He distinguishes with his usual clearness between the different ranks of those employed in the production and exchange of goods, and intimates that his advice is not intended for the highest grade of traders, the merchants, whom he defines by what he calls the vulgar expression, as being "such as trade beyond sea."
A few passengers advised taking to sledges, others a postponement of the journey until the weather changed. Yuba Bill alone was for pressing forward as they were. "Two miles more and we're on the high grade, whar the wind is strong enough to blow you through the windy, and jist peart enough to pack away over them cliffs every inch of snow that falls.
My experience has shown me that they constitute the lowest grade and the least hopeful class of the submerged. Amongst them there are very few decent and helpable men and women who are capable of rising to a higher life.
"Yes, you are getting the best grade of everything we carry, Mr. Day. That lady at your house evidently knows what she wants." "Look here!" exclaimed Broxton Day, with some heat. "I haven't suddenly become a millionaire. I can't stand these prices. When she comes in here to buy, give her the grade of meat we have always had.
Mormon Joe added in obvious pride, "You're the best sheepman in the country, Katie, bar none." "Then I wish you'd listen to me and buy some of those Rambouillets and grade up our herd." "We're doing all right," he returned, indifferently. "Anybody would know you didn't like sheep." "They're a means to an end; they keep me in the hills out of mischief and furnish a living for us both."
"I like him very much," the Major said shortly; "he is great friends with Dr. Wade, who has the very highest opinion of him, and I believe he is generally considered to be one of the most rising young officers of his grade." "Oh, I have nothing to say against him," Captain Forster said; "but he was a poor creature at school, and I do not think that there was any love lost between us.
"No, we're not pardners exactly," he said, glancing good-humouredly at Dillon; "we've worked separate, but we're going home two by two like animals into the Ark. We've got this in common. We've both 'struck ile' haven't we, Dillon?" Dillon nodded. "Little Minóok's as rich a camp as Dawson, and the gold's of higher grade isn't it, Dillon?" "That's right."
There was the sound of jingling harness and the crunch of runners. The men bundled into fur coats. "Hillas, the draw right by the house here," Smith stopped and looked sharply at the plainsman, then went on with firm carelessness, "This draw ought to strike a low grade that would come out near the river level. Does Dan know Clark's address?" Hillas nodded.
Ken eyed it mistrustfully a slab of wood, crossed by a movable metal strip which was pierced with many small, square openings. "Also," said Ken, "the alphabet of the language." "American Uncontracted, or Revised, Grade One and a Half?" Phil asked airily. "They sound equally bad, but if there's any choice, give me the easiest. Sounds like geological survey stuff."
The road, winding down the hill, turns to the right at the foot of the steep grade, and leads away up the river; and between the road and the river, on the up-stream side of the house, was the garden.
