Wtl ft CcJ It CHAPTER XV Continued. In two days, tho grand Jury, with much secrecy, retumed a true bill, and a day later a considerable detachment of Infantry started on a dusty hike up Misery. Furtive and Inacrutublo Hull man eyes along the way wutched them from cabin doors, and counted thetn. They meant also to count them coming buck, and they did not expect the totals to tally. Hack of an Irou spiked fence, and a dut-ty sunburned lawn, the barrack-like facades of the old administration building and Kentucky state capitol frowned on the street and railroad track. About It, on two sides of the Kentucky river, sprawled the town of Frankfort; sleepy, more or lose dishev eled at the center, and stretching to shaded environs of colonial houses set In lawns of rich bluegrass, amid the shade of forest trees. Circling the town in an embrace of quiet beauty rose the Kentucky river hills. Turning in to the gute of the state house enclosure, a mnn, who seemed to be an easterner by the cut of his clothes, walked slowly up the brick walk, and passed around the fountain at the front of the capitol. His steps carried him direct to the main en trance of the administration building, and, having paused a moment in the rotunda, he entered the secretary's of fice of the executive suite, and asked for an Interview with the governor. "Have you an appointment?" the sec retary asked. The visitor shook his head. Scrib bling a brief note on a slip of paper, he Inclosed It in an envelope and handed It to his questioner. "You must pardon my seeming mys teriousness," he said, "but if you let me send In that note 1 think the gov ernor will see me." Once more the secretary studied his man with a slightly puzzled air, then nodded and went through the door that gave admission to the executive's of fice. His excellency opened the envelope and his face showed an expression of surprise. He raised his brows question in gly. "Rough-looking sort?" he inquired. "Mountaineer?" "No. sir. New Yorker would be my guess. Is there anything suspicious?" "I guess not." The governor laughed. "Rather extraordinary note, but send him in." Through his eastern window the governor gazed off across the hills of South Frankfort, to the ribbon of river that came down from the troublesome hills. Then, hearing a movement at his back, he turned, and his eyes took in a well-dressed figure with confidence inspiring features. He picked up the slip from his desk and, for a moment, stood comparing the name rnd the message with the man who had 'ent them in. There seemed to be In his mind some irrecon cilable contradiction between the two. With a slightly frowning seriousness the executive suggested: "This note says that you are Samson South and that you want to see me with reference to a pardon. Whose pardon is it, Mr. South." "My own, sir." The governor raised his brows slightly. "Your pardon for what? The news papers do not even report, that you have yet been lndic'ed." He shaded the word "yet" with a slight emphasis. "I think I have been indicted within the past day or two. I'm not sure my. self." The governor continued to stare The impression he had formed of the "Wildcat'' from press dispatches was warring with the pleasing personal presence of this visitor. Then his fore head wrinkled under his black hair and his lips drew themselves sternly. "You have come to me too soon, sir," he said curtly. "The pardoning power is a thing to be most cautiously used at all times, and certainly never until the courts have acted. A case not yet adjudicated cannot address itself to ex ecutive clemency." Samson nodded. "Quite true," he admitted. "If 1 an nounced that I had come on the matter of a pardon, it was largely that I had to state some business and that seemed the briefest way of putting It." 'Then there Is something else?" "Yes. If it were only a plea for MOST NATURAL OF QUERIES Probably First Interrogation That Was Ever Made Was, "Is It Good to Eat?" In Farm and Fireside Herbert Quick, editor of that publication, writes an editorial in w hich he brought out many interesting facts as to the use of various meats as food. Follow ing iB an Interesting extract from his article: "Whenever we boys found anything animal, vegotable or mineral almost which looked not absolutely repul sive, our first query always was, 'Is it good to eat?" "That Is the oldest question In the world. Every animal asks it a dozen limes a day, and lets sight and smell answer It. Now that war is making a worldwide scarcity, 'Is It good to eat?' becomes a world-wide question for the human beast "Take the,hale, for Instance. We have beeawasting the meat of the whale a)i the many years during which we hate been slaughtering this largest of mammals. Why? The whale is a clemency I should expect '.he matter to be chiefly important to myself. In point of fact, I hope to make it equally Interesting to you. Whether you give me a pardon in a fashion which vi lates all precedent, or whether I sur render myself and go back to a trial which will be merely a form of assas sination rests entirely with you, sir. You will not And me Insistent" Then Samson launched Into the story of his desires and the details of conditions 