The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1913-08-02

Burns is in there with Benson now;
so is Salton, and old man Glenn, and
the rest of the bunco family. They're
framing 1t up. When saw old Glenn
go in, with his white side-whiskers, l
knew the widow and the orphan were
in danger again, and that he was going
bravely to the front for 'em. Say,
that young Banks is comm, isn't he?
That's a peach, that cartoon OF his to-
night"
Kittrell went on down the hall to
the art room to wait until Benson
should be free. But it was not long
until he was sent for, and as he en-
tered the managing editors room he
was instantly sensible of the somber
atmosphere OF grave and solemn
council of war. Benson introduced him
to Glenn, the banker, to Salton, the
party boss, and to Burns, the presi-
dent of the street car company; and
as Kittrell sat down he looked about
him, and could scarcely repress a
smile as he recalled Manning's esti-
mate of Glenn. The old man sat
there, as solemn and unctuous as ever
red Of face, was more plainly per-
turbed, but Salton was as reserved, as
immobile, as inscrutable as ever, his
narrow, pointed face, with its vulpine
expression, being perhaps paler than
usual. Benson had on his desk be-
fore him the cartoon Kittrell had fin
ished that day.
"Mr. Kittrell," Benson began, we've
been talking over the political situa-
ton, and was showing these gentle
men this cartoon. It isn't, fear, in
your best style; 1t lacks the force, the
argument, we'd like just at this time.
That isn't the Telegraph Clayton, Mr..
Kittrell." He pointed with the amber
stem of his pipe. mot at all. Clayton

gerous man! We've reached crisis
in this campaign; II we can't turn
things in the next three days. we're
lost, that's all; We might as well face
It., Tomorrow We make an important
revelation concerning the character OF
Clayton, and we want to follow II up
the morning after by cartoon that
will be sumner. clincher. We have
discussed II here among ourselves,
and this is our idea"
Benson drew a crude. bald outline,
indicating the cartoon they wished
Kittrell to draw. The IDEA was so
coarse. SO brutal, SO revolving, that
Kittrell stood aghast. and, as he stood,
he was aware Of Salton's little eyes
fixed on him. Benson waited; they all

that Is. might keep them from being
as bad as they might"
But that wouldn't be dealing fairly
with your new employers, Neil" the
mayor said.
Kittrell was making more and more
mess of this whole miserable busi-
ness, and he was basely glad when
they reached the corner.
well, good-by, my boy" said the
mayor. as they parted Remember
me to the little woman"
When he turned In his cartoon,
Benson scanned 1t moment, cooked
his head this side and that, pulled
his brier pipe, and finally said:
I'm afraid this is hardly up to you.
This figure of Clayton. here-it hasn't
got the stuff in 1t. You want to show
him as he is. We want the people to
know what four-flushing, hypnotical,
demagogical blatherskite he is-with
all his rot about the people and their
damned rights!"
Benson was all unconscious Of the
Inconsistency Of having concern for
people he SO despised, and Kittrell
did not observe It, either He was on
the point Of defending Clayton, but he
restrained himself and listened to Ben.
sons suggestions. He remained at the
office for two hours, trying to change
the cartoon to Benson's satisfaction
with a growing hatred of the work and
disgust with himself that now and
then almost drove him to mad destruc
ton
We'll, it'll have to do" said Ben
son, as he looked it over; but let's
have little more to the next one
Damn it! I wish could draw. Ii
cartoon the crook!"
In default of which ability, Benson
set himself to write one OF those saw
age editorials in which he poured ou
on Clayton that venom OF which h
seemed to have such an inexhaustibl'
supply.
But on one point Benson was right
Kittrell was not up to himself. Al

swept with the excitement OF it, will

before election. The campaign waxed
more and more bitter. and as the
forces opposed to him foresaw defeat,
they became ugly in spirit, and desper-
ate.
One morning at breakfast, as Edith
read the Telegraph, Kitrell saw the
tears well slowly in her brown eyes.
oh" she said. 1T is shameful"
She clenched her little fists. "oh, II
l were only a man I'd" She could
not in her impotent feminine rage say
what she would do; she could only
grind her teeth. Kittrell bent his
head over his plate; his coffee choked
him.
Dearest" she said presently. in an
other tone, tell me, how is he? DO

mo, never see him. But he'll win;

That afternoon, In the car. he heard
no talk but of the. election; and down
town, in cigar store where he
stopped for cigarettes, he heard some
men talking mysteriously, In the hol-
low voice OF rumor, OF some sensation,
some scandal. It alarmed him, and as
he went into the office he met Man
ming, the Telegraph's political man.
Tell me. Manning" Kittrell said
how does 1t look?"
\"Damn bad for u.s.
For us?"
well, for our mob OF burglars and
second-story workers here-the gang
we represent" He took a cigarette
from the box Kittrell was opening.
"And will he VIM"
"Will he VIM" said Manning, ex
haling the words on the thin leve
stream of smoke that came from his
lungs. "Will he win? In a walk,
tell you. He's got 'em beat to a stand

meetings at MONDAY and at night, Of
fice-seekers flying about in automo-
biles, walls covered with pictures OF
candidates, hand-bills scattered in the
streets to swirl in the wild March
winds, and men quarreling over
whether Clayton lor Ellsworth should
be mayor, Kittrell had to draw po-
litical cartoon each day; and as he
struggled with his work, less and less
the old joy came to cheer and spur
him on. To read the ,ridicule, the
abuse, which the Telegraph heaped
on Clayton, the distortion OF facts con-
corning his candidature, the unfair
reports of his meetings, sickened him.
and more than all, he was filled with
disgust as he tried to match in carica-
ture these libels of the man he so
loved and nonored. 1t was bad enough
to have to fiatter Clayton's opponent,
to picture him as a noble, disinterest-
ed character, ready to sacrifice him
self for the public veal. Into his pic
lures of this man. attired in the long
black coat of conventional respectable
ity, with the SNUG face OF pharisaism,
he could get nothing but cant and n.y.
pocrisy; but in his caricatures OF
Clayton there was that which panied
him, worse-disloyalty untruth, and
now. and then, to the discerning few
who knew the tragedy of kttrell's
soul, there was pity. And thus his
work declined in value; lacking all sim
certify, all faith In itself or its purpose,
1t became false, uncertain, full OF jar
ring notes, and, in short, never once
rang true. AS for Edith, she never
discussed his work now; she spoke OF
the campaign little, and yet he knew
she was deeply concerned, and she
grew hot with resentment at the
methods of the Telegraph Her only
consolation was derived from the
Post, which, of course, supported
Clayton; and the final drop OF bitter
ness in Kittrelrs cup Of woe came one
evening when he realized that she was
following with sympathetic interest
the cartoons in that paper.
For the Post had new cartoonist,
Banks, a boy whom. Hardy had picked
up somewhere and was training to
the work 'Kittrell had laid down. To
Kittreil there was cruel fascination
In the progress Banks was making;
he watched It with a critical, profess
sional eye, at first with amusement
then with surprise, and now at last, In
the discovery OF Edith's interest, with
q keen jealousy OF which he wal
ashamed.
Meanwhile Clayton was gaining
ground. II was less than two weeks
