SUN SHADOWS,
here never was success so nobly gained.
Or victory so free from earthly dross,
But, in the winning, someone had been
pained
And someone suffered lot'. <
There never was so wisely planned a fetSf
{ Or festal throng with hearts on .pleasure
bent,
But some neglected one outside the gate
Wept tears of discontent.
There never was a bridal morning, fair
With Hope’s blue skies and Love’s un
clouded sun
For two fond hearts, that did not bring de
spair
To some sad other one.

might have
done duty as a fog-horn, and as, by
climbing a couple of steps of the rickety
ladder leading to the little attic, he
could have shouted his morning greeting
into his step-daughter’s very ear, it is
needless to state that his last query was
entirely superfluous. Perhaps he
thought so, too, for he did not wait lor
any reply, but turned and clumped out
to the forlorn little lean-to, cut by the
big rocks, which he dignified by the
name “stable,’’ whence the sounds which
presently issued informed the occupants
of the house that he was venting some of
his bad temper on his two unfortunate
horses.
Up in the little, stuffy attic a girl
knelt, staring stonily out of the tiny win
dow, through which the morning sun,
rising over Red top, had shot a blistering
ray and wakened her, long before Orrin
Halpine had called her. From the
room below came the cross, whining
voices of two or three of the little Hal
pines, quarrelling over the possession of
a little, scrawny, blear-eyed kitten one
of them had found at Gray’s boarding
camp the day before. Several big blue
flies buzzed drowsily on the pane. From
the stable came the sound of kicks and
curses, and the plunging of frightened
horses. Out by the hen-house, old
Podge, one of Orrin Ilalpine's starved
looking, miserable dogs, lay asleep.
Two-year-old Bud toddled up and kicked
him, as he had seen his father do, and
the dog ran away, terrified, but without
n yelp. The Halpine dogs got kicked
for yelping, as Podge kuew only too
well.
The girl at the window in the attic
drooped her head and groaned.
“Oh, God! I s’pose ail ov ’em’ll be
like him. Pore mammj—pore, broke
down, tired mammy! Jes’ t’ think ef
they all grows up brutes, like the'r pop!
An’ how kin it ever be helped, when
they all sees and an’ hears him, all th’
time drunk, an’ swearin’, an’ cusain’, ’an
’busin’ mammy, an’ them, an’ th’ pore,
dumb critters! Oh, God, I cyarn’t stan’
this no morel Please help us!”
Above the wrangling of the children
and the clatter of breakfast dishes rose a
tired, cracked, female voice: “Hattie!
Hat-tee! Air yo’ up?”
The girl at the window rose slowly to
her feet, wiped her eyes, and clambered
down the little ladder, near the foot of
which stood the family wash-stand, con*
listing of a rude bench, on which stood
a pail 6f water, with a gourd in it, and
a tin basin.

