    THE DALLES "WEEKLY CHJlONlCLESATURDAY. APRIL 11. 1896.
ICopyrlght, 189, by J. B.

"It is. in some senses, I suppose, and
in others I think it is as strong: as ever.
-'. My father fought for the south; and if
you could know how strongly my sym
pathies are enlisted upon the side of
some of the things which you think are
tleod issues, there would be only one
yord in your vocabulary that would fit
me an ugly little word of five letters."
"I hope I am broad enough not to ap
ply it. Miss Latimer. I think I can put
" '' jnyself in your place sufficiently to un
derstand that there may be many and
honest differences of opinion."
; - "It's right kind of you to say that
especially as your side has the better of
the argument; though I'm not so sure
' about that, either. It's one thing to
starve people into submission and quite
another to subjugate them."
"I believe I can appreciate that, too."
Neither of them spoke again for a
few moments, and then Hester called
his attention to a jutting crag project
' ing far out from the cliff-line at their
feet. "Do you see that point over yonder
to the right?" she asked.
"Yes; and I was going to ask you if
it has a name."
"It has; it is called 'Tom's Jump.
; It's not a very poetic name, and it could
bardly be called a 'Lover's Leap, al
though the story is dreadful enough."
"Tell me about it."
"It's short and quite prosaic. There
used to be a moonshiner's still some
where in this neighborhood, and one of
the men was young Tom Cragin, the son
of the mountaineer who owned the still.
One day the revenue men were trying to
arrest the party, and they chased young
Cragin out into this road. He ran
down that way, and two more officers
came out into the road ahead of him.
When he saw he was surrounded, be
climbed out to the point of that rock
and flung himself down."
Eingbrand looked surprised. "I didn't
know the penalties were severe enough
to warrant a man in doing that," he
said.
'Tin not sure that they are," replied
the girl, "though a long term in the
penitentiary is hard enough after the
free life of the mountain. But in Crn
gin's case I think there were other
things; there was a long story of blood
shed and violence leading up to the
tragedy, and perhaps he bad reason to
fear something worse than a prison.
You don't know anything about the sav
age history of these mountains, Mr.
Eingbrand," she added, turning her
norse's head homeward. "Nearly
every family in the neighborhood is or
las been mixed up in some dreadful
trouble; even our own has not escaped."
She did not offer any further explana
tions as they rode back to "The
Laurels," and Eingbrand felt, instinct
ively that it was a matter about which
he could not ask questions. What she
had said, however, made him thought
ful, and he resolved to ask Ludlow if he
knew the story.
When they reached the house Hester
asked Eingbrand to stay to tea, and
after the meal they sat together on the
veranda while the colonel and his son
rode to Tregarthen. Since they were
well beyond the period of acquaintance'
ship in which young lovers take each
other seriously and talk upon abstruse
subjects, the conversaton drifted aim
lessly and easily from one topic to an
other until it finally came back to the
rector and his approaching marriage.
Hester spoke of it again in terms of dis
approval. . "It seems to me like a case of
infatuation on his part," she said.
"though I suppose I'm prejudiced. I
Saster asked Hing-brand to stay to tea.
can't see how they are ever going to be
able to make peace between the sec
tions." ;
"Is Miss Brndfern so very pronounced
in her views?" asked Ringbrand. .
' I think she is ; and I fear she is much,
the stronger of the two."
"Is that always a misfortune?"
- "Possibly not; but it seems so to me.
It implies a surrender on the part of the
husband, and that's a pitiable thing to
contemplate." .
"Do you think so? I should say that
such a surrender might be very noble
under some circumstances."
"I can't imagine the circumstances.
"What are they?"
Ilis frank question drew him rather
deeper into the subject than he had
meant to: go, but he laid hold of his
courage and spoke the thought that
was in him. "I mean when a man has
been fortunate enough to find the one
woman in the world with whom he can
share all things." He said it quietly,
trying to keep the vibrant note of pas
sion out of his voice.
