THE STORY OF The STEAL

HEINZ AND THE POLITICAL CORPORATIONS BOUGHT,
SOLD AND DEBAUcHED THE STATE OF COLORADO.

votes to unseat Adams and seat Pea
body and subsequently Mcdonald was
lacking, notwithstanding all of the
members who had been bought, buli.
dozed, clubbed and debauched ana
therefore it was necessary to take an
adjournment in order that still othe-
legislators could be bought.
The vote on adjournment stood 4s
to 4s, tie, and under the rules a tie
vote is lost.
Lieutenant Governor Jesse Nc
Donald at this crisis stepped into the
breach and saved the day for the cor
porations and the political dealers in
Gussenheim and Evans Doodle.
1t Is common belief to-day, as it
was then, that as high as $1,000 was
paid for vote ON adjournment ana
as high as $4,000 for votes to seat
the Peabody Mcdonald official thieves.
BE that as it may, Mr.. Mcdonald in
sisted upon, and did cast, the deciding
vote for the adjournment so necessary
for the success of the conspiracy, al
though he had no right on earth 10 d.
so. and thus brought about the ad-
| Ijournment, during which all rebelIious
Republican legislators were plainly
told that neither then nor in the here

not technically an issue in this cam

fresh in the minds of the people, for
the reason tnat this same party ana
these same men are now again before
the voters of Colorado asking for the
suffrage of the people.
Asking for the support of those
whom they sold out!
Asking to be again placed in power
Of the state government!
Asking that the people whom they
robbed, sold, traded and plundered
now give them vote of confidence,
give them the offices, the salaries, the
power and emoluments and turn over
to them the reins Of government.
Asking that we say to the world
that we like to be bought and sold like
chattels!
That we place a higher value upon
the smelter trust gold than we do
upon our honor and manhood!
That we are but chattels to be bar
tered by political pirates whose public
life and actions stand out today be-

Tue weekly review of trade, published

Trade developments include none Of
'triking importance, and conditions main

Movements of general merchandise now
extend to sensoDable proportions, aad re.
tail trade here ard st the interior is ia
yorably stimulated By lower temperatures
staple commodities remain in fair re-
guest for early shipment. the attendance
OF buyers in the wholesale branches being
well maintained, and the deep water ways
convention brought large numbers of vis
itors, who bought freely at the fall open
ings in fashionable lines. satisfactory alb
sorption being made of apparel, millinery,
footwear and house furnishings.
Chicago steam road returns testify to
increasing freight tonnage, Of finished
products and heavy materials, and re-
cespts disclose further recovery in crude
supplies for conversions.
Live stock arrivals make the best aggre.
gate in SOME time past, although shortage
Is yet felt in hogs and beeves.
Stocks of provisions in store have I'M
dergone rapid reduction during the last
thirty days. and easier values induced
more liberal buying and heavy east-bound
shipments.
Cash grain markets were duller than
was expected, but futures became active
upon reports of political troubles in Eu-
rope.
Manufacturing indicates that machin-
cry and labor nave become more fully
engaged. Furnace product is in rather
quiet demand for the first quarter of 1903,
and prices waver, but there is steadier
activity at the steel mills. carshops and
foundries. and closer working to capacity
in farm implements, heavy hardware, MAJ
chinery and electric appliances.
Bank clearings, 81 ,341 .,56l, are 40
per cent under those Of corresponding

Failures reported in the Chicago dis
trict numbered twenty-five, against twen-
ty-seven last week and twenty-four a year
ngo. Those with liabilities over 5000
number five. against six last week and

Right in front Of us on the street
doctors table is a small heap Of human
teeth. A patient came up to the doc
tor. On being asked what he wanted
he replied simply by opening his mouth
to the very widest extent. 1t was q
that his four upper front teeth were
wanting.
Measuring the cavity in the jaw, the
tooth pcddler carefully selected from the
heap IT, for teeth that would exactly
fill it. He then drilled a hole In them
longitudinally and inserted a bit Of
wire to bind them to each other
The ends OF the wire were next IN
serted In holes that were drilled into
the teeth on each side Of the cavity and
at once the chasm disappeared.-North

CHAPTER VIII.

S1lAI " NAA
1t was Z o'clock, and George Greswold
had not yet come home from Salisbury.
Very few words had passed between him
and his wife since she fell fainting at
his feet last night. He had summoned her
maid, and between them they had brought
her back to consciousness, and half car
ried her to her room. She would give no
explanation of her fainting fit when the
maid had left the room, and she was lying
on her bed, white and calm. with her hus-
band sitting by her side. She old him
that she was tired, and that a sudden
giddiness had come upon her. That was
oil he could get from her.
Not once did her eyes close in sleep
all through that night, or in the morning
hours before breakfast. She made an ex-
cuse for breakfasting in her dressing
room, a large. airy apartment. half bou-
doir. She was told that Mr.. Greswold
had gone out early to see some horses at
Salisbury, and would not be bach till din
ner time. She had been writing letters
in the morning. Two of these she now
placed on the mantelpiece III her bed
room: one addressed to her husband, the
other to Pamela.
She had a bag packed. just large enough
to contain the essentials of the toilet. She
put on q neat little black bonnet and .
travelling cloak, took her bag and UNI
brella, and went down to the hall. She
had given orders that the carriage should
call for her before going to the station,
and she was at the door ready to step into
1t when it came around. She told the
groom that she was to be put down at Ivy
Cottage. and was driven off unseen by the
household.
wv Cottage was within five minutes
walk of Romsey station, and was occu-
pied by two maiden ladies of small
means: one a confirmed invalid, the other
her patient nurse, whom the lady OF En-
derby Manor often visited, and In whom
she was known to be warmly interested.
The c~oachman concluded that his mis-
tress was going to spend a quarter of an
hour with the two old ladies, while he
went on and waited for his master at the
station, and that he was to call for her
on his return. He did not even ask for
her orders upon this point, taking them
for granted.
I'm to call for my mistress, SIR" he
said, az Mr.. Greswold stepped into the
brougham.
"Where?"
AT Ivy Cottage. sir-Miss Fishers"
Every good"
The brougham pulled up at Ivy Cot
tage, and the groom got down and knock
ed. He made his inquiry Of the startled
little maid-of-all-work. Mrs. Greswold had
not been at Ivy Cottage that evening.
George Greswold was out of the brougham
by this time, hearing the girls answer.
