crossing the stream, yet they were
not at all liable to return to this side
and thus reveal their identity. To
attempt any further advance would be
madness. but he felt perfectly secure
from molestation SO long as he re-.
manned quietly on the north shore.
Those shots were merely a warming
to keep back; the very fact that the
men firing kept concealed was proof
positive that they simply wished to be
left alone. They were not afraid of
what he knew now, only DESTROYS of
not being seen. Confident as to this,
he retreated openly, without making
the slightest effort to conceal his
movements, until he had regained the
scene of murder. In evidence of the
truth of his theory no further shots
were fired, and although he watched
that opposite sand bank carefully, not
the slightest movement revealed the
presence of others. That every mo-
ton he made was being observed by
keen eyes he had no doubt, but this
knowledge did not discomfort him.

vealment would keep his watchers at
a safe distance. Whoever they might
be they were evidently more anxious
to escape discovery than he was fear
full of attack, and possessed no desire
to take his life, unless it became
necessary to prevent recognition.
They still had every reason to believe
their attack on the wagons would be
credited to hostile Indians, and would

was utterly without caution, without

he felt capable of killing them even as
he would venemous snakes. It was a
perfectly plain trail to follow, for the

concealment, but had ridden away at

deeply into the soft turf. On this re.

the river bank, ain.:-g for the ford,
and almost before he realized it Keith
was himself at the waters edge where
the trail abruptly ended, staring
vaguely across toward the opposite

izing the futility of further pursuit

MORE EXCELLENT
REPORTS FROM
WESTERN CANADA
Grains Are Heading Out
Rapidly and Harvest Is
Now Approaching With
a Great Demand for
Harvest Help.

Last week it was pointed out In
these columns that there would be a
yield of about 200,000000 bushels Of
wheat throughout Western Canada, an
Increase of about 100,000,000 over the
previous year, and that the demand
for farm help was very great. Con-
firmation Of this news is to hand and
the cry still is for more help. The
Canadian authorities are hopeful that
the friends Of the 100000 or 100000
Americans who have gone to Canada
during the last few years will come to
che help of these people and induce
as many able-bodied men as they pos.
eibly can to take advantage of the
Tow rate which is being offered from
all points On the Canadian Boundary,
and particulars of which can be had
from any of the following Agents Of
the Canadian Government: M. Y. Nc

Every facility will be afforded men
of the right stamp to secure advantage
OF these low rates. To those who pro
pose to go, it may be said that they
will have this splendid opportunity OF
the excellent producing character OF
the lands in Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta. They will have the op-
portunity of seeing some of the great
est wheat fields in the world and prob
ably the largest yield Of wheat, oats
and barley that has ever been grown
on the Continent. And all this on
land some of which cost the settler
only the $1,000 necessary to enter for
his homestead, or, if he purchased,
In some cases, costing him from $500
to $1,000 per acre, but which is now
worth from $500 to $4,000 per acre.
Even at these prices the land is re.
markably cheap as will be realized
when the statement is made that from
20 to Is bushels per acre and over
of wheat are grown, netting the farm
err from $500 to $1,000 per acre; and
this on land that he got for nothing
or paid merely nominal price. In
fact the production shows that $500
to $4,000 per acre would be nominal
price for land that would produce as
these lands produce.

FARMER FOUNDATION

Representative Sisson of Mississip-

said:
''The great cities cannot thrive,
they cannot live single month. with

Is carried there to feed them. The
great factories cannot run without

events in the history of the country
and recalls to us the fact that If Gov

FREAK LEGISLATION.

In late years freak legislation has
become SO common as to hardly at
tract attention and the strange thing
about the matter is that the freakiest
of all the freak bills have been intro
duced in good faith and with firm
belief in the Importance of the meas
ure. The friends of reform have been
more disastrous to the cause than its
open enemies, for men who will stand
like a stone wall for good measure
when attacks are seriously made
against it will wilt and refuse to at
tempt to defend measure that is
being ridiculed.
The New Jersey member of the leg
islature who introduced the recent bill
to make married men wear rings
upon their thumbs, in order that they
might proclaim to all the world that
they had been matrimonially taken,
has done more to stop the enactment
OF some good law which would tend
to protect young and innocent women
against the wiles of adventures than
all the serious efforts of the white
slavers" could accomplish and will
tend to make such measures unpopular
at least for the time being.
The action of the Kansas solon who,
believing that the sight of shapely
limbs and dainty hosiery leads to i'm.
morality and vice. has introduced a
bill prohibiting the wearing of tights
and short skirts upon the stage, or in
public, in the state, has created sim.
ply an uproar of hilarity and the meas
ure Will be laughed to death in the
house of friends who really are ready
and willing to take any consistent
stand for public and private decency
That there is room for reform is not
questioned but the idea that show
troupes which depend upon the favor
of the public for livelihood are go
ing about disseminating vice and en-
couraging immortality is wrong for the
public are q decent people. To con
tend that chorus of pretty women

eye. to the strains OF enhancing music
