. HIGH JUDGES

Less than half of the voters in
Spokane county marked the cand!-
dates for supreme judges, the first
names on the regulaS ballot. AS
there was no opposition, the voters
must have taken it for granted that
the supreme judges were elected
whether marked or not.
Stephen j. Chadwick led his col
leagues. Judges Crow and Root, in
the vote cast for the supreme
judges.
Judge Chadwick politically Is a
democrat; while the other two
judges are republicans, but this
had no bearing on the vote, it is
thought, as the supreme judges
were nominated and elected on a
nonpartisan basis. Judge Crow is
Spokane man.

CHAPTER x.

Sitting tnat morning in my little
library at the Covington road cot
tage, Ashton's observation, that |
was likely to prove poor detec-
tive, by the law of contrariety, II
ever put 10 the test, seemed now
almost prophetic.
For more than a fortnight l had
watched drama in which, by the
merest chance. my own life might
be at stake. An innocent man was
languishing in prison for a murder
he did not commit. The only close
friend that | had ever boosted,
whose confidence | thought l en-
joyed, had forsaken friendship for
this little stage. and the part he
played was most inexplicab.e of
all; another man, whom | never
dreamed could be the least inter.
ested in me, was suddenly conniv-
ing to get me into his clutches.
There were half dozen reasons,
equally strong. why | should not
have been content with the mere
watching of the man | suspected of
the Dunsmeir murder, and perhaps
suspected unjustly. With the pass
ing of time had acquired abso-
luteiy nothing to work on except
this tiny bundle of suspicious.
Ashton was the only one who
might have helped me, but he had
voluntarily taken himself outside
the pale of possibilities, SO far as
that was concerned.
The man who was now going
through the punishment that be-
longed to another, believed me the
murderer. And yet would not my
presence before him be suffic ent
proof to any fair minded man that
| was innocent? Could aman who
had suffered for Ave years for an
others crime be expected to have
an unprejudiced mind?
1t was terrible risk to walk in
on such a man with the very prison
walls about you! But 1t was a
risk made up my mind to take.
| determined to see Jack Blu
chanan at the prison where for five
years he had been incarcerated.
The next hour found me on my
way to the prison.
| did not underrate the danger
into which was now going. There
is always the chance that the
halter will tighten when we are
foolhardy enough to stick our
heads through it, and that chance
was now taking.
| found that | could see Blu.
chanan only at the non hour, and
then for just 10 minutes.
When | entered his narrow little
room he faced about with the same
alertness and with the same spirit.
albeit a trifle more suppressed
than had characterized his appear
ance while -o'-lantering about
the trysting places of the Duns-
meir grounds with his sweetheart.
He reached his hand toward me
in as cordial greeting as a
stranger could expect, and then
dropped it suddenly. His eyes wild
ened and he drew back, with a
quick. involuntary look toward the
guard. l knew then that he recog.
nized me.
/ grasped his hand in spite of
him, and shaking it with a firm
grip. | said in an undertone impos.
sible to be heard by the guard:
Keep cool. All depends on it.
Don't jeopardize your only
chance"

back home, She met no one on her

library and slipped in into an
empty case"

That was hardly possible. | was

We heard the guard snap his
watch in the corridor, and arose
to go.
"The other person." I asked.

he answered.
"You have seen him then since
the murder?"
Yes; once"

until they turned to go through main

gave them and the little daughter