Hattie washed herself, wiped on the
long roller-towel near by,deftly fastened
up her long, thick, wavy hair, and be
gan to assist her mother in getting
breakfast, without a word.
Thsy did not look like mother and
daughter, these two women. Mrs. Hal
pine, at seventeen, had been an uncom
monly pretty girl. At thirty-six, she was
HOMER, BANKS COUNTY. CA.. WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 10, 1892.
old, thin, faded, with a weak,tremulous
‘mouth and unkempt, half-bleached hair
—an old woman before her time, worn
with rheumatism and toil. She had never
known anything better—only for a brief
year, and that was so long ago that the
memory was an indistinct one. Fred
Barnett came to the mountains, all the
way from Nashville, to fish, and hunt,
and sketch, and pass a quiet summer.
He came to Woodson's Gap, and met
Tiliie Parsons, and his six weeks’ outing
became twelve,and the twelve weeks be
came a year, for he and Tiliie were mar
ried, and he stayed and worked the little
mountain farm—stayed because his
people had written to him that he need
not come, except alone.
It was not the life for
scholarly, luxury loving Fred Barnett,
and one cool October night, after a day
of restless wandering in the woods, no
wrote a few letters, kissed his wife ten
derly, aad went to sleep, never to
waken.
Tiliie cried a good deal, but her heart
did not break; and when the baby came,
three months later, her sorrow only ex
pressed itself in the wish that Fred might
have been there to see the little one.
Then, when big Orrin Halpine, who
had been so attentive to her sister Susie,
suddenly asked her to marry him—prin
cipally because Susie had refused him,
but Tiliie did not know it—she con
sented, and for a while was just as happy
as though Fred Barnett had never come
to Woodson's Gap.
Babies came, and more babies, and
Hattie grew into girlhood and woman
hood almost before her mother noticed
it. Then—only a year gone by—a letter
had come from Fred Barnett's mother—
a carefully worded epistle, saying that
if Hattie would come to her, and leave
everything in the old life, she would do
well for her, and bring her up a lady, as
became a daughter of the Barnetts.
|||* l^ f
“HATTIE 1 IS IT YO’ HONEY?”
Hattie read the letter, with throbbing
heart and flushed cheeks. How often
the poor child had dreamed and hoped
for this very opportunity! To go to
school—to learn, and see, and know the
great world. And then—then But
“then” was too lar in the future to come
within the scope of her imagination, and
she took the letter, in great glee, to her
mother, not dreaming that Mrs. Halpine
would be one whit less pleased than she
herself was. The elder woman read
Mrs. Barnett’s note, and, after the fashion
of such weak creatures, wilted into the
chair and wept—not for joy, but for
reasons purely selfish, which’ Hattie
readily understood, for she crumpled the
letter in her little clenched hand and
threw it into the Are. Mrs. Halpine
protested, weakly, in spite of' her own
gladness, at first, but Hattie took up
the burdens of her starved, lonely life
aud went on as before.
* *****
After breakfast,which Orrin Halpine’s
ugly temper made more than usually un
pleasant, Hattie took a pail and walked
down to the spring, near the stage-road.
It was cool and quiet down there, and
at this time of day there was seldom any
one passing, so Hattie, worn out with a
night of wakefulness—for Orrin Halpine
had come home drunk, and she feared
for the consequences to her mother—sat
down by the spring to rest and think.
The long, dreafy, unhappy year that
had gone by—had it brought anything
to reward the sacrifice she had made?
Would not her mother’s life have been
really more endurable without her? For
she was the cause of much of the trouble
between Halpine and her mother.
And what good had her sacrifice done?
Where would it all end? Her mother
would miss her if she went away; but,
she asked, a little bitterly, “How long?”
These and other thoughts crowded in
to her mind, and a spirit of pure selfish,
ness, she had never before felt, entered
into them. Why should she, after all,
throw away everything the world held
for her for the sake of her weak, selfish
mother and those little Halpine’s? She
never thought of them as being anything
more to her than Orrin Halpine’s chil
dren. Had she not rights as well
as others? And—she had foolishly
thrown away the only chance her life
had held. No, there had been Sam
Hollis. What would he not have done
for berl But she had told him that she
could not care for him as he deserved,
and he went away—to Louisville, it was
said, but she did not know, for he sent
no word, though she heard he was doing
well.
If he would only come back! She
thought she would be kinder to him,and
they would be happy. Would they ? She
