But while Mr.. Archer was reading
the sign on the factory, and rather
pesstmistically, it must be confessed.
tens of thousands of people all over the
city were being startled by the full-page
advertisements in the newspapers. These
advertisements, after reciting in general
terms the incidents leading up to the
present situation. pointed to the long
and enviable standing of the Archer Tool
Works in the city's business history, and
made frank and forcible appeal to the
people to come forward and underwrite
its credit. 'in this time of crisis when
the black powers of political corruption.
reaching upward to the very heart of
the city's financial strength, have
threatened to punish us by the eXtinc-
ton of our business"
Sound as any bank" was one of
the phrases in the appeal for the loan.
and il concluded with a statement OF
the condition of the buSnes, certified
and sworn to by well-known firm OF
public accountants that statement
which had been prepared week before
in anticipation of the new paper which
Mr.. Archer was preparing to float Ihe
advertisement also gave for the nrst
time in the public prints a brief MS
tory of the Real Republican movement,
it's beginning, its purpose. its progress.
In such glowing terms was this done
that Jerry's ward and committee or
ganization seemed to march across the
page like a magnificent army panoplied
and equipped for battle.
Last of all was personal card from
Jerry. He wrote:

whistle had blown that the first straw
came in the form of huge Italian in
overalls whom Jerry recognized as one
of his lathe men. Bashfully the man
produced a greasy and sweat-sta ined
wallet, from which he dug out a thick
layer of bills, and laid them down on
the desk.
"Tree hundra doll! I Ienda you dat.
Mista Arch.' he said proudly, with q
garlic breath.
Three hundred dollars" Jerry leaped
up with a bound.
Tony" he exclaimed. you're a
brick" and he wrung the huge hand of
toll until Tony was embarrassed. and
backed away. You giva me receipt for
him" the workingman suggested.
Receipt? I'll give you the note of
the Archer Tool Works. signed by its
president and treasurer. Here, Paul
and Jerry hurried the man into his
fathers office. where Paul happened to
have been at the moment, here's your
first loan, three hundred dollars from
one of our own men,"
Neither Henry r Archer nor Paul
embarrassed Tony by shaking hands (;
such an action would have been as
strained and unnatural with them as 1t
was spontaneous and characteristic in
Jerry. But Paul made an immediate
dive for his own desk to get pad of the
new note form that, like the advertising
had been prepared during the night in
anticipation of the hoped-for popular

contentedly Ska per cent" and went

his hand but stopped on the way to the
bench where his luncheon waited, to

It was this final defiant cheer Of
Jerry's in the face of possible, even
nrobable defeat, that seemed to make
the appeal heroic, and caught the
Imagination of the people.
The young leader himself had
passed a sleepless night. and looked
anxiously for the first indication or
hint as to what the popular reaction
might be from the way the papers them
selves handled the story, 1t had not
occurred to him that both the actual
publication and the manner of handling
would be a serious test of the character
Of the newspapers themselves. Yet such
was the fact. Like going concerns OF
any sort, they were all more or less at
the mercy of the men who controlled
their credits at the banks, and these
were subject to pressure from the same
source that had threatened the Archers,
yet to their honor be it said that not
one of the morning journals ignored the
news value of the story. Some, how
ever, played it up with greater enthusi-
asm than others.
Equal prominence, too, with the sem
sational defiance and appeal of the
tool works was given to the political
feature of the news. The information
that such an organization as the Real
Republicans had been quietly developing
for more than a year and was now COM
plete in every detail was treated as of
the greatest Importance, while the most
striking principle ofthe new movement
was instantly singled out. This was in
sistence upon the fact that 1t was Re-
publican enterprise and Republican
only, and would offer no ticket at the
general election II its candidates were
beaten for the Republican nomination at
the primaries.
This, from the standpoint of reform
er's campaign. was as bold an innovation
as the, tool works announcement, and
there was a note Of challenge in II that,

