Elmos Aluahces I no mention
of Alliance men elected 'n Bojd count.
County officer who belong to the Alli
ance are treasurer, surveyor, coroner
and two commissioners. This to on the
lection returns as given by Butte city.
Spencer, the other aspirant for county
seat, would add sheriff, attorney, super
intindent and another commissioner. I
am disappointed at Edgerton's defeat;
and especially surprised that so many
farmers would not support him. All I
have to say is that they who will sell
themselves deserve to be slaves. And
some sold themselves dirt cheap. I
have profound contempt for them, for
tuey knew better, or they were crimin
ally ignorant. Ignorance has to pay
penalty as well as neglect. But for
you, Mr. Burrows, and for those who
nobly fought for principle I have high
regard; and I will standby the cause
to the end. Let us go forward educat
ing and sgitating until oppression is
overthrown and manhood counts for
more than money and all mankind are
brothers. Let us press the claim for
justice, remembering that oppression
has gained no moral right by its long
continuance, and that the present legal
rights of capital which are not founded
upon moral right can be crushed be
neath the iron heel of an outraged peo
ple. Let the stragglers and cowards
go; let us close up our ranks and go
forward. We have not done all we
hoped this fall; but we have done much.
We have charged the enemy and we
have won a good part of his lines; and
we have won vantage ground from
wkiuh to advance again. The old party
may well congratulate itself that it did
not lose everything; but the victory is
ours. Rev. N. H. B.
What the Peoprc's Party Has Done.
It has elected 43 congressmen and
United States senators.
It has perfected organizations in over
15 states, and is carrying on spirited
contests in Ohio, Iowa, Colorado, Ne
braska, South Dakota, Kansas, Massa
chusetts, Maine and other states.
It has polled 30.000 votes in Okie.
It has polled 27,000 votes in Kentucky
after a short campaign of six weeks,
and holds the balance of power in the
legislature.
It has elected 93 members of the Kan
sas legislature, and polled a 10 per cent
larger vote this year than last.
It has secured the balance of power
in the Georgia legislature, and U no
mean factor at half a dozen other state
capitals.
It came withing 4.000 votes of beating
a republican and democratic fusion in
Nebraska.
It has called into behg eight hundred
reform newspapers owned by men who
have no fear of the old parties.
It has forced the old parties to fuse
in several states.
It has brought the farmer, the wage
worker, and the average citizen upon a
common platform.
It has gained a pofiitloa where it cas,
in good time, call a halt ttpon Wall
street for cornering the metal basis of
the national currency, and upon trusts
for swindling the public, and upon cap
italists for forcing inhuman and unjust
conditions on labor, and upon tax
dodgers, for throwing the money bur
dens of state oil or the poorer classes.
It has proclaimed that the time has
come to legislate upon something be
sides the tariff, and that the language
of sectional dispute has become obso-latB.T-New
Mttion.
THE ALLIANCE.
The Sentinel: A thing that tickles
an old party editor or correspondent
clear down to his toes is to write an
article about the politics of a state
that has at least 50,000 People's Party
votes and say nothing about our party.
The little trick fills him all up with
"great silent inward guffaws."
The Democrat: During Cleveland's
administration there were nearly
15,000.000 of gold borrowed to pay in
terest on United States bonds, and
Harrison threatens to veto any bill
looking toward specie payments on
these bonds. Yet the contract calls
for coin payment, which means silver
or gold.
People's Tribune: Why do the
Democrats in the south and Republi
cans in the north and west grudge the
People's Party and the Alliance their
little political diversion? They agree
it will not last long only a summer
shower. Let us be happy while we
may. let us follow our sweet delusion
and hope for better times, let us live
in the belief that God is good, and
does not countenance wrong. It does
not harm them. 1 am glad we are to
have their sympathy when we realize
that all our props are vain, and that
the great Demo-Republican party is to
trample the producers under their feet
forever.
Southern Alliance Farmer: With
all fair-minded men, the political
significance of the word plutocracy
means simply to emphasize the fact that
there does, to-day, exist in country,
not only an infiu" a con
trolling: class o h men, who seek to
manage par rly the financial sys
tem of the vernmcnt in their own
interest. Its political use is also a
warning against a further combine
between this class and the party ma
chines of the country. The Alliance
understands full well that, in form,
the supreme power in this country is not
lodged in the hands of the wealthy class
es alone; that, in theory, this is -a gov
ernment of, by and for the people"
but that, practically, it falls far short
of being such a government This is
mainly true because the people have
abdicated their sovereign right to gov
ern. The Wheel: Had the people of the
United States issued $2,000,000,000 of
paper money and built railroads with
it in the place of the f 2, 000, 000,000 of
gold that has been dug out of the
mines, they would havo had at least
100,000 miles of equipped railroads
and the t2, 000. 000, 000 in circulation
instead of a few holes in the ground,
1,000,000 acres of the best land in
America ruined and a paltry 1500, 000.
