Gates Of Brass.


1t was an hour beyond the normal
quitting time on the day of ultimatums
and counter-threatenings, the small Of
flee force had gone home, and the
night squad of deputies had come to
relieve the day guard. Griswold closed
the spare desk in the managers room
and twirled his chair to face Raymer

like, but dread it, Kenneth
Griswold's smile was a mere bar
ing of the teeth. THAT'S all right, Ned;
you do the dreading and I'll do the
fighting" he said; adding: What
we've had today has merely whetted
my appetite"
The man Of peace shook his head
dejectedly.
Il can't understand it," he protested.
up to last night I was calling you a
benevolent socialist, and my only fear
was that you might some time want
to reorganize things and turn the plant
into little section of Utopia. Now you
are out-heroding Herod on the other
side"
Griswold got up and crushed his soft
hat upon his head.
''Only fools and dead folk are denied
the privilege of changing their minds"
he returned. Lets go up to the Win
nebago and feed"
The dinner to which they sat down
little later was a small feast of ST.
lence. Though he had not betrayed it,
Griswold was fiercely impatient to get
away to Margery.
Twice, on his way to her after leav-
ing Raymer, he fancied he was fol-
lowed, and twice he stepped behind
the nearest shade-tree and frightened
his grip upon the thing in his right
hand pocket. But both times the rear
ward sidewalk showed itself empty.
Since false alarms may have, for the
moment, all the shock of the real, he
found that his hands were trembling
when he came to unlatch the Grierson
gate, and it made him vindictively
self-scornful. Also, it gave him a
momentary glimpse into another and
hitherto unmeasured depth in the val
ley of standings. In the passing OF
the glimpse he was made to realize
that it is the coward who kills; and
kills because he is a coward.

NARROWING Walls,

Griswold joined the conference with
Raymer and the shop bosses In the
Offices of the plant the following morn
ing. Having slept upon the quarrel.
Raymer was on the conciliatory hand,
and four of the five department FORE
men were with him. The prompt clos
ing Of the shops had had it's effect,
and a deputation Of the older work
men came to plead for arbitration and
a peaceful settlement Of the trouble;
But Griswold fought it and finally car
ried hig point. "No' compromise' was
the answer sent back to the locked
out workmen, and with it went the
