the State were doing likewise and public opinion about

volume. Barker perceived with increasing ceaness, that
it was great opportunity for with his oraorcal
powers to make reputation and he thought now OF
little else
Late afternoon he sroled from the hotel toward
the Capitol and the way he joined by his friend,
Harkins. The two said little and walked slowly.
The cold had not relaxed its grip particle. The
surface of the still sheet of ice, and on the
hills every bough and twig was in shining mail The
sinking poured over it all flood of yellow light.
Barker glanced tip once, but he dazzled by the
sunlight reflected in a blaze of gold from the dome of
the Capitol and he turned his eyes back to the and
his mind to the bill. Then he and Harllins began to

about an entry.
The court had adjourned some time since, and the
clerk was gone The two turned away, but when they

Harkns with a short, but not bad-humored laugh
"Whney is dead in love with the girl and guess she's

''She has" said young Barker with emphasis, and
then he added with certain amount OF envy IN ms

on this schoobl that will attract the attention OF
the whole State.
The lobbyist again laughed in dry but on the whole

Whitney's mind now" he said. No, sir, no such dry
subject for him; it's loves young dream that nusty

been referred made divided report, majority for the

with western fire. and then at the desk OF the Judges

slightly that his companion did not the movement

Anyhow, I'll get it and give it back to him. said the
lobbyist, and crossing the he took the manuscript
from the desk and returned to Barker.
There good arguments in this, he said, thought

Others will probably think of them before the fight

Do you think SOP" asked Barker as he glanced out
of the window and saw Whitney, and Evelyn walking
side by side down the walk through the Capitol grounds

"Ifs easy enough to see," said Mr.. Harkins. Here
take it along to your room and look it over, and if he
has changed anything since he wrote 1t you can tell just
how his mind works"
He thrust the manuscript into Barkers hands in
careless manner as much as to say It's merely sug

about. -

Harkins as they walked on but not very deep. A

this rare freedom. When people asked Barker how he
going to- speak and vote he would shake his head
and say, while his eye lighted up with fine twinkle
"Od man. don't press me; this is a hard question and
may change my mind at the very last moment"
The fateful day at last and the bill brought

whole chamber glowed with the vivid colors of the
ladies dresses Evelyn there the front, where
she could look down upon the members and where her
eyes could meet Whitney's every time he looked up
She was bright-eyed eager and full of confidence In

without genial words for old friends On the floor of
the House was Mr. Barker bent somewhat over his
desk and never looking once at the balconies
The pages tiptoed about, the members moved but lit
tie there was throughout the House the intent,
pectant silence that betokens the expected coming of
some great event Despite the report of the committee
nobody knew what the fate OF the bill was gong to be-
they could not even guess.
The speeches began, two or three of minor Importance
were made, and then up sprang Mr. Barker who was
promptly recognized by the speaker thrill ran
through the assembly. Mr.. Barker, known, had
the gift OF oraory and lately it reported that he
too, like Whitney, would make great speech. The
skirmshers out of the way and the big guns were
opening fire.
Mr. Barker made slful use of the preliminary pause
that is of so much value to an orator. demanding as il
were the attention of the audience and keyng up
the proper pitch His eye rested moment on Whitney
and then passed quickly on, before the look could be
returned.
He lifted his hand slightly and then began the best
speech that Alfred Barker made The House was
amazed and delighted the members had expected beau

tones of voice that could express every range of
ton but not the keen and powerful logic that he
showed not the convincing sentences that he piled one
upon another until his argument grew weghty and

than one member under his breath but the deepest sigh
of content uttered by Mr., HarlSins down in his
obscure corner.

could Barker restrain his silent tribute. He knew
that it great speech and feeling of jealousy and
envy eaped into life. He, too orator, why could
he not have thought of those things which must appeal
so powerfully to the mind of every listener? 1t seemed
to him that nothing could be left of the bill after Whit
ney got through with it.
The hand of the lobbyist presently fell gently upon
the shoulder of Barker and drew him inside the room

1t was long speech, but good that the time of de-

applauded with great enthusiasm
" 1t was spendidly DONE" she said proudly, when he
came down from the dais.
He smiled not with vanity but with fondness for her.

the GOVERNOR SHOULD CON
TINUE THE FIGHT.

The question Of the Governors
abandoning his long and brayely
fought purpose Of investigating The
official conduct Of the Police Com
missiouers Of Baltimore City is now,
in some quarters, being strongly
sgitated. The reasons assigned for
such action, however, are flimsy and
the Governor seems difinclined to
yield to the influence that is urging
Lim to such a step, and in his apPar-
emit determination Of purpose to go
on with the fight we most heartily
concur.
The underlying motive actuating
many Of his would b. advisors is
politics and personal reasons are
governing others, with little or no
thought Of the public good. If the
Governors action in undertaking the
investigation was prompted by per
sonAl peake or narrowminded poll
Tics then he has belittled the dignity
Of the high Office he holds in the
undertaking. If on the contrary,
and We must assume the fact, be-
cause the Governor is Of too high an
order Of man to stoop to engage in
playing peanut politics and the First
Office Of the State forbids that the
incumbent thereof should ever so
traducs the exalted place as to make
Of it an instrument to CRAFTY person
al revenge or to advance selfish
motives, that the Governor had good
reason for believing that the Police
department Of Baltimore City need
ed reforming and to do that, a full
understanding Of the situation should
be had, then it would not only be
cowardics on the part Of his Excel
leney to lay down at this stage of the
proceedings but unjust and unfair to
the people. Aud again, suppose
there Is nothing practical in the
Governors purpose what harm can
the Investigation do. If nothing ID
found wrong nobody is hurt, il on
the contrary crookedness exists, OF
weak places in the department exist
that need repairing lots Of good will
come Of it Investigation as prin
ciple, anyhow, is right. 1t is !
healthy program in official depart
ments as well as in business enter
prises. Apart from detecting wrong
IL any exists it has the tendency t.
keep public officials as well as per
sons engaged in private enterprise
toeiug strictly to the line of duty.
The lesson Of Archer, the default
ing State Treasurer Is directly il
point. Had decerning eye and
strict tab been kept on the State'i
securities the Treasury could no
have been robbed, at least not tC
the extent it was, and a good man
possibly, saved from degradation
and disgrace. We are behind the
Governor, in his investigation of the
Police department whether anything
wrong is found or not. We favor
his action as healthy purpose and
we sincerely hope be will not be
frightened by unwholesome epitheti
