 '.Take it or leave it." retorted Bud ] The Mississippian leaned with his hands on the desk.
 Well, Haines, If you're like the rest and are really interested in Alta. coola. don't know that you'd have to go very far to talk"
 "You know something of Altacoola lands. then, Norton?" said Robert, tingling with suppressed excitement. He felt that he was getting close to real. facts in colossal deal" Norton was sure of his man now. "Well, am in touch with some peo- pie who've got lands and options on more. might fix it for you to come in," he whispered. Halnes shook bis head. "You know l haven't much money, Norton. All could put in would be my influence. Who are these people? Are they cheap little local folks or are they real people here who have some power and can do something that is worth while?"
 "Do look like I'd fool with cheap skates. Haines? They're the real peo- pie I think. Haines. that either Sen ator Stevens or Senator Peabody would advise you that you are safe."
 "Ah! Then Stevens and Peabody are the ones. They'll make it Alta coola, then sell to the government at big advance and move to Easy street."
 That's right" agreed Norton.
 Bud Haines strengthened abruptly. The expression on his face gave Nor ton a sudden chill-made him tremble.
 "Now I've got you,' cried the secre- tary. You've given yourself dead away. I've known all along you're a d--d thief. Norton, and you've just proved 1t to me yourself"
 "What do you mean?" Norton was cllnching his fist. Words like that mean fight to southernerr'

 "So that was your dirty trick" ex. claimed the congressman as he re- gained his composure.
 ''Set make believe thief to catch real one" laughed the secretary. "very good trick. think"
 "I'll make you pay for thatv' cried Norton, shaking his fist.
 "All right. Send in your bill any old time," laughed Haines. "The sooner the better. Meantime I'm going to talk to Langdon."
 He had started for the door when Carolina Langdon re-entered. followed by her brother Randolph.
 'Wait a minute," said Norton, with unexpected quietness. 'I wouldn't do what you're about to do, MT. Haines."
 "Of course you wouldn't" sneered Haines.

He realized, further, that now was the time to put Haines out of the way-if that were possible. "A mis- take, Mir.

It will only em. barrass him and do no good. because Langdon's money is in this scheme, too, and Langdon's in the same boat with the rest of us."
 Haines stopped short at this astogrd- Ing charge against bis chief.
 Morton, you lie! I'll believe 1t of Langdon when he tells me so; not osh- erwise."
 Norton turned to Randolph.
 Perhaps you'll believe Mir. Lang don's son, Mir. Haines?'
 Randolph Langdon stepped forward.

 Haines looked him up and down, with sheer.
 Your money may be- he said. 'T don't think you're bit too good for 1t. but your father is different kind"
 Carolina Langdon stood at the back of the room, nervously awaiting the moment when. she knew, she would be forced into the unpleasant discus sion.
 T reckon you can't refuse to believe Miss Langdon," drawled Norton, with aggravated deliberation.
 "Of course" stammered Haines, 'Id believe 1t if Miss Langdon says it's so."
