a speckless blue over desert and noun

dreams. In retired corner of the
cool dining room at the Mountain
house, they fingered together over a
long-drawn-out dinner. The better-in.
formed guests by asides indicated their
presence to others. They described
them as the hardy couple who had first
met in a stiff Frontier day rifle match
which the girl had won. Her defeated
rival-the man now most regarded and
feared in the mountain country-was
the man with the reticent mouth, mild
eyes, curious birthmark, and with the
two little, perplexed wrinkles visible

eyebrows, the man listening intently

hung over the back of her chair, and
she herself was referred to by the

widest speculation, while that of their
difficulties, and such particulars as Dc
Spain's fruitless efforts to conciliate
Duke Morgan and Dukes open threats
against De Spain's life were widely
known. All these details made the
movement and the fate Of the young
couple the object of keenly curious
comment.
In the late afternoon the two rode
almost the whole length of Main street

1000 VIOLATORS IN THIS CITY
And 995 of Them Real Church
Members, He Declares.
Jumps With Both Feet on the
Legislative "FOOliShneSS."

There are 1000 prohibitory liquor
law violators in Topeka-under the
new bone dry bill-and 995 of them
are church members. That was the
declaration of Frank l. Martin of
Reno county on the floor of the house
of representatives. Martin declared
that he himself was a violator of the
law. Then he stated that Mrs. Martin
would go to Jail rather than observe
the provisions of the new enactment.
Martins startling statement was
made on the floor during a heated de-
bate concerning provisions of
helper" for the bone dry act. Fol-.
lowing the publication of an article IN
the State Journal this week concern
ing the holes in the bone dry act, the
house temperance committee had
sought to patch the bill with added
passage in the house and Martin with
several other lawyer members jumped
on the bill with both feet.
This simple, foolish system which
we have followed in passing every
thing that has the word temperance
attached to it, disgusts everyone in
the state-even the temperance peo-
pie themselves" said Martin mot
only is this provision unconstitutional
on its face, but it is in Line with other
disgusting stuff we have rushed thru
this Legislature. Why, we have more
this line.
Conditions in Topeka.
Let me tell you about this foolish
ness, said Martin as he looked right
at the big women's lobby. Il dare
say there are ], 1000 violators of the So
called bone dry law in Topeka right
now and L dare say further that 995
of them are church members. Why,
out home l am law Violator myself.
L have a bottle of whisky there that
has been in the house four years 1t
is never used except for medicinal
purposes and my wife hasn't used it
all up yet. But l want to tell you she
would go to Jail before she would let
anyone take it away from her.
Brooks of Chautauqua, a candidate
for attorney general next year and a
stickler for everything that smatters
of the uplift, defended the bill against
the opposition of most of the other
house lawyers. The bill passed on bulk
roll call.