. She did not. reply at once, and when
she did there was no sign that she had
taken his answer' in any sense other
than as an abstract statement of fact,
"Even then I think you are wrong," she
said. "It doesn't seem possible to me
that any woman could accept such a
sacrifice and retain her respect for the
man who made it; does it to you?"
"I had never thought of it as being a
sacrifice. It is more like a part of the
homage which a loyal subject would
give freely to the one whom he had en
throned." - '
She looked at him in doubt. .'I can
never tell when you are in earnest and
when you are trying to be satirical."
"Oh, I beg you to believe I wouldn't
jest, upon such a serious subject," he
hastened to say.
"Then I can't understand your posi
tion at all. ' You you write about wom
en, and you should understand them
better than that. ; Isn't it true that even
the strongest woman prefers to look up
rather than down, if her husband be
noble and brave and generally worth
looking up to?"
Eingbrand winced, for had he not
signed his name to a certain narrative
in which the motive turned upon the
theory that deep in the heart of every
woman there dwells an unspoken desire
to be dominated? He smiled at his un
conscious mendacity and wondered why
it is that a man who chances to be iu
love cannot apply the wisdom of other
days to the solution of his own riddles.
"Perhaps you are right, after all," he
said, musingly. ".Now that you recall
it, it seems quite possible that I may at.
one time have held and expressed such
a view myself. Your proviso, however,
helps my side of the question."
"In what way?"
"By asking Tor a rare combination of
virtues in the man."
"How do you mean?"
"You said he should be noble and
brave and generally worth looking up
to."
"Are those qualities rare?"
"Eare enough, I fear. I think there
are not many of us who could fill the re
quirements. But to return to Miss
Bradfern : You think she will be on the
governing hand, do you?"
"Perhaps not quite that, but I'm very
sure she has some shall we call them
convictions? that will make Mr. Ea
leigh very uncomfortable. One of them
is the idea that it is a part of her mis
sion to bring about the social recog
nition of the negroes." She said "nig
gers," but the provincialism bore no
contemptuous accent.
The remark caught Eingbrand off his
guard and he said: "There is room for
reform along that line, isn't there?"
"That depends very much upon the
point of view." Hester drew herself up
and a shade of austerity came into her
manner. "I'm not quite sure how you
regard it in the north, though papa says
you make no distinction or, at least,
not very much. With us the question
has been definitely settled for a long
time."
He was besotted enough to try to
argue the point with her. "Don't you
think that much of the objection to so
cial equality on the score of the color of
a person's skin is prejudice?" he asked
"You are at liberty to call it that or
anything else you please, she an
swered, with chilly preciseness, "and
there is nothing to prevent your put
ting yourself upon an equality with our
servants if you feel so disposed.
"I'm sure I don't wish to do that,
though I'm quite as certain that the
question of color or race would not pre
vent me. I think the negroes in the
north are given all the social rights
they expect or deserve; they" are at
least the social equals of white people
m their own class.
ITester rose and stood before him
with sparkling eyes and flushed cheeks,
and he forgot all about the argument
in his admiration of her superb loveli
ness. "That's just it!" she exclaimed;
"you all are quite willing to let the ne
groes take their chances in the north,
but you. try to compel us to accept
them as equals, without regard toclass,
whether we want to or not."
It was not their first difference, and
Ringbrand smiled. "You are of the
south, aren't you, Miss Hester? I wish
you would teach me how to be enthus
iastic," he said, mildly.
"It would be a hopeless task," she re
plied. ' ,
"I'm not so sure about that. I think
it would depend upon the teacher."
"But you would be enthusiastic on
the wrong side, if 1 did."
"Perhaps you might convert me in
the process."
"I am afraid that isn't possible; and
then it wouldn't be honest of you to let
ine," she added, with feminine incon
sistency. Eingbrand smiled complacentty. "I
like that," he said. "I shall try here
after to be both enthusiastic and loyal
to my section."
