/. SEATTLE, Dec. 5.-Under the
heading "An Army Post for the
Northwest" The Star today says
editoriaIly:
Ranking in Importance with
the tourist rate victory is the an
nouncement of the establishment
of an army post for the north
west, to be located on the vast
prairie stretch between Tacoma
and Olympia.
THE government has agreed to
establish an army post, providing
Pierce county will donate the nee
essary 10000 acres of land.
There isn't a doubt that Ia
coma and Pierce county will meet
the requirements.
There is nowhere in the north
west land SO suitable for army
purposes as is this prairie land.
$50 far as The Star can see,
there is no pork or pull in
volved in this project.

After breakfast Yeager rode out

suffered greatly from shock. On

may prove serious. He was first
removed to his home, 1907 Sixth

The heavy jaw of the prize

"Oh! That's 1t. eh?"
Was there the fainest filter of

''But II rustlers took them"
The big man laughed unpleas-
antly.

Yeager smiled, saying nothing.

Steve looked her straight in the
eyes. "Harrison's a crook. He's
been using your love for Phil as
"a lever"
Swift anger leaped to her face.
"How dare you say that!"
His blue eyes met her dark,
stormy ones quietly and steadily.
I'm telling you the truth. Can't
you see he's been leading Phil in
to deviltry? Course you'll hate

It was that afternoon that Billy
Threewit fired Harrison. The
heavy had been jealous of Steve's
success as an actor and had en-
tered more than one protest to the
director against the latter's giving
the extra such good parts.
Today he became so insolent
THAT Threewit dismissed him. Har-
rison did not leave before he had
made dire threats against the COM
pany collectively and individually,
but at last he mounted his horse
and galloped off.
Just before sunset Steve also
might have been seen riding away.
Four Bits was headed south. 1t
was little after dawn when he
reached Noche Buena, the village
where Gonzales had his head
quarters.
The American inquired where
Ithe general might be found, and
was directed to two-story house
near the center of the town.
Two sentries were on guard
outside. One of these went inside
with the message of Yeager.
Presently the soldier returned, re-
lieved the American of his revolt

eral would see him.
Gonzales was at breakfast with
lieutenant, q slender young man
who sat with his back to the
door. From the first moment
when his eyes fell upon that 1.-the,
graceful figure the American
knew that presently he would be
