The thought maybe you'd come back aome day and be sure enough disappointed if it were gone." The younger man slipped from his saddle and went to look In at the open door of the old ranch house. Everything was precisely as he re membered it—the simple, old fashion ed furniture, the crossed quirt* over the high wooden mantel, his mother's rocking chair—that was the final touch. He sat down on the worn door log and put his face In hi* now the gaping chasm of the years was quite closed, and he was a boy again. Later In the day there were am bling gallops along the country roads, and the father explained how the transformation from cattle raising to agriculture and fruit growing had come about; how the great irrigation dam in Quaretaro canyon had pot a thousand square miles of the fertile mesa under cultivation; how with tbe inpourlng of the new population bad come new blood, new method*, good roads, tbe telephone, tbe rural mall route and other civilising agencies. Evan groaned. "1 know," he said. "I've lost my blrthland. If* a* ex tinct as the ' megalosaurian lizard* whose bones we used to find sticking in the gully banks on Table Mesa. By thg way,, that remind* me. Are there any of those giant foaaU* left? I was telling Professor Anners about them the other day, and he waa Immensely Interested." "We're all fossil*, we older folk* of the cattle raising times," laughed tbe man whom Richard Gantry had called the "super governor." "But then an some of the bone* left too, I gue**, and If the professor is a friend of yours we'll get him a state permit to dig all he wants to." "Yes, Professor Anners 1* a friend of mine," was tbe younger man'* half absent admission, "a* much of a friend as his daughter would ever al low blm to be." The qualifying clause waa not thrown away upon the senator. "What has the daughter got against you, son?" he asked mildly. "Nothing very *erious," laughed Pa tricia's lover. "But I think she' Is Jealous of any one who trie* to (bare her father with her. Next to her ca» reer"- "That'* Boston, Isn't It?" interrupted the ex-cattle king.

"America la supposed to be a free country with a repreaentatlve govern ment Do yon mean to say that you and a few of your friends can set aside the will of the people so far that yon can nominate and elect anybody you please to any office in the state?"

"What other banch V' "In thla case It's the corporations— the timber people, the Irrigation com panies and, most of all, the railroads." "Gantry seems to think that the rail roads are persecuted, or his railroad at least" The senator pulled his horse down to a still slower walk. "Where did you see Dick Gantry?" he demanded. Evan told of the meeting on the veranda of the club, adding the fur ther fact o/ the college friendship. "Mat happened so. did it," queried the senator, "that getting together last Saturday night?" "Why, yea; I suppose so. Dick knew I was In Boston, and he said he had meant to look me up." "I reckon he did," was the quiet comment; "yes, I reckon he did. And be filled you up chock fall of Hard wlck McVlckar's notions, of course. 1 guess that'a about what he was told to do. But we won't fall apart on that, aon. Tomorrow we'll go down to the city, and >on can look the ground over for youraelf. I want yon to draw your own conclusions and then coma nut tall ma what .you'd Ilk* to do. Shall we leave it that way?" Blount acquleaced, quite without prejudice to a Arm conviction that his opinion when formed was going to be Uud on the merits of the case, upon a fair and Judicial aummlng up of the pro* and cons. B* felt that It would be atrlking at the very root of the tree of good gov ernment to allow himself to be the candidate of the machine. But, on tb* other hand, be saw Instantly what a pewer a fearless public proaecutor could be in a misguided common wealth where ithe lack was not of good law*, but of men strong enough and conrageoua enough to admlnlater them. He would see. If the good to be ac complished was great enough to over balance the evil—lt waa a temptation to compromise, a sharp temptation, and he found himself longing for Pa tricia, for ber clear algbted comipent, which, he felt sure, would go straight to the heart of the tangle. It waa that thought of Patricia and his netd for ber that made him dla tralt and ab*entmlnd*d at th* War- trace Hall dinner table that evening, and the father, looking on, auapected that Evan's taciturnity waa an ex pression of bla prejudice against the woman who had taken bla mother's place, and when the son, pleading weariness, retreated early to Ills room the suspicion was confirmed. "You'll hare to be patient UilU) the boy. little woman," said the master of Wartrace when Evan had disappeared. "1 shouldn't wonder If Boaton had put some tight queer notion* into bis bead." The Uttle lady looked up from her embroidery frame with a whimsical •mile wreathing Itself at the corners of the sensitive mouth. "He la a dear .boy," she said, "and be la trying aw fully bard to bate me. But I shan't let blm, David." CIIAPTEU VI. OS THE WI!*0 Or OCCASIONS. FHOM the time It waa heralded In the mammotb New Year'a edition of the Plainsman as "tbe newest, tbe finest and the most luxurious hostelry west of tbe Missouri" the lnter-Uountaln hotel In the Sagebrush capital bad been the gathering place of tbe political clana. After the solid costliness of War trace Hall and tbe thirty mUe spin In a high powered roadster, which was only one of tbe three high priced motor carriages In tbe Wartrace garage, Evan Blount waa not surprised to find bis father registered In permanence for one of tbe private dining room salts at tbe Inter-Moantaln. It wa* very evident that tbe simple life which had been tbe rule of the Circle Bar ranch houaeboid had be come a thing of tbe past, and. though be charged tbe new and extravagant ocder of thing* to tbe ambition of hla talker's wife, be could not cavil at It, since he was hi— slf a sharer la its aeaiftMe ao&iessrfea. For the trst few days be was left almost wholly to hla own devices.