Shows fine spirit. I must say
conceded Mr. Archer. still we might
have expected our own men to stand by
US. I'm not going to venture to hope
much until l see the first $50 from out
side, We should have had some response
this morning, / think"
Give 'em time to think and to go to
the banks and get their money and time
to get here" argued Jerry, who after
the strain of the night and morning was
now in exuberant spirits. IF you and
Paul want a luncheon today you had
better get out and grab n now, for
have, hunch you're going to be pretty
busy this afternoon"
But before Henry. r. Archer could
act on his suggestion lady stood in the
Office, a lady with very bright eyes, a
refined face and an air of perfect self
possession. She waved a fan of ostrich
feathers and was dressed elegantly but
coolly In garments of a white and sum-
merry thinness. as became the season.
This lady was Mrs. John Thomas O'Day.
She was known as a society woman. and
was supposed to have. no more than a
faddish interest in matters of civic i'm
port.
"Ah, Jerry" she laughed. playing with
the ostrich feathers assiduously. What

Not quite. Hiram. but It will be in

his wife as she hurried to prepare the
evening meal.
Hiram was always grumbllng when
the meals were not on time and poor
Ellen was ofttimes discouraged She
was a frail, little woman. not fitted for
the many tasks the farm life held for
her, while Hiram seemed never tired,
working from early morning till late at
night.
"Oh, dear" sighed Ellen as she sank
into the rocker for few minutes rest
before setting the table. II wish ne
would be more thoughtful and not
grumble SO much. Oh for few kind
words. I'm about discouraged, trying
to. do so much work and never look
or caress. All work, work. work well

Having eaten in silence hardly notic-

the table and went into the kitchen,
took his cap and started for the barn.

the barn door. "Yes," shouted Ellen

remained sitting, too tired to move

she hurried out with the pals, and pe-
tracing her steps to the house finished
her work with tired limbs and aching
heart.
''Why coAldnt he have asked me to
ride over 10 the Jacksons? 1t is long
time since I was over there, and Mrs.
Jackson Is the dearest little woman -
Ellen, with much bitterness in her
heart, sat long into the twilight. She
had been wondering how she could cure
her husband of his grumbling and his
selfishness. II have it," thought Ellen

CHAPTER xxx
The People on Trial

AFTER Jerry had introduced Mr. Cas-
"A tleman to his father and made the
latter acquainted with the generous i'm
lionaire to their office, the latter took
his way back down town and thence TO
Atlantic City, prepared to watch a very
interesting engagement from afar. But
he left behind him one idea that stirred
Jerry almost more than the financial
necessities of the firm. That was his
remark that such project would put
the people of Philadelphia on trial.
Jerry had come to have a great SYM
pathy for and great faith in the COM
mon people. He had seen how painfully
concrete were all their problems with
what self-respect they set about to meet
their own needs, and how honestly loyal
they tried to be to those who were loyal
did not keep them from knowing who
was loyal to them and who not.
Publicity Publicity! Tell the peo-
pie the facts. They can be trusted to
More and more this had come 10 nave
. cardinal place in Jerry's political
creed. Now he had before him job of
telling some facts to the people, and it
fair test: 1t was therefore no longer
q mere labor of necessity, but one Of
love and enthusiastic faith, that he un-
dertook. Yet as his mind buckled to
the job he realized how big task was
in front of him. Moreover, the seed
must be sown and the crop ripened and
harvested all within forty-eight hours.
Already. by Jerry's request, Paul had
set things in motion and the sign-painter
was rallying his forces for another night
painting job. An expert writer Of news
paper advertising and the head of a
Arm of printers and bill posters were
also on their way out to the Archer
plant. for Jerry, besides securing wide
and immediate publicity, had to supply
some detailed knowledge this time, and
dared not. therefore. depend upon the
sign alone.
Before the advertising writer arrived
Jerry had the copy ready for the sign.
II was to be brief hut startling, some
thing that would set the people of the
vicinity talking and make a newspaper
story, while additional details were to
be supplied in the newspaper advertise
ments and in the huge posters that be-
fore noon of the following day were to
confront the eye in every part of the
city,
This time. too, Jerry notified the news
papers in advance of what was to come
on. and through the early evening kept
open house for reporters and photogra-
pliers at his Office in the works. The
photographers took flashlights Of Jerry
