EXPECT PRESIDENT
TO AID N. Y. REGULARS.

BEVERLY, Mass, Aug. 1S.-vice-
President Sherman's visit to President
Taft and the formers statement today
that the campaign in New York State
will be a straightout Republican plat
form, without any qualifying adjec-
tive" have caused much speculation
here as to the attitude the President
will assume
Great interest centres in the ques-
ton of whether or not there Is to be
harmony or warfare in the ranks of
the Regulars and the Insurgents. Up
to the last ten days there were signs
of peace on the basis of a readjust-
ment of leadership in the party.
Today it looks to be war to the
finish, the insurgents having at their
head Theodore Roosevelt and the reg
ulars-well, President Taft may join
them.
Mr.. Sherman's language is almost
identical with that Speaker Cannon has
employed in differentiating the regu-
lars from the insurgents, and seems to
be the official manner of throwing the
Insurgents out of the party and re-
stricting the use of the term Republi-
can to those who gather under the reg
ular banner.

During his service in the House he
was a member of the innermost circle
Of the old guard machine. In view of
the fact that he entered upon a fight
with Theodore Roosevelt for suprem-
acy in the approaching New York
state convention, and with Colonel
Roosevelt out in the open as a Pro-
gressive. it was accepted here as de-
cidedly significant that Mr.. Sherman
should express such views after an
extended interview with the President
It is learned that Mr.. Sherman had
put in most of the time of this confer

President should make to the campaign

that the President should write a letter

and putting forth the arguments for

The general impression here is that
the administration is definitely align
ing itself for the campaign with the
regulars; all hope of compromise or
reconciliation is abandoned, all attempts
at readjustment or reorganization are

II seemed to be melting away.
Then he knew. 1t was a lantern
in front of him, not more than ten
feet away. Consciousness flooded
him, and he made another effort
to cry out. to free his arms from
an invisible clutch that held him
Ipowerless. At first he thought
this was the clutch of human
hands; then, as the lantern-light
revealed more clearly the things
about him and the outlines of his
own figure, he saw that 1t was a
rope, and he knew that he was
unable to cry out because of
something tight and suffocating
about his mouth.
The truth came to him swiftly.
He had come up to the coyote on
a sledge. Someone had struck
him. He remembered that men
had half-dragged him over the
rocks, and these men had bound
and gagged him, and left him
here, with the lantern staring him
in the face. But where was he?
He shifted his eyes, straining to
penetrate the gloom. Ahead of
him, just beyond the light, there
was a black wall; he could not
move his head, but he saw where
that same wall closed in on the
left. He turned his gaze upward,
and 1T ended with that same i'm
lprisoning barrier of rock. Then
he looked down, and the cry of
horror that rose in his throat died
in muffled groan. The light
fell dimly on a sack-two of them
|-three-a tightly packed wall of
them.
He knew now what had hap
pened. He was imprisoned in the
coyote, and the sacks about him
were filled with powder. He was
sitting on something hard-a box
fifty pounds of dynamite! The
cold sweat stood out in beads on
his face, glistening in the lantern
glow. From between his feet a
thin, white, ghostly line ran out
until 1t lost itself in the blackness
under the lantern. 1t was the
fuse leading to the box of dyna-
mite on which he was sitting!
Madly he struggled at the
thongs that bound him until he
sank exhausted against the row of
powder sacks at his back. Like
words of fire the last warning of
Meleese burned in his brain
You must go, tomorrow-tomor
row-or they will kill you!" And
this was the way in which he was
to die! There famed before his
eyes the terrible spectacle which
he had witnessed few hours be-
fore-the holocaust of fire and
smoke and thunder that had dis
rupted mountain, a chaos of
writing, twisting fury, and in
that moment his heart seemed to
cease its beating. He closed his
eyes and tried to calm himself.
Was 1t possible that there lived
men so fiendish as to condemn
him to this sort of death? Why
had not his enemies killed him
out among the rocks? That would
have been OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
troublesome. Why did they wish
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1910-10-20

When he looked again his gaze
fell on the little yellow tongue of
flame in the lantern globe. 1t was
not the steady, unwinking eye of
few minutes before. There was
a suffering weakness about it
now, and as he watched the light
grew fainter and fainter. The
flame was going out. A few min
utes more and he would be in
darkness. At first the Significance
of it did not come to him; then
he Strengthened himself with a
jerk that frightened the thong
about his neck until it choked
him. Hours must have passed
since the lantern had been placed
on that rock, else the oil would
not be burned out of it now!
For the first time Rowland
realized that it was becoming
more and more difficult for him
to get breath. The thing about
his neck was tightening, slowly,
inexorably, like a hot band of
steel, and suddenly, because of
this tightening, he found that he
had recovered his voice.
This damned rawhide-is
pinching- myAdam's apple"

STORIES.
PUNCTURED

The cock and bull stories being
circulated by members of the Ro-
tary club and others interested in
the private docks who want to kill
off the proposition for municipal
docks are being regularly pune
tured by the city officials.
According to the statements of
the real estate spectators and the
dock owners who have axes to
grind Tacoma is hopelessly in debt
for bonds now and to buy munich
pal docks would be awful. They
are telling that Tacoma has $12,-
100000 of bonded debt, which is
just three times the truth.
Commissioner of Finance Free
land has Issued a statement show
ing that the city has just $4,59S,-
600 out In bonds.
There Is another lot of warrant
securities on the power plant and
gravity water system of $3,439,-
600, but these are no more city
debts than the bonds of the r.
r. & p. The water plant pays it's
own and the light plant pays its
debts. The people are not taxed a
cent.
Another fraud the dock owners
and realty spectators are trying
to put off on the public is that
the city has 81, 465,000 in local i'm
provement bonds.
This is no more a city debt than
the mortgages on the real estate
owned by various citizens. These
bonds are a private debt against
certain real estate that has been
improved. The city is not even
guarantor in the case. All it does
is collect the money and hold 1t
In trust and pay 1t over.

The Hour IF death

A red unwinkdng eye staring at
him fixedly from out of impene-
trable gloom-an ogreish, gleam-
ing thing that brought life back
into him with a thrill of horror
was Howland's first vision of re-
turning consciousness. 1t was
dead in front of him, on a level
with his face-a ball of yellow fire
that seemed to burn into his very
soul. He tried to cry out, but no
sound fell from his lips; he strove
to move, to fight himself away,
but there was no power of move
ment in his limbs. The eve grew
larger. He saw that 1t was so
bright 1t cast halo, and the halo
widened before his own staring
eyes until the dense gloom about

The gloom of night falls early
in the great northern mid-winter,
and 1t was already growing dusk
when there came the sound of a
voice outside, followed a moment
later by loud knock at the door.
AT Howland's invitation the door
opened and the head and Shout

him swearing about it. He's in a

Half an hour later the sledge
drew up close to the place where
Rowland had seen a score of men
packing bags of powder and dyna-
mite earlier in the day. Half a
dozen lanterns were burning
among the rocks, but there was
no sign of movement or life. The
engineers companion gave a sud
den sharp crack of his long whip
and - response to it there came a
muffled halloo from out of the
gloom.
That's Macdonald, sir. You'll
find him right up there near that
light, where the coyote
opens up. He's grilling the life

steps when a dark object shot out
behind him and fell with crushing
force on his head. With a groan-

For few moments he was con-

In this hour of death question aft

head, and he answered no one of
them. He sat still for a time,
scarcely breathing. There was
no sound, save the beating of his
own heart. Then there came an
