 The task presents its own difficult ties, however, and the heat already engendered is an expected result.
 In several of the counties during the late campaign, it appeared to be a fixed belief on the part of both the prohibitionists and their opponents that the plan of direct legislatin" would work to the destruction of the other fellow"
 And as to the existing controversy over the details of local option, it appears, as usual, that the rampant prohibitionist and the rampant saloon man are again alike in one particular each is declining to look beyond the point of his own nose. For ex- ample, in the application of the local option principle to Maricopa county, the time is not far distant when con- ditions will very probably be reversed as to relative voting strength in the country and in the city of Phoenix. A majority outside the city is for pro- hibition. A majority in the city is against prohibition, but the prohibition advocates believe they would have majority of the total vote, because they got a majority in a local option look the fact that the population of the city is growing much faster than the population of the country. They also overlook the fact that as a city grows in size the sentiment for pro- hibition is generally weakened-for for reasons not at present necessary to discuss, as we are referring merely to the fact. A few years hence, when Phoenix has a population of fifty thousand, the city vote will greatly overbalance the country vote.
 The advocates of prohibition now insist upon the county unit" as the basis of local option. If they suc- ceed in making the county unit" a principle of the constitution, they are sure to see the time when they may regret their energetic actions of the present, for it is well within the that the time will come and come soon-when the city of would have the power under this arrangement to vote saloons into existence in the country and in the

CHAPTER III.

A few days after she had talked
with Lady Maud, and before Mr.. Van
Torp's arrival, Margaret had gone
abroad, without waiting for the
promised advice in the matter of the
wedding gown. With admirable re-
gard for the proprieties she had quite
declined to let Logotheti cross the
channel with her, but had promised
to see him at Versailles, where she
was going to stop few days with her
mothers old American friend, the ex-
cellent Mrs. Rushmore, with whom
she meant to go to Bayreuth to hear
"Farsifal' for the first time.
Mrs Rushmore had disapproved pro-
foundly of Margaret's career, from the
first. After Mrs. Donne's DEATH she
had taken the forlorn girl under her
protection, and had encouraged her to
so on with what she vaguely called
her music lessons" The good lady
was one of those dear, old-fashioned,
kind, delicate-minded and golden
hearted American women we may
never see again, now that progress"

reckless grammar gave it strength

story, and it was good to read. She

well" he said aloud, in tone of
doubt, after minute or two.
But he said no more, for he was
much too reticent and sensible a per-
son to talk to himself audibly even
when he was alone. and much too eau
tious to be sure that a servant might
not be within hearing, though the door
was shut, He stood before the win
dow nearly a quarter of an hour, think
ing that Lady Maud might come back,
but as no sound of any step broke the
silence he understood that he was
not to see her again that day, and he
quietly let himself out of the house
and went off, not altogether discon-
tented with the extraordinary impress
sion he had made.
Lady Maud sat alone upstairs, so
absorbed in her thoughts that she did
not hear the click of the lock as he
opened and shut the front door
She was much more amazed at her
self than surprised by the offer he had
made. Temptation, in any reasonable
sense of the word, had passed by her
in life, and she had never before UNI
derstood what 1t could mean to her.
She was eight-and-twenty years of
age and a widow, and now it came
to her suddenly in a shape of ire
mendous strength, through her trusted
friend, who had helped her for years
to help others. It(was real tempta-
ton. The man who offered her a mil.

from a life of unspeakable horror,

or ten millions perhaps. No one knew

on it.
The duel for Margarets hand had
begun; Van Torp had aimed blow
that might well give him the advan-
tage if it went home; and Logotheti
himself was quite unaware of the
