Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1914-06-26

a serious blow to Harding's ambitions.
When they disappeared they were
forced, necessarily, to relinquish their
grip upon the state.
Now the denomination was at hand.
and the governor, bereft of the assist
ance of his former sponsors, faced a
hostile public almost alone. IL, his
desperation he had announced his in
tention Of addressing great mass
meeting in the large square that the
new capitol faces, speaking from the
steps the day before the nomination,
in appeal for public support.
In spite of the detectives with whom
he surrounded himself, the governor
was totally unaware that Haynes had
been for two months in Cheynesboro.
Under an alias Haynes had flown in
the local aviation meet, whose course
was around the capitol dome. Haynes
came in third and won no prize-but
he had left his gyroscope at home!
Even in the swiftness of that aerial
journey he could perceive the rotten
ness of the structure, the badly laid
blocks of marble, the cracks that
spread from pediment to Intel and
from abacus to cornice; and it was
then that the plan came to him to util-
ize this scandal for Harding's down.
fall.
He did not wish his death, for he
had achieved vengeance many times
over. He wished rather to be quits
with this man, to pay off his score and
have done with the last item in those
plans which, once fixed idea of ven
geance, had grown, through accom-
plishment, to be but a debt and duty
There had been something Of dig
nifty in Harding's public life. The man
was no common trickster; literate, Gull
tured, he was in high standing with
the better elements in the community.
The men who had backed him had
been swindlers on the grand scale;
there was none of the chicanery of the
cheap politician about any of them.
Even now, when alone. many believed
Harding to be the victim of circum-
stances. And Haynes realized. that
only ridicule could upset the Harding
myth and that this would strike home
to the public imagination where mere
denuhciation failed.
He went to Paulding, the governors
most implacable adversary, and out
lined his plans. Paulding was uncon-
vinced.
s'How are we going to do it?" he
asked. How could any man do such
a thing?"
II only ask" said Haynes calmly,
that at eight in the morning on which
he is due to make his speech, you have
the reporters and photographers ready
in the square, in advantageous posi-
lions. Say as much or as little as you
like-but don't let Harding get wind OF
it."
sThen / shall say nothing at all. s
Paulding replied. MY dear man, sup
pose you could do such crazy thing,
what have you to get out of it?

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1914-06-26

Governor Harding was within few
months of the expiration of his term of
office, and within as many days Of
learning whether he would be renomi-
mated to succeed himself or no. And
Fortune, who had smiled unexpected
1y on him before, now seemed cold and
reluctant
Five years before Governor Harding,
then an unknown lawyer, had allied
himself with and placed his services
at the disposal of the Nokomis Land
company, a confederacy of mastery
thieves who had pounced upon the
rich territory to which a certain John
Haynes, an Englishman, had fallen
heir. When Haynes arrived in the
western state in which his property
was situated, he found the gang in con-
troll of it. He refused an offer of q
million dollars for what was worth
nearly twelve times that, and, torn
from his wife and daughter, he was
sent to the penitentiary for fourteen
years upon trumped-up charge. The
gang, loyal to one another, gave Hard
him the gubernatorial nomination.
With Haynes under duress, there
seemed no obstacle to the conspirators
enjoyment of the plundered property.
They controlled the state absolutely
and Harding, forced into power by
them, became notorious for the corrup-
ton and inefficiency of his administra-
ton. But, five years after the enter
prise of these men had been crowned
with success, alarming news came out
of the Nokomis Falls penitentiary.
Haynes, in the prison workshop, had
invented diabolical machine-a gyro-
scope, which, when attached to any We
hicle, would drive it upon a single
wheel at any rate of speed up to two
hundred miles an hour. 1t could be at
tached to the feet, to rolling chairs, BIZ
cycles, automobiles, aeroplanes even.
BY means of this mechanism, journey
ing about the country at an incredible
rate of speed, Haynes dealt out retri-
button upon the conspirators. HIS
blows fell with lightning-like rapidity
how here. now there; and, one by
one, the members of the Nokomis Land
company disappeared forever from the
sight of their fellows. Their fate, I'M
known to the survivors, became the
more terrible in their eyes. They fed
to other cities, to Europe, even-and
even there Haynes found them.
Harding he had left to the last,
knowing that the man dared not seek
safety in flight. He was fastened both
by ambition and by greed to the ex-
ecutive desk in Cheynesboro, the state
capital. During his Investigations
Haynes had discovered his daughter
and sent her to Chicago, to await his
call; his wife was still lost to him, but
ne had reason to believe that Harding
knew where she was to be found, and
he had resolved that, after he had com
pleted his vengeance upon the rest. he
would seek out and wrest the truth
tom him.
TIE fight of the consplrators proved

