THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION
The Bond Election.
"pHE school bond election to
-provide funds for building the
auditorium-gymnasium is called
for Friday, march 13,, There is
no need to urge upon the voters
of District No. One the import
ance of this proposal and the great
need for the building that will re
sult should the bond issue be au
thorized. Enough has already been
said touching these points. The
importance of the issue, however,
should act as a stimulous to the
voters and urge them to get out to
the polls and express their desires
If you want to see the bond issue
prevail, come out and vote; if you
are opposed to the placing of fur
ther indebtedness of this nature
upon the district, come out and
vote. Let the matter be settled
definitely one way or the other, as
all such questions should be.
Th ere should be no indifference
manifested.
In the presentation of this ques
tion to the patrons and taxpayers
of School District No. One, there
has been no desire on the part of
the school board, or members of
the faculty to overstate the facts
in any particular, neither have
they been unduly hasty in bring
ing the question to issue, desiring
that the electorate should thor
oughly understand the proposal
and have plenty of time for delib
eration. We take it, therefore,
that there is nothing much more to
be said, yet there are those in the
district who seem to think the old
original bond issue, incurred in
the building of the schoolhouse on
the hill, that a number of years
ago was sold and torn down, is
still unpaid. This issue was for
$8000, and was entirely paid more
than two years ago. Besides, the
$40,000 issue is now down to $38,
000, and the interest paid to date.
This latter issue was refunded two
years ago and is now on a serial
basis and will be greatly reduced
before payments of prnicipal be
g'n on the proposed issue of $20,
000. We wish to impress upon
our readers the fact that the dis
trict is not in debt one cent above
$38,000 at the present time, either
bonded or warrant indebtedness,
and as for the burden to be added
by the proposed issue, that will be
practically nil, though there must
be a small addition provided in
the tax levy for taking care of in
terest, and this has been figured
out to be a fraction over one-half
mill. This will be more than com
pensated for in the value of the
new structure to the district.

What's Gone Before.
Frank Beeson, from Albany. New York,
reaches Uenton, Wyoming, then ISliS
western terminus of the Pacific Railroad.
He had been ordered by physicians to Beek
a climate "high and dry," He is robbed of
most of his money in his hotel and loses his
last twenty dollars at monte in "The Big
Tent," a dance hall and gambling resort in
the "roaring" town of Benton.
Edna Montoyo, companion of a gambler,
is believed by Frank to have cajoled him
purposely into the game. Broke, disconso
late over his discovery that "the lady of the
blue eyes," as he calls her, is what she is.
and finally humiliated over his glaring
"greenness," Frank repulses Edna when
she begs him to go away with her, sobbing
ly telling him that she had made a mistake
in letting him lose his money. He goes to
take a job with
George Jenks, a teamster in a wagon
train about to leave for Salt. Lake City.
CHAPTER VII
Westward Ho!
My new boots were burning, my
thigh was chafed raw from the sway
ing Colt, and my face and throat
were parched with the dust, when I
arrived at the encampment of Jenks'
train.
Some dozen white-topped wagons
were standing grouped in a circle and
figures were busily moving among
them, and the thin blue smoke of
their fires was a welcoming signal.
I marked women and children. The
whole prospect they, the breakfast
smoke, the grazing animals, the stout
vehicles, a line of washed clothing
was homey. Jenks himself came out
to meet me.
"Hooray! Here you are," he said.
"You fetched all your outfit?"
"What you see," I confessed. "They
stripped me clean."
"Wall, all you need is a blanket.
You can pay for it out of your wages
or turn it in at the end of the trip."
He conducted me on, along the
groups and fires and bedding outside
the wagon circle, and halted where a
heavy man, pf face smooth-shaven,
except chin, sat upon a wagon-tongue,
whittling a stick.
"Shake hands with Cap'n Hyrum
Adams, Frank. He's the boss of the
train."
Captain Adams offered a thick hand
which proved singularly soft and flat
ulent under the callouses.
"Glad to meet you, stranger," he
acknowledged. "Breakfasted?"
"Not yet, sir. I was anxious to
reach the train."