'which outside Influences had been powerless to remedy be cause they were outside Influences. Some man of sufficient vigor and com prehension, acting from the center of disturbance, must be armed with the power to undertake the house-cleaning, and for a while must do work that would not bo pretty. As far as be was personally concerned, a pardon aft ?r trial would be a matter of purely aca demic Interest. He could not expect to survive a trial. He was at present able to hold the Souths in leash. If the governor was not of that mind he was now ready to surrender himself and permit mutters to take their course. "And now, Mr. South," suggested the governor, after a half-hour of ab sorbed listening, "there is oue point you hsve overlooked. Since in the end the whole thing comes bnck to the ex ercise of the pardoning power, it :s after all the crux of the situation. You may bo able to render such services as those for which you volunteer. I-et us for tho moment uwume that to be true, You have not yet told me a very luv portunt thing. Did you or did you not kill I'urvy and Hollls?" "I killed ilollls," said Samson, as though he were answering a question as to the time of day, "and I did not kill I'urvy." "Kindly," suggested the governor, "give mo the full particulars of that affair." The two were still cloBeted when a second visitor called and was told that his excellency could not be disturbed. Tho second visitor, however, was bo In sistent that the secretary finally con sented to take in the card. After a glance nt It his chief ordered admis sion. The door opened and Captain Cal lomb entered. He was now in civilian clothes, with portentous news written on his face. He paused In annoyance at the sight of a second figure standing with back turned at the window. Then Samson wheeled and the tw'o men rec ognized each other. They hud met be fore only when one was in olive drab; the other in jeaus and butternut. At recognition Callomb's face fell and grew troubled. "You here. South!" he exclaimed. "I thought you promised me that I shouldn't find you. God knows I didn't want to meet you." "Nor I you," Samson spoke slowly. "I supposed you'd be raking the hills." Neither of them was for the moment liaying the least attention to the gov ernor, who stood quietly looking on. "I sent Merrlweather out there," explained Cullomb, impatiently. "I wanted to come here before it was too late. God knows, South, 1 wouldn't have had this meet ing occur for anything under heaven. It leaves me no choice. You are indicted on two counts, each charg ing you w ith murder." The officer took a step toward the center of the room. His fuce was weary, and his eyes wore the deep disgust and fatigue that come from the necessity of performing a hard duty. "You are under arrest," he added quietly, but his composure broke as he stormed. "Now, by God. I've got to take you back and let them murder you, and you're the man who might have been useful to the state." CHAPTER XVI. The governor had been more Influ enced by watching the two as they talked than by v. lint he had heard. "It seems to me, gentleman," he sug gested quietly, "that you are both over looking my presence." He turned to Cullomb. "Your coming, Sid, uuless It was pre arranged between the two of you (which, since I know you, I know was not the case) has shed more light on this matter than the testimony of a dozen witnesses. After all, I'm still the governor." The militiaman seemed to have for gotten the existence of his distin guished kinsman, and, at the voice, his eyes came away from the face of the man he had not wanted to capture, and he shook his head. "You are merely the head of the ex ecutive branch," he said. "You are as helpless here as I am. Neither of us can interfere with the judicial gentry, though we may know' that they stink to high heaven with the stench of blood. After a conviction, you can pardon, but a pardon won't help the dead. 1 don't see that you tun do much of anything, Crlt." "I don't know yet what 1 can do, but I can tell you I'm going to do some thing," said the governor. "You can just begin watching me. In the mean time, 1 believe I am commander-in-chief of the state troops." , swimming beast which suckles its young and lives on clean food.

Judge. "And I am captain of 'F company, but ull I can do Is to obey the orders of a bunch of Iiorglas." "As your superior officer," smiled the governor, "I can give you orders. I'm going to give you one now. Mr. South has applied to me for a pardon in advance of trial. Technically, I have the power to grant that request. Moral ly, I doubt my right. Certainly, I shall not do it without a very thorough sift ing of evidence and grave considera tion of the necessities of the case as well as the danger of the precedent. However, I am considering it, and for the present you will parole your pris oner in my custody. Mr. South, you will not leave Frankfort without my permission. You will take every pre caution to conceal your actual identity. You will treat as utterly confidential all that has transpired here and, above all, you will not let newspaper men discover you. Those are my or ders. Report here tomorrow after noon, and remember that