PUBLIC IS INVITED
 ID THE RECEPTION
Welcome to Governor Sloan Will Not Be a Full Dress Function.

The Arizona Society of Sons of the American Revolution under whose au- spices the public reception to Cover nor Sloan is to be given at the Ari- zona School of Music, Friday evening, desires the fact to be known that ev- erybody is expected to come dressed as he pleases and that there will be more business suits than evening clothes, more sack suits than swal- low-tails, in evidence on the occasion. Another pleasing feature of this popu- lar affair will be the limited number of persons to whom presentation will be made by the ushers. Not more than six people all told will be in the receiving line, the reception commit tee mingling with the guests and em- ploying themselves in their entertain ment
 This simple arrangement on the part of the management comments itself strongly, and for obvious req sons is bound to meet with general favor. Mrs. Geo. w. Vickers and oth- CTS of the Daughters of the American Revolution have been added to the reception committee and will assist in looking after the lady guests in par ticular

DEMOCRATS AND THE TARIFF.

DEMOChA1S AND HE 1At(lt Q
 It would have been an unnecessary waste of precious time yesterday to to divulge the location of the work shop where the democratic national platform was constructed. There had really been no secret about that. It was commonly reported before the Denver convention that the platform had already been prepared at Lincoln where for a week delegates who were afterward members of the platform committee were in conference with MT. Bryan, and it was understood. and we believe, never denied, that the original draft of the platform as it came from the committee exactly re- flected the views of the candidate who was as certain to be nominated as the platform was certain to be adopted. A few unimportant changes were made, but hardly the crossing of a "t" or the dotting of an "f' was ventured upon until the pro- posed change had been made known to MT. Bryan by long distance tele- phone
 In view of these well known facts the assertion of Senator Bacon yes terday that he was not bound by 5ao1,-o+;or. ,,--;ttap into a pIotfor,,, at midnight by few interested men" is nothing short of heresy.
 Mir. Bacon and other southern as well as democratic senators every where have both right and propriety on their side when they seek a req sonable degree of protection for their constituents, but they have neither right nor propriety on their side when they seek such protection by indirect means.
 MT. Bacon, it is true, is not bound by the democratic platform to any course harmful to his constituents, but neither he nor any other democrat of prominence raised a voice in pro test against any line or syllable in the platform relating to the tariff.
 The time has come when democrats who represent industries that are benefited by protection must for maIly dissent from the democratic view of the tariff which on paper has been as unchangeable as the laws fthe Medes and Persians MT. Sim mons, for instance, can neither satisfy his conscience nor convince the coun- try of his sincerity by demanding a protective rate for lumber and call ing it a revenue rate.

departed deserting the girl and carrying
q bag of rubies. Baraka gathered all the
gems she could carry, and started in pur-
suit. Margaret Donne (Margarita da
Cordova), a famous prima donna. became
engaged In London to Konstantin Lo-
go<het, wealthy Greek financier. Her
intimate friend was Countess Leven.
known as Lady Maud. whose husband
had been killed by a bomb In st. Peters,
burg; and Lady Maud's most Intimate
friend was Rufus Van Torp. an Ameri-
can, who had been a cowboy In early
VIE, but had become one of the richest
men In the world. Van Torp was In love
with Margaret, and rushed to London as
soon as he heard of her betrothal. He
offered Lady Maud 100000 for her pet
charity II she would aid him In winning
the singer from Logothet. Baraka APP
preached Logotheu at Versailles with
rubies to sell. He presented a ruby to

Barak took several little twists of
tissue paper from the bag, laid them
in row on the tablecloth and then
began to open them one by one. Each
tiny parcel contained ruby. and when
the young man counted them there
were five In all, and they were fine
stones If they were genuine: but Mr..
Van Torp was neither credulous nor
easily surprised. When Barak looked
to see what impression he had pro

was disappointed.

there was something about this ones
manner that was not assumed. Barak
took the finest of the stones with the
tips OF his slender young fingers, laid
1t In the palm of his other hand, and
held 1t under Mr.. Van Torp's eyes
looking at him with an inquiring ex
preston. But the American shook his
head
No rubies to-day, thank you." he
said.
Barak nodded quietly. and at once
began to wrap up the stones. each in
its own bit of paper. putting the twists

Barak was indeed violently affected
by the sight of the uncut ruby. and
his face had changed in n startling
way; great vein like a whipcord sud-
denly showed itself on his smooth
forehead straight up and down; his
lids had opened so wide that they un-
covered the white of the eye almost
all around the iris; he was biting his
lower lip SO that 1t was swollen and
blood-red against the little white
teeth; and moment before Mr.. Van
Torp had called out to his servant, the
young man had reeled visibly. and
had not caught the slender waist and
supported the small head against his
shoulder with his other hand

therefore Mr.. Van Torp called to him
in vain, and meanwhile stood where
he was with his arm round Barak.
and Barak's head on his shoulder; but
as no one came at his call. he lifted
the slim figure gently and carried 1t
towards the sofa, and while he was
crossing the large room with his bur-
den the palpable truth was forced
upon him that his visitors slimness
was more apparent than real. and an
affair Of shape rather than of pounds.
Before he had quite reached the
lounge, however. Barak stirred. wrig-
gled in his arms. and sprang to the