"Nobody goes hungry from the Ad
ams wagon, stranger," Captain Adams
observed. He slightly raised his
voice, peremptory, "Rachael! Fetch
our guest some breakfast."
There were two women in view,
busied with domestic cares. One was
elderly, as far as might be judged
by her somewhat slatternly figure.
The other promptly ladled food
from a kettle to a platter, poured a
tin cupful of coffee from the pot, and
bore them to me; her eyes down, shy
ly handed them.
I thanked her but was not- present
ed. To the Captain's "That will do,
Rachael," she turned dutifully away;
not so soon, however, but that I had
seen a fresh young face within the
bonnet confines a round rosy face
according well with the buxom curves
of her as she again bent over her
wash-board.
"Our fare is that of the tents of
Abraham, stranger," spoke the Cap
tain. "Such as it is, you are welcome
to. We are a plain people who walk
in the way of the Lord, for that is
commanded."
"I ask nothing better, sir," I an
swered. The pork and beans and the black
tween the hours of 2:00 o'clock
and 7:00 o'clock p. m., and get
out the vote.
i" .vs
her heart new joy;
mm
unsweetened coffee evidently were
what I needed, for I began to mend
wonderfully ere I was half through
the course.
"You are from the East, stranger?"
he inquired.
"Yes, sir. I arrived in Benton only
yesterday."
"A Sodom," he growled harshly. "A
tented sepulcher. And it will perish.
I tell you, you do well to leave it, you
do well to yoke yourself with the ap
pointed of this earth, rather than
stay in that sin-pit of the eternally
damned."
"I agree with you, sir," said I. "I
did not find Benton to be a pleasant
place. But I had not known, when I
started from Omaha."
"Possibly not," Adams assented.
"The devil is attentive; he is present
:u the stations, and he will ride in
those gilded palaces even to the Jor
dan, but he shall not cross. In the
name of the Lord we shall face him.
What good there shall come, shall
abide; but the evil shall wither. Not,"
he added, "that we stand against the
railroad. It is needed, and we have
petitioned without being heard. We
are strong but isolated, we have goods
to sell, and the word of Brigham
Young has gone forth that a railroad
we must have. Against the harpies,
the gamblers and all the Gentile van
ities we will stand upon our own feet
by the help of Almighty God."
At this juncture a tall double-jointed
youth of about my age, carrying
an ox goad in his hand, strolled to us
as if attracted by the harrangue.
' "My son Daniel," the captain in
troduced. "This stranger travels to
Zion with us, Daniel."
The youth had the grip of a vise,
and seemed to enjoy emphasizing it
while cunningly watching my face.
"Howdy," he drawled.
I left soon to join Jenks' wagon
and as I passed Rachael, she glanced
quickly up. I caught her eyes with
a blush. She was indeed wholesome
if not absolutely pretty.
"Wall, those Mormons are good pro
viders," Jenks commented. "The11
share with you whatever they have,
for no pay, but if you rub 'em the
wrong way or go to dickerin' with 'em
they're eloser'n the hide on a cold
mule. You didn't make sheep's eyes
at any of the women?"
"However, I could not help but see
that the captain's daughter is pleas
ing to look upon."
"How? His daughter?"
"Miss Rachael."
"Whoa, man! She's his wife, and
not for Gentiles. They're both his
wives; whether he has more in Utah
I don't know. But you'd best let her
alone. She's been j'ined to him."
This took me all aback. He was
twice her age, apparently.
"And Daniel, his son is he mar
ried?" "That whelp? No, he ain't married,
yet. But he will be, soon as he takes
his pick, 'cordin' to law and gospel
among them people. You bet you;
he'll be married plenty."
Later in the day as I sat resting
upon a convenient wagon-tongue Dan
iel hulked to me.
"You know me?" he asked.
"Your name is Daniel, isn't it?"
"No, 'tain'. It's Bonnie Bravo on
the trail."
"All right, sir," said I. "Whichever
you prefer."
"I 'laow you aim to go through with
this train to Salt Lake, do you?"
"That's the engagement I've made
with Mr. Jenks."
"It's four hundred mile, an twenty
mile at a stretch, withaout water.
Most the water's pizen, too, from hyar
to the mountings."