you are my prisoner." Samson bowed and left the two cou sins together, where shortly they were Joined by the attorney general. That evening, the three dined at the execu tive mansion, and sat until midnight In the governor's prlvute office, still deep in discussion. During the long session, Callomb opened the bulky vol ume of the Kentucky statutes, and laid his finger on section 2673. "There's the rub," he protested, read ing aloud: "'The military shall be at all times, and in all cases, in strict subordination to the civil power.'" The governor glanced down to the next paragraph and read in part: " 'The governor may direct the com manding officer of the military force to report to any one of tho following named officers of the district in which the said force Is employed: Mayor of a city, sheriff, Jailer or marshal.'" "Which list," stormed Callomb, "is the honor roll of the assassins." "At all events" the governor had derived from Callomb much Informu tlon as to Samson South which the mountaineer himself hud modestly withheld "South gets bis pardon. That is only a step. I wish I could make him satrap over his province, and provide him with troops to rule tt. Unfortunately, our form of govern ment has its drawbacks." "It might be possible," ventured the attorney general, "to Impeach the sheriff, and appoint this or some' other suitable man to All the vacancy until the next election." "The legislature doesn't meet until next winter," objected Callomb. "There Is one chancel The sheriff down there is a sick man. Let us hope he may die." One day, the Hlxon conclave met in the room over Hollman's Mammoth Department store, and with much pro fanity read a communication from Frankfort, announcing the pardon of Samson South. In that episode, they foresaw the beginning of the end for their dynasty. The outside world was looking on, and their regime could not survive the spotlight of law-loving scrutiny. "The fust thing," declared Judge Hollmnn, curtly, "Is to get rid of these damned soldiers. We'll attend to our own business later, and we don't want them watchln' us. Just now, we want to lie mighty quiet for a spell tee totally quiet until I puss the word." Samson had won back the confi dence of hie tribe, and enlisted the faith of the state administration. He had been authorized to organize a local militia company, and to drill them, provided he could stand answer able tor their conduct. The younger Souths took gleefully to that idea. The mountain boy makes a good soldier. once he has grasped the Idea of dis cipline. For ten weeks, they drilled daily in squads and weekly in platoons. Then, the fortuitous came to pass. Sheriff Forbln died, leaving behind him an unexpired term of two years, and Samson was summoned hastily to Frankfort. He returned, bearing his commission as high sheriff, though, when the news reached Hixon, there were few men who envied him his post, and none who cared to bet that he would live to take his oath of office. That August court day was a mem orable oue In Hixon. Samson South was coining to town to take up his duties. Every oue recognized it as the day of final Issue, and one that could hardly pass without bloodshed. The Hollmans, standing in their luat trench, saw only tho blunt question of Hollmun-South supremacy. For years, the feud had flared and slept and broken again into eruptions, but never before had a South sought to throw his outposts of power across the wa ters of Crlppleshln, and Into the coun ty seat. That the present South came bearing commission as an officer of the law only made his effrontery the more unendurable. Samson had not called for outside troops. The drilling and disciplining of his own company had progressed In silence along .the waters of Misery. They were a slouching,' unmilitury band of uniformed vagabonds, buj; they were longing to fight, and Callomb had been with them, tirelessly whipping them Into rudimentary ahape. After RANGERS MEN OF RESOURCE Hard to Stump Guardians of Uncle Sam's Forests, When They Set Out to Do a Thing. As an example of the resourceful ness of the United States forest rang er, always ready for all emergencies, there stands a 115-foot tower located In the Sltgraves Notional forest, in Arizona, which was entirely built by these men with a very limited equip ment of tools and material. A trtan gulation stathn was needed in one of the districts, but because the area was covered with tall timber and had a very gentle slope, but one good, natural lookout post could be found, and here, unfortunately, the timber was so tall that the tower would have to be at least 100 feet high. The tools and rigging at hand were sufficient to build a tower of only half that height, but, nevertheless. It was decided to undertake the building of the tail tower at once, without wait ing for further equipment, for the rea son that the nearest base of supplies was 75 miles away, and the dangerous all, they were as much partisans as they hail been before they were issued state rifles. The battle, if ft came, would be as factional as the fight of 25 years ago, when the Hollmans held the store and the Souths the court house. Rut back of alt that lay one es sential