She knew that he was tightening his
obnoxious coils about her all the time.
Even now she could feel his hand upon
her arm. could hear his sibilant whis-

Knowing Graydon to be the son Of q
scoundrel, she could under ordinary
circumstances have forbidden her
daughter to marry him. In this In
stance she could not say him nay. The
venom OF James Bansemer In that
event would have no measure Of pity.
In her heart she prayed that death
might come to her aid in the destruc-
ton Of James Bansemer.

coming up the stairs that the solution

had a very strong purpose in letting
his son marry Jane Gable. She never
had ceased to believe that Bansemer

calculating father. "Ds won't you

David Cable hesitated for an instant

the door behind him. He was strange

ELECTION OF SENATOR HEPBURN

1t Is evident to all who have heard
Senator Hepburn in this and other
campaigns and to those who know Of
his work in congress that the citi-
zens of Idaho will make no mistake
by returning Senator Hepburn to the
United States senate. He has the
caliber of a statesman. He is man
of ideas and fixed opinions, with a
force and personality that makes it.
self felt even in SO august body as
the senate of the United States.
Senator Hepburn stands for fixed
principles and has demonstrated hil
ability to maintain high efficiency In
congress, which Is always directed
for the benefit of the interests of the
state Of Idaho. A vote for the Re-
publican legislative ticket is a vote
to return Senator Hepburn to Office
and to sustain the principles for
which he stands. Loyal Republicans
will see to 1t that no vote of theirs
Is used to defeat his election nor to
imperil the principles for which he
stands.

A REvERSION "ST1NGER. {"

Republicans who think of voting
for Mr.. Bryan should remember that
the Republican pledge for the revis.
ion OF the tariff does not mean that
the Republican party is to forsake
the policy OF protection, under which
the manufacturing interests of the
United States have fourished and
wage earners have received bette.
pay than is given to wage earners in
any other country.
And those Republicans should al
so remember that the Democratic
plan Of revision of the tariff grad
ually downward" means that the
party will drift toward free trade as
rapidly as possible. 1t believed in
free trade. Mr.. Bryan believes in
free trade. and ii the people elect a
Democratic president this time he
can not only block Rpublican re-
vision along protective lines, but his
success would be a step towards free
trade. which has alwarys proved a
blight upon the industries of the
country.
There's a "stinger" In the revis-
len plank Of the Democratic plat
form.
