their awe whlie II had increased their
admiration OF HIM. They were already
willing to abandon their belief Ill his
divinity. AMI were beginning 10 realize
that instead OF being from another
world he was man like themselves.
The events which now occurred aided
Chaipas plans and strengthened his po-
sition as a candidate for the governor
ship. Both lklapel and kulcan We're
aware OF n growing feeling among the
priests III favor OF Chalpas candidacy,
but they did not believe that he could
gain adherents enough to affect the re-
suit OF the election, which was to occur
in the early spring, week before the
feast of the katun. Eric and lklapel had
determined to divest this feast of its
horrible, sacrificial, murderous char
acter. and tine old priests powers were
all bent III this direction while he left
the electioneering to Kdlcan.
All Of the younger priests could be
counted upon to favor his advanced
views, but only few of the elder could
be expected to depart from time hon
ored and powerfully potent religious
cnstom- While only few of item had
witnessed the last katun feast. hfty-two
years before, yet the barbaric rite had
many firm adherents. The subject had
been approached at great tribal meetings
in the circular estufas, but 1t had been
handled so carefully that even Iklapel
could form no opinion of the strength Of
the new movement.
The blast furnaces had proved sue
cessfui; men were even now grinding
the new axes to an edge with intense
eagerness and satisfaction. and every
one OF Eric's castings had turned ont
perfect, much to his delight. 1t was
midwinter before they were finished,
and his assistants had worked indoors
and converted one part OF the great tene-
ment into huge factory. where the
crash OK hammers upon anvils filled the
air with a cheerful din. and the great,
dim room, with Its cobwebbed rafters
black with the smoke OF ages was peo-
pied with grimy figures hurrying here
and there In the glare OF the FORCES. In
quisitive, curious Atzians crowded about
the doors, wrapped In their blankets and
furs' and cheered their fellow citizens,
VINO worked not for wages but for the
dement, OF their kind' under the tutelage
OF the strange Visitant from the skies.
Great things were prophesied for Atzlan
IN the coming spring by the gossips OF
the city.