"The people with whom It cats the largest figure will never let you know anything about It. Just the same. It's catting a good bit of Ice. I have met fijtaco nxn. more or leee, wlthla the past day or eo who hare discovered that you are the brainiest thing that (Mr escaped from the law achdoL" •Totnmrrot!" derided BlounL "It'a a fact And they are inuyuesy lng sll sorts of a future for you." And again Gantry's smile waa broadly sly. "Like what?" scoffed the listener. "Well, for one thing, they are say ing that you are pretty snre to run for attorney general this fall It'a all over town. Everybody's talking about it—talking a lot and guessing a good deal more." Blount was balancing a spoon on the edge of his claret glass and frowning abstractedly. It was the first little discord In the Altai harmony—almost a breach of confidence. Without con sulting his wishes, without waiting for his decision, his father had commit ted him—"taken anap Judgment upon him," was tbs way be phrased It "Dick, will you believe ma if I say that I haven't authorised any such talk as thla you've been bearing?" hs asked. This time Gantry's smile was a grin. "The honorable senator took It out of *">•>•■ hanAa. rtll he? You'll under stand that I don't mean any disrespect when I say It's just like him. If hs has slated you, you are booked to run, and If he runs you you'll be elected. Those are two of the things that say themselves In the Sagebrush State." Blount was Indignant—"justly indig nant," be called it "If that to the case, Dick. It la high time that aome one should break the charm. I haven't said that I would accept the nomination, and I am not at all aure that I Bbnll say so. And If I don't say HO that aettlea It." Gantry was plainly shocked. "You don't mean to aay that you've got nerve enough to buck the old ra—your father, I moan! Why, great cata, Evan, you don't know what that stands for In the greasewood hllla!" "And I don't care, Dick. Up to this present moment 1 am a free moral agent. I haven't surrendered any right of declalon to any on* so far as I am aware." Gantry's eyes dropped to bla plate, and his rejoinder was not altogether free from guile. "Will you authorize me to contradict the talk as I can?" he asked quickly. Blount was still warm enough to bo peremptory. "Yes; you may contra dict It You may say that It la wholly unauthorized." . Then he rememliered the claims of frledHshlp. "I'll be frunk with you, Gantry. This thing has lieen mentioned to me once, but nothing was decided, absolutely nothing. 1 didn't even promise to take It under advise ment" Among those who knew him exter nally Mr. Ulchard Gantry bad the rep utation of owning a loose tongue. But none knew better than the real Bk-b --ard Gantry when to make the loose tongue wag away from the subject which has reached Its nicely adjusted climax. Almost before be knew It Evan Blount waa gossiping with his table companion over a social function two days old. A little later the waiter brought the clgara, and the danger point. If any ther* wore, waa safely past. It waa when tbe two young men were on their way to the club smok- Ing room that some one stopped Gan try to talk busluess with blm. Blount strolled on by himself and, finding the smoking room, went to loungo in a lazy chair, whose chief at traction waa that It stood half hidden In a little alcove lined with bookcases. Ue craved solitude and a chance to think things over fairly and without heat. A few minutes later Gantry looked In and, apparently mlaalng tbe half concealed easy chair and its occupant In tbe bookcase alcove, went bis way. He waa scarcely gone before two men entered, coming down tbe corri dor from tbe grill room. Blount saw tbeib, and be made aare that they saw blm. But whaa they bad taken chairs on tbe other aide of tbe room be was suddenly assured that they bad not seen him. They were talking quite freely of blm and of bis father. "Well, tbe Honorable Sagebruah has got McVlckar dead to rights tbls time," aald the elder of the two, a full faced man, to wbom Blount bad been Introduced on bla first day In the capi tal. bat whose name and station be could not recall. "This scheme of put ting bla aon up for attorney general la tbe foxleat thing tbe senator has ever pot across. You can bet tbe sir was blue in tbe Transcontinental Chicago offices when the newa got there." "What do you suppose McVlckar will do?" aaked tbe other. "He will do anything the senator wants blm to do. Blount Is land bun gry, and 1 guess he'll take a few more sections of tbe railroad mesa land un der tbe Clearwater ditch. That was what be did two years sgo, when Mc- Vlcksr wanted tbe right of way for tbe branch through Carnadine coun ty." "Don't you believe he's going to take any Uttle Chrtatmas gift tbls ttoe," waa the rasping reply. "He'll aell tbe railroad aometblng and take good hard money for HI It's a cinch. The railroad can't afford to have tbe coorts sgslust It, snd McVlckar will be made to sweat blood. You watch the wheels go round when McVlckar cornea oat here." Bran Mount found himself turning nUk «| heart Could It be bis father whom they were thus calmly accuslnc of craft and trickery aad blackmail ing methods? Ilia flm Impulse ni to face the two men. to demand proofs, to do and say what a loyal son should Bat the sickening conviction that they were dls?*sslng only Well assured and well known facta crushed him back Into bis chair, and after that he was apx lons for only one thin*—that they might finish their cigars aad go away without discovering him. Fat* was kind to Mm thus far. After a little farther talk, la which the ac cepted point of rlew of the onlooker waa made still more painfully evident, the younger of the two men spoke of an engagement, and they both went oat together. On* clear thought, and only oae, came to Evan out of the sorrowful confusion.

He said to himself In n fresh access of determination that, though tie might have to blush for hla father, Tatrlcla should not be made ashamed for her lover. Upon leaving the club he hesitated long enough on the steps (o remember that he was In ho fit frame of mlud to risk an Immediate meeting with his fa ther.
