LIBERALS TURN
TO LEADERSHIP
OF Toilette
Young Senator Shows Rare
Ability in Capturing
G. 0. P. Farley.
BY RUTH FINNEY

KANSAS CITY, June 10.-One
interesting fact stands out in a re-
view of the events of last week.
That is the revelation that new
Young chfeftain is ready, when the
time comes, to take the leadership
f the liberal school OF political
thought in this country.
The one surprise of the Republl-
IAN convention was the reception
riven Senator Robert M. LaFollette'
.Jr.. by a thousand delegates organ
led to vote against all the things
ne was anxious that they vote for
Showed Ability in Capital
La Toilette had already exhibited
his ability as legislator and a
fighter in the Senate at Washing
ION. It took a different quality,
however, to capture such crowd
as he did rouse and capture when
he went before the convention with
his minority platform.
La Toilette proven then that he
had the presence and personality
to lead a popular fight.
Since the death of the elder
LaFollette, such a personality has
oeen lacking in the group out OF
which a third party, if it is ever
again organized, must spring.
Norris Lacks Youth
Senator George w. Norris, best
loved of the liberal group, is no
longer young and lacks the gift OF
waving crowds. La Toilette follows
closely the Norris philosophy OF
politics, and has in addition youth
and a flare for oratory.
SIX more years in the Senate may
pave the way for his advancement
to even greater prominence.

Virginia informed her unhesitat-

a check for that. It was the shock
of finding out that haven't great

pletely."
Miss Evans looked blank 1.-THE

peated. perplexed. HE didn't make
any, Miss Brewster. I know that.
Your account has stood at $500 all
summer, and he never once bought
anything for you"
Are you sure?" Virginia cried.
quite sure. 1 wonder why he
told you such thing? But I see
now why he didn't want us to be
friendly. He knew I'd tell you the
truth. I suspected he was up to
some trickery, but I didn't think
it mattered enough to me to risk
losing my position to warn you,
but it did. I've hated myself ever
since I let him dictate to me how
I should treat you. 1 really wanted
to help you but I was too cow
ardly."
There wasn't any reason why
you should have risked anything
for my sake" Virginia said, giving
her hand a sympathetic little pat.
But you are risking your job now,
you know" she added as a remind
er that Miss Evans had brought
a serious charge against her en-
ployer.
1--WE made up my mind to leave
him." the secretary stated grimly
But can't you think Of some rea-
son why he might have deceived
you?"

she went on, more to herself than
to her listener. II will know very
soon, though. Will you get me

Miss Evans brought water in a
paper cup and Virginia slipped it
slowly. 81 don't suppose you could
give me a check for $500 and take
this one" she said suddenly.

| the day she had first lunched with
Virginia, and instructed to refuse
further invitations from the former
society girl.
She was astonished to have her
hopeful assumption regarding Oil
ver's arrival justified a few min
uteS later.
He showed no surprise at seeing
Virginia there and asked her into
his private Office almost without a
preliminary greeting. Miss Evans
understood the meeting had been
arranged.
But what passed between the two
she could only guess when, about
twenty minutes later, Virginia stag
gered out of divers Office and COL
lapsed upon the floor. She had
closed the door behind her, how
ever, and there was no sound from
her lips.
Oliver did not know what had
happened. Miss Evans instantly de-
cided not to call him. She only
glanced at the door with fierce ha-
tired before she stopped to assist
Virginia, who lay motionless at her
feet.
The girl was not easily revived,
though Miss Evans worked franti-
cally over her limp body. At the
first sign of consciousness there
was a wild, desperate light in her
eyes. 1t terrified Miss Evans.
Virginia seized the latter's hand
and chung to it while a veritable
paroxysm OF trembling shook her
like the ague Miss Evans imagined
she heard her teeth chattering.
Fortunately no one from the other
Offices came into the reception room
before Virginia was able to get to
her feet and waved to a chair.
Miss Evans cast many anxious
glances toward divers door while
she aided Virginia to regain her
composure.
81 want to talk with you," she
whispered when Virginia was calm
enough to heed what she was say
ing. please go out and wait for
me in the hall. I'll get one of the
girls in the inner Office to take my
desk and then We'll go to the rest
room. I've something important to
tell you"
Virginia looked at her searchingly
and appeared to realize her serious
ness.
She nodded and Miss Evans
helped her to her feet ana led her
to the door. A few minutes later
the secretary joined her in the hall
and guided her to the rest room.
1t was a modern, cheerfully fur
nished place with touches and COM
Portable chairs. Miss Evans made
Virginia remove her hat and lie
down before she would talk to her.
Finally she pulled chair close
to her side and said: you may
have wondered why 1 refused to
lunch with you after that first day.
Well" she hurried on without
waiting for an answer-"Mr. Cut
ter instructed me to have nothing
whatever to say to you. He made
it quite plain that it would cost me
my position to do So"
Virginia raised herself on an ell
bow. DO you know why?" she
asked.
mo, I don't" Miss Evans told
her; "but if you will tell me what
happened just now in his Office per-
haps may be able to figure it out" "

Never mind, I'll get it from him"
Virginia walked firmly back to
divers office and right to his desk
without faltering.
She was fighting mad now, and
he at once saw that something had
happened to turn her against him.
81 want to know why you've been
lying to me-" she demanded as he
got up and faced her.
Her words clipped off like bits of
ice. Oliver made a shivering ges-
ture to pretend fear, but Virginia
did not thaw in the least.
ooh, you mean about the differ
ence between your money and that?P
he said, observing the check in her
hand.
"Just little trick to give you a
lift, Virginia. How did you find it
out?" His voice was light but he
could not conceal an expression of
uneasiness in his eyes.
Give me another check at once, "
she ordered him, quickly deciding
to play his game until the matter
of her account was properly settled.
and throwing the slip of paper on
his desk.
Oliver drew out his check book
and wrote a second check. When
Virginia had it in her bag she
raised her eyes to his and gave him
a look he was to remember with a
sheepish feeling for long time 10

Nov I want to know why you
have been pretending you were

with dangerous quietness.

that they spend so much time thinking

This time of the year is most as
