The purpose of the governors in

Governor Lynn J. Frazier of North

treachery in America. For his con.

ering in any loyal state, and following
a ringing denunciation of Governor
Eurnquist, whose sturdy Americanism
would not countenance a pro-German
meeting in Minnesota, Sylvester Vie
reck pays this tribute from The Faith

kota:
Fargo, North Dakota, seemed to
be the fated scene Of the great
gathering when it was decided to
retreat before the threats Of the
chief executive Of Minnesota. Gov

TEND AN INVITATION TO THE
MANAGERS OF THE cONvEN-
TIoN TO SUMMON THEIR DEL
EGATES TO MEET IN HIS
STATE, and he promised the full
protection Of the law.
It was following the disruption of
the pro-German peace council confer
ence by loyal Americans, members of
the home guard and the same soldier
boys whom he so hypocritically greet
ed last night, that Governor Frazier
sent Attorney General LANCER to Far

For q time the Ranger lounged side
wise in his saddle, studying the cOun-
try before him. Perhaps a half-mile
away a long, narrow patch of woods,
with the tops of occasional oaks
showing, ran parallel with the fence
for q considerable distance.
'They took them in yonder, to
Brand" he said Strengthening him
self. maybe We'll be in time"
Side by side the three men rode off
Guzman's land, following the tracks
to the nearest point of woods; there
Law stopped to give his directions.
"PedrO, you ride down this side;
Ricardo, you skirt the outside. I shall
keep to the middle. Walk your horses,
for shall go slowly" With a dubious
shake of the head Ricardo rode away,
while Dave guided Bessie Belle into
the grove.

CHAPTER VII.
A Ranuer's Horse.

Onward through the dense foliage
the two friends wound. Now and
then they stopped to listen, but the
rain was heavy enough to drown all
other noises. Encountering fresh
tracks finally, Dave leaned from his
saddle and studied them. He had
gone perhaps half mile when Bessie
Belle raised her head, and he noted
that her nostrils were working sensi-
lively. Law fancied that he could de-
tect the smell of a wood fire. Farther
along they came to a place where the
brush was low, and there, rising
through the treetops beyond, he saw a
Wavering plume of blue smoke.
The Ranger rode into sight of the
branding fire with his repeater
across his saddle horn and his thumb
upon the hammer; what followed
came with almost the binding sud-
denness of Il lightning crash. First
there was the picture of a sandy glade,
In the center of which burned fire

Juan insolently declared he didn't
know and didn't care.
"Oh, you don't, eh!" Law reached
for the boy, and shook him until he
yelled. "You will make nice little
prisoner, Juanito, and we shall find a
way to make you speak"
Gonzalez was inclined to resent such
high-handed treatment of his under
ling, but respect for the Rangers was
deep-rooted, and Juan's behavior was
inexplicable.
At last the horseboy confessed. He
had seen both horse and rider, but
knew neither. Mr.. Austin and the
stranger had arrived together, and the
latter had gone on. That was the
truth.
"Bueno!" Law released his prisoner,

If you're hungry, Benito will show you

walked away into the darkness, fol-
lowed by the shocked gaze Of his

Benito reused himself from his
amazement to say, warmly: ISL COM

Benito laid q hand upon his thigh
and apologized. "Senor Ed is a strange
man. He is often like this lately. You
understand me? Will you come to my
house for support"
"Thank you, but think I'll ride on
to Tad Lewis and see Urbina."
At this the Mexican shook his head
as ir apprehensive of the result, but he
said nothing more.
Law hesitated as he was about to
spur out of the yard. "By the way"
he ventured, you needn't mention this
to Mrs. Austin"
"She is not here" Gonzalez told him.
"She has gone to La Feria to see about
her affairs. She would not permit of

She is very fine lady,"

his shoulders nervously. He was aston.

the certainty that Austin was drunk
helped him to steady himself. Never
