CHAPTER VII

The next morning showed the
house on Thunder Mesa almost
snowboard. Bob ate his breakfast
in silence, after trying unsuccess-
fully to find out about the condi-
ton Of the roads form the frozen
faced Mexican who served him. Bob
had made up his mind that, some
how, he would get into communica-
ton with the outside world that
day.
Being shut up on this mesa, with
a household Of eccentrics and posi-
BILE murderers, was unbearable.
When the sheriff and coroner came
to see about Pearl Sans body, Bob
had decided he would take things
into his own hands. At least, he
was determined to get Betty away.
Those eerie cries, coming across the
courtyard the night before in the
darkness, had unnerved him more
than he cared to admit. He knew
now that this girls safety was be-
coming tremendously important to
him.
Bob went down the corridor to
find Ramon Vasquez and Pearl John
and see If they knew when the
officers Of the law would arrive.
But young de Forest was nowhere
to be found, and, after wandering
airrlessly about the big rooms for
several minutes without seeing even
servant, Bob stepped into a small
library. The room was lined with
books, from floor to ceiling, and
had two massive carved chairs fac
ing the fireplace. These chairs had
very high backs. Ramon VasqueZ
was standing by window. looking
out glumly at the piles Of snow that
shrouded the mesa. At the sound OF
Bobs step, young Vasquez whirled
nervously.
Looks like a long session, even If
we weren't held here by what hap
pened last night, doesn't it," Bob
asked.
The other man nodded, then
scowled darkly. "Yes-but If they
wanted to, they could get those
Mexicans to work clearing path !
for car. Has anyone come from
down below yet, do you know? They
might get through on horseback"
Are you sure Pearl Pierre sent
for anyone?" Bob asked. HE seems
to have his own ideas OF handling |
this affair without much concern
about the law"
Ramon looked up sharply. you |
mean you don't think Pearl Pierre
wants the outside world to know
about this?"
what do you think?" Bob coun-
tered. HE was certainly arbitrary
about things last night. Made 1t
very plain he was handling the case
to suit his own ideas. And this
mesa makes a rather effective pris-
on II anyone should want to use 1t
for that"

A PRESIDENT.

FOR % years Manuel Estrada
Cabrera was president Of
Guatemala. Born In 1857, he had
been appointed departmental chief
justice by his predecessor, Presi-
dent Barrios. When Barrios was
assassinated in 1893, Cabrera be-
came chief executive.
Then began rule of progress
and achievement for Guatemala.
Cabrera's was the first govern
ment in the New World to adopt
aviation for the army. He was
responsible for the real develop
ment Of Guatemala, but In his
later years dissension and distrust
of Cabrera arose.
In 1920, Cabrera was forced
from the government, and Carlos
Herrera, financier and wealthy
plantation owner, replaced him.
Cabrera gathered an army of fol-
lowers and bombarded the CAPT.
tai, killing many citizens. includ-
ing women and children. He was
captured and sentenced to death.
Herrera committed the sentence

Primaries Pronounce
Prelude TO Finish Fight

Any who await the nearing
state primaries with the. SNUG
assurance that they will witness
merely another election with the
usual accompaniment of fatulent
catch-phrases, verbal mud-sling-
ing and outraged integrity which
mark election year are due for a
kick in the Stats (self-inflicted)
when they pay in their votes for
a grandstand seat at the scene of
the battle; for this year will wit
ness the unseen but family heard
battle which has been waging
during the past two years being
brought out into the open. Nor
is this a battle in which truce or
armistice may be called; it is a
fight to the fnish-between an
element which has settled this
state deeply in debt, loaded bust
ness and industry with back
crushing taxes, driven a number
of industries from the state, and
discouraged others from enter
ing; and another element which
is striving to bring the state back
to normal, Tighten taxes, and en-
courage outside concerns, who
will give employment to many,
to settle here.
There can be no quarter given
in this struggle between these
two elements of which we speak:
the Farmer-Labor party and the
Republicans. The usual three
party hight will not exist, because
the state Democrats have split
into two camps, with two sepa-
rate Democratic nominees for
governor, neither of whom can
win unless a miracle brings the
two factions of Democrats to-
gether. At present it is indicated
that the Wolf faction of the
Democrats, if their candidate is
defeated in the primaries, may
swing their support in behind
