Many of our citizens congratulate
Mr.. j. NJ Thomas for his outspoken
letter yesterday, his opinion being
backed up by testimony obtained from
other cities at some expense to him.
From his letter and that of Alderman
Thomas the day before, it is evident
that Stidham & Hughes were given a
raw deal. It is not to the honor of
our city nor to the interest of its tax
payers, that contractors who come
here to bid on public work be discrim-
mated against. We think the council
had better rescind its action and give
the bidders another. hearing.

WlSEACRES WERE ALL WRONG
Wife Could Afford to Smile in Later
Years at Those Who Opposed
Her Marriage.

October &c, 1854. there were united
in marriage a pretty girl Of twenty,
Abigail Smith, daughter of a minis
ter, to John Adams, a young lawyer
without a practice, himself the son Of
a rather poor farmer. The Iady's
friends were not enthusiastic over the
match, as the girls forefathers were
all of literary or professional caste,
while the young lawyer could boast
Of no connection but with the soil.
The parishiOners were Outspoken in
their disapproval Of the match, it be-
ing based largely on their suspicion Of
lawyers in general.
The fiery old minister-father Of Abb
gail promptly took exception to the
remarks, and the very next Sunday
announced his text as "For John came
neither eating bread nor drinking
wine, and We say he hath a devil" The
minister's faith In his son-in-law
proved well given, for the unknown
and clientless lawyer became the sec
ond President OF the United States.

It was not dreadfally cold, but the
sky seemed on3y vast turmoil of
snow. Darkness came down very ear
ly, but at last Harris began to recOg-
niZe familiar landmarks close by the
trail, and just as night was settling
in he drew into the partial shelter of
the bench on the bank of the coulee.
The horses pulled on their feins per-
Sistently for the stable, but Harris
forced them up to the house. His
loud shout was whipped away by the
wind and strangled in moment. so
he climbed stiffly from the wagon and
pulled with numbed hands at the
double thickness of carpet that did
service for a door. He fancied he
heard a sound, but could be sure of
nothing; he called her name again
and again. but could distinguish no
answer. But at last the fastenings
which help the carpet gave way, and
he half walked, halls fell, into the
house.
The lantern burned dimIy, but if
was not at the lantern he looked. In
the farthest corner, scarcely visible in
the feeble light. stood his wife, and at
her shoulder was the gun, trained
steadily upon him.
Mary Mary, don't you know me?''
he cried.
She dropped her weapon to the floor,
where it went off, harmlessly burying
its charge in the sod WALL.

exclaimed.

rushed 10 her side. But she sat silent

She was sitting where he left her,

slipped her arms about his neck. and
he knew that for fine moment he had
snatched her out of the valley OF the
shadow.
Harris made no more attempts to
market his wheat that winter. His
wffe,s health now became his first con-
sideration. but, even had there been
no such problem, experience had
shown that nothing was to be gained
by making the long and expensive trip
to Emerson. The cost OF subsistence
of man and team on the way devoured
all the proceeds Of the wheat: indeed.
