A MIGHTY DOOM IX A DAKOTA TOWN ,
Xtw Ymlt Ilecnrtltr.
"It bad " said the
WAS enough , judge ,
lasting his gill of outside soJn , "to htivo
lived in Absolom , South Iikotn ; , but if
any inim hail told mo at the time I firs' ,
saw it tlmt its regeneration wiuiii human
possibility I should have considered him
lit for a pool's gr.tvo. Absalom , sir ,
would have miido : t Tonncssoo convict
town blush in a total ocllpsu. I waste
no worJson It. It 1 hadn't trono there for
my health and , spjaldng franlcly , If I
hadn't enjoyed the fun I should h.vvo
quit in twelve hours nftor setting foot in
It. But lot mo t-jH you a plain story :
"Tho one tolerable character in the
town at the time I arrived there and
nobody counted him 11 citizen , as you
might say , for it was obvious ho had
only n liUlo while to stay anyhow was
the editor of the opposition newspaper ,
called so because the second established.
"lie was n young tenderfoot from the
enst , dying easily , but fait , of consump
tion , and ran the uaper merely to lighten
his last moments and keep his hand in.
Ho had baon an art critic and foreign
editor on ti Ujston newspaper , and said
it was a now sensation to write for the
average Absolom reader said that Ills
only regret was for the time ho had
wasted on a cultivated mugwump audi
ence when ho could have boon working
osijcowboys and minors. His paper , the
Tonic , had a great pull over its rival , the
Empyrean , in itscable dispatches , which
poor'yoiiiig Kay used to write himself.
Good paper , the Absolom Tonic , but I
thought it interviewed Li Hung Chang
too often on the Chinese question.
"Kay was the best man in town. The
worst man in town was plentiful. There
were many claimants for the distinction.
They wore thinned out by the lead in
jection process from time to time , but
fresh candidates continually appeared
and wasted money and ammunition in
the futile endeavor to keep themselves
before the public. Major Anderson
Teaklo had probably the longest and
most villainous record among all the
claimants , and , what was certainly in his
favor , ho had arrived at the point when
ho could travel on his reputation with
out unnecessary display. As ho was
naturally a reserved and fastidious man ,
this suited hi' , own disposition , and so
few incidents now marked his career
that ho frequently spoke of the serenity
in which his later years was being leu.
Ho enjoyed In. prominence in the com
munity.
"It was a thorough surprise to both of
us when "no and I became involved in a
norsonal dilTerence. It was so totally
unexpected. This affair arose out of a
little transaction in mining stoclc. and
though each of us acted as the other
would have done had our positions been
reversed our interests were diametri
cally opposite ami trouble was bound to
follow. It was one of those occasions
when circumstances were entirely to
blame. .
"I must say I regretted the occur
rence. Of course 1 was obliged to take
some action , but the outlook was not
satisfactory to me. Settling my score
with the major was all w4oll onouirh ,
but the matter could not bo expected to
end there on account of the standing of
the parties and my business interests ,
which were important , might suffer. I
discussed the matter with Ray , who ,
from his conservative eastern training ,
naturally inclined to the same view , lie
admitted the unfortunate elements in
.tlio situation , but he ollored n sugges
tion.
" 'Is thnro any reason for immediate
steps ? ' ho asked.
" 'No , ' said I , 'iho matter might hang
on for a , little while unless the major
takes the initiative. '
' " \Voll , then , " said ho , 'supuoso you
wait a few days and I will overhaul the
major's record and work up public sen
timent against him. Then you can"
make it more or loss of a public matter. '
" "J'nat is very obliging of you , Hay , '
I said , 'but you don't reckon on one
thing. '
" 'And what is that' ; "
" Your position in this town , ' said I ,
'is unique. Your health preclude ? the
possibility of any one's taking personal
umbrage at the utterances of the Tonic ,
and your popularity further increases
the freedom which you enjoy. Now ,
the result-Is that while your estimated
of well known individuals tire eagerly
perused there is a certain Irresponsi
bility attu'ching to them , I have known
you to tear out lifty men right in this
town without inlluencing public estima
tion of them one particle. '
' "I am afraid that IB true , ' said ho.
