Another Conflict
 Between Railroads

Every indication points to another conflict between the two railroad com panies in the vicinity of Gleeson. which will have to be decided by the courts. ::Tbe Southern Pacific has done considerable grading, and the Mexico & Colorado now proposes to cut through this grade in number oi places, and if they attempt so to do an effort will be made toprevent them by order of the courts.
 The bone of contention between the two companies is across the Costello clains The Southern Pacific en- deavored to get deed for right-of- way from Costello but he did not g,ve it to them. They immediately brought suit 10 condemn the right-oi- wsy desired and began to take pos session of the same ss is allowed un- oer the law. Soon after thls deed was filed by the Mexico 6 Colorado railroad by Costello to strip Ci ground which in many places the ground wanted by the S,uthern Pa cific, and which they have already asked the courts to condemn.
 It is reported that fl the graders o the Mexico X Colorado start work on this ground they will be met with re- distance on the part of the forces ot the southern Psc fc, in the shape o an injunction, it being stated on re- liable authority that the attorneys fo that company are already at work pre- pairing the napers to that end.
 Both companies have had thei head officials in Gleeson looking owe the situation during the past lew day: Yesterday, Walter Douglas and Prof James Douglas were over the groun
 of the Mexico & Colorado road witl the engineers, while the Southern Pa eific has been represented out ther
 by Right of-way Agent C- D. heppJ Chief Engineer J. C, Mcclure and Al torney c. D. Taylor from Tucson.
 The outcome of the coufiict will | stched with interest, and it woul tend to disproye the recent report lthst the two companies had resche .n understanding as to their interest
 in that section.

Democracy the ONLY Hope.

The fatal weakness in Senator Cum
Minis program of progressive Repub-
licanism is the proposed compromise
by which the progressives are to com
bine with the reactionaries in COM
mon fight against Democratic control
of Congress.
If the insurgent Republicans of Iowa,
the Northwest and the Middle West
wage their fight against tariff monopo-
" and in favor of honesty in govern
ment upon any such compact as that,
they will be absorbed by the reaction
aries and their leaders will disappear
from politics after few campaigns.
Between the principles upon which
Mr.. Cummins was elected 70 the Sen
ate and those for which Senator Aid
rich and Speaker Cannon stand the
difference is as wide as that between
night and day There would be neither
political honesty nor good practical
politics in a fight by Mr.. Cummins
friends to help the enemies of their
principles to stay In Congress.
If Mr.. Cummins has correctly out
lined the course to be followed by
Western insurgent leaders, the signal
is sounded for an aggressive Demo
cratic fight in all the Western States
where there is a revolt against the
greed and bad faith of the Republican
party. The Republican party will new
or ha good until IL is dead ST Iaufs

Through President Taft comes the
announcement that Senator Aldrich
will make lecture tour of the West
before Congress meets, with view to
convincing the people that he can be
trusted to attend to any little changes
that may be deemed necessary in our
currency system. President Taft adj
mits that the Senator is regarded with
deep suspicion" He suggests. however
that bis simple but effective style OF
speaking" may convince the people OF
his sincerity.
Since Mr.. Aldrich charmed the Pres.
ident into signing a tariff bill which
admittedly failed to fulfill his promises
to the people, it is not surprising that
President Taft should have great con
fidence in the Senator's hypnotic gifts
In hypnotism, however, much depends
on having a susceptible subject The
Chicago Journal predicts that Mr.
Aldrich will find It far more difficult to
pull the wool over the eyes of the peo-
pie of the West. They have observed
with interest his relations with certain
powerful interests in Wall street. They
are quite thoroughly convinced that
any plan that Mr.. Aldrich might sug-
gest for currency regulation would be
entirely in the interest of those finan-
cial dons, TO the chief of whom the
Senator is related by marriage. There
is strong reason to believe that Senator
Aldrich's reputation as hypnotist will
have suffered materially by the time
he has completed his swing around the
western circle.

Agatha Dale was one of those woxn-
en- who have the strength to wait, as
we'll as the wisdom to make a discreet
use OF such opportunities as fall in
their way. From her earliest girlhood
she had loved her godmother's young
brother, with love that had grown
into a part of herself Unfortunately
Miss Carroll in her affectionate desire
10 promote the happiness OF both the
young people under her care. had done
her best TO foster and stimulate the
girls misplaced fancy.
When Agatha had awakened to the
bitter reality OF her position she had at
first suffered acutely both in her pride
and in her heart. 1t was only after
some years OF hard and determined
schooling of her thoughts that she i'm
agined herself to be cured; and it was
then that she had met Lord Neither

cepted the offer which he had made TO

Oats make an excellent food for the
poultry, providing they are of the
right kind. The long, slim oat, with
plenty of husk or hull is poor feed
for anything, but the plump. meaty
oat is a good feed for all stock, in
Guiding poultry.
Hulled oats for young chickens
after they are three or four weeks
old will help them to make bone and
muscle faster than any other one feed.
and this is the most desirable ele-
ment at this period Of growth.
For grown or feeding fowls we have
at most seasons of the year fed one
feed of oats daily with most salts
factory results We have fed some
oats after boiling them for fall and
winter feeding, but they were of poor
quality, and the boiling was to soften
the huus rather than because the boil
ing added any other value to the oats
feed itself Boiling is not necessary
with good oats except by way of va
riety in feeding. The best way is to
feed them in the litter, scattered well
and deeply so che fowls will have to
do considerable scratching.-AgricuI-

