up like a bullfrog, he was that
proud. Old Jeff, who was big and
rawboned, had been prospecting in
these Sierra Nevadas just about as
long as I could remember, and
though he never struck any bonan-e
"a, he managed to pan out enough
dust, year in and year out, to keep
his hide stuffed with victuals and
his pipe loaded with tobacco. He
wasn't much of a hand for talking,
but he had a friendly way about
him, and if you dropped by his cabin
near Fat Squaw canyon, he made
you feel right welcome.
Maybe nobody had ever realized
how lonely Old Jeff had been in
that cabin all these years, seven
miles from his nearest neighbor,
with nothing to listen to except the
roar of the waterfall in the canyon.
1t sure cheered him to have the
youngster there. He didn't even
care what had forced bud to come
hightailing south. He brought his
grandson into Cinder Center and
bought drinks all around just to
show him off to the boys.
Dud was about %, long and lean
like Jeff, but he didn't have Jeff's
easy-going ways. When he grinned,
which wasn't often, his lips kind of
twisted, and the grin never got up
into his eyes. They were small eyes,
and hard, and if you looked into
them steady for a while, you felt
sort of squirmy. Killer eyes,
reckon.

they'd been crazy to shoot up tina

bud Haley laughed, and l asked
him what was SO funny?
He said, "What do you mean
crazy? They got away with il
didn't they?"
So right then I knew there wa
something queer about Dud.
I don't know where he frs
learned about the Santa Clar

picked up the news in Cinder Ger

over $4,000 every payday.
Generally they sent two hombr

Agent Tells
 Of FBI's Job

Fred Frohbose, special agent with the Anchorage office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, was guest speaker at last Wednes- days Chamber of Commerce meeting. He replaced William Stein, FBI head in Anchorage, who was unexpectedly called to Nome that morning.
 MT. Frohbose began by outlin- ing the history of the FBI, from it's political origin through it's separation from politics under J. Edgar Hoover in 1924, it's war time job and finally its present peace-time duties.
 He explained the loyalty pro- gram, currently the number one task on the FBI schedule. By ex- ecutive order of the president in 1946 it became necessary to check all employees of the govern ment concerning their loyalty to that government. The FBI was named the agency to conduct that check-up.
 MT. Frohbose cited a mythical case and told how the FBI would follow through on a loyalty check on this individual.
 He explained that this peace time work had become so great in Alaska that the organization had been forced to give up its former work in criminal investi- gation. All activities in that field, formerly handled by the FBI, now are conducted through the office of the territory's marshals.

TERROR In THE U.S.. A.
Continued from page Jfse

zens Union decided to withdraw
all its candidates from the race.
The action was interpreted as
a sign of weakness. People said
the Citizens Union was Just an
other group of idealistic dream
ers who had dabbled at reform
and were ready to quit. But the
Citizens Union wasn't quitting.
1t decided in 1914 to concentrate
all its strength on one ward. the
seventh. This was the residential
ward, high on the hills overlook
ing the business and factory area
of Augusta. the ward where
Fleming and his friends lived.
They waged a desperate cam
paign, cornering their neighbors
on the street, ringing doorbells,
covering the area with posters.
Their aggressive tactics paid off.
The Citizens Union candidate,
Chick" Lehman, carried the
ward, the first defeat for the
Crackers" since 1882.
Now Fleming and the Citi-
zens Union, after fighting SO
long alone, found allies -
war veterans who wanted no
dictatorship at home. They
were young men like Frank
Pierce and John Towill, who
were lawyers. and James Walker,
an insurance agent. The minute
I got back" said Walker, Il

of Commerce launched a regis

through, 1900 men and women
were eligible for the '46 election.
The campaign was a rough
and-tumble slugfest right
through to the last ballot. The
Crackers" had their backs to
the wall. and they knew it. They
let 60 every trick mastered in 80
years. Businessmen who sup
ported the Independents were
threatened.
1T was practically suicide for