000 of gold left in this country and no
government railroads. Why not cor
rect this now? Let congress appro
priate t3, 600. 000, 000 for building
railroads and telegraphs and equipping
them and other needed public works,
buying such as are needed that are
already built This will afford $50
per capita circulation and give the
people transportation at cost. The
country would have value received for
their money, and the people would
have money to build factories and give
work to the unemployed.

A Caller Nationalistic Beef.
It strikes one as strange that we
have seen little or no nationalist agi
tation of the meat question. The ques
tion of cheap coal would sink into in
significance by the side of the one of
cheap meat The best beef sells at
retail in the West for 12 cents or less
per pound, but here it la raised in
price by the great meat combine to 28
and 30 cents per pound. The legiti
mate freight charges and cost of extra
handling before it reaches the con
sumer in the East can be but a hmall
part of this extraordinary advance in
profits and immense profits go into
the pockets of the millionaire ' 'meat
kings." Under similar conditions
as the nationalists propose for coal
the best steaks could be sold
by the Eastern retailers from 16 to 18
cents per pound, and the retailers
would bo benefited as much as the con
sumers from the fact that they would
sell double the quantity, as poor peo
ple could then a fiord to eat meat

Politics and HellKlon.
"When a man finds himself going
down and down and down, without
power to mend things, freezing, hun
gering and dying by inches, he's sure
to get desperate. In the last week
I've been an atheist; anarchist and
deviL I've sat here and cried out
there is no God except for the rich.
I've said that if I could get down
stairs I'd burn and kill. I've looked
at my wife and children with murder
in my heart!"
The above words were recently
spoken to a reporter of the New York
World by a sick tenant occupying a
dingy room on the third floor of a mis
erable tenement house in New York
city.
In strange contrast is the following
item of news taken from another pa-,
per: "At a dinner recently given in
New York to thitry-three persons tho
bill wa3 i,500, or 200 a plate."
A MOVING MOUNTAIN.
A traveling mountain is found in
the cascades of the Columbia. It is a
triple-peaked mass of - dark-brown
basalt six or eight miles in length
where it fronts the river and rises to
height of almost two thousand feet
above the water. That it is in motion
is the last thought which would be
likely to suggest itself to the mind of
any one passing it, yet it is a well
established fact that this entire moun
tain is moving slowly but steadily
down to the river, as if it had a delib
erate purpose some time in the future
to dam the Columbia and form a great
lako from the cascades to the Dalles.
The Indian traditions indicate im
mense movements of tho mountains in
that region long before white men
came to Oregon, and the early settlers,
immigrants many of them from New
England gave the above-described
mountainous ridge tho name of
"traveling" or "eliding" mountain.
In its forward and downward move
ment the forests along the base of the
ridge have become submerged in the
river. Large tree stumps can be seen
standing deep in the water on this
shore. The railway engineers and the
brakemen find that the lino of the
railway which skirts the foot of the
mountain is being continually forced
out of place. At certain points the per
manent way and rails have been push
ed eight or ten feet out of line in a
few years. Geologists attribute this
strange phenomenon to the fact that
the basalt, which constitutes the bulk
of the mountain, rests on a substratum
of conglomerate or of soft sand-stone,
which the deep, swilt current of the
mighty river is constantly wearing
away, or that this softer subrock is of
itself yielding at great depths to the
enormous weight of the harder minora-1

BEYOND THE VEIL
If I were In your place, I would
not go," advised a friend to whom I
bad announced my intention of visit
ing Mine, de Strang, a fortune-teller
whose strangely worded advertise
ment had roused my curiosity.
And why not?" I asked.
Because," he returned, thought
fully, -from what I have heard about
her, I am sure that her exhibitions
and so-calli d revelations are simply
the results of skillful legcrdcriuain
designed to appeal to the superstition
in our natures. We all are sufficiently
superstitious, why should we seek to
be more so?"
I laughed. "Johnson," I said, "do
I look like a superstitious man?"
I set out that bright afternoon alone.