"I'll have to drink what the rest
drink, I suppose."
"I 'laow the Injuns are like to get
us. They're powerful bad in that
thar desert. Ain't afeared o' Injuns,
be yu?"
"I'll have to take my chances on
that, too!"
"We don't think much 'o Gentiles,
yonder. We don't want 'em, nohaow.
They'd all better git aout. The
Saints settled that country an' it's
ourn."
"If you're a sample, your'e wel
come to live there," I retorted. "I
think I'd prefer some place else."
"Haow?" he bleated. "Thar ain't
no place as good. All the rest of the
world has sold itself to the devil."
We remained in silence for a mo
ment while he waited, provocative.
"Say, Mister," he blurted sudden
ly, "kin yu shoot?"
"I presume I could if I had to.
Why?"
"Becuz I'm the dangest best shot
with a Colt's in thiB hyar train. Any
time yu want to try a little poppin'
yu let me know." And with this, he
left me, with the uneasy impression
that he and I were due to measure
strength in one way or another.
About three o'clock with whins
cracking, the Captain Adams wagon
in tne lead (two pink sunbonnets up
on the seat), the valorous Daniel's
next, we toiled creaking and swaying
up tne Benton road, amidst the eddies
of hot, scalding dust.
It was a mixed train "of Gentile
mules and the more numerous Mor
mon oxen; therefore not strictly a
"bull" train, but by pace designated
as such..
Trudging manfully at the left fore
wheel behind Mr. Jenks' four span of
mules I played the teamster al
though sooth to say there was little
of play in the job, on that road, at
that time of the day.
At sundown, having eaten our sup
pers, we were sitting by our fires,
snoring and talking, when, as a con
struction train of box cars clanked
by on the railroad I chanced to note
a figure spring out asprawl, alight
with a whiffle of sand, and staggering
up hasten for us.
First it accosted the hulk Daniel.
I Eaw him lean from his sdadlc; then
he rode in, bawling like a calf:
"Paw! Paw! Hey, you-all! Thar's
u woman yonder in britches an' she
'laows to come on. She's lookin'
for Mister Jenks."
In a storm of rude raillery "That's
a hoss on you, George!" "Didn't know
you owned one o' them critters,
George," "Does she wear the britches,
George?" and so forth my friend
Jenks arose .peering, while the soli
tary figure, braving our stares, came
on to the fires.
"Gawd almighty!" Mr. Jenke de
livered. It was My Lady formerly My Lady
clad In embroidered short Spanish
jacket, tightish velvet pantaloonB,
booted to the knees, pulled down up
on her yellow hair a black soft hat,
and hanging from the just-revealed
belt around her slender waist, re
volver trifle.
She paused, small and alone, view
ing us, her eyes very blue, her face
very white.
"Is Mr. Jenks there?" she hailed
clearly.
"Damn' if I ain't," he mumbled,
glowering at me.
"I wish to engage passage to Salt
Lake," she said.
"We haven't no place for a woman,
ma'am," Jenks demurred. "
"There are other women in the
train," Edna insisted,
"Where's Pedro? Where's Mon
oyo?" asked Jenks. '
' Her eyes blazed.
"He? That snake? I shot himl"
"What! You! Killed him?" Ex
clamations broke from the bystanders.
"No, I didn't have to! But when he
tried to abuse me, I defended myself.
Wasn't that right, gentlemen?"
"Right or wrong, he'll be after you,
won't he?"
The question held a note of alarm.
"I am only an employee, here,
madam," I faltered. "If I had an out
fit of my own 1 certainly would help
you."
She flushed painfully; she did not
glance at me direct again, but her un
spoken thanks enfolded me.
The large form of Captain Adams
came striding.
"What's this?" he demanded harsh
ly. "An ungodly woman? Get you
gone, Delilah!"
"I am going, sir," she replied. "I
ask nothing from you or these gen
tlemen." "Them's the two she's after, paw;
Jenks an' that greenie," Daniel
bawled. "Ain't she purty, though!
She's dressed in britches."
Get you gone," Captain Adams
thundered. "And these your para
mours with you. No brazen hussy in
men's garments shall travel with this
train to Zion no, not a mile of the
way."
