He was running uphill, with a group of sheds, another wall and a still sleeper and rougher field beyond. His bulk told against him, and behind him he heard the quick thump of Oscars feet on the turf. The starlight grew dim mer through tracts of white scud; the surface of the pasture was rougher to the feet than it appeared to the eye. A hound in the Claiborne stable yard bayed suddenly, and the sound echoed from the surrounding houses and drift ed of toward the sheepfold. Then a noble music rose from the kennels.
 Captain Claiborne, waiting for his sister on the versnda, looked toward the stables. listening.
 Zmai approached the sheep sheds rapidly, with still a hundred yards to traverse beyond them before he should reach the pasture wall. His rage at thus being driven by small man for whom he had great contempt did not help his wind or stimulate the flight of his heavy legs. and he saw now that he would lessen the narrowing margin between himself and lis pursuer If he swerved to the right to clear the sheds.

WASHINGTON REPORTS
ON GOOD ROAD WORK

The state of Washington issued its
report recently Of the progress made
IN road building since the first laws
were enacted by the legislatures of
1905 and 1907.
Two classes Of roads have been con-
structed, state roads and state aid
roads. The state pays the entire cost
of the former, and the state and the
counties through which the state aid
roads run divide the cost of the lat
ter
Since 1905, when the first laws
were enacted, 7911 miles of state
roads have been built at a most Of
$159,40516; SIC miles of state aid
roads at a cost of $21,62493, while
about - miles of roads are under
contract to be built
Two steel bridges, one of 1S0-foot
span and one Of 25O-foot span, have
been constructed, while third bridge
of 1OO~foot span is under construc-
ton Five combination bridges have
been constructed, varying from 12O-
foot to 1S0-foot.
The character of the work done on
all roads that have been accepted has
been first class, and i'm no case has
the old-fashioned make shift been re-
sorted to.

BRYAN MAY COME
TO PACIFIC COAST

Col William H. Dunphy, who Is a
member Of the democratic national
committee, expects to leave in few
days for Portland to attend a meet
ing Of the national committeeman and
state chairman Of California, Oregon
and Washington, on September 16,
which has been called by National
Chairman Mack, says the Walla Wal
la Bulletin.
The object in calling this meeting
is the perfecting Of an organization
and the development Of plans for an
aggressive campaign IN the Pacific
coast states. The fact that the demo-
Gratis of this section seem to think
that Bryan will get a relatively larger
per cent Of the republican vote in the
Pacific states than in any other Of
Ike population I'm the country Is re-
sponslble for this energy, which they
are putting forth at present for the
perfecting Of a strong organization.
While no definite announcement
has been made. # Is quite likely that
at this conference the advisability Of
inviting the Commoner to tour the
Pacific states will be discussed. If
this Is deemed expedient at the COM
ing conference and the national party
leaders acquiesce in the plan, it is
very likely that the peerless leader
will be seen on the coast during the
latter part Of October and that he
will probably speak in Walla Walla.

times that of 1897, The increase over
the production of 1906 was 4,S7S.S47
short tons. or 12,O2 per cent in guam
tity, and $l9,9S1.O92. or 2176 per
