 Captain, my ticket reads to Daw. son, but I'm getting of here. Won't you have my outfit put ashore" He was followed by group of fellow passengers, who made similar re. quest.
 "This place is good enough for me-" one of them said.
 Me. too" another volunteered. This strike k new. and we've hit her just ln tine"
 Outside dozen men had crowded No Creek" Lee against the wall of the store and were clamoring to hear about his flcd.
 Stark wasted no time With money in his hands. he secured dozen men who were willing to work for hire. for there are always those who prefer the surety of ten coined dollars to the hope of hundred. He swooped down with these helpers on bis pile of merchan- disc that had lain beneath tarpaulins on the river bank since the day he and 2unniou landed, and by midafternoon a great tent had been stretched over a framework of peeled poles built on the lot where he and Necia had stood earlier in the day. Before dark his saloon was running. To be sure, there was TO floor, and his polished fixtures looked strangely new and incongru- Ous, but the town nt large had as sumcd q similar afr of incompleteness and crude immaturity. and little won- der. for it had grown threefold in half day. Stark swiftly unpacked his gambling implements, keen to scent every advantage, and out of the hand ful of pale faced jackals who follow at the heels of a healthy herd he hired men to run them and to deaf.

 At Stark's he found a large crowd of the new men, who welcomed him heartily. plying him with countless questions and marking to his maudlin tales of this new country which to him was old. He had followed the muddy river from Crater lake to the delta. searching the bars and creek beds in a tireless quest till he knew each stream and tributary, and, like Gale. he had lived these many years ahead of the law. where each man was his own court of appeals and where crime was unknown.
 "Oh, there's lots of countries worse'n this." he declared. we may not be very handsome to the naked eye, and we may not wear our ndk'chiefs fin our shirt cuffs, but there aint no wid- ders and orphans doin' our washin', and man can walk away from his house, stay a month and find it there when he comes back"
 Those days are past" said Stark. There's too many new people coming in for all to be honest"

 "Either would mean certain death," said stranger-"frost in winter, mos quitoes in summer!''

MEADE BURRELL FINDS A PATH IN TIT
 MOONLIGHT.
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1909-04-20

"AYO CREEK" LEE had come N into his own at last and was ] hero, for the story of his long Ill luck was common gossip now. and men praised him for his courage. He had never been prais- ed for anything before and was un- certain just how to take 1t.
 Say. are these people kiddin' mef'' he inquired confidentially of Poleon.
 wy? Wat you mean%
 "Well, there's feller maxim a speech about me down by the land in'."
 Wat he say?"
 Tt ain't nothin' to fight over He l says I'm another Dan'l Boom. leadin' the march of empire westward. Ger tainly sounds good. but is it on the levelp
 "Waal. guess so." admitted Poleon The prospector swelled with indigna- tion. "Then why in h--l didn't you | fellers tell me long ago?' | The scanty ounce or two of gold from his claim lay in the scales at the | post, where every newcomer might ex- anime 1t. and. realizing that he was q never ending source of information. they fawned on him for his tips, brib- ing him with newspapers worth $1 each or with cigars, which he wrapped up carefully and placed in his macki- naw till every pocket of the rusty garment bulged so that he could not sit without losing them. They dwelt | upon his lightest word and stood him up beside the bar. where they filled him with proofs of friendliness until he shed tears from his one good eye. Cautiously at first he let out his wit, which was logy from long disuse and as heavy on its feet as the jump ing frog of Calaveras, but when they laughed at its labored leaps and sallies his confidence grew. With the regu- larity of clock he planted cigars and ordered "a little more hard stuff." while his rowing eye rejoiced fin iachry- nose profusion, its ovcrburden losing Itself in the tangle of his careless beard. By and by he wandered through the town, trailed by a troop of tenderfeet, till the women marked him, whereupon he fed back to the post and hugged the bar. for he was a bashful man When Stark's new place opened it offered him another retreat, of which he avaied himself for some time. But late in the even ing he reappeared at Old Man Gales store, walking bit unsteadily, and as he mounted the flight of logs to the door he stepped once too often.
 What's become of that fourth steD?" he demanded sharply of Poleon "Dere she is" said the Frenchman.
 I'm blamed if 1t is. You moved it since was here"
 "Tll have i'm put back" laughed the other.
 Say, it's grand thing to be rich. ain't it?"
 ''l don't know. I ain never try it.
 "Well. 1t Is, and now that I've arriy- ed I'm goin' to change my ways com plete. No more extravaganza in mine. I'll never lend another cent"
 "W'at's datT ejaculated Doret in amazement.
 No more hard luck stories and 'hur- ry ups for mine. I'm the stony heart. ed jailer, am. from now. henceforth. world 'thout end. amen! No busted miners need apply. I've been a good thing. but tonight turn on the time lock"
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1909-04-20

