wanted to borrow the wagon myself,
and Dick told me he had already lent
1t to Smith."
"We're needing him." said the colonel
shortly, and then he told Starbuck OF
the newest development In the paper
railroad scheme Of obstruction.
From that the talk drifted to dis
cussion Of Kinzie's latest attitude. BY
this time there had been an alarming
number of stock sales by small hold
ers, all Of them handled by the Brew
ster City National. and it was, plainly
evident that Kinzie had finally gone
over to the enemy and was buying-as
cheaply as possible-for some unnamed
customer.
IF they keep It up, they can wear
us out by Titles, and we'll break our
necks finishing the dam and saving
the franchise only to turn 1t over TO
them In the roundup" said the colonel
dejectedly. i've talked until I'm
hoarse, but you can't talk marrow into
an empty bone, Billy. I used to think
we had fairly good bunch OF men IN
with us, but in these last few days
I've been changing my mind at fox
trot."
The remainder of the day, up to the
time when the offices were closing and
the colonel was making ready to go
home, passed without incident. In
Smiths continued absence Starbuck
had offered to go to the dam to stand
night watch with Williams against
possible surprise by the right-of-way
claimants; and Stillings, who had been
petitioning for an injunction, came up
to report progress just as Baldwin was
locking his desk.
"The Judge has taken It under adj
visement, but that Is as far as he
would 20 today" said the lawyer. Its
simply bold steal, Of course. I'm
sworn to uphold the law. and can't
counsel armed resistance. Just the
same, hope Williams has his nerve
with him."
"He has; and I haven't lost mine
yet" snapped voice at the door; and
Smith came in, dust-covered and swar-
thy with the CRIME of the wind.swept
grasslands. Out of the pocket Of his
driving coat he drew thick packet of
papers and slapped it upon the drawn
down curtain Of Baldwin's desk.
There you are" he went on gratingly
"Now you can tell Mr.. David Kinzie

into It, the mere somebody's going to

John what have you done?' de-
manded Baldwin.
"Tve shown 'em what it means to

triumphant, half-savage exultation. Il
have put crimp in that fence-climb-
ing banker of yours that will last him
for one while! I've secured thirty-day
options, at par, on enough High Line
stock to swing clear majority If
Kinzie should buy up every other share

all day, and I've driven a thousand
miles, but the thing is DONE"
"But, John! If anything should