was not quite sutre, for she did not feel
certain that she could ever love him—
suppose they should marry, and Sam,
poor, sonsative, loving fellow, should
learn for certain that she did not care
for him as he did for her? He had not
believed it before. But Sam was gone,
and it was not likely that she would
ever see him again. Ever if he should
come back, and asked her to be his wife,
could she be wicked enough to accept
him? And poor Hattie bowed her ach
ing head on the cool stone aud sobbed
bitterly.
A tall young man, in “store clothes,”
came along the road, whistling softly.
He saw the dejected ligure by the spring,
and his heart leaped.
“Hattie! is it yo’, honey?"
“Sara! oh, Sam!” And then she was
in his arms, and his kind, honest voice
was whispering sweet, passionate words
in her ear. He had tried to stay away,
he said, but could uot. He had to come
back and see her once more; and—
“Hattie,darlin’,will yo’ come now? I
cyarn’t git ’long, nohow, ’thout yeh.
Yo’ mus’ come, honey. I shan’t go 'way
an’ leave yo’ hyar. I’m doin’ well, an’
yo' knows I luv yeh, an’ll be good t’
ych. Will yo’come, honey?”
The girl did not auswer at once. There
was a battle, aud a hard one going on in
that true little heart, and Hattie’s better
self was winning. Presently she choked
back the sobs and looked tearfully up
into the kind, brown eyes which gaze:l
at her so longingly—and her battle was
won.
“Sam! Sam? Ef yo’on’y knowed liow
hard it is fer me! But I cyam’t Sam.
It’d be too wicked—fer I hain’t changed
none. God kuows I wish't I c’u’d go
with yo’, Sam—but I like yeh too much
fer t’ make yeh mis'able all yo’ro life.
No, don’t—don’t say anythin’ mo’! | It
on’y makes me feel wusser, au’ kin do
no good. Go, an’ fergit it all, honey.
Good-by—good-by.”
The man understood, and did not
speak. He only pressed the tired form
closer, and kissed the—for once—unre
sisting lips again and again, turned sud
denly and was gone.
Hattie, with burning eyes, watched
the strong, manly form until it disap
peared around the sharp bend in the
road, just below. Then she took the
pail aud dragged herself back to the
thorns, and crosses, and misery of the
old life.— R. L. KeUhttm, in Argonaut.
Wonderful Farm Products.
Some of the most wonderful farm pro
ducts ever exhibited in this or any other
State have been on exhibition in the
windows of the Merchants’ Bank of this
city for several days,and will be shipped
to Melbourne and Sydney, Australia,
and Chicago.
These giant vegetables are grown near
Dungeness, and will show to the world
what the soil and climate of Western
Washington will produce. Among the
specimens were white star potatoes,
weighing from three pounds to four and
a half pounds each; late rose potatoes,
weighing fivo and three-quarter pounds
each; poor man’s friend potatoes, weigh
six and a quarter pounds each; white ele
phant potatoes, weighing from three to
four and a half pounds each; a turnip
weighing twenty-five pounds and a beet
weighing twenty-one pounds.
They were grown by John Alexander,
M. Alexander, Hail Davis and John
Dickenson on their farms in the northern
part of this county, near Dungenes3.
They were sent to the Merchants’ Bank
by William Church, manager of the Far
mers’ Mercantile Company. Some of
the specimens were sent by C. F. Seal,
to Chicago and Peoria, 111., and Dayton,
Ohio, to be put upon exhibition there.
The rest will be sent by Captain Barne
son to Melbourne and Sydney, Australia,
for exhibition, to show the people of
that distant island what America can
produce in the way of large vegetables.
The farms from which these potatoes
were taken yielded 600 bushels to the
acre. Only the larger potatoes will be
sent to market. The small ones are kept
at home and used for food for cattle and
hogs. What are called small potatoes
out here would be considered from aver
age size to large in the East. Here any
thing under a pound is considered
small.
On the same farms from which these
giants were brought were grown cab
bages weighing twenty-eight pounds
each, and rutabagas, parsnips and car
rots of such immense size that they will
cause the people of the East to wonder
when they see them,and will have a bet
ter effect upon homeseekers and will do
more toward attracting them to this
State than half a dozen real estate
agents, for they can show conclusively
wbat Washington can produce. —Jeffer
son ( Washington ) leader.
Proud of His Blauket.
Lord Lamington, who recently visited
the great Shan country north of Siam,
describes one of the wild hill tribesmen
who wore a red blanket on which ap
peared in gold-paper letters the word
“Superior.” The man was immensely
proud of this ornamental feature of bis
garment. He knew nothing of the mean
ing of the mark, but he was fully con