The address I had written down led
me to a tall red-fronted brick build
ing, in a squalid street in the northern
part of the city. The locality was any
thing but inviting. I went up the steps
to the stoop, and pulled at the bell I
listened for a ring, but no sound came
from within. The door , opened sud
denly. A little, brown-laced man.
with repulsive features and a head
shaped like a kcy-stono, stood bowing
In the dark hall. He motioned me
rather impatiently to enter, saying, in
broken English: ,
"You must not stand there, the door
will close."
I stepped inside and the door in
stantly shut without a particle of sound,
making the hall so dark that I could
not see an inch before my eyes. It
was as silent as a grave, not a sound
came in from the street which was
roaring with trafile and vehicles.
"Well?" said tho man, ha!f-inter-rogatlvely,
and from his voice I knew
he was near me. I replied that 1 bad
come to consult Mme. de Strang.
"You can not see ber now," he re
plied in a very low tone; "she is busy."
"I will go then and come back
again," I said, conscious of a certain
feeling of relief, and a desire to reach
the light To my surprise he did not
reply. I waited a moment and, stop
ping backward, put out my hand to the
door. A cold thrill of horror quivered
over me. There waa no knob, latch,
or key-hole, and I felt the soft padding
into which the door closed to keep out
sound. I heard him laugh softly.
The door can not be unlocked
here," he said, and I could see his
eyes in the darkness, like coals of
fire; 'madame opens and closes it by
electricity in her apartments. You
will have to wait it is the rule."
-I will return for you in a moment "
said the unseen attendant indifferently,
and he went from me, trailing his
hand in a ghostly way along the wall.
Then I essayed to fight down my fears.
I tried to convinco myself that this was
designed to frighten and unlit me for
the forthcoming interview. I laughed,
but it only intensified my terror. Have
you ever been where dead silenco and
awful darkness make occasional sound
terrifying? I quaked to the core of
my soul at the echoing of my ghastly
laugh. It seemed to go up, to come
down, to traverse the long hall and
bound from side to side, growing
weaker and weaker. It seemed to be
my own soul trying to desert me in tho
horrible darkness, trying to leave my
material self In its hunger for light
and freedom.
I sprang toward the attendant when
I heard him returning. I wanted to
take him in my terrified embrace, and
plead with him to open the door, but
my pride prevented it. He led me
down the black hall and into a still
di.rker apartment the carpet of which
felt as dark and uncertain under my
feet as a pillow of down, and gently
pustied me into a chair with his hands
on my shoulders. Then, with his lips
to my ear. h whispered:'
"Sit perfectly still; do not stir un
der any circumstances till madame
speaks to you, and keep your eye in
front of you. for it is there you will
see her."
I heard him leaving. Again that
weird trailing of his hand along the
wall till the sound dies out. Then out
of the curtain of darkness before ray
eyes sprang what appeared to be a
diuzling star. It was no larger than
a penny, but Its brilliancy pained my
eyes like looking at the sun. I looked
down and saw that it had cast a round,
bright spot about six inches in diam
eter on the black carpet about a yard
from my feet I could not take my
eyes from it It fascinated ino for sev
eral minutes; then every particle of
blood in my veins ceased to flow, for I
discovered that it was slowly moving
toward me. I tried to rise, to scream,
but was powerless. It reached my
feet and slowly climbed my legs and
then my body. When it was travers
ing my breast I felt as if its weight
would crush mo to dealh. Presently
it encircled ray face. I was blinded
for an instant, then sprang to my feet
As I did so it fell and ran in a waver
ing way across tho lioor and vanished.
"He still!'' a musical voice caution
ed. I looked in front of mo. The
darkness was beginning to grow light
er, as a dark night niellw at the ap
proach of dawn. At first it was gray,
then it took on a reddish tinge veiled
with a mist of gold. The effect was
strangely soothing. I almost, forgot
my terror in tho pleasurable sensat ion
of wonder that came over me. The
scene was constantly ohangine. Out
of the pink-and-golden giory came the
most beautiful creature I had ever
seen. Sho was reclining on a couch
as if asleep. I was in total darkness;
there was no light suve a rose-halo
that surrounded her. She opened the
most wondrous eyes I had ever seen,
and smiled.
"You desired to consult mo?'' she
half-questioned.
I could not speak.
"Never mind," sho said; "you aro
excited. They all areit is only natural."
She raised her shapely, bare ana
and made a graceful gesture, and. at
that moment I hoard street muele as
delicate as that of an .tollan harp. So
soft and low wan it that if the place
bad not been as still as a tomb. It would
nut have reached my ears.
