SYNOPSIS.

foolish young tsaderfoot becomes
fascinated with the bold. artful wife of a
drunken prospector In q western mining
town They prepare to elope In blind
maudlin husband. He Is shot by the
wife. but the chivalrous boy pins q
note to the. body taking. the crime
railroad station the woman's horse
falls exhausted; the youth puts her
on his own and follows hanging to the
stirrup strap. Seeing he is an impedi-
ment. the woman thrusts her escort into
q snow drift and rides on. Half-frozen
he stumbles into the railroad station Just
as the train bears the woman away.
Gormly. is a multi millionaire in New
York. He meets Eleanor Haldane. O
beautiful and wealthy settlement worker.
and co-operates with her. in her work.
Gormly becomes owner Of a steamship
line and finds himself frustrated in pier
and track extension plans by grating al
dermen. backed by the Gotham Traction
Company. An automobile accident brings
the Haldanes to his country home. CORN
~ announces that he will be mayor of
New York and redeem the city from cor
ruption. Mr.. Haldane in a long desired
Interview with Gormly. makes an indirect
proposition to compromise the fight which
the latter has been waging in the news
papers against the Gotham Traction COM
pany. and which Haldane is suspected of
being the head. Gormly boldly announces
his plan OF campaign to Haldane. Gormly
rides to Haldanes place, carrying word
OF the auto accident. The next morning
he refers to the ride of the night before
as mild compared to one he experienced
In his boyhood days. The papers an
nounce his candidacy for mayor. The po-
ltical declaration OF the merchant prince
produced tremendous sensation. The
minority party. seeing In him a possible
Moses. make overtures looking to the In
dorsement OF his candidacy by the "outs. II"
Gormly, however, rejects all proposed
alliance. Meeting of the Sachem So
ciety or the Ring" is held at the Hal
dane Home. Many political dignitaries
and henchmen are present and ways and
mayoraity aspirations and sidetrack his
candidacy. The younger Haldane Is pro-
posed as an opposition candidate and the
whole machinery OF the city's detective
force is to be invoked to dig up some
thing damaging to Gormly Haldane,
Jr., refuses the nomination and an
nounces that he will support Gormly.

of the outs created q great sensation.
1t was an evidence. which by and by
even the stupid could apprehend, that
Gormly literally meant what he said
when he declared that he was to be
an absolutely Independent candidate,
tied to no faction, bound by no party,
entirely free and unfettered.
The men who rallied to his support.
while as innocent as babes In the prac-
teal politics affected by Liffey and
Benson. were nevertheless men of
Astounding zeal. keen intelligence, and
high quality. Nor were the workers
that gathered round the new leader
entirely from the social set and circle
of the Haldanes. Gormly In one way
or another employed q vast number
Of working men. His relations with
them had always been not merely
square" as they phrased It. but kind
and generous. They were organized
and started at work Immediately in
every direction. Before the enemy
realized II. ample time had been Sc
cured In every possible assembly
room and there we're nightly meetings
all over the city.
In the Gormly store itself was a
great auditogium In which free con-
certs, lectures. and entertainments
had been given for the employees and
patrons of the store. This auditorium
had outside entrances and could be
completely cut OF from the other
business. Every afternoon he assem-
bled In the auditorium the workers
and speakers. and every afternoon
there was the freest possible discus
sion OF the issues. of what was to be
said in the speeches Of the night. OF
the places to be covered. The man
showed a genius for leadership and
direction that was amazing. He de-
veloped a power OF succinctly pre-
senting the facts. which In large
measure he was able to communicate
to his followers.
Livingstone Haldane's example had
been followed by not a few young men
OF fortune and position 1t became in
a certain sense among certain set
the fashion to campaign for Gormly.

STORM RACED FOR TWO DAYS
Saturday Night a Bad One and
Sunday Morning Saw
Below Zero Weather

Wintry blasts swept down upon
Redwood Saturday with almost UNI
precedented violence for this time
of year.
Early Saturday snow began to
fall, and swept along by the wind
soon wrapped the town in a fair
sample of a November blizzard.
Fury of the Wind Increased
The fury Of the wind seemed to
increase with the closing in of night
and it ragged with undated zeal
nearly all of Saturday night. And
all the time the mercury was slowly
falling in the little glass tube.
Stood 1 Below Zero Sunday Morn-
ing.
At one o'clock Saturday after
noon it was IA above but at s o'clock
it was only 5 above. BY Sunday
morning the lowest point was
reached, / below zero. From there
on the mercury rose.
Upward Sweep Yesterday
Sunday there was considerable
wind but not nearly so strong as on
Saturday and the. snow had ceased
falling, so the atmosphere was
clear.
BY Monday morning the wind had
changed to the southeast and the
temperature had risen considerably.
There were indications of snow early
in the morning but the sky sooned
cleared and Monday was a delight
full day.
Much Worse In The West
Word from the west indicates
that the storm was much more VIC
lent there than here. A foot Of
snow fell at Seattle, Alberta i
buried under three or four feet Of
snow and grain in the field must re
main there until next spring, Mon
tana is covered with snow and NORTH
Dakota suffered severely during The
Saturday and Sunday storm.
