1t was weeks afterward that she
told him all. Her husband was
wealthy man in Omaha. When she
found that she could no longer en-
dure life with him she had run away,
penniless, save for her railroad
ticket. He had one redeeming quail
ity-he loved his son. On this &C
count she knew he would leave no
stone unturned to find them.
Jim went away, sorroWing. He
knew now that she could never be
his. For she shrank instinctively, he
felt without asking, from the public
ity of divorce. Besides, to seek di-
vOrce would be to put her husband
on her trail She wanted to let the
years roll between them, creating an
ever widening barrier, until she felt
that the past could never stretch out
it's grisly hand upon her.
So the months changed into years.
It was nearly three years since
Leila's coming when something hap
pened which Jim had always known
to be Inevitable.
It was morning and he was on the
high pastures with his cattle when
he saw her running toward him, with
the boy, scrambling up the steep hill
side. She reached him; her face was
white with fear.
"He has found me" she gasped.
ooh, save me! Help me!'
Up the road came the toot Of an
auto horn. Jim saw the car climb
the grade like a heavy locomotive.
And in the ensuing interval of silence
he made his resolution.
The car stopped. A man leaped
out, a man in the prime of life, alb
surdly strong, absurdly healthy, with
the buster and yet the sense of pow
er that sometimes accompany the
successful man.
He leaped to the ground and adj

The Democratic convention. which adjourned Sat urlay afternoon was probably the most representative and deliberate political conference that ever was held in Alaska It required four days for the convention and its committees to do the work that brought the deeeates to the capital. and the committees worked long into the night Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights
 r is true that there were many proxies in the convention. and it would have been much meter f an of the delegates could have been present n person as were most of the delegates from Southeastern Al aska Howver. the instructions that were sent along with the proxies demonstrated that there had been
 good deal Of dellberation before the proxies were mailed and the proceedings ot the convention showed that delegates who were present obeyed their nstFuc' lions Go the letter except where departures were forced by circumstances over which they had no con- troll
 The deliberations and character of the convention were truthfully summed up by leading Juneau Re publican who has lived for 30 years in the Territory who said. ~It was the best convention we have ever had in Juneau. The delegates were of high stand ard there was not jObber' among them. and all of them seemed to be working for the best interest of Alaska as they understood 1t. No one tried to put over anything"
 The convention was nearly a representative body as one could expect to see gathered from all sections Of the Territory where those attending did so at their own expense. It permitted nothing to hurry its deliberations. Every matter that came up was considered freely and fully on It's merits. The convention favors and honors eQuitably dstrib- uted after fun canvass of the situation had been made.
 The thought in the mind of every delegate was to do the best possible thng-tOr Alaska and the party This included desire on the part Of everybody to preserve harmony and leave no sore spots The dele gates will return to their homes satisfied that good work was done
 The result of the convention is that the Demo cratic party of Alaska is now better prepared to be of public service than ever before has been the case The candidates placed in nomination and those sell ected Co represent the party at the National conven- ton and to officer the organization men of the highest character thorough Alaskans and earnest Democrats. The party deserves well at the hands Of Aiassans this year because it represents the best ,hat is Alaskan.

ONE EXTINCT ISSUE

President Wilson's letter Edward \. Hurley. vice chairman of the federal trade commission. urs- ing cooperation between i, and business firms and commercial organizations in order to help trade calls attention to the fac, that familiar issue seems totally absent from the Presidential campaign ,his year.
 That is the issue Of business and industrial resu- ation and restriction No one hears any drastic proposal of that sort from any direction The susges ons are all to the contracy It is generally accept ed that the business of the government far as trade and commerce and industry concerned for some time to come will be to help. not hIndertO re enforce. not restrict
 This is apparently accepted without reserve as
 cardinal point of policy by all leading parties. The Democratic attitude may be taken represented den- ntsiy by President Wilson There is question now

THE CONFERENCE SUCCEEDS
(Chicago Heraldl

Chicago Herald
 Some of the dispatches speak of the conference at Fl Paso between Generals Scott and Funston and Gen. Obregon as having failed In point of fact. the conference has succeeded.
 The conference leaves the situation exactly as 1t should be. Our troops st in Mexico with the indications that they will stay until better reason for their withdrawal be found than the Carranza government has yet presented.
 No arrangement has been entered into by which the United States binds Itself in advance to course of action which will circumscribe prevent the dis charge of the responsibility which our government has so tardy assumed
 No agreement has been made whereby an arbi' trary time limit" is set for the withdrawal of our troops from Mexico in spite of the repeated demands that such limit should be set and the announcement of General Obregon that withdrawal was the one thing which he had come to discuss.
 In brief, nothing has been done to confirm the Carranza government in It's evident theory that can get the United States to do almost anything 1t wants by recourse to thiny yelled threats to the dangers which are likely arise from our failure to make hte concessions demanded
 Had things taken a different course at the con ference-had an agreement actually been reached on any of the points mentioned derogatory to American prestige and American military efiectiveness-t could justly have been said that in spite of the agreement the conference had been an abject and discouragns failure
 We repeat: The conference has succeeded We trust the further negotiations between Washington and oueretaro will produce results equally satsfac' tory and

 Well. Mir Root and Mir Roosevelt are on speaking terms agn. Senator Lodge and Mir. Roosevelt-the "Theodore" and Cabot" of old-can take luncheon without danger to the dishes. Many bridge which was burned four years ago is being reconstructed Many a bed is being prepared for the fellow It mas not known since the crime Of 1912
 What does 1t mean? That Mir Roosevelt is to be invited to support Mir Root or Mir. Lodge for the Republican nomination? That Mir Root and Mir Lodge are being invited to support Mir Roosevelt! Or that the Republican party is to be warned against making the mistake of nominating a candidate who surely will not run!
 It is a puzzle The Hughes boom goes rolling and reverbatng through the land To the minds of some 1t means merely a waste of time-and reveroa' tions To others 1t means that nothing not even the Justice himeslf can stand in the way of manifest destiny It is true that in Minnesota where Senator Cummins carried the primaries. polls give Mr. Roose- welt almost majority. but Justice Hughes is second choice Tn Massachusetts, where two avorite sons and Mir Roosevelt are in the field the Hughes senti' ment is rising like Spring frshet The Boston Tran script which declared Justice Hughes nomination n' evable the other day finds itself reinforced by the Boston Herald.
 In order to combat this remarkable uprising party organs everywhere have begun to show striking inter. est in where Justice Hughes stands on questions or preparedness They evidently expect him to begin writing magazine articles giving out interviews. But one thing is certain-Somebody is being em' barrassed and that somebody isn't Justice Hughes.