made the blanket very valuable. Chica

power of conservative methods, and is
conclusive proof that the great north
west is not afraid of the so-called
“Southern invasion.” The order in these
two States havo carefully considered the
matter, and, in spite of political trickery
and falsehood, Lave joined their fortunes
with the National Farmers’ Alliance and

ALLIANCE PROSPERITY.
A fact to be noted is a decided ten
dency of some papers that have been bit
terly opposing the alliance to get a little
closer to it now. This evidences that this
organization is being recognized as an
order of strength and that it is a fixed
and solid body that will hereafter be felt
and seen in national government and will
be no longer a cipher in the political,
commercial and financial world, but the
harvest is already ripening when the alli
ance will be a factor known and felt at the
gleanings from each of these fields and
will gather in sheaves that will warrant
the assumption, that the Farmers’ Alliance
is a power in the nation. It is like learen
hid in the three measures of meal that
will keep on till the whole is leavened.
A small beginning we have had, but we
are growing and increasing, and ere long
the much despised and long abused Al

jucticeand standing upon its chosen
platform, will proudly floats its banner
to the breeze with its legions of followers
fully enlistend under its broad protect

THE QUESTION SOLVED,
The recent conference of State presi
dents at Washington did not hesitate to
put themselves squarely on record as to
what should be done at the coming con
vention to be held in St. Louis February
22. The following resolution was passed
without a dissenting -vote:
Resolved, That it is the sentiment and
desire of this conference of the presidents
of the Farmers’ Alliance and Industrial
Union that the delegates for the Farmers’
Alliance and Industrial Union who attend
the industrial conference to be held in
St. Louis February 22, 1892, use their in
fluence and votes to establish asd perfect
fraternal relations with all the labor or
ganizations represented in said meeting,
with the Ocala demands as a basis for a
platform of principles,and that such plat
form be presented to the national con
ventions of the Democratic party, the Re
publican party, the People’s party this
year, with an earnest request that the
principles involved be engrafted into
their platforms for the coming national
elections of 1892. But that they care
fully refrain from committing our Order
as such to affiliation with any political
party or parties.
This is a fair, just, and practical solu
tion of the whole question.—Economist,

NEW ALLIANCE DEGREE.
Pursuant to instructions from the Su
preme Council at its last session, the ex
ecutive board have been preparing the
plans for a co-operative degree, and have
them so far completed as to be prepared
to announce the name, plan, object and
general scope of the work of this degree.
The instituting of this degree was a most
important step in the direction of
putting into practical operation one
of the grandest aims of the order, viz:
mutual assistonce in times of dis
tress, which, if generally adopted
by the membership, as it should be, can
not fail to prove a source of strength and
assistance in building up and perpetua
ting the Alliance. Briefly stated, the
degree is to be known as the “Alliance
Aid degree,” which may be instituted in
every sub-AUianco where seven or more
members wish to join. The object of the
degree is:
1. To provide on tho assessment plan
similar to that of the Masonic, Knights
of Honor, and other benevolent orders, a
fund out of which may be paid a sum not
exceeding $2,000 to the family of de
ceased members.
2. To establish permanent relief com
mittees to look after and care for the
sick and unfortunate of the Order.
3. To innaugurate a reliable bureau
of information and exchange, where
members can apply for employment or
employers can obtain competent help, and
assi-itance can be rendered in securing
reliable information regarding different
sections of the country by those contem
plating a change of location.
The national headquarters will bo at
Washington, and the work carried on
through the State Alliance officers os far
as possible. A charter has been granted
instituting the de/ft-ee by the officers of
tho National Farmers’ Alliance and In
dustrial Union, under and by virtue of
thdlr ow n charter from the United States,
which provides for a life insurance and
relief department.