"1 can show you two thing only
about physical being with the spirit
ual I have nothing to da" she contin
ued, in tones that bended ym pathetical
ly with the music. ' If you desire I can
show you some one only one o
your ancestor as they appeared a cent
tury or more ago. I can also cause
you to see yourself in the future. I
can not say under a hat conditions, for
I know nothing till the picture ap
pears. Some see themselves in old
age alive and happy; other are pres
ent at their own funerals. In the lat
ter contingency, you would see your
self surrounded by those who will be
with you at death. You must be your
own judge as to whether you see these
things. I examined your face before
I admitted you; I judge that yon are
mentally and physically able to wit
ness all I may show you; indeed, you
are much calmer now than a few mo
ments since."
I tried to smile, but my face felt
hard and stiff. "Yes. " I said, and my
voice sounded so harsh and gu tural in
the musical atmosphere that I did not
finu-h what I had started to say.
I understand." she said; "well,
look to your right"
I turned in the direction ber eyos
had taken, and she went on:
"There appears to be a curtain
there, but it is only darkness; in a
moment it will be gone."
Again I witnessed that wonderful
melting of darkness into light and
when the pink-and-golden haze had
vanished I saw an old-fashioned room,
having a wide fire-place, polished
floor, and antiquated furniture. I
could even see tho sunlight as it enter
ed a small-paned window and lay diag
onally on the floor, and through an
open door I caught a glimpse of a
fiower-gurden, a grassy lawn dotted
with fruit trees and grape-arbors. Up
a long walk an old man wa approach
ing. He wore a three cornered bat
knickerbockers, low shoes with sil
ver buckles, and a blue coat decorated
with lace. He entered the door as
silently an thought moves, and
sat down at the window in
the sunlight wiping hi heated brow
with a handkerchief. He looked like
a picture of my great-grandfather,
which 1 remembered having seen when
I was a child.
"You may not be able to note it"
went on the beautiful woman," but
there is a marked resemblance be
tween yourself and this man. Note the
shape of his brow, hit hands, the color
of his eyes, his posture."
I gazed so steadily that a mist
seemed to fall before my sight The
sunlight left the window; a cloud
seemed to have swept over the garden,
that I could see through the door; the
scene grew gtay and then was swal
lowed up by the darkness that
streamed into it The rose-light drew
my eyes for relief to the woman on the
couch.
"That is all I can show you of the
past," she said sweetly; "but if you
will look back again you will see
something of your future Remember,
however, that you must be courage
ous. As the most important events in
life are marriage and death, you will
be apt to see something of one or tho
other as regards your own future."
"You had better look," said the
woman; "it is not so very bad, you
will see. I would not have you go
away in your present mental condi
tion. After all, to die is but tho end
of earthly life. Look!"
I folt some one turn me forcibly
around. A wide landscape was be
fore my eyes,, and oh, how beautiful!
Hills and mountains rose in the dis
tance; sunshine fell over it all. Near
by stood a great church of gray stone.
I could see tho massive bell swing to
and fro through the lattice of the
steeple. A vast crowd was going
into tho wide door. Carriages and
horses dotted the road that led away
toward tho rivor in the distance. A
hearse, black as ebony, the horses of
which were prancing and curveting
impatiently. Six gray-headed men
took out the casket and began to bear
it toward the church, and the organ
within commenced to play dolefully.
Tho old men had the faces of young
men I knew faces altered by age.
As they began to ascend the church
steps 1 saw the white face of the
corpse through the uncovered, flower
strewn glass.
It was my own, but wrinkled with
old age and crowned with hair as
white as snow. A snowy heap of
beard lay upon my breast
'Do not be grieved. " said the fortune-teller;
"yours is the funeral of a
very old man. See the date on the
new tombstone under the trees in the
church-yard. "
1 looked and saw a white slab near
an open grave, and on It was engravod
my name and "Died April the First
1915."
The organ strains died as if the in
strument were borne away. The
wholo became n glorious sunset view.
I looKod at the roso-light; it was fad
ing. I could see only a shadowy out
line of the boautiful woman. Present
ly I was alone in total darkness. Then
I felt gome one guiding me toward the
hall. The door opened, and I walked
slowly out into the blinding sunlight
and tho deafening roar of the streets.

parishioner a rich but hard, grasping,
penurious and quarrelsomo man. In
course of time he died, and, at l.i.i

ring an earnest request that as the
minister had already given her hus

would quietly pass him over in his
prayer. Sho added that hor husband
