II won't. ReasSuringly Dick

desperate doings are these in
the ranch house of a respectable
American citizen?"
Her little hand clenched. THE
man you threw down the steps
was Bull Pablo-one of Sari's
hired killers. He's part of the
campaign to muzzle Wills paper.
It's maddening, Dick. For weeks
we've been getting threats.
Everything from personal vio-
lence to blowing up the presses.
Pablo must have followed me
here, for a few minutes ago he
rode over and repeated the old
story of what they were going to
do if Will kept attacking them.
Then you came" Her eyes rose
to his and Dicks own eyes grew
brighter watching her.

thing-there's trouble headed
for the border country, Nora,
sooner than even you and Will
believe"
The girls eyes were fixed
thoughtfully on the desert. you
mean Sari is going to put the
settlers off their land?"
Dick nodded.
"Sari's been padding the
town with gunner. They're
supposed to be working on the
ditch and laying the founda-
ton for the dam. AS a matter
of fact, they're more familiar
with a six !un and knife than
with a pick and shovel Their
real reason for being here is
to crush any opposition to Sari's
plans. That much I've learned.
The question l ha"en't answered
is-what are the ranchers going
to do bout it?"
What can they do? sari

the wall. Now he's parcelling

them at fancy prices"

they only hadn't been so quick
to sell"
But the girl answered, "your
fathers bank forced many Of
them to sell to cover their loans.
Others sold because they were
promised stock and rights in
the old irrigation company. Oh.
it all looked fair enough at
first. But after the original
company was reorganized the

and clatter of hoofs disappeared
at a gallop over the nearby
knoll.
Thoughtfully Dick turned
back to the ranch house, and as
he raised his head he heard