" 'A crusade against Major Toaklo
would attract considerable entertain
ment. But , if you will pardon mo for
saying so , it would not be accepted
seriously , coining from you. '
" 'There's no use going to the Empy
rean , ' said Ray. 'That paper has no
white corpuscles in its blood. See horol'
ho suddenly exclaimed , 'what's the
matter with booming you instead ? '
" 'Tlio very tliingl'I cried. And little
did I think that that proposition and itu
acceptance were fraught with the des
tiny of Absolom. I confess I had only
Major Toaklo in mind.
"Hay went to work at once. The
local editor prepared a three-column
interview witn me , including a review of
the service I had rendered Absolom ,
and a description of my now residence
on State street , which was photo
graphed from three dilToront points.
While this was in hand Hay prepared
the way by complimentary allusions in
the personal column. For instance :
* * There U a Konorul expectation at
Washington that when the buttlo fbt
Ktutohood miens the arguments of Juduo An-
pk-dlcU will carry Irresistible weight with
our national legislators.
* * * Besides possessing tbo finest
pair of Mlvor-mounted pistols lu Absolom ,
Jud e ApplcdlcK Is a close-and Rnthuttaslto
student of Indian antiquities.
"And HO on. Tlio article created
something of a sensation on its appear
ance , and I was pleased to notn as an
index of the pulse of the town that Inside
of twelve hours I was invited to become
adiruetor in three new mining compa
nies , with ground lloor privileges.
"When I reported this to Hay ho was
considerably tickled.
" 'Look at that for a beginning , ' said
ho. 'Say , are you prepared to give $60
to a deserving charity ? '
"I told him I was.
" 'All right , ' said ho. 'We'll present
a brand-new gilt sign , four feet high , to
the railroad station and wake the com
pany up. '
"Tho next morning ho had a long ar
ticle about this public-spirited gift , and
the mayor wrote 1110 u letter of tliunlcB.
I took it to Hny'A'nd said I judged I
could safely go a&c.i'il now.
" 'Why , man alive , ' ho replica. 'I've
only just begun ttytlp the cart. '
' "Don't keep jnb waiting too long , '
said 1 , 'for I'm spoiling to got at that
rascal. ' > ' "
"Next day soinqtJiing happened. The
Tonic , I need not say , kept right up to
the mark , but to'iny consternation the
Empyrean prlnttfd'an ' article with the
following hondllmU :
TCAKLE'S SPLENDID OFFER.

AltSOLOMVITIt Tiir.M.
"The article may bo imagined. When
Ray saw it ho simply remarked : 'What
sickening headlines that blacksmith can
write when ho tries. '
" 'Young man'said I , 'you are re
sponsible for this. You refused to lot
mo go ahead when I wanted to , and now
Teaklo has coppered mo. Would you
object to tolling mo what you propose to
do about it' ? '
' 'Do about , ' says ho. 'Do about
it ? Judge , is it conceivable that you
don't see the possibilities in this thing ? '
' "Possibilities ba darned , ' said I , for
I was rattled.
" 'Come along , if you like if you
don't , stay hero. I'm going to lind
Tenklo. '
"lie jumped up , with his nalo cheeks
breaking out red like a fever. 'Judge , '
says he , you're a fool and you're
a quitter. Why , man , this is the oppor
tunity of your life. 1 tell you I failed to
sixo it up myself till now. Sit down in
that chair and lie yourself in , will you ?
nnd for pity's sake don't interfere with
mo when the Empyrean throws down
the gauntlet. lloaVojis , sir , I am a
Thoban eagle compared to that idiot ,
and never till now have I had a chance
to prove it. And such a chancel.Slum
bering Confucius , it's not only unique ,
but the soil , sir , is virgin ! Judge , ' said
ho , solemnly , 'If you go back on mo
now , I swear you'must settle with mo
before you do with Toaklo , and by ,
I can slioot as straight as any man. '
"There , now , what do you think of
that for a consumptive ?
"I took him 'round the corner nnd
gave him some whisky to stop a fit of
coughing he'd got into , nnd then I sol
emnly bound myself over to him body
and soul .o do'what ho domed please
with.