Thinking about this conversation
when she was braiding her hair before
her mirror that night, Hester blushed
when she remembered how emphatic
she had been. "I hope he didn't think
I was inhospitable and rude," she said,
speaking softly to herself; "but he
doesn't know how his cool way of as
serting himself irritates one. And I
was almost angry, too; I'm sure I was
going to say something spiteful; but
there was a look in his eyes that said
no, just as plainly as could be. : He al
ways looks at me that way when I'm
about to say something mean, and then
I can't go on. I wonder but that
would be ridiculous; he ought to mar
ry a Vassar girl at the very least; some
body with calm gray eyes and 11 uiTy hair,
a girl with advanced ideas and all that,
and with plenty of intellect, so she
could help him in his work. That isn't
much like you, is it?" speaking to the
reflection in the mirror; "you're noth
ing but an enthusiastic, impulsive coun
try girl, with coarse black hair" she
drew one of the shining braids over
her shoulder to look at it "and eye
brows that make me think of the pic-
ture of Beatrice in the big Shakespeare
doWnstairs-bnly ' she's pretty and
you're not.".
- Mirrors do not always tell the truth,
and'nester's must have .been a very
Ananias of a looking-glass if it reflect
ed any such distorted likeness of the
embodiment of sweet, wholesome wom
anhood standing before it; there were
strengt h and pride in every line of the
beautiful face and perfect form, but it
was the strength that harmonizes with
grace and purity, and it was the pride
that abhors mean things and scorns
the ignoble arts of deceit and subter
fuge.

The Republican. Convention Splits
W. K. Ellis For Congress.
' ; 1 ' Oregonlan. ' '
Tbe Republican convention of the sec
ond Oregonlan district, which met in
Portland yeBterda, avoided a direct de
cision of the Multnomah county contro-
versy by seating one-half of each of tbe
rival delegations. id is result ' was
brought about largely through the in
fluence of (Judge George H. Williams.
The convention met in tbe morning, and
the Organization ' promptly fell into tbe
bands of the Carey faction. The tempor-
ary cnairman, Mr. falton, appointed a
committee of seven on credential?, the
majority ot which Was known to be un
friendly to the regular .Republican or
ganization. The convention adjourned,
and the committee, at its session, last
ing 'several hours, heard addresses by
advocates of the two factions. The re-
suit was three reports to the convention.
The first, signed by four committeemen,
favored seating the Carey faction." The
second, signed by two members, favored
the' regular organization. The, third,
signed by Judge Taylor, of Astoria, de
clared that both were in the wrong, but
favored seating one-half of each delega
tion. In the debate which followed,
Judge Williams was called upon and
made a fall and impartial review of the
situation, aud bis deduction, and de
clared that in his opinion Judge Taylor's
report ought to be adopted. And it was,
by vote 37 to 2;). The stat convention
today will undoubtedly take the same
action. .
The program was carried oat, and El
us was nominated lor congress. Hut a
gratifying surprise followed, when the
convention, in a straight issue on free
silver, in the election of delegates to the
national convention, elected sound
money men. The vote was very close,
but it was a decided victory nevertheless
A sound-money delegation throughout
the national convention is now assured.
This in brief is the story of a very inter
esting day.
ELLIS NOMINATED.
Nominations for congress took place
at the evening session. When Chair
man Fulton announced that nomina
tions for congressman were in order,
Brown of Morrow placed Congressman
Ellis' name before the convention
Brown eulogized Ellis as a man who
had worked his way from the plow to
one of the greatest positions the state
ffou Id give him.
"I have the honor and privilege of
naming Eastern Oregon's greatest states
man, W. R. Ellis," be said. (Cheers.)
Hia statesmanship, he declared, towered
as did his physical body. "From the
sagebrush plains to the tree-clad hills
of the Cascades," the voice of the people
would declare itself ior Ellis. As a con
gressman, he bad advanced just as rap
idly as it was possible for any one to
rise. The speaker urged Ellis' candi
dacy on tbe ground that it was not wise
to change for a new and untried man,
thus adding one-more to two untutored
congressmen. Ellis was eulogized be
cause of his honor, integrity and man
hood. Belts of Umatilla followed in second
ing the nomination of Ellis on behalf of
Umatilla countv.
District Attorney Hume arose to also,
second the nomination of Ellis. Hume
was greeted with loud cheers, especially
when he stated that "on behalf of
twenty-four members of tbe Multnomah
county delegation, he seconded the nom
nation of W. B. Ellis."
