Mr.. Stephen Goldthwaite, postmas-
ter at Boone and editor OF the Boone
News, has declared himself for Taft
and Woods. 1t is queer combination.
Mr.. Woods has voted against every
thing the president has recommended.
The republican administration has had
no more consistent opponent in con-
gress than Mr. Woods has been. No
democrat from Texas has been count
ed oftener in the ranks of the oppo-
sition than has the psuedo-republican
from the Tenth district of Iowa. Eth
er the president or the member from
the Tenth district must have been
wrong. If Mr.. Woods has been justi-
fed in his votes the president was not
justified in his recommendations. If
the president has been right, Mr..
Woods has been wrong. One of them
may be deserving of a second term,
but not both.
Mr.. Goldthwaite is very kindly,
generous hearted man. He always ap-
preciates an act of kindness and it is
possible that his gratitude to the pres
ident who re-appointed him and to
the congressman who recommended
him has produced such an era of good
feeling in his bosom that he is willing
to make it another term all round re-
CARELESS of logic. We will admit that
Mr.. Godthwaite has been placed in
a delicate situation and he is doubt
less trying to eXtricate himself with
due regard to his personal obligations.
Under the circumstances, however,
neither his support of Taft or his sup
port of Woods will be of much value.

COMPTROLLER BAY.

Gentle reader, do you remember that
short time ago, few months ago,
the columns Of the up-lift press were
black in the face with headlines tell
ing of the Comptroller Bay frauds? Do
you remember that the voices of the
reformers were raised in shrieking
violence against the president and the
officials who had given Alaska's birth
right to syndicate, without even re-
ceiving the customary mess of pot
tage in return? Do you remember
that it was more than insinuated that
the president, if not dishonest, was a
fool? Do you remember that con-
gressional committee was appointed to
investigate these frauds? Do you re-
member that this committee was load
ed with enemies of the president, men
anxious to find fault? Do you remem-
Der these things, gentle reader?
Well, that investigating committee
has reported. If you search long and
we'll you may find in small paragraph
in the columns of some of the up
filters an account of the report of this
committee. 1t is just few lines with
a very small head and it tells the sor-
rowful story that no fraud was found,
no incompetency, no dishonesty, no
graft. It tells that no recommendation
is made which would tend to alter
anything that was done in the Comp
troller Bay incident and that no criti-
cism is offered. The committee does
urge future legislation for Alaska, ex-
actly in line with the presidents re-
peated recommendations.
Bat the Comptroller Bay incident
has done its work. All that it was in
tended or desired to accomplish. 1t
has implanted suspicion in the minds
of many honest men, men who will
never see or who will soon forget the
report of the committee, but who will
remember with some vagueness that
''there was something wrong about
that Comptroller Bay matter" This
is all the reformers wish. They are
making no effort to right the wrong
they did the president. There are no
black headlines now, no editorials, no
speeches. 1t is but part of the dirty
campaign of villifcation which is be-
ing conducted in the name of purity
in politics.

NOT MENACE TO NIAGARA.
Speaker Declares Draft for Electric
Power Is Not Damaging.

AT meeting of the Washington, Sec
ton. American Institute of Electrical En-
gineers. at 100 10Th street last evening
p. NJ. Lincoln OF the Westinghouse Elec-
trio and Manufacturing Company ad-
dressed the members on the subject Of
Water and Electric Power Development
at Niagara Falls
The speaker described in detail the
methods Of utilizing the tremendous
power available at the falls and pointed
out that, while electricity was generated
at Niagara more than twenty years ago
by power obtained from the cataract yet
the only market for the power at that
time was in the immediate vicinity, for
the reason that means for the economical
transmission Of electrical energy over
long distances had not yet been devised.
At the present time, however this power.
obtained from five power houses at the
falls. is transmitted over the surrounding
country for radius of 200 miles.
1t was declared that the beauty of the
falls had not been affected by the diver
sion of the water for commercial pur-
poses, as under treaty arrangements be-
tween the United States and Canada a
sufficient amount of water to affect the
appearance Of the falls could not be used,
the allotted amount not being even nearly
consumed by either country.
The address was illustrated with Ian
tern slides. Following the address re-
freshments were served.

CHAPTER XV.-Continued.

When they reached the post Melissa
went to the cabin with her bakneesh and
Jan to the companys store Tossing the
vines upon the table Melissa ran back to
the door and watched him until he disap-
peared. Her cheeks were flushed, her
lips half parted in excitement; and no
sooner had he gone from view than she
hurried to Iowaka's home across the
clearing.
1t was fully three-quarters of an hour
later when Jan saw Melissa, with To-
waka's red shawl over her head. walking
slowly and with extreme precision of step
back to the cabin
said to himself. watching her curiously
That is 1owaka's shawl and she has II
all about her head"
"A clear half inch of the rarest wool
from London" added the CHEEKY voice OF
Jean de Gravois. whose moccasins had
made no sound behind him. He always
spoke in French to Jan. There is but
one person in the world who looks better
IN 1t than your Melissa. Jan Thoreau, and
that Is Iowaka, my wife. Blessed saints
man. but Is she not growing more beauti.
full every day."
Yes said Jan. "she will soon be a
woman
"A woman" shouted Jean, who, not
having his caribou whip. jumped up and
down to emphasize his words. She will
reau? And II she is not woman at
thirty. with two children-God send others
like them!-when will she be, ask you?''
II meant Melisse,'' laughed Jan.
And meant 1owaka." said Jean. ''Ah.

Jean de Gravois is on his way home with
the sugar for which she sent him some
thing like an hour ago; for, you know. she
Is chef de cuisine Of this affair tonight.
All, she sees me not. and she turns back
heartily disappointed. I'll swear by all
the saints in the calendar! Did you ever
see figure like that, Jan Thoreau? And
did you ever see hair that shines so, like
the top feathers of raven who's nib
shine he can find? Deliver us. but I'll go
with the sugar this minute!"
The happy Jean hoped out, like a
cricket overburdened with life, calling
loudly to his wife. who came to meet him.
A few minutes later Jan thrust his head
In at their door as he was passing.
Il knew should get beating Or some
thing worse. for forgetting that sugar."

barred arms. "Dough-dough-doug h-I'm

Birthdays

The big room was empty when Jan
came quietly through the open door. He
stopped to listen and caught a faint laugh
from the other room and then another:
and to give warning of his presence, he
cOughed loudly and scraped a chair along
the floor. moments silence followed.
The farther door opened a little, and
then it opened wide and Melissa came
out.
Now, what do you think of me, Brother
JAM
She stood in the light of the window
through which came the afternoon sun,
her hair piled in glistening coils upon the
crown OF her head. as they had seen then,
eyes glowing questioningly at Jan.

There was seriousness in his voice
that made her come to him in her old
impulsive. half-childish way. She lifted
her hands and rested them on his Shout

ing him to toss her above his head.
IF I am prettier-and you like me this
way-why don't YOU
She finished with a sweet upturned
pouting of her mouth. and, with a sudden
laughing cry, Jan caught her in his arms
and kissed the lips she held up to him.

hot blush burning in his brown cheeks.

came a quick voice from the door, and
Jean de Gravois bounded in like a playful
cat scraping and bowling before Melissa
until his head nearly touched the floor.
Lovely saints, Jan ThOreau, but she is a
woman. just as my Iowaka told me! And
the cakes-the bread-the pies! You must

Melissa flung the red shawl over her
head, still laughing.