aBa gosh! You're fonny feller. laughed Poleon. who had lent the one eyed man much money In the past and like others. regarded him not merely as bad risk. but as a total loss "Mebbe you t'ink you've been q spen'. t'rif all desc year." Doret took the hero of the day by the arm and led him to the rear of the store. where he bedded him on a pile of four sacks, but he had hardly re- turned to the bar when Lee came veer- ing out ofthe dimness. making for the light like ship tacking toward a bea. con.
 What kind of four is thatT be spluttered.
 Oats just plain w'eat four"
 Not on your life" said the miner, with the firmress of great conviction. Its full of yeast powders. Why, it's r'arin' and risin' like a buckln' hoss. I'm plumb seasick." He laid a zigxag course for the door.
 Were you goin'?" asked Poleon.
 I'm goin' to get somethin' for this stomach trouble. It's fierce" He de scended into the darkness boldly and stepped off with confidence--this time too soon. Poleon heard him founder. ing about, his indignant voice raised irascibly, albeit with note of tri- umph.

A Difference of Opinion.

It is highly amusing to notice the
difference Of opinion existing among
the people Of the city when a public
building or monument is to be put up
and how positive the different people
are in their opinion. Take for exam
pie the Lincoln monument which Mr..
Calkins has so kindly promised to have
erected at his own expense in Library
Park, near the northeast corner. There
is certain set Of people who are sure
in their own mind that it ought to be
placed in the south end Of the park
another set are just as positive that it
ought to be placed in Eichelman Park,
some of the north siders insist that
the only place is in the north side park,
while dozens Of our citizens tell you
that the only place to erect the monu-
ment is on Market Square. Then there
is also the usual crowd who say "put
it where you want to, but don't put
it where you are going to-" No mat
ter where the monument was to be plac-
ed there would be the same criticism,
the same number of opinions given and
the amusing part of the whole matter
is that each crowd or set of "opinion-
ers' are absolutely sure that their
opinion is correct and that everyone
who doesn t agree with them is wrong.
AS we understand it, Mr.. Calkins pro-
cured the services of an expert monu-
ment man, one who has placed monu-
ments all over the United States and
he pointed out the place where the
monument should be placed and gave
his reasons. Mr. Calkins proposes to
place the monument, with the permits
sion of the Council, in the position
designated by the expert; and mas
mulch as Mr.. Calkins is paying for the
monument and he is following expert
opinion as we'll as his own good judg-
ment, it would seem that the best
advice the balance of us could take
would be "don It butt in. - 1t will be
remembered when the soldiers monu
ment and the library were put up the
city was filled with opinions and ad
vice as to where to place them.

The Office of Justice

Kenosha people as a. rule are too
prone to regard Municipal Elections as
a Joke and there are few cities in the
state where the joker in politics is so
successful as in Kenosha. just for the
Joke of it incompetent men are elected
to office and many men who go into a
voting machine and vote to turn the
affairs over to these men would not
employ the same men in mental
capacity for their private business.
Jokers get a place on the Council, on
the School Board, are elected as con-
stables and members of Town Boards.
In these places they will Of course
prove of no value to their constituents
and they prove a source OF great an
noyance to men who are honestly seek
ing to serve the city. There is one
place in the city thatii bad place for
Joker and that is the Office Of justice
of the peace. There are few offices
in the gift Of the voters of the city so
important. The justice Of the peace
as an examining magistrate has wide
powers and it is possible for him to
block the wheels of justice in the most
important cases by single decision
It is the duty of the people of the
city to select man for Justice who
can 90 into the office with clean hands.
1t is greatly to he desired that; the man
named be an attorney or at least
man who has some understanding OF
the law as applicable to the Justice
Courts Such man would be big
aid to the Judicial system oof the city
and county. At the present time there
is not a Justice of the peace in Keno
sha county who has been admitted to
practice law. Lawyers as rule shun
the office of justice on account OF a
false idea that the service in the Of
fee of justice hampers him in his
future law practice This idea lis
fallacious on it's face for there is mo
school of instruction In criminal law
that is more helpful to the lawyer than
that he finds ia the duties of the JUS
tice office. Here he can render a real
service to his community and at the
same time render a service to himself
by familiarizing himself with the laws
of his state. There are many examples
of men who have made their .legal
careers largely through their work in
the Justice Court. Some of these men
it is true came up from the great class
of non-lawyers seeking the Office, but
others were picked for the Office from
the ranks of the lawyers.
The question is one of consideration
for the lawyers as well as for other
voters of the city, but it is just as in
teresting and important to one class as
the other. The office of justice Of the
peace like every other officer of the
judiciary should be non-partisan one
and the men elected to the Office should
be man selected rather for his quail
fcations to hold the Office rather than
his loyalty to any political party.

