u BOUT o'clock on the following
In afternoon Mrs. Mortimer's
maid, who had almost finished
a n drying and dressing her mis-
tress hair. was called to the door by
a persistent knocking. which at first
she had been hidden to disregard.
1t was Mortimer's man, desiring to
know whether Mrs. Mortimer could re-
ceive Mr.. Mortimer at once on matters
of Importance.
"No," said Leila petulantly. Tel
Mullins to say that l cannot see any
body And, catching a glimpse OF
the shadowy Mullins lodging about
the dusky corridor: what is the mat
ter? Is Mr.. Mortimer ill?'
But Mullins could not say what the
matter might be, and he went away,
only to return in a few moments bear
ing a scratchy note from his master,
badly blotted and still wet and Leila,
with shrug of resignation, took the
blotched scrawl daintily between
thumb and forefnger and unfolded it.
Behind her the maid, twisting up the
masses of dark, fragrant hair, read the
note very easily over her mistress
shoulder. 1t ran, without prelimi-
naries:
I'm going to talk to you whether you
like it or not. Do you understand that?
If you want to know what's the matter
with me you'll find out fast enough. Fire
that French girl out before 1 arrive.
She closed the note thoughtfully,
folding and double folding it into a
thick wad. The ink had come off, dis
coloring her finger tips. She dropped
the soiled paper on the floor and held
out her hands, plump fingers spread.
And when the maid had finished re-
moving the stains and had repolished
the pretty hands her mistress slipped
her chocolate thOughtfully, nibbled a
bit of dry toast, then motioned the
maid to take the tray and her depar-
ture, leaving her the cup.
A few minutes later Mortimer came
in. stood a moment blinking around
the room, then dropped into a seat,
sullen, inert, the folds Of his chin
crowded out on his collar, his heavy
abdomen Graded on his short, thick
legs. He had been freshly shaved;

K. 1, REED WRITES
 FROM WASHINGTON.

Dayton, Wash, Nov. 17.- Editor of Springdale News: As desire The News sent to Day ton in tile future instead of Walla Walla l will drop you a line.
 l am now teaching school near Dayton, Columbia Co.,, and I can tell you teaching i'll the country school here Is not much like teaching in Arkansas. A school of twelve or fifteen pupils is con- sidered q large school. Very often there will be d school of only two or three pupils.
 l came to Washington last January and there had been only few showers. not what 1 should call q rain up to September, since then We have lad some rain. l saw fields of wheat that made fifty bushels per acre and l would call It d crop without rain. 1t was quite sight to me to osee the different harvesting crews. There are q great many combined har- vesters used which will cut, thresh and sack thirty acres of gram per day. They use from thirty to forty head of horses on each of these large machines and 1t certainly IS great to see them moving over ground where a fellow can hardly stand up 1t Is so steep.
 spent a day III the Blue Moun- tains some time back. Talk about hunting, well 1 got mine! l walked until ready to drop, and game there was plentiful, but 1t was always gone before 1 got there. never before hunted grouse and l did not expect to find them in the tops of the trees, but there they were, as 1 soon discovered and 1 would walk up to a grove and peep into every tree, as l thought, then about nine times out of ten a half doz- en grouse would go hutter1ng in all directions. Well I got tired of that kind of hunting pretty quick so 1 climbed to the top of the mountain and took the back trail and came home about as near all in as fellow cares to be. Now have enough hunting grouse.
 Yours Truly,

GOVERNOR NORRIS OPENS CAMPAIGN

partiality, his refusal to participate
In the choice Of the nominee, his ab-
solute lack of interest in the prslim-
inaries to the Chicago convention,
his irsistence on an ''even break for
Fairbanks, Hughes, La Follst t.,
Foraker, Cannon and Knox; his SEN
sational removal of 100000 or less
Federal office holders for manipulating
things for Taft--all these things served
to make his political thoughts obseare,
mysterious and even inscrutable. Sc
rene, aloof, unbiased, immovable,
his real sentiments were at once the
wonder Of the voters and the riddle OF
the politicians.
'ENow thai it is known-the great
secret is out-that Roosevelt is for
Taft, and Chafin, Hisgen, Debs, Bryan
and Watson must 60 without his aid,
let the campaign 20 merriy on. There
is no reason for further delay.
''But in the eternal fitness OF things,
oughtn't Hearst to come out for
Hisgen, and oughn't Kern to declare
himself for Bryan for President?''

l.. j. Christler Accepts Nomination for
Legislature--Most Enthusiastic Rally
In the History of Havre.

"In accepting this nomination I
respond to the merits and demands Of
a cause rather than to the claims Of
any man or party; a cause which
means fairmindedness, earnest and
patriotic action directly and imme-
diately for the benefit Of the people.
If 1 am OF any value at all to the
people Of Northern Montana, if I can
accomplish results beneficial and
stable for every city, town and inter-
est Of this section Of our glorious
state, by helping to develop with
every ounce Of my power, by deed Of
pen and speech, the interest and re-
sources that have hitherto slumbered
In the soil Of negation, then | an
yours to command"
After his address, Mr.. Christler, as
acting chairman Of the meeting, in
troduced Mr.. Phil Goodwin, OF Butte,
nominee for the Office Of state treas
urer, who, in brief but vigorous
speech, defined his ideas Of the issues
Of the day, and his Interpretation OF
the duties devolving upon the state
treasurer.
The address of Governor Norris,
which followed, was listened to with
the respectful attention Of q people
directly interested in the cause Of
good government. Governor Norris
is essentially forceful speaker, and
possesses the rare gift Of at once i'm
pressing his hearers with the fact that
he is sincerely and thoroughly in ac-
cord with the sentiments he expresses.
AS stated above, the Governors time
wa- limited, but during the hour at
his disposal he. was in close touch
Wiz. his audience, and tile frequency
and heartiness of the applause accorded
him, was conclusive tribute to the
good work he was doing for the cause
he so ably represents.
The meeting itself was one to make
glad the heart of any man who be-
lieves in the principles and policies
advocated by Jefferson, that he is a
democrat, and in this connection,
eliminating partizanship, we wish to
express to the good people of Havre,
our sincere appreciation of their sue
cessful effort to impress the Governor
of the State of Montana with the fact
that he is by no means an alien in the
camp of an enemy, when visiting
our city.
