New York Recorder. “It was bad enough,” said the judge, ting his gill of outside sola, *‘to have lived in Absolom, South Dakota, but if any man had told me at the time [ first saw it that its regeneration wasn human possibility I should have considered him fit for a post’s geav Absolom, sir, would have made a convict town blush in a total eclipss. I waste no wordson it. If [ hadn't gona there for my health—and, speaking frankly, if [ hadn’t enjoyed the fun—I should have quit in twelve hours after setting foot in it. But let me toll you a plain story: *The one tolerable character in the town at the time I arrived there—and nobody counted him & citizen, as you might say, for it was obvioas he had only a listle while to stay anyhow—was the editor of the opposition newspaper, called so beenuse the second establishoed. “IHe was o young tenderfoot from tha east, dying easily, but fast, of consump- tion, and ran the paperm ytolighten his last moments and keep his hand in. He had been an art critic and foreiga editor on a Boston newspaper, and said it wis a new sensation to write for the average Absolom reader—said that his only rezret was for the time ho had wasted on acultivated mugwamp audi- ence when he could have been working owboys and miners. His paper, the Tonic, had w great pull over its rival, the Impyrean, in itscable dispatehes, which poor young Ray used to write himself. Good p , the Absolom Tonice, but I thought it interviewed Li Hung Chang too often on the Chinese question, “Ray was the best man in town. The worst man in town was plentiful. There were many claimants for the distinetion. They wera 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 tho public. Major Aunderson Teakle had probably the longest and most villuinous record among all the claimants, and, what was certainly in his favor, he had arrived at the point when he could teavel on his reputation with- out unn 3 As he was natueally o reserved and fastidious man, this suited hi own disposition, and so few incidents now marked his carc that he frequently spoke of the serenit in which his laterr years was being led. Ile enjoyed h:. prominence in the com- munity “It was a thorough surprise to both of us when he and [ became involved in a personal difference. It wus so totally unexpected. This affaie nrose out of u little transaction in mining stock. and though each of us acted as the other would have done had our positions be reversed our interests were diamety cally opposite and trouble was bound to follow. It was one of those occasions when circumstances were entirely to blame. “lmust say T regretted the occur- rence. Of course I was obliged to take some action, but the outlook was not satisfactory to me. Settling my score with the major was all well enough, but the matter could not be expected 10 end there on account of the stunding of the parties and my business intevests, which were important, might suffer, 1 discussed the matter with Ray, who, from his conservative ecastern training, naturally inclined to the sume view, He admitted the unfortunate elements in the situation, but he offered a sugges- tion. oo and un- Spot Rio, ennessoe Is there any reason for immediate steps?’ he asked ***No,’ suid I, ‘the matter might hang on for a little while unless the major takes the initiative.’ “Well, then,’ suid he, ‘suppose you wait a fow duys and I will overhaul the major’s record and work up public sen- timent against him. ) make it more or less of a public matte *Tnat is very obliging of you, Ray, I snid, 'but you don’t reckon on one thing.’ *¢And what is that? **Your position in this town,” said I 48 unique. Your health preeludes the possibility of any one’s taking personal umbrage at the utterances of the Tonice, and your popularity further increnses the frecdom which you enjoy. Now, the result is that while your estimates of well known individuals are eagerly perused there is a certain ivresponsi- bility attgching to them, [ have known youto tear out fifty men right in this town without influencing public estima- tion of them one particle.” “*Lam afraid that is true,’ said he, “UA erusndo against Major Teakle would attract considerable entertain- ment. But, if you will pardon me for saying so, it would not be accepted seriously, coming from you.’ “¥Phére’s no use going to the Empy rean,’ suid Ray. “That paper has no white corpuscles in its blood, See here!’ he suddenly excluimed, ‘what's the mat with booming you instead?’ “*The very thing!” T eried. And little did 1 think that that proposition and ity acceptance were fraught with the des- tiny of Absolom. I confess I had only Major Teakle in mind. “Ray 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 o deseription of my new residence on State street, which was photo- graphed from three different points. While this was in hand Ray prepared the way by complimentary allusions in the personal column, For instunce: * % % Thereis & general expeotation at Washington that when the oattle for tehood opens the arguments of Judge Ap- pledick will carry irresistible weight with our national legisiators. * % & & Besides possessing the finest palr of silver -mounted pistols in Absolom, Judgo Appledick is a close and eothusiastio student of ladian autiquitjes. *And so on. The article eated something of a sensation on its appear- ance, und I was pleased to note as an index of the pulse of the town that inside of twelve hours I was invited to become adirector in thres new wmining compa- nies, with ground floor privileges. *When I repocted this to Ray he was considerably tickled. * *Laok at thut for & beginning,’ said he. ‘Suy, are you prepared to give $50 to a deserving chavity? 1 told him I was. “OAlL right,’ said he. ‘We'll present a brand-new gt sign, four fcet high, to the railroad stution and wake the com- pany up.’ *Phe next morning he had a long ar- ticle about this public-spirited gift, and the wayor wrote me o letter of thanks. stoek. 1114@12¢; small lots | Then you can”™ could safely go aResll now. * *Why, man ative,” he replied. only just begun th tip the cart.’ *Don’t waiting too long,’ said 1, ‘for I'm spoiling to get at that rascal.’ Next day something happened. ‘I've Keep nyp The Tonic, I nced not say, kept right up to | the mark, but to-ny consternation the Empyrean printed an article with the following headling KLE'S SPLENDID OF LEADING ' GIT1ZEN GENEROSITY.

