"Protest Against Treason"

This conference is the eliminating
protest of the party against the treasona-
BILE attempt to put it out of existence as
national party and to deliver its vote
to the republican party. The progressive
party cannot be delivered. The attempt
to do so has already recoiled upon its au-
thors. and covered them with discredit
and confusion.
"It is the sense of this conference that
the action Of the individual progressives
on the presidency should be left to their
individual judgment and conscience.
ANY effort to dictate the action of in
dividual progressives must of necessity
fail and this conference recognizes the
capacity and the resolve of every pro-
gressive to make up his own mind and
to determine his own course.
I'VE have considered carefully the ques-
ton of holding a new convention and
completing our national ticket. The diff
ficulties in the way of this course are at
this late date insuperable. The fact that
the party machinery in many states is In
the control OF servile committeeman who
were involved in the scheme to deliver
the party to the republicans. the further
fact that the campaign is already so
far advanced and that more time will be
required to assemble the party in conven-
ton all have combined to bring US to the
conclusion that a second convention OF the
party this year is impracticable.
The conference has authorized the
appointment of committee and has
confided to it the duty OF taking ap-
propriate measures, to preserve our
party's existence and to make vigorous
electoral contests This committee will
later announce national conference
of the party to be held at some con-
venient place after the election. At
this conference ways and means Will
be considered for the maintenance of
our party and the carrying forward of
it's great mission"

THIRD INSTALLMENT
CHAPTER III.

The death of Helen's father dis
closed at once the serious weakness
of his monetary affairs. He had de-
veloped his valuable railroad proper
ties without capital of his own ade-
quate to finance them. He was the
nominal head of great transportation
projects; he had been, in truth, the
brain and energy of these, but the ac-
tual control belonged to eastern bank
ers who had supplied the funds to put
them through. And with General
Holmes death his daughter was
brought face to face with this fact.
In the library of her home the attor-
neys for the estate were already gath
cred to discuss its affairs. Amos
Rhinelander, her fathers faithful
friend-indeed, the sole friend among
the generals many associates that now
manifested the slightest interest in
the fate of his unfortunate daughter
was present that morning. With him,
however, as If to offset the benefit of
his presence, was his already criminal
ly compromised nephew, Seagrue.
Helen, who had been summoned to
the library, walked down from her
room to join the little company.
To Seagrue, who, in apprehension,
had absented himself since the night
of the tragedy, she never had looked
so pleasing as she now did.
Much was in Seagrue's mind and
something of it all reflected itself in
his face. A score of times his un-
principled recklessness had led him
close to criminal lengths; now, it had
carried him from a simple suggestion
of theft, unscrupulously assented to, to
robbery and to murder-the murder of
General Holmes himself by Capelle's
hired tools. He was as yet too new
in his path of crime to feel Indifferent
to the fearful consequences.
Where he stood, unobserved by the
others, he took out of a wallet drawn
from his pocket a cuff cut from a shirt
and reread a scrawl written on it by
Spike, his convict accomplish, advis-
ing him that the stolen survey was
hidden under the south end of Little
San Pablo bridge.
With some trivial excuse for absent
ing himself, Seagrue left the house,
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1916-03-24
Arthur Gaylord, Superintendent C.

Arthur Gaylord, Superintendent c.
R. & T. r. R.:
Dear Gay: The bearer, Miss Helen
Holmes, wants work. Anything you
can do will be appreciated. R."
Though her resolution had been
taken, it seemed to require all of
Helen's courage to make the actual
start on the path she had chosen. She
reached the superintendent Office at
Beaman next day. after wandering all
I'VE the yards to find 1t, almost fright
ened out of her undertaking.
Gaylord, the superintendent, met
her with a consideration that dis
PEELED her fears. In a few words he
spoke feelingly of her father, and after
asking what she would like to try,
gave her a note to the agent at Sig
nal station, assigning her for cleri-
cal work due to the cutoff construc-
ton, already under way there.
George Storm, the freight engineer,
had not seen Helen since the funeral
of her father-which he had lain off
to attend-nor had he heard of her.
He was east-bound at Beaman one
morning, comparing orders with his
conductor, when he saw Helen in heI
severely plain black about to board
the local passenger train which was
to take her to Signal to begin work.
The engineer fastened to her. She
met his utter Observation-Disclosures she
had told him what she was doing and
why-without embarrassment or con
fusion, only laughing a little at his
concern.
But when, questioning her further,
Storm learned of the cutoff opera
tions, now begun-not alone by the
Tidewater people, but as well by their
rivals-the Colorado & Coast line
his suspicious were aroused and he
disclosed them to Helen without re.
serve. "That Colorado & Coast crowd
are running our people a hot
race on the cutoff construction.
They know something about that
original survey-they must-or they
would never start in SO far"
Helen smiled in~credulously. 81
think that could hardly be, Mr.. Storm.
You know the men building now
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1916-03-24

against our line were then fathers
own associates, and my friends"
Storm was stubborn in his atti-
tude. "They are supposed to be your
friends" he said skeptically.
"At all events, they have all offered
me every assistance since fathers
DEATH" declared Helen. They didn't
want me to do what 1 am going to
do. But" she Strengthened almost
im%perceptibly, Il would rather be de-
pendent on no one-at least, as long
as I a be-"
He looked unabashed into her frank
eyes; Il can't be sorry for that, any,
way" he said slowly. Everything
else that happened he hesitated
again, Il am sorry for. No, not every
thing, either!" His face lighted laz-
lily. Il am running the locals, now
85 and 86-and I'll have a chance, may
be, to see you every day"
The Coast & Colorado line back
ers showed all of their aggressive
ness in their new undertaking. Head
quarters for their cutoff work were
set up not a stones throw from Sig
nal station where Helen had gone to
work. Nor was energy the only mani
festation of their spirit. The keen
rivalry of the endeavor to reach the
Superstition range with a line first
extended even to the construction
crews, and as the work progressed
the foremen would hesitate at nothing
to delay or embarrass their opponents
In the race.
Spike, aided with a car by Seagrue
after he had broken Jail, had made
good his escape and was now some
thing of an incubus on Seagrue's hands.
The construction camp offered a tenn
porary outlet for his activities, and
though Spike and hard work had Q
e r been on worse terms of init
macy, Seagrue sent him freshly
dressed up to the Colorado line camp.
AS the feud between the two COM
panies grew, Seagrue conceived that
a tool, and especially one of Spikes
stamp, might prove of service to him
in the camp of the enemy. Get a
job with the Tidewater, and keep
me posted on every move" he said