"After that the ceremonies began in
earnest. Both papers carefully stripped
and went in , and there was no sparring
for wind. It was beautiful fighting. Of
course , against Ray's ro&ources thn
Empyrean wouldn't have stood the ghost
of a show , except that ToaUlo took
charge of the light himself , and though
ho wasn't a cultured man lie was an in
fernally clever one. The Empyrean , as
wo happened to know , was nrcp'irod for
a campaign of abuse , but , as Kay predicted -
dicted , they didn't dnre begin it. and wo
never doviutod from our course an inch.
Inside of a week , sir , there wasn'ta man
in town that didn't take oil' his hat to
me. and Teaklo was very nearly as
highly esteemed. It was expensive ; in
three weeks [ spent a matter of $1,500
or $12.000 to maintain my newly acquired
reputation. I needn't tell you that it
went in works of philanthropy , and the
whole of it did too , for among other
things Ray had lifted mo into the posi
tion of a moduruto drinker and a high
license advocate. Tbte was to round out
the list of cardinal.'virtuos ' I possessed ,
and it was needful , for I don't believe
Moses was a much more sublime and
dignified character than 1 had become ,
and my devotion to the interests of Ab-
solomand the northwest was something
heroic.
'I didn't mind the expense. The
town began to boom , nnd strangers
wcro Hocking to sou the two remarkable
men who wore making a terrestrial para
dise out of a place Hue Abbolom. Nat
urally I made money. The general im
provement , material and social , was in
credible. I started a bourse. Toaglo
joined tlio church : I dined at 7 o'c'.ock ,
Teaglo sent to Minneapolis for a dress
coat ; I olTuctcd a reorganization of the
lire department , TeaUl > brought the
movement for anew school house to a
successful issue. A distinct era of culti
vation sot in for Absolom ; it came rath
er arduous on some of the boys , nut they
stuck to it like little men , and you may
believe mo or not , ns you like , but it's a
fact that wo had an Ibsen society. It
suseqttontly turned intoa Society for the
Encouragement of California Wines ,
but its inception was perfectly sincere.
"All this time Hay remained practic
ally unknown to the majority of our in
habitants. I grow to be fond of him , us
if ho had been my brother ; ho was so
damn plucky. liis sympathy for Abso
lom seemed to bo sort of inherent , for
he never wont about the town much ;
used to lie abed of a morning , reading
and fcmoking , and when ho got to his of-
llco would hang about , there until , ' 5 or1
g. m. , working and cursing the Boston
papers for not understanding the coun
try. I had stopped talking to him about
Toaklo ; I just lot him forgo ahead and
come along in his wash , with the tow
line caught around the thwart , fast ; till
one day ho said :
" 'Well , judge , nnd now how do you
think wo stand ? '
"I told him the question was what ho
thought.
" 'I think we're out of sight , ' said he.
'And now's the time to clinch things. '
"Says I : 'As how ? '
" 'Got your fences out for the territor
ial legislature , ' said ho.
" 'The rails are cut , ' said I.
"And so they wore , for 1 naturally
looked some way ahead.
" 'Then lot's got to work , ' says ho.
"At it wo wont , that very day , and
found that Teaklo had taken his MX
down , too. But w0 were in the load , as
usual. I toll youj bir , what had gone
before wasn't a circumstance to what
followed when ; wa were publicly an
nounced as candidates. It was a wiro-
wrappou republican district , and the
contest was for tljbiointnationof , ( course.
But the town would have nominated us
both twice over if it could. If Moses
and the prophet 1 Dad located in Abso-
loin they would have considered it an
honor to bo introduced to Toaklo and
myself. As It * Vyas , our fame became
national. Ruy gave mo an acquaint
ance with prominent men all over

ton letter thus , for instance : "Tho ac

rolinot that the nvin who made Wabh-
inirlon what it is'Boss' Shepard , always
acknowledges his indebtedness to Judge
Applodlck for many suggestions which
were embraced in his farsighted plans. '
Or ho would say in his London dis
patches : 'Mr. Gladstone bus written an
autograph letter thanking Judge Apple-
die of Absolom , Dak , , for a valuable
monograph on ghnHt dances , '
"He made mo draw up and obtain Big-

reference to nihilism , which was actu
ally sent , and the receipt of which was
acknowledged from St. Petersburg ,
and he announced that the sultan had
wanted to decorate mo with the order
of the Mojidioh , and that I had de
clined , and the statement was copied
into the eastern newspapers and wont
the rounds. I see it still , occasionally.
