then was lost on me, for there had
swooped on me a lightning stroke of
understanding-the whole nefarious
scheme of Germany and the emperor
lay bare to my inner eye. Mexico-the
Panama canal-these were the stra-
tegic points of a world conquest such
as history had never witnessed. Ger
many in possession of Mexico, with
half a million troops massed on our
border-why, she could flippantly tread
on the lions tail any day and go to
war\and say to us: "Help England
and lose Texas, Arizona, New Mexico
and California" With half a million
troops in Mexico. Germany could
spank us into almost anything!
And Mexico, with her almost un-
touched resources; with her hot-blood-
ed troops under German discipline for
twenty years-for ten-for five!
But could stop it For the lever
that was to set the scheme in motion
was thumb-tacked to the bottom of my
sideboard drawer-:he seven bl0od-red
diamonds!
Monsieur's voice had reached stop.
My resolve was taken. {.
"Never!" was the one impassioned
word uttered.
Billy echoed it-"Never!" His
thoughts had flown with mine and had
seen the impending calamity which we
two, out of the world, could now pre-
vent. Then, drawing himself to his
full height, he gave forth our ultima
tum to the nation at large: "You just
go back and tell your Emperor Will
liam that he can never have Mexico or
the Panama canal"

CHAPTER XIII.
Monsieur Appeals to Me.

The effect of our words on monsieur
was the last thing we could have fore
seen. He had been standing all this
while. He sank heavily into his chair,
buried his face In his hands-and
wept! Billy raised disguised eyes to
the ceiling, inviting it to come down
with noise and end the unpleasing
spectacle of man crying tears on a
rug. Then catching my commiserating
eye, Billy communicated his ideas on
the subject with little sneer of his
lip and little shrug of his shoulder.
The next instant, he had seized me by
the arm and pulled me along the hall
whispering: "While he's on the weep
we can talk" and he thrust me inside
the bedroom door, himself remaining
on the sill with an eye to the dining
room.
Monsieur continued to weep--pos
sibly he thought we'd left him out Of
consideration for his emotion.
"Say-this is the very deuce Of a
hole," Billy began in rapid whisper,
sthe very devil Of hole. What we
must do is to go to Washington to-
morrow" ii
"But, Bi:2y-"
"Well, tonight, THEY'VE can catch
the midnight train and be there the
first thing in the morning"
II won't. At least, not now. DO
please listen. I won't do anything till
I've seen MIA DeIario-"
"What the good of wasting time see
ing herr" hi interrupted. "Here's a
case where hours >count-minutes-
seconds, for all we know. How'll she
help, anyway"
''"That's not the question. She en-
trusted them to me-so she's the one
to take them back to flrst-and then
if she says"
"Oh, you know what she'll say" he
argued. "Women are always that
way-don't want any trouble. Now
you take the bull by the horns-go to
Washington tonight
"No. I'm responsible to her."
"How can you be-when she only
found them where the girl must have
put them? He'll confess that. too
when he gets over his weeps."
"Oh, well, since you've got 'em,
suppose you'll do as you like for all Of
my advice" Billy said glumly, stufina
his hands in his pockets. "But il
| you'll take my advice, you'll not waste
time over anything-it's too serious"

FIGHT OVER LEAGUE PAPER

Up in Burliegh county there is an
old-time Alex Mckenzie politician who
has been a newspaper wheel-horse
for the Nonpartisan League almost
since it's inception.
H. P. Knappen, as editor of the
Burliegh County Farmers Press, has
gone the limit in boosting the Town
ley gang. He was picked by the
league to edit the daily paper they
printed at Bismarck during the last
regular session. -

PAGE FIVE

Now, it seems, j. W. Brinton has
decided he wants to run the Burleigh
County Farmers Press himself. That:
paper is the best paying newspaper
property the league has in North Da-
kota. 1t is published at the seat of
state government, and carries column
upon column of legals.
Reports from Bismarck are to the
effect that Knappen and some of his
hackers did all they could to head
Brinton off. But Brinton's friends
control the common stock, and the com
mon stock decides the battle.

man to me for minute, win you2"
I stepped into the kitchen and heard
Billy say to monsieur in low voice:
II see I don't need.to point out to you
the position you're placing yourself in
by refusing an explanation as to how
you came to have those diamonds in
your possession. There's only one
! thing left for me to think"
He paused and thought, Heavens!
Is he going to accuse monsieur?" And
he did.
"YOU STOLE THEM"
was rooted to the floor. The reply
came like shot. Monsieur!" and De
Ravenol leaped to his feet. The two
men had given and taken mortal blow
for monsieur, in his single word, had
returned as good as he got and they
now measured each other.
Billy broke the silence and recalled
me with: "Say-where's that ash
tray?"
The scarlet that had leaped to mon
sieur's cheeks faded as entered the
room. He stood. He lowered. Yet he
spoke with humility.