When Ray saw it he simply remarked: ‘What sickening headlines that blacksmith can write when he tries.’ *“Young man,’ said 1, ‘you are ro- sponsible for this, You refused to let me go ahead when [ wanted to, and now Tenkle has coppered me.

Both papers carefully stripped and went in, and there wis no sparring for wind. It was beautiful fighting, Of course, ngainst Ray's resources the Impyrean wouldn’t have stood the ghost of a show, except that Teakle took charge of the fight himself, and though he wasn’t a cultured man he was an - fernally clever one. The Empyrean, as we happened to know, was prepired for a campaign of abuse, but, as Ray pre dicted, they didn’t dere begin it, and we never deviated from our course an inch. iside of a week, sir, there wasn’ta man in town that didn’t take off his hat to me, and Teakle was very nearly as highly esteeme Tt was expensive: in three weeks [ spent amatter of $1,500 or $2.000 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 me into the posi tion of n moderute drinker and a high license ndvocate. This was to round out the list of cardinal virtues I possessed, and it was needful, for I don’s believe Moses was & much more sublime and dignified character than 1 had become, and my devotion to the interests of Ab-: solom and the northwest was something herol *l didn’t mind the expense.

It susequently turned intou Society for the Encouragement of California” Wines, but its inception was perfectly sincere. **All this time Ray remained practic- ally unknown to the majority of our in- itants, 1 grew to be foud of him, us if he had been my brother; he was 8o damn plucky. His sympathy for Abso- lom seemed to be sort of inherent, for he never went about the town much; used to lie abed of a morning, reading and smoking, and when he got to his of- fice woulu hang about, theve until 3 or 4 g. m., working and cursing the Boston papers for not understanding the coun- try. I had stopped talking to him about Toakle; 1 just let him forge ahead and come along 1n his wash, with the tow line caught around the thwart, fust; till one day he said: *Well, judge, and now how do you think we stand?’ *I told him the question wa thought, * [ think we’re out of sight,’ said he. *And now’s the time to clinch things.” ys I ‘A 2 ** ‘Gt your fences out for the territor- ial legislature,’ said he. * “The rails are cut,’ said 1. *And s0 they were, for I naturally looked some way ahead. **Then let’s get to work,” says he.

