their way home. The party crossed the road, and,
pushing open the door of the newspaper office,
Baldwin and his men rushed in and up the stair
which faced them. McMurdo and another
manned below. From the room above came a
shout, cry for help, and then the sound of tramp
ling feet and falling chairs. An instant later a
white-hared man rushed out on the landing.
He was seized before he could get farther, and
his spectacles came tinking down to McMurdo's
feet. There was thud and groan. He on
his face, and half dozen sticks were Gathering
together as they fell upon him. He writhed, and
his long, thin limbs quivered under the blows.
The others ceased at last; but Baldwin, his cruel
face set in an internal SMILE was hacking at the
mans head which he vainly endeavored to defend
with his arms. His white hair dabbed with
patches of blood Baldwin was still STOPPING over
his VICTIM putting in a short, vicious blow when
ever he could see part exposed when McN1urdo
dashed up the stair and pushed him back

Baldwin looked at him in anazement. Course
you!" he cried. "Who are you to nterfere-you
that are new to the lodge? Stand back" He
raised his stick; but McMurdo had whipped his
pistol out of his hip pocket
"Stand back YOURSELF" he cried "I'll blow
your face in if you lay hand on me. AS to the
lodge, wasn't it the order of the Bodymaster that
the man was not to be killed-and what are you
doing but killing hin?"
dts truth he says" remarked one of the men.
"By Gosh! you'd best hurry yourselves" cried
the man below. "The windows are all lighting
up, and you'll have the whole town here inside of
five minutes"
There was indeed the sound of shouting in the
street, and little group of compositors and
pressmen was forming in the hall below and
nerving itself to action. Leaving the limp and
motionless body of the editor at the head of the
stair, the criminals rushed down and made their
way swiftly along the street. Having reached the
Union House, some of them mixed with the crowd
in McGintys saloon, whispering across the bar to
the Boss that the job had been we'll carried
through. Others, and among them McNIurdo
broke away into side streets, and so by devious
paths to their own homes.
CHAPTER w. The Valley of Fear
W7HEN McMurdo awoke next morning he
had good reason to remember his initiation
into the lodge. His head ached with the effect
of the drink and his arm, where he had been
branded was hot and swollen. Having his own

McMurdo read the note twice with the ut

been in a feminine hand, he might have imagined
that it was the beginning of one of those adven-
lures which had been familiar enough in his past

eNorbitant freight rates. Until two
years ago no ship could be employed
in the coastwise trade unless il had
been constructed in an American ship
yard. This enabled the ship-buildlng
trust to feather its nest IN an amaz-
ing fashion. 4 San Francisco capi-
talist who wanted to put three new
ships in this trade was Informed by
the trust that the vessels would cost
100000 each. lie refused to be
held up and had the same ships built
in England for S265,00O each An
act of congress was required before
he could use them to carry cargoes
between American ports.
when the question of fixing the
Panama tolls was before congress the
coastwise shipping combine was pow
erful enough to slip q provision into
the law granting its vessels an eX-
emption which would mean yearly
saving of about one million, five
hundred thousand dollars. The up-
ponents OF the proposition pointed
out that 1t was n ship subsidy in dis
guise and that It was plain violation
OF our treaty obligations which pro-
yided that the ships of all nations
should be permitted to use the canal
or terms OF exact equality, but they
were outvoted.
President Wilson has asked con-
gress to repeal the exemption clause.
because he holds that the plighted
word OF the American people must be
made good with the nations OF the
world. and because It would be eco
nomic folly to continue to pamper the
greedy coastwise shipping interests.
In that position he would be sup
ported by congress and the American
people without regard to political at-
filiations.
