from this section.

ern white farmers who work with their own hands
and work wisely well as hard-we need them
IN the South Many of them are sons and grand
sons of Southerners who went West and the South
was hurt by losing them. Now let the tables turn.
And II they don't know at first just how to adjust
themselves to our negro problem, let's be patient
with them. They learn enough, and the
worst trouble is that they usually whip clean
around and are unjust to the black man. l recall
That when was out in Nebraska some years ago
came into contact with some Indians who were
objects of great interest and curiosity to me- and
thought 1T something of privilege to talk and
eat with them until discovered that my Western
white friends thought of it much as should have
thought of a Westerner eating with negro in the
South.

The Weeks Happenings.

CONGRESSIONAL news of the past week in
\ cludes the refusal of the House. after bit
ter fight, to adopt the Senate Railroad Rate
bill and the referring of the measure to confer

Dor bill; the passage by the House Of the Postal
Savings Bank bill by vote of 195 to 101, twenty
four Democrats voting with the solid Republican

Administrations conservation measures.
In the recent Iowa primaries the Republicans
nominated eight progressive and three stand
pat candidates for Congress. The progressive
candidate for Governor also won by small ma
jority Both sides claim that they will control the
State convention. In South Dakota it will prob
ably require the official count to decide which
faction has won. In Pennsylvania Congressman

few hundred votes a progressive candidate
who charges fraud and is contesting the election.

Henry and one of the cleverest contemporary
short story writer's, died at New York last Sun

Professor Smith 81 years DID, and his views
were given weight on both sides of the Atlantic.
The New York Outlook, summing up the evil
dence in the Ballinger case, says: He can not
be regarded trustworthy custodian. The YER
dict of history will be that he did not understand
either the spirit and purposes of the people of
his time or the duties and functions of his high

The regular or Patterson Democratic pri-
mares in Tennessee last week brought out re-
markedly small vote. many counties holding no
election at all. The Republicans have endorsed

there will also be a general increase in the rates

 The first row of dragons was al- ready passing in front of her. Less than 200 feet away rolled the royal coach of gold.
 "An anarchist!' shouted King hoarse- ly. He looked like one himself. "The bomb! The bomb! Stop the princev'
 Colonel Quinnox recognized this bearded, uncouth figure and the flying, terrified girl at his heels. King was dragging her along by the hand.
 Quinnox alone prevented the dra- goons from cutting down the pallid madman who stumbled blindly toward the coaches beyond.
 "Stop the coachr' cried King.
 Panic seized the crowd. Olga Plata nova stood alone. her eyes wide and glassy, staring as if petriaed at the face of Truxton King.
 He saw the object in her wavering hand A plain. white faced farmer In a smock of blue was crossing the street with mighty bounds, his eyes glued upon the arm of the frail. terrified an- archist If he could only arrest that palsieds uncertain arm!

 Truxton King picked himself up from the street, dazed, bewildered, but unhurt. The revolutionists had begun the assault on the paralyzed minions of the government.
 He looked back toward the gory en- trance to osthe circus. There was Mar lanx,. mounted and swinging saber on high. Ahead was a mass of car riages, filled with the white faced, pal sicd prey from the court of Graustark. From somewhere near the spot where Olga Platanova fell came harsh, pen etrating command:
 "Cut them of! Cut them of from the castlev'
 It was his cue. He dashed into the street and ran toward the carriages, shouting with all his strength:

 royal coach of state, holding out his eager little hands to some one in the thick of the crowd that surged about him. He was calling some one's name, but no one could have heard him.
 Truxton's straining eyes caught sight of the figure in gray that struggled forward in response to the cries and the extended hand.
 "Aunt Lorraine! Aunt Loratner' He now heard the name the boy cried with all his little heart.
 Two officers struck at the uncouth, desperate American as he lifted the girl from the ground and deliberately tossed her into the coach.
 ''Turn backr' be shouted A horse man rode him down. He looked up as the plunging animals hoofs clattered about his head. Vos Engo, with drawn sword, was crowding up to the carriage door, shouting words of re- joicing at sight of the girl he loved.
 He caught glimpse of her, holding the prince in her arms, her white, agonized face turned toward the mob. Distinctly lie heard her cry: "Save him! Save Truxton kingW From the sidewalks swarmed well armed hordes of desperadoes, firing wildly into the ranks of devoted guardsmen. Truxton fled from the danger zone as fast as his strainel ankle would permit him. Bullets were striking all about him. Some one was shouting his name be hind in the scurrying crowd. He turn ed for a single glance backward. Little MT. Hobbs, paie as a ghost, his car gone his clothing torn, was panting al his elbow.

 In time she won him over. He agreed to carry them along the way : at his best speed until they came up with better heasts or reached the city gates. They climbed up to the seat, aud the tortuous journey began. The farmer trotted beside the wheel nearly all of the way, descending warmly in painful English on the present condi- tion of things in the hills.
 -sThe rsscals have made way with the beautiful Miss Tullis. She is the American lady stopping at the castle. Hcu should see her, sir. Excepting our dear Princess Yetive-Cod rest creature Graustark has ever seen-not quite so grand as the Countess Ingo- mede, but fairer, believe me. She is beloved by every one.

 @Do you know the great Count Mar 1anxr demanded King, possessed of a sudden thought. The man faced him at the mention of the name, a sus- picfcus gleam in his eyes.
 Count Marlanxi'' he snorted. There was no mistaking the angry scowl. ~Are you friends of that snake? If you are, get out of my cart"
 He's all rightw cried Truxton. ''Tell him who we are, Lorraine, and why we must get to the city"
 Five minutes later the farmer, over come by the stupendous news, was flashing his oxen with might and main The astonished beasts tore down the road to Rom so bravely that there seemed some prospect of getting a telegram through in time. At Rom they learned that the operator had been unable to call Edelweiss since T o'clock
 In time the city gates came in sight far up the straight, narrow road
 If seemed to the quivering Americans that the gates were mocking them by drawing farther away instead of com ing nearer.
 Near the gates, which were still open it occurred to him in a single fash ot dismay that he and Lorraine would be recognized and intercepted by Marlanz watchers.

dles into tAe tnrong of cutthroats, led by the grim old man with the bloody saber. In the center of the troop there was a flying carriage. The Duke of Perse was lying back in the seat, his face like that of dead man.
 "The prince is safer shouted King joyously. They'll make it! Thank God!'
 Colonel Quinnox turned in his sad dle and searched out the owner of that stirring voice.
 "Come"' he called.
 Even as King rushed out into the roadway a horseman galloped up from the direction of the castle He pulled his horse to his launches almost as he was riding over the lodging Amer ican.
 ''Herer' shouted the newcomer, scowling down upon the young man. Swing up here! Quick. you foolr'
 It was Vos Engo, his face black with fury. Quinnox had seized the hand of Mfr. Hobbs on seeing help for King and was pulling him up before him. There was nothing for Truxton to do but to accept the timely help of his rival. An instant later he was up behind him and they were off after the last of the dragoons.
 'If you don't mind. count, I'll try my luck" grated the American. Hold ing on with one arm. he turned and fired repeatedly in the direction of the bowling crowd of rascals.
 Ride to the barracks gates, Vos Engor' commanded Colonel Quinnox. "Be prepared to admit none but the royal reserves, who are under stand ing orders to report there in time of need"
 Over his shoulder Vos Engo hissed to his companion: "It was not idle heraics. my friend, nor philanthropy on my part. I was commanded to come and fetch you. She would never have spoken to me again if I had re- fused.''
 "She! An, yes, see! She did not forget me!' cried Truxton.