I tell you, sir, what had gone before wasn’t'a dircumstance to what followed when wa were publicly an- nounced us candidates. It was a wire- wrapped republican district, and the contest was for thg homioation,of course. But the town would have nominated us both twice over1f it could. If Moses and the prophets had located in Abso- lom they would have considered it an honor to be introduced w Teakle and myself. As it wus, our fame became national. Ray gave me an acquaint- ance with promwment men all over the world that was unapproach uble. He would begin his Washing- ton letter thus, for instance: **The ac- tivity in building palatial residences continues unabated. It is a pleasure to refloct that the man who made Wash- ington what it is,*Boss’ Shepard, always acknowledges his indebtedness to Judgze Appledick for many suggestions which were embraced in his farsighted plans,” Or he would say in his London dis- putches: *Mr. Gladstone hus written an autograph letter thunking Judge Apple- die of Absolom, Dalk., for a valuable monograph on ghost dances. ’ “He made me draw up and obtain sig- natures to a petition to the czur with BUNDS“MM ER.

I reckoned on enghteen major- ity, sure, first ballot, and maybe twenty- five, 1 took the calculation round in m, pocket to Ray. He was in the office. He was lying on the table, white as pasteboard. He had just had a hemor- rhuage, We took him home. He died the next morning holding my hand. ‘Judge,” he said, ‘you're elected and the town is made.” Then ho gave a laugh and suid in a quesr Kind of slow way, *And eastern oulture has done it, sure enough. Fideliter didicisse’——, That was the last thing he said. I wentto the shop and wrote a brief notice of his death, with a tribute to his chavacter. 1 stated that I haa boughi out the Tonic and would con- tinue it in its well known line of devo- tion to the interests of Absolom, mentioned that [ would take 1t as a sonal honor if the citizeas would attend | Ray’s funeral in a body. Do you know what Sir, the old Ad#m—no, & in my nature was up in blind madness. I L lost Ray, who was the substance of everything that I had gathered about me, and as | recognized the fact I de- termined to go buck to where [ started from. It was simple. I would just get the drop on Teakle und end it all. You know the old heathens used to killa man’s encmies at his grave. Well, 1 didn’t feel just then that our civiliza- tion had been worth working so hard for. “There was an immense concour: the services over Ray. We joined in a procession and mavehed out to the ceme- tery. As we fell in I saw Teakle and a number of his leading supporters. I looked at him. He lifted his hat—he had a black band on it—and bowed vely. After the coffin 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, [said, his use- “For,” said I, ‘gentlemen. there lies the man who made Absolom what it is. Beside him Major Teakle and I have been hewers of wood and drawers of water. On the edifice that he has reaved we have laid no o much as a brick, our hands have been held off its foundations, and he, not we, dropped tne plumb line over its courses.’ Sir, I told them that trath, and | made the truth as bitter to Major Teakle as [ could. What T could tell, without descending into trivial de- tails unbetitting the occasion, that 1 did. I spake for half an hour, and held the major's eye with mine until I closed. ***Now,” thinks I, ‘let him scek me out when he chuoses.” *Sir, it befell othe Teakle stepped forward, amid a gilence so profourd that it overpassed tne silence of death itsolf present among us, and stood opposite me with bared head. ** ‘Gentlemen,' he said, ‘citizens of Absolom, every word that Judge Apple- dick has spoken is simple fuct, and I honor him for speaking it. 1 honor him for knowing what his loss is, for T have had a good reason myself to know what it mcans, and I honor him for being stirred to the profoundest depths of his being. Besido this grave and in tho fuce of what Absolom is today there can be no rivalry between Judge Apple- dick and myself. 1 tender him my hand, and elaim a share in his sorrows. And I withdraw from the politicai con- test in which we are engaged and sk my supporters to accept him as the only candidate.” “That was Major Teaki speech. That is why 1 am here a representative of my state in Washingron today and why Teakie will be governor before long. I Ly it all to Ray.” my iden was? r, the old Cain vise.
