INTRODUCTION.

With this issue tho undersigned
take charge Of tho journal as cdi-
toss and publishers. To be strictly
confidential with you We arc not
prompted to do this from any long
ing for notoricty, nor because we
are great ph'lanthropists. but be-
causc we need tho money which we
believe the business will bring in,
and also because we feel that we
are able to give you full value for
every dollar you invest. either as y
subscriber or advertiser.
The policy OF the Journal under
this management will be to uphold
such principles and policies as will
best tend to build up Shoshonc,
Lincoln county, Idaho, and the
UnitedsStates. As we view it this
naturally makes the Journal re-
publican paper, but it is not the
organ OF any faction or political
machine which sacrifices those
principles for political advantage
or personal gain.

He began by putting Mrs. Fawcett
on her mettle, invented the dinner for
her and got old Fawcett out of his
wife's way by sending him to a neigh
boring nursery for the asparagus and
the green peas. Peggy he set to work
to make the beds, while he himself
gathered flowers for the table, flowers
for the ladies' rooms, flowers for the
veranda upon which the bride must
tread. The new flag, bought for this
day, had never been u%npacked. 1t was

horses swept up to the veranda, where
Tom stood in ardent readiness.
He had spent the interim in array
ing himself most carefully in all his
mental fnery, in shaving for the Sec
ond time that day, in laying out his
masters evening clothes, in gathering
the books which had been left upon
the shore, in reading and re-reading
the poem that expressed his case, in
talking to Peggy and in thinking OF
Claire.
The whole situation put him sadly in
mind Of Claire, but he was not think
ing Of her as the horses trotted up. He
had forgotten all about her when he
heard her voice. Next moment the
c~urricle bridged the stream of lamp

"Let us split no hairs! You think-I

In the dead silence following these
words the servant heard his master
stamping into evening dress overhead;
he felt his own crested buttons glitter
ing in the candlelight that shone upon
the table he had set so beautifully for
the bride, and as she tossed back the
ringlets that he knew so we'll and re-
peated with unflinching eyes what she
had told him in so many candid words
all that had distracted him up to this
moment ceased to do so any more.
Her coming was nothing to him now.
Her GRAND was nothing; she was wei.

were white wisps in the blue
above and tiny crests upon the
blue below. 1t was early morn
ing, and Tom, having waited admira-
bly, overnight, was setting the break
fast table when his master came in
glowing from the morning dip. AS a
rule they bathed together; this excep-
ton was their first. They had not
spoken since the previous evening. but
here was Daintree in q glow for more
causes than salt water and fresh air,
and a glance told the other that he
was forgiven.
"Well. Thomas, will you listen to me
another time? Neither lady has the
slightest idea who you are"
81 am thankful to hear you say so,'
said Tom, laying the knives.
LADY Starkie never set eyes on
you before. l feel certain that Miss
Harding doesn't know you from Adam.
Don't you think it was rather vain of
you to imagine that she would?"

plused.
