
surprised at his resolve I'm short of

Il Parker protested further The subject
II dropped, and twerty-four hours without adj
venture and with much genial comradeship
ia over campfire and through long days
prospecting in the timber Mather meant to
q buy, increased his liking for his guide
But the work was rough, the rations coarse,
and the following afternoon Mather was glad
to see log cabin with curl of smoke above
it. Parker's first doubtful murmur that there
had been settlers hereabouts in his day

NORTH DAKoTA's BIG SHARE OF
THE FUND.
Nearly Five Millions Added to the Re-
clamation Fund This Year, Of Which
North Dakota's Land Sales Are
Largely Responsible.

Washington, Nov 5.-The general
landofiice has completed compilation
of returns for the fiscal year from To-
cal landoffices throughout the country
showing receipts from sales Of public
lands, and computation of the proper
tion which is to go into the reclamation
fund. The statement shows that $4,-
SS2,0S4 was added to the reclamation
fund last year, and that Its total on
June 30 last was $32,95S,192.12. North
Dal1ota's share of this total is $5,374,
395, of which $S33,SO3 was contributed
last year Montana's receipts last year
were $500,746, the total for the state
being $2,647.433
The reclamation act provides that a
major portion of the money obtained
in each state shall be expended in that
state, and the secretary of the inter-
ior has construed this to mean that 81
per cent shall be SO allotted The ma
jor portion OF proceeds of sales of land
in North Dakota since the act was
passed is $2,74O941, and in Montana it
Is $1,350191
South Dakota contributed $262.30S to
the fund last year, the total for the
state being $1,2S5, 4S0

Idaho, West Virginia Louisiana,
South Dakota, Mississippi, Virginia,
Nebraska, Alabama. Minnesota, Color
ado, North Carolina, South Carolina
Wyoming and Rhode Island. Aside
from the two principal political part
les, a dozen others have tickets in the
field. The prohibitionsts and social
lists have tickets in nearly every state
In less than half a dozen states have
the populists put up candidates. In
California Hearst's independence
league has put UP a separate ticket
In New York and Massachusetts the
candidates of the independence league
are the same as those on the demo-
cratic tickets. In New York the
municipal ownership party has ticket
in the field. In Colorado there is an
Independent candidate for governor in
addition to the tickets put up by the
republican, democratic and socialist
organizations. In several states the
independent labor party has put up
candidates. The contests in New York
state and Pennsylvania are of special
interest Charles e. Hughes, republic
an and William r. Hearst, demo-
cratic and independence league, having
waged hot campaign for the COVER
norship from start to finish. So many
conflicting elements enter into the fight
that it is not safe to predict the re-
suit, but the chances seem to favor the
election of Hughes on account of the
large detection of democrats from the
Hearst standard. The latter, however,
viii have large gains from the labor
vote, and claims city and state. In
Pennsylvania there is a very sharp
contest for governor between Lewis
Emery, jr., the fusion nominee of the
Lincoln republicans and the democrats,
and Edwin S. Stuart, once mayor of
Philadelphia, the republican candidate
Both sides claim the state, and it is
difficult to tell which will win. The
republican congressional committee
claims that the republicans will have
sixty majority in the house of repre-
sentatives. The democratic congress
sional committee claims that the re-

st. Paul, Nov. 5.-Today will see the
finish of hard fought gubernatorial
campaign in Minnesota. Notwithstand-
ing the strenuous efforts of both candi-
dates for this office the campaign as a
whole has furnished less excitement
than any contest for that office in the
past Both the state committees are
hopeful of electing their candidates and
some of the democratic leaders are SO
confident of Governor Johnson's re-
election that they have had on deposit
$4,000 to back up their opinion. On
the other hand the republicans claim
that A. L. Cole will be elected by 20,-
600 majority. With the exception of
the Second and Sixth congressional
districts, where something of a fight
has been waged against the republican
candidates for congress, it is generally
conceded that all the republican can
didates will be elected.

Chicago, Nov. 5. Judge Pinckney,
