CHAPTER II.

Left alone in the garden, the young
woman realized the cold for the hrst
time. She wore no wrap, and her head
in it's linen cap yet sparkled with a
diamond frost which, in her hasty run,
the trees and ivied trellis-work had
showered over her. She shivered and
turned to go. Fortunately progress to
the house was free, the soldiers having
gone above to witness the trial of the
newcomers.
She slipped around to the kitchen
and peered in.
Good morning, America, is the
coast clear?"
"Yaas, honey, but l spec dem po'
white trash in brass buttons III be
hyar soon messin' 'roun'."
where are the other servants?"
LA, chile, don ak me dat!" and the
black cooks face grew blacker with
anger. Dem on'ry niggahs won't help
none; dey jest loaf 'roun' de cabins
like scairt woodchucks! Oar amt de

sci OBJ EN-"
But you aren't afraid, American"
America brandfshed skillet threat
-eningly. "I'd like to see de sojer var
mints dat could scare dis yer niggar!"
and her head, it's woolly topknot pro-
truding from the gay turban, gave vici-
Gus mods of emphasis.
At last she said suddenly: do me
a favoryte, honey; go wild me to de
spring house, and hep me to fetch
some buttah and aigs. l mus fix some
OBJ dem new-fangled sandwiches. Dey
amt no'hin but hunks o. bread wild
meat-leavins in de middle, but missus
says it's a new style, an ! amt neber
benin de times in my cookin'-dat's
no lie!" . Nt
Together, peering cautiously about
for fear of molestation, they proceeded
to the spring house. Here they were
confronted by a trio of militiamen.
idling at the entrance. One reclined
upon a statue which, dragged from its
pedestal, stretched its broken length
across the walk. Rising, he made a
tipsy salute. "Egadl here come Beauty
and the BeaSt!'
At the sight Of the blear-eyed fell
lows, who made no effort to conceal
their admiration, the girl would have
fled; but America stood her ground.
Folding both long. skinny arms over
her hollow chest she glared sternly at
them.
EFF y'all amt de beatenes' white men
eber l come acrost!"
Mind your own businessl what are
you, anyway"
But America was not to be daunted.

she continued: AIN you had no rails
in? Dom you know a lady when 20
sees one?"

above the din. There was vision of
flying draperies, and in the midst Of
the crowd stood slight girl, her face
paA, her eyes wide with excitement.
STOPPING beneath the palisade of bay
onets, she raised her hands fearlessly.
"Do you call this fair play, lieutenant?"
There was short silence, then the
officer spoke:
Come away, Miss Creighton; this is
no place for ladies'"
But what is the matter?"
"These men were resisting arrest"
"By what right do you arrest them?"
by my authority as officer in charge,
we came here to bring to justice Mr..
Blennerhasset and his accomplices.
They fled last night; these men are
here evidently to join them. There is,
therefore, as much reason for arrest
ing them"
She interrupted with slight sheer
"You are quite right; there is quite
as much reason" Here she looked at
the leader of the strangers. Since her
appearance he had kept silent, cut
now stepped forward.
"Have I the honor to address q
friend OF Mr.. Blennerhasset?"
The slim girl, in her quaint cap and
morning frock, courtsied in the center
of this motley group of ruffian SOL
diery and dusty travellers.
"You have indeed, sir; and your
81. too, am his friend-Charles
Winslow, at your service"
The lieutenant interposed witt
angry sarcasm: "a truce, a pretty
trifiing! I must insist upon an ex
animation into the cause Of your pres
ence here. You are aware, better thar
l, what is your object in this attempt
to join Aaron Burr and Harmon Ben
nerhasset in their unlawful plans"
Then as the other was about tc
speak: Never mind your defense
now; we'll hear it later Burr ane
the owner of this estate-Harmor
Blennerhasset, are charged with Inc
project of establishing another coun
try and another flag, where now wave:
the stars and stripes. l arrest you
with completely in the same. II no
guilty, you will doubtless be willing
to prove it."
Anything that may bring this I'M
dignified scuffie to Close" was the
reply. Then Winslow turned to nl'
companions: Friends, for this lady's
sake, let us submit quietly"
The lady in question addressed thu
men. her voice a trife high and ua
steady: 81 am sorry, gentlemen, fol
this rude greeting, but"
Forward, march," interrupted the
officer. and struggling, struggling, al
in disorder, the crowd Of soldiers ant
civilians disappeared within doors
The man who had introduced himself
as Winslow was the last to go. Al
he passed the girl he said:
Twill you pre- sent my compliments
to Mrs. Blennerh asset, and arrange fol
an interview between us when this
this affair is over??" Before she could
reply, the lieute liant staggered III
with lnsolent command. WinsloW
shrugged his shoulders. Then te
her:
"Your servant, Miss Creighton, ant
-au revoir."
The girl courtesied again, as Inc
officer and his quandam prisoner Win
drew.

shone conspicuously. He had not yet
spoken, but his undaunted behavior and
calm air of superiority attracted the
officers attention.
This latter repeated the question in
solently.
who are you and what is your bust
ness here?"
The other advanced slowly and sur
yeyed him in silence. Then:
''For the first, sir, we are American
gentlemen; for the second-you are
right in speaking of it as our business"
Before the furious lieutenant could
reply a militiaman burst through the
crowd, exclaiming:
81 know who they are, lieutenant; it's
a gang O. the same sort as gave us the
slip last night. I'll warrant these cal
c'late to jfne the Others" ~
His superior officer smiled mock
ingly. ~
"Ah, see; then have the honor,
perhaps. to address the future emperor
of Mexico, or the president of our
southwestern republic? For such, l
understand, are the schemes which"
eff you understand anything" the
stranger interrupted, you must real
lie that your first duty is to clear the
place of this rabble."
To this the other retorted; MY
first duty is to arrest you an-which l
do-as' conspirators against the gov
eminent" n ..
Instantly. there was an uproar as the
soldiers took forcible possession of the
newcomers, with no show Of discipline.
The stranger who had been spokesman
raised his voice in protest, but it was
drowned in the general babel of re-
monstrance, mingled with the COM
mands of the officer and the drunken
shouts Of his men.
But another voice made itself heard
q woman's voice. High and clear it rose

EVERY man that casts his vote in the primary election of any party assumes a binding moral obligation to support the nomi- ness of that party whoever they may be. The first qualification of good democrat is to stand by the principle that the majority shall rule. Ifyou didn't get your man line up and go to work for the man that got the majority of the votes.
The Green Forest tribune., 1906-03-31

THE election is now over. If you did not get the man you wanted get in line and be ready to support the man that the majority of your fellow democrats said by their ballots should have the place. One of the distin- gushing principles of democracy is that the majority shall rule and when the majority of the party have spoken tits the duty of the minority to fall in line and go to work with the majority.
