Especial Dispatch 20 the Morning JourneI1
las Vegas, \. NJ. Sept. 3o.--'rhe
first republican state convention con-
cluded its labors early this morning
with the nomination of a full state
ticket ana two members of congress.
While there are some good men on
the ticket, as a whole it falls far short
of what was expected of the party ON
the shoulders of which rest in large
measure the responsibility for the
future prosperity of g great state. The
candidates for the supreme bench
are all regarded as strong men and
men in whom the voters will not heSi-
tate to vest the authority to conduct
the tribunals upon which in the last
analysis depends the very existence
of orderly government in New MeM-
co and the protection of the rights of
every citizen.
On the other hand there are men
on the ticket whose very names are
synonymous with machine politics
Men whose records the party will find
It difficult to explain and defend ana
men in whom the Independent voters
win hesitate long before supportinl
should the democratic party by any
chance select a strong ticket.
This morning when the convention
had finally adjourned many loyal re-
publicans were heard TO express the
belief that the dominant party in the
now state had failed to take fun ad'
vantage OF the opportunities afforde,
to organize free, enlightened anC
progressive government after so many
years of vassalage and tutelage 10y
selecting from its members list o
candidates who could be depended up
on to sweep the state to the end tina
New Mexico might strengthen th'
hand of the republican president ant
the republican party in the nation
That the party has plenty of suci
men there can be no doubt but ma
chine politics and the lack of prope
interest in former elections places I'M
members of the ruling party in tn
position where they must either sup
port ticket with many weak spot
in it or 90 over to the democrats.
The convention did not get down t.
business until nearly 6 O'Clock las
evening. the entire day being deVote'
to caucuses and conferences. IN
supporters of Secundino Romero ang
cred at the defeat of their candidat
for governor, were determined I

cd up by the men who effected thei
downfall.
Mr.. Romero took his defeat cheer
fully and announced his determi

ticket as nominated His followers

he poured out flowed back in tens Of

Dawson grew rapidly that winter Of
1896. Money poured In on Daylight
from the sale of town lots. He prompt
~ invested 1t where 1t would gather
more. In fact, he played the danger
GUS game of pyramiding, and no more
perilous pyramiding than In a placer
camp could be imagined. But he
played with his eyes wide open.
Corner lots in desirable locations
sold that winter for from ten to thirty
thousand dollars. Daylight sent word
out over the trails and passes for the
newcomers to bring down Iog-rafts,
and, as a result, the summer OF 1897
saw<his saw mills working day and
night, on three shifts, and still he had
logs left over with which to build
cabins. These cabins, land included,
sold at from one to several thousand
dollars. Two-story log buildings, in
the business part of town, brought him
from forty to fifty thousand dollars
apiece. These fresh ~accretions of cap
ital were Immediately invested In 9TH
err ventures. He turned gold V e and
over, until everything that he touched
seemed to turn to gold.
With the summer rush from the Out
side came special correspondents for
the big newspapers and magazines,
and one and all, using unlimited space,
they wrote Daylight up; SO that. SO far
as the world was concerned, Daylight
doomed the largest figure In Alaska. OF
course, after several months, the
world became interested In the Span

in the Klondike Itself Daylight still re-
NAMED the most prominent figure.

One day In December Daylight filled
a pan from bedrock on his own claim
and carried 1t into his cabin. Here a
fire burned and enabled him to keep
water unfrozen In a canvas tank. He
squatted over the tank AMI began to
wash. Earth and gravel seemed to Ali
the pan. AS he impaired to 1t q cir
cular movement the lighter, coarser

At times he combed the surface with
his fingers, raking out handfuls OF
gravel. The contents of the pan d.

moment and thought long thoughts.
Then he finished the washing, and
weighed the result In his scales. At
the rate OF sixteen dollars to the
the pan had contained seven hundred
and odd dollars. 1t was beyond any
thing that even he had dreamed. His
fondest anticirations had gone no
farther than twenty or thirty thousand
dollars to a claim; but here were
claims worth half 3 million each at the
least, eyen II they were spotted.
He did not go back to work In the
shaft that day, nor the next. nor the

light stampeding outfit, including his
rabbit skin robe, strapped on his back,
he was out and away on a ~many-days'
tramp over creeks and divides, In
speeding the whole ~neighboring terri
tory. On each creek he was entitled
to locate one claim, but he was
chary In thus ~surrendering up his
chances. On bunker Creek only
did he stake a claim. Bonanza

source, while every little draw and
pup and gulch that drained into 1t was
likewise staked. Little faith was had
In these side-streams. They had been

light was a man absolutely without
fear. But BEETLES and Dan Macdonald
and other s~ourdoughs shook their
heads and laughed as they mentioned
women. And they right. He had
always been afraid of them from the
time, himself a lad Of seventeen, when
Queen Anne, Of Juneau, made open
and ridiculous love to him. For that
matter, he never had known women.
Born In a mining-camp where they
were rare and mysterious, having no
sisters, his mother dying while he was
an infant, he had never been In con-
tact with them.
him his final fright. She was found
morning dead in her cabin. A
shot through the head had done 1t,
and she had left no message, no ex-
PLANTATION. Then came the talk. Some
wit, voicing public opinion, called 1t q
case Of too much Daylight. She had
killed herself because OF him Every.
body knew this, and said SO. The cor
respondents wrote 1t up, and once
Burning Daylight, King Of the

When she first arrived from Circle
City, she had earned her living by
washing clothes. Next. she had bought

mittens. Then she had gone as a clerk
into the First Yukon Bank. All this,
and more, a known and told, though
one and all were agreed that Day
light, while the cause, had been the
innocent OF her untimely end.
And the worst or II was that Day.
light knew 1t was true. Always would
he remember that last night he had
seen her. He had thought nothing Of
1t at the time; but, looking back, he
was haunted by every little thing that
had happened. In the light OF the
tragic event, he could understand
everything-her quietness. that calm
gertrude as il all vexing questions OF
living had been smoothed out and
were gone, and that certain ethereal
sweetness about all that she had said
and done that had been almost mater
nal. He remembered the way she had
looked at him. how she had laughed
when he narrated Mickey Dolan's mis-
take In stalking the fraction on Shook
um Gulch. Her laughter had beer
lightly joyous, while at the same time
1t had lacked Its oid-time robustness

dued. On the contrary, she had beer

peace She had fooled him, fool that
he was. He had even thought tina
night that her feeling for him hat

be theirs with this perturbing love