fcer, must permit me to know their

shall act on anonymous information re-
garding any violations of law. I be-
ieve the object Of all law is to make
it easy for people to do right and hard
to do wrong. [ always try to keep
this in mind in my duty as an officer
and no one yet can say I ever brought
innocent people in trouble because of
any information given me concerning
any crime or misdemeanor. Persons
not having confidence enough in my
good sense and sympathy for the limo
cent suffering ones, need not trouble
themselves to write me letters without
their name attached This knowledge
must be had as a protection to the
officer and guarantee that the informa-
ton is true. How do [ know but that
this may be a huge joke being played
on me by parties who have not better
sense? L have never yet betrayed any
confidence placed in me as an officer by
any man, woman or child. The real
criminal is the one I am after, the
man who is responsible for the crime
and makes it hard for people to do
right. After reading this over careful

shall only be too glad to shield them
and protect them as desired, but must
have their confidence to this extent.

The Bow Criminal

A seventeen-year-old boy has been
arrested in Kenosha who without a
tremor in his voice tells the police
that he has committed seven burg
laries and has managed to get away
with the swag in every case. Not a
great while ago the announcement of
the work Of SO precocious a boy crimi-
nal would have excited comment all
over the country, but the constantly
increasing number of child criminals in
this country, and particularly in Ke-
nosha, has grown so great that the ar
rest of a boy for committing seven
burglaries excites no more than passing
comment. In the days when the old
Puritanical ideas in regard to the rails
ing Of children prevailed the arrest of
would have been considered a dis
grace so deep that the parents would
hide their heads in shame. Today
the boy criminal is taken as nothing
problem of the parental care of the
boy is brought out prominently and
there are criminal authorities who de-
clare that criminal under age is more
to be pitied than to be punished and
that the punishment should rest on the
parents and guardians. The regular
machinery Of the law will take care of
the boy and he will be sent to some
state institution where an effort will
be made to correct his faults and he
may come out useful man. The de-
mand today is protection for the
other children. The parents of today
are too engrossed with the work of
earning q living to give proper care
to the raising of the children. Boys
are allowed to run the streets at night,
are found in questionable places and
are constantly learning criminal ways
when they should be at home and in
bed. The man of the family is too apt
to pay more attention to his lodge, or
to the public house than he does to
his family. If the men of the city
who are raising families would give an
| HOuA a. Ody " tuC Uoy . duu gil 10 dAu 1Ct
the children know that they have real
interest in them it would develop a
feeling of comradeship between the
parent and child which would be SO
strong that the influence Of the parent
would be strong enough to prevent the
boy falling into the ways Of the street
and the boy criminal. The boys in
most cases find no entertainment, no
sympathy at home and they get out on
| the street and find it there among the
class which leads them into criminal
ways.
In most Of the cases Of the boy
criminals it will be found that the
laxity of the parent is largely at the
root of the delinquency of the boy
While the legislature is fighting over
passing bills to .legalize the length of
bed sheets in hotels it might be well
for them to take up this really great
problem Of making some way to throw
protection about the child so that he
may be kept from developing the
criminal nature. The much laughed at
curfew law is not such a bad thing in
the long run.

AID FOR FARMERS
State Department Of Labor Receives
Many Applications for Work

The commissioner of labor at Madi-
son is having such good success in sup
plying farmers throughout the state
with help that he has decided to seek
renters for all farmers desiring to rent
their farms. Any one owning farm
who desires tenant or any one desir-
ing to rent a. farm should write to the
commissioner of labor at Madison who
also has on file many applications from
persons desiring work on farms. Those
farmers who have not yet been supplied
should write him soon. The Bureau
of Labor is an institution maintained
by the state and its services can be Sc
cured without cost either to the labor
ing man or the farmer. The commits
sioner has hundreds of applications
from young men and married men all
experienced in farm work who desire
work on farms. Farmers should avail
themselves of this opportunity to get
help before the spring work begins be-
cause these applicants will seek work
elsewhere and will not be available
later in the year.

The comparison Of the fight on Step