Allen of Columbia county also second
ed the nomination of Ellis.
: In nominating Moody, Smith of Wasco
acknowledged the merits of Ellis, who
was his personal friend. He said Moody
was the candidate of Wasco, Gilliam,
Grant and Sherman counties. ' He par
ticularly laid stress upon the fact that
he represented the material interests of
the state. "A banker," he said, "but
statesman-like have been his dealings
witn uh loat we come nere wim a
united voice and ask his nomination.
He is one of the younger men a man of
such personal independence that he has
never accepted any offer of combination
or trade; and he would rather accept
honorable defeat at your hands than se
cure dishonorable success.'? This slap
at the Ellis-Carey trade was well under
stood by tbe delegates.
In nominating J. L. Hand, Johns of
Baker referred to the fact that the nom
ination was conceded to Eastern Ore
gon, and be declared that Baker county
had never received any distinct recogni
tion at the hands of any Republican
convention for any important political
' W. K. ELLIS.
office. " He eulogized Band as an honor
able and loyal man and Republican.
The nominating speeches were not
very long, and were all in good taste.
The convention lost' no time in getting
to the work of balloting. The tellers
- quickly gathered the ballots, and when
Judge Carey was reached, he arose and
said
"I take pleasure in casting 23 votee
from Multnomah county for W. R.
Ellis."
This, of course, provoked cheers.
When the regular delegation was
reached, Judge Mallory, who had been
elected chairman, saw. Carev's erand
stand play In the following:
'I take especial pleasure in casting
Multnomah county's 23 votes for M. A.
Moody." (Cheers.)
Daring the progress of the ballot there
was great tension on the part of the con
vention. It was seen that Moody and
Ellis were running verv even. There
was, no little anxiety on the part of spec
tators to know if the trade by which Mr.
Ellis secured the votes of the Frank fac
tion could be at once successful. It de
veloped that it was not yet to be free
silver's tarn to yell. ' The vote was as
follows :
Ellis, 51; Moody, 49; Rand, 14:
blank, 1.
Ellis lacked seven votes of nomination.
About this time Mr. Paxton, of Mult
nomah, sent a facetious note to Brown.
of Morrow, anxiously inquiring if he
had any telegrams from Washington an
nouncing whether Mr. Ellis would etand
on the St. Louis platform, if nominated
and elected. Mr. Paxton had in mind
the Hermann telegram read in tbe Al
bany convention Tuesday. Brown read
tbe note, assumed a noncommittal look,
said nothing and shoved the note in his
pocket.
It was generally believed that for the
second ballot Band's strength, would
break for Ellis, and the expectation was
not disappointed. Ellis came within
one of nomination, the vote standing
Ellis 57, Moody 52, Rand 6. There was
a great cheer from the Carev faction
when the vote was announced.
Ellis was nominated on the third bal
lot, receiving 62 votes. When the 58th
vote in the count was reached tbe con
vention broke into a great cheer. The
Ellis men and Carey faction went Into
an ecstacy of delight. Hats were thrown
into the air, umbrellas and canes waved
and bedlam broke loose generally. . Free
silver and its great ally, the Carey fac
tion, were strictly in it. When the
vote was announced there was another
cheer.
FOB DELEGATES.
The free-silver issue was again brought
out squarely on the vote for delegates to
the national convention. Hendley and
Bourne are for free silver, and Parrish
and McCamant are for sound money.
The result was remarkably close, and re
sulted in the defeat of free silver. It
was as follows: Parrish, 60; McCamant
58; Bourne, 56; Hendley, 56. The
Carey faction' and the free-silver men
looked a little dazed when the result
was announced. There were lond calls
for McCamant, and be responded in an
eloquent speech, Parrish likewise made
a short speech.
Married.
Mr. Harry Macey and Mies Ella Van-
Duyn were married at 2 p. m. yesterday
afternoon by Rev. J. H. Wood. The
wedding was a private affair, only a few
friends of the contracting parties being
present. After congratulations thev
were regaled with a fine lunch.