HE STRUGGLED TO FREE HIMSELF LOST HIS FOOTING AND FELL
BACKWARD INTO THE FELLOWS ARMS.

yate grudge," Haynes answered: and
thus he dismissed himself. Paulding
did not reveal the proposition; he
thought it too wild and impossible;
but he did drop hints to the editors of
the anti-Harding press.
Harding lived in a new suburb, fash
ionable and occupied, SO far as it had
been developed, by costly edifices. 1t
was some little way out Of Cheynes-
boro, and through 1t passed the uncom-
pleted trolley line which ran into the
desolate sandhills of the surrounding
country and was destined to link up
Cheynesboro with Benderville, fifteen
miles away. Haynes had studied the
governors habits carefully during the
period of his stay in Cheynesboro. He
learned, for one thing, that Hardings
guards, with whom he had surrounded
himself as a protection against the
fate he feared, left him when he board
ed the trolley car at the foot of the
capitol hill, or entered his automobile
though he used this latter convey
ance seldom, especially since he had
realized the need Of increasing his pop
ularity as man of the people. He
left the trolley at his street corner,
had his shoes polished by protege, a
little Greek boy who owned stand
there, and walked the block to his
house. where he was again under the
protection of detective, assigned to
him by the chief of police under the
guise of an assistant secretary.
Haynes must strike at him, then,
during his walk along that single block.
And he must act within two days, for
Harding's speech at the square would
seal his fate one way or another, and
almost certainly would bring him the
denomination he sought for.
It was just before dark upon the eve
ming before the event that Harding,
stepping jauntily and little pompous-
~ off the street car, approached the
shoe-stand, to discover new operator
in waiting with the brushes.
s.Who are your" asked Harding curt
", as the fellow came cringing up to
him rubbing his hands invitingly.

stony, he sold out to me and gone
home to Greece"
Donatello was certainly marvel at
shining shoes. He had finished one
foot and was beginning to work on the
other, when the governor heard a gem
tie, purring sound, apparently proceed
ing from the interior OF the stand on
which his foot was resting.
whats that?" he demanded.
"That's the electreesty." said Dona-
tello. "This is an electreck shoe-stand.
He no work properly. an SO polish
him myself"
We'll, get move on" growled
Harding, planting his foot firmly in the
form.
Haynes proceeded with extreme de-
liberation, however, for one thing was
essential to the fulflment Of his
scheme: He must wait until the street

beyond the governors residence. re-

DREW TRIBUTE FROM TWAIN
Great Humorist, Asked for His Con-
ceptIon Of Gentleman, Named
His Coachman.

Once, upon being asked to give his
conception OF gentleman, Mark
Twain, after a moments deep thought,
paid the following tribute to one who
after many years Of faithful service
had just died-the great humorist's
coachman, Patrick McAleer.
HE was never old-Patrick. He
came to us SO years ago. He was. my
coachman on the morning that drove
my young bride TO our new home. He
was a young Irishman, slender, tall,
1.-THE, honest, truthful, and he never
changed in all his life. He really was
with us but 25 years, for he did not
go with us to Europe, but he never re-
garded that as separation. As the
children grew up he was their guide.
He was all honor, honesty and affec-
ton. He was with us in New Hamp-
shire last summer, and his hair was
Just as black, his eyes were just as
blue, his form Just as straight and
his heart just as good as on the day
we first met. In all the long years
Patrick never made a mistake. He
never needed an order; he never re-
ceived a command. He knew. I have
been asked for my idea of an ideal
gentleman, and | give 1t to you-Pat

IDEAS FOR THE GENEROUS
Writer Gives His Views as TO How
to Do the Most Good In the
Best Directions.

The best charity cannot be organ
lied, cannot, indeed, be called charity,
in the usual sense of the word. Some
OF the men whose gifts in various pub
lie directions have been most munifi>
cent are in themselves not generous
men, and some whose gifts are never
heard of are the most generous men
in the world. To edo the most good
in the best directions one would need
to be much more than wealthy; one
would need to be wise, widely &C
quainted, ubiquitous and invisible
The rich man who will stand high
est in the worlds esteem will be he
who devises some way OF reaching,
by direct and quite unmechanized
ways, the lives, not counted among
the needy to whom special gifts for
benefits of III worth would bring to
themselves and others the greatest
blessings. We should like to have a
secret service for bringing good to
those who will never get It otherwise.
An unknown board with unknown
agents to distribute pianos to persons
who desire to play them rather than
to hear them played, college training
to those who will go to college to get
1t rather than everything but train
ing, and trips to Europe for school
teachers and ministers to whom and
through whom they will bring consid-
cradle heaven to earth, would be the
worlds first best charity.-Christia