"Still , Teaklo made . \ good light , and
the "Xcitomont wns Intense , Toaklo

otlxer with the utmost courtesy , and
alluded to each other as 'my honored
and distinguished friend. ' . But the
game was still on , and a deep game it
was.
was."Well
"Well , sir , it wanted a week of nomi
nation. I reckoned on eighteen major
ity , sure , first ballot , and maybe twenty-
live. 1 took the calculation round in my
pocket to Hay. lie was In the olllco.
Ho was lying on the table , white as
pasteboard. Ho had just had a hemor
rhage.
' Wo took him homo. lie died the
next morning holding my hand.
'Judge , ' ho said , 'you're elected nnd the
town is made. ' Then ho gave a laugh
and said in a quour Utnd of slow way ,
'And eastern uulturo has done it , sure
enough. Fide'iter dldiclsso' . That
was tlio last thing ho said.
"I wont to the shop and wrote a brief
notice of his death , with a tribute to
his character. I stated that I hail
boughcouttho Tonic and would con
tinue it In its well known line of devo
tion to the interests of Absolom , and
mentioned that I would take it as a jer-
sonal honor if the citizens would attend
Hay's funeral in a body.
"Do you know what my idea was ?
Sir , the old Adam no , sir , the old Cain
in my nature w.is up in blind madness.
I had lost Ray , who was the substance
of everything tlmt I had gathered about
me. and as t recognized the fact I do-
lormiiied to go back to whore I started
from. It was simple. I would just got
the drop on Toaklo and end it all. You
know the old heathens used to kill a
man's enemies at his grave. Well , I
didn't feel just then that our civiliza
tion had been worth working so hard
for.
"Thoro was an Immense concourse at
the services over Raj' . Wo joined in a
procession and inarched out to the ceme
tery. As we fell in 1 saw Teaklo and a
number of his leading supporters. I
looked tit him. Ho lifted his hat ho
had a black band on it and bowed
gravely.
"After the eoflln had lowered into the
ground I raised my hand for silence.
Then I made them an address. I told
them about Ray about the future there
had been for him at home , about his tal
ent and his courage and his resources ,
and how his ambitions had been cut
short by death but not , I said , his use
fulness. 'For , ' said I , 'gentlemen , there
lies the man who made Absolom what it
is. Beside him Major Teaklo and I have
boon hewers of wood and drawers of
water. On the edifice that ho has reared
wo have laid no so much as a brick , our
hands have been hold oil its foundations ,
and he , not we , dropped tne plumb line
over its courses. ' Sir , I told them that
truth , and I made the truth as bitter to
Major Toakle as I could. What I could
toll , without descending into trivial details -
tails unbulitting the occasion , that I did.
I spake 1'or half an hour , and held the
major's eye with mine until I closed.
" 'Now , ' thinks I , 'lot him seek mo
out when he chuo cs. ' " '
"Sir , it befell otherwise.
"Toaklo stepped forward , amid a
pilonco so profound that it overpassed
the silence of death itself present among
us , and stood opposite mo with bared
head.
" 'Gentlemen , ' ho said , 'citizens of
Absolom , every word that Judge Applo-
dick has spoken is simple fact , nnd I
honor him for speaking it. I honor
him for knowing what his loss is , for I
have had a good reason myself to know
what it incanp , and I honor him for
bcintr stirred to the profoundcst depths
of his being. Beside this grave and in
the face of what Absolom is today there
can bo no rivalry between Judge Applo-
dick and myself. I lender him my
hand , and claim a share in his sorrows.
And I withdraw from the political con
test in which wo are engaged and ask
my supporters to accept him as the only
candidate. '
"That Icaklo's .
was Major speech.
That is why I am hero a representative
of my state in Washington today and
why Toaklo will bo governor before
long. I l.iy it all to Hay. "
