Miss Nelson explained that she
was not fighting the members of tho
nonpartisan league, in her address.
ut is tina socialist leaders of the
league when l am fighting" she
said.
1T is plainly ehe plan OF the So
cialist dominating the league to get
complete, control of the entire edu-
cational system OF the state. They
we'll know that AZ the children are
taught so will the next generation
think and act.
There could be no better agency
for /inoculating and spreading so
cialistic propaganda than the schools.
THE fight in North Dakota is not
a political fight" said Miss Nelson.
"It is fight between civilization and
christianity on one hand and social
ism and atheism under the gui3e of
a "nonpartisan program" on the 9TH
cr."
Commenting on this we point to
Miss Nelson's statement that she
is fighting the socialist leaders OF the
league. In this connection we might
add that we are not opposing the
farmers but are opposing the socialis-
tic dominance of the league as it is in
North Dakota.

CHAPTER |.
Tho Iron GraY-Woman.

A young man stood on the after
deck of small and very dingy house
boat filing a fish spear. Riding at the
end of storm-blackened rope strung
from cleat at the bow to tree on
shore, the boat rose and fell with the
pulse of the river, lazy and languid
under the beat of the hot afternoon
sun.
He was so tall, with such a spread
of shoulder, that he seemed out OF
place upon so small a deck. Wind
season and weather wear had worked
their will upon him. But there are
forces that grave deeper than wind
and weather. Youth can hold wind
and weather at bay. 1t is powerless
against those other forces-those In
ner forces that grave the soul. Under
the chafe OF them his face had become
the face of a man who had looked
upon life and found 1t not to his Tx
ing. His eyes held the keen, quick
hardness that comes to eyes that see
only life's sterner side.
The Pearlhunter, they called him,
the river men, not that he had found
his pearl, possibly because he had not
found it. Failure names men, as well
as success, in the wilderness.
The space between the fore and
after decks Of the houseboat was occu-
pied by a kind of cabin, with cur
tained entrance fore and aft and
single small window on each side. The
man suddenly stopped filing the fish
spear and glanced with quick anxiety
toward this cabin A woman was
coughing. He crossed the narrow deck
at a stride, showed aside the soiled and
rumpled curtain and entered. A dark,
iron-gray woman sat bumped forward
n rickety old rockingham by the
window on the shore side. As II con-
scious of his inability to help, possibly
calloused by long familiarity with sim
liar scenes, he stood looking down
upon her, with no expression OF SYM
pathy other than vince of pity In
his eyes.
She Strengthened after time, and
lay back against the bed quilt spread
In the chair, spent and qulvering, the
trembling shell OF what had once been
a very beautiful woman. The man
crossed the cabin, dipped up tinful
Of water out of bucket by the cook
stove and offered 1t to her. She
waved 1t away.
TITS so warm-and flatl 1t has
been long from the spring.
Without a word he set the cup back
on the bench, picked up the bucket,
passed out to the front deck, crossed
the narrow gangplank, and hurried
away up the slope toward the cliffs
that rose above the trees few rods
back from the river shore.
The spot was known the length OF
the Wabash, for who has not heard of
Fallen Rock, with the broad, thin wa
terfall pitching over the sharp edged
shelf between Its two breasts and lap
ping the stone-strewn pool at Its base?
And the spring breaking out from I'M
der the shale lodges of the cliff near
the west end OF the old cabin and
trickling its waters down little sui
phur-stained gutter into the pool-who
has not heard OF it7 Not to- have
drunk of its waters was considered
misfortune In the Flatwoods, just as
In ancient Greece 1t was considered
g calamity to die without having seen
the statue Of Olympian Zeus.
Fallen Rock Is the highest front OF
naked stone along the Wabash. At
the present day seven towns can be
se"r from Its summit: In the late for