Acannonism as am Issue,

The proclamation by Representative
Charles N. Fowler of New Jersey, that
the Republicans in the regular session
of Congress must war upon Cannonism
If they wish to carry the elections next
year is worthy of all acceptance,
though 1t will not be needed by any
except the insurgents, whose ranks
Mr.. Fowler has joined since Mr..
Speaker disciplined HIM for insubor-
dination in the last Congress.
In his hatred of Cannon and Can
nonism Mr.. Fowler is no more patri-
otto and philosophical than he was
when. as dutiful disciple of the gen.
tleman from Danyille, he worked in
harmony with the House machine and
took the good things which Cannon
get their dues when thieves fall out.
so public good is apt to follow quar-
rel among politicians whose ways are
evil
Mr.. Fowler tells us nothing new
when he declares that proper legisla-
tlon cannot be had from Congress as
long as the House is held fast in the
grip of the Speaker and small group
OF usurping leaders, who dictate what
the House shall and shall not do The
Republic has said this many times in
the last few years. and it is as true
now as it was when the usurping
tyranny of the Reed rules was first
subjected to the fire of Democratic
guns.
The suppression of debate on the
tariff In the House during the recent
session and the jamming of the Payne
Aldrich bill through both houses by
machine organization have indeed
made Cannonism one of the para
mount issues If not reformed 1t will
help to defeat the Republican party in
the Congressional elections next year

A Censur sngsestion.

What does prosperity mean? This is
question to which the next census
should be made to furnish an answer
We have learned much about public
deficits and the reason for them. Let
US find out about the deficit in the
average mans pocketbook and its
cause
Germany recently has collected ex
tensive statistics concerning the in
come and expenses of families in al
parts of the empire They show tina;
majority are barely able to exist
even with the most rigid economy
STILL Germany is called a prosperous
country.
We boast Of our prosperity. Leaders
of political and industrial thought tell
US that we are on the eve of an epoch
of unexampled progress. Perhaps such
inquiry as that made in Germany may
disclose that the masses do not share
fairly in this era of good fortune. We
may discover that our idea Of prosper
fly is superficial, and that it actually
reaches only a small proportion OF the
millions whose labor produces it.
1t is important that incomes and
family expenditures of various classes
should be carefully investigated In
formation thus obtained may identify
more definitely some Of the evils In
our economic system.

CHAPTER x


That very night, the last night that
Irene spent at her old home the night
on which she saw that dream or Wis
ion of her lover and heard his strange
half-real cry to her. Rupert Carroll
came suddenly out of his bedroom at
Harrington, walked quickly along the
passage, and knocked loudly at his
sisters door. Louise sprang up in
alarm to let him In; he was standing
completely dressed outside her door.
He seemed to be in a condition of ex-
treme agitation, and she saw that his
face was working with some great
and unaccustomed emotion.
Rupert" she cried is dismay. Ara
you i'll? what Is the matter?"
Get up at once. Louise! don't let
me go to sleep again. you must talk TO
me. keep me awake! Something has

something that has become clearer. 1

ray. Where do you want to go?"

n-Thames-don't oppose met" he
cried with the petulant irritation of
an invalid. Il tell you must go"
My dear boy. of course. of course"
she answered. soothingly. You shall
go where you like; but why need you
so so very early? Let us wait for the
o'clock train at all events, and do
so quietly back to bed now?"
NO. no. MOI" he reiterated II tell
you 1 must so as soon as possible. /
called out to me TO come. 1t was a
voice l know quite we'll must so
to Chatswell. 1t was from there that
it came. and If l go to sleep again. l
may forget it. 1t may so from me-"
Louise Carroll recollected what the
specialist from London had said about
the divers ways in which memory re-
turns after such strange periods OF
obliteration. and resolved that no
stone should possibly be left unturned
that could lead to complete resto-
ration of her brothers mental powers.
But when. after hasty cup OF tea
In the early dawn OF the winter morn
ing. they walked shiveringly down to-
gether 10 the station TO catch the ear
ly train, there is no doubt that this
devoted and much enduring sister pri-
vately believed that they were off on
a wild-goose chase.
Che would not consent to let him
go alone: and having carried his main
point, Rupert acauiesced in her resolu-
ton 10 accompany him: he did not in
point OF fact, seem TO care very much
whether she went with him or no AL
through the journey to Victoria and
the drive across London in the cab n
Paddington, and TIE subsequent longer
railway Journey TO Chatswell. Ruper'
remained silent and distracted. His
face was fixed. his eyes stared vacant
~ before him, and he passed his hanc
frequently over lis brow in the puz-
xled manner Ahich told her that h'
was trying to remember. He wa:
-linging like a drowning man to 6
straw. to that one renewed impress
slon that had come back TO him. tbs
