/ to thy hand. Now slay him while h,
sleeps"
"Say but the word and he is deaC
man." whispered another, licking hi
grim lips.
Before the eyes of David rose the
vision of an old, old man, amounting {
ruddy boy and rumbling words Of
kingship and one chosen by the Lord
who in the days to come should rule
the land. Was the time come? He
shook himself. The thing was beyond
him. He minded the time when this
same sleeping king had offered the
ruddy boy his own armor to go out and
fight against Goliath of Gath. And
had afterward taken him into his
house and reared him with his own
son.
His followers saw him tiptoe for
ward, knife in hand, and bend above
the sleeping king. They poised to
hear the impact of blow. What was
he doing, crouching there so long.
David came back, and they saw held
in his hand ragged piece of the
skirt of the kings robe.
And in a little while the king
stirred in his sleep, awoke, and went
out of the cave. When he was gone
their leader motioned them to follow
him. 1t had been a mad thing, to let
the king go so, but there was no one
of the band who cared to tell him so.
The king was out of bowshot, but
not out of earshot, down below there
on the side of the hill. And David
stood boldly out and called to him,
from the top of fiat rock:
"Why dost thou bark" he cried, "to
those who say that David seeks the
kings hurt? Behold, this day have
thine own eyes not seen the thing is
false? For the Lord delivered Saul
into mine hand in the cave; and there
were those who babe me kill thee,
which l might have done by stretching
out hand; see, now, my father, how
| hold the skirt of thy robe in my
hand, cut off with mine own dagger,
and judge if there be any sin in me-
"The Lord judge between thee and
me, and the Lord avenge me of thee;
yet will l not lift mine hand against
the Lords anointed."
And Saul beheld him, and he lifted
up his voice and wept And he said:
"Thou art more righteous than l,
and thou hast rewarded me with good
for evil. The Lord will reward thee
for the good thou hast done me. And
now hear my voice, son of Jesse. For
know now thou shalt surely be king, |
nor shall any son of Saul sit on the
.hrone of Israel. Swear to me now
hat in that day thou wilt not slay
ny descendants, nor seek their blood
IS | have sought thine"
81 swear the thing"
Then Saul went down to his house,
)ut David abode in the hills.

THAT EXPOSE"

The Index knows very little abou
the so-called expose of the preser
county officials. If their misdeeds an
dereictions have nothing more t
them than is indicated by the Cald
well Tribune, they are so thin as t
be ridiculous. The Tribune says:
There are two or three men
in the county court house who
have devoted the greater part of
their time during the past few
months in looking up the county
records. This work was done on
county time. After working for
weeks two great scandals were
unearthed. The first is that last
summer the county officials made
a Jug of lemonade and used sugar
purchased by Canyon county,
The janitor at the court house
believes in advertising and placed
a sign over the jug which read:
"All YOU want to drink for III
cents. Candidates 20 cents" 1t
is not stated whether or not any
money was received from the
lemonade. If there was money
received it went to make another
Jug of lemo instead of finding its
way into the county treasury. The
second scandal was that on her
own time one of the young ladies
at the court house made out the
nomination papers for candidate
y and charged him quarter for the
yervices. This quarter did not
find its way into the county treas
ury.
The two items are the net re-
suits of months of investigation
conducted by Treasurer Monk and
assisted by deputy in the office
of the county recorder. 1t is rea-
sonable to assume that the whole
story has been told. These men
would not have made themselves
ridiculous with their lemonade
story if they had anything else
to offer.
The fact of the matter is that Can
,on county has never had two more
more economical or more
aithful officials than County Clerk
,tovel and Sheriff Breshears. The
administration of their Of
ces has contributed to a consider
lie extent to the substantial decrease
4 the tax levy for this year. That is
that they promised their constitu-
nts two years ago and they have
arried out their pledges. Their rec
I'd entities them to reelection.
Another man who has made an eX-
client and faithful official is A. O.
christopher, who is seeking re-elec-
on for the office of assessor. Care
al, painstaking, courteous and accom-
he has used his best err
eavor to be a servant of the people

were his followers had made
IL the hills their refuge; and af.
ter them, up rocky defiles anC
dim paths that lost themselves upon
the barren heights, toiled King Saul
eager to slap. The specter of crown
onDavid's brow was ever with the king
and ne would in no wise be turned
aside from his purpose to Stay. This
was he of whom the people had sung,
Saul has slain his thousands and
David his ten thousands" 1t was not
hard to see what talk like that led to;
and the foundations of a dynasty must
sometimes be cemented with blood.
But surely the man David was like
the very wild goats of the hills in his
agility, and wary as the eagle. lie
could turn and double and seek cover,
and suddenly, when YOU were almost
at his heels, be gone clean out OF the
country. Once, when it seemed GER
tain Saul had hemmed him in, mes
senger had come, gaunt and breath
less, bringing news of an incursion of
Phillistines, and it had been impera-
tive to turn back the whole force.
Surely never was king harried so.
They were sad days for David, who
had loved the king. He minded how
the evil spell had grown upon the king,
ard how he rad been use to sit glow
ering, torn by dark doubts and hatred,
and David had played to him upon his
harp and sung his verse until The day
when Saul, in an access Of rladucss,
had flung his spear that sturck CULVER
ing in the wall just where he had been.
And David had done no wrong. All
he had ever done had been to fight for
the king of Israel with the best
strength that was in him.
At MONDAY David and his men lay
out in the cool darkness of a |
cave over against Engedi on a noun
tain side. 1t was far up above the
haunts of man,and only the wild goats
played there, their young skipping
from rock to rock. Suddenly David
and his friends heard with surprise |
feet coming up the trail. 1t was too
late to leave the cave, and at sign |
from their leader they drew back into .
one of the branching passages that led |
from the main chamber, and whose
existence you had never guessed I'M
less you happened to have known of
hat entrance, hidden in the shadows.
From it they watched the king him
self come in signing relief at his es-
,ape from the hot sunlight that blazed
outside. And Saul stretched himself
,ut and went to sleep.
Then David's friends drew close to
lin and whispered their delight.
"Truly," exclaimed one man, "now
rave l lived to see the day of which
he Lord God spoke when he said,
Behold. will deliver thine enemy in !