difference, and it was this dif ference that had urged the governor to stretch the forms of law and put such dangerous power into the bands of one man. That difference was the man himself. He was to take drastic steps, but be was to take them under the forms of luw, and the state execu tive believed that, having gone through worse to better, be would maintain the improved condition. Early that morning, men began to assemble along the streets of Hixon; and to congregate Into sullen clumps with set faces that denoted a grim, -unsmiling determination. Not only the Hollmans from the town and Immedi ate neighborhood were there, but their shaggier, fiercer brethren from remote creeks and covers, who came only at urgent call, and did not como without Intent of vindicating their presence. Old Jake Hollmau, from "over yon" on the headwaters of Dryholo creek, brought his son and fourteen ) eur-old grandson, and all of them carried Win chesters. Long before the hour for the courthouse bell to sound the call which would bring matters to a crisis, women disappeared from the streets, and front shutters and doors closed themselves. At last, the Souths began to ride in by half-dozens, and to hitch their horses at the racks, they also fell into groups well apart. The two factions eyed each other somberly, sometimes nodding or exchanging greetings, for the time had not yet come to light. Slowly, however, the Hollmans began centering about the courthouse. They swarmed In the yard, and entered the empty jail, and overran the halls and offices of the building Itself. The Souths, now com ing In a solid stream, flowed with equal unanimity to McEwer's hotel, near the square, and disappeared in side. Resides their rifles, they carried saddlebags, but not one of the uni forms which some of these bags con tained, nor one of the cartridge belts, had yet been exposed to view. Stores opened, but only for a desul tory pretense of business. Horsemen led their mounts away from the more public racks, and tethered them to back fences and willow branches In the shelter of the river banks, where stray bullets would not find them. ' The dawn 'that morning bad still been gray when Samson South and Captain Callomb had passed the Mil ler cabin. Callomb had ridden slowly on around the turn of the road, and waited a quarter of a mile away. He was to command the militia that day. 4 -S- i ? Ho Held Her Very Close. If the high sheriff should call upon him. Samson went In and knocked, and instantly to the cabin door came Sally's slender, fluttering figure. She put both arms about him, and her eyes, as she looked Into his face, were terri fied, but tearless. "I'm frightened, Samson," she whis pered. "God knows I'm going to be praying all this day." "Sally," he said, softly, "I'm coming buck to you but, if I don't" he held her very close "Uncle Splcer has my will. The farm is full of coal, and days are coming when roads will take It out, and every ridge will glow with coke furnaces. That farm will make you rich, If we win today's fight." "Don't!" she cried, with a sudden gasp. "Don t talk like that." "1 must," he said, gently. "I want you to make me a promise, Sally." "It's made, she declared. "if by any chance I should not come hack, I want you to hold Uncle Splcer and old Wile McCnger to their pledge. They must not privately avenge me. They must still stand for the law. I want you, and this Is most Important of all, to leave these mountains " Her hands tightened on his shoulder. fire season was close at hand. The materials available consisted of 300 feet of three-quarter-Inch rope In four pieces, the longest being 100 feet in length; two double blocks six inches long, and one Binglo sheave block of the same size. The tools consisted of axes, two-men saws, liutcliets, crow bars, two pairs of linemen's climbers and belts and a brace and bit. Tele phone wire was used for guys. The crew was made up of temporaries and two ranger At the start there were eight men, Including one cook, one teamster and the man In charge. By the time the tower was half-built the crew was cut down to four men, but, notwithstanding these adverse condi tions, the work was done, and well done, and did excellent service, and will continue to do so for some time to come. Unkind Suggestion. "Writing much verse now?" asked the critic. "Not much," returned the poet. "Only enough to keep the wolf from the door." "Why, do you read it over to him?" asked the critic New York American. if "Not that, Samson," she pleaded; "not these mountains whore we've been together." "You promised. I want you to go to the Lescotts In New York. In a year, you can come back If you -want to; but you must promise that," "I promise," she reluctantly yielded. It was balf-past nine o'dlock when Samson South and Sidney Callomb rode side by side Into Hixon from the east. A doxen of the older Souths, who had not become soldiers, met them there, and, with no word, sepa rated to close about them in a circle of protection. As Ctllomb's eyes swept the almost deserted streets, so silent that the strident switching of a freight train could be heard down at the edge of town, he shook bis head. As ho met the sullen glances of the gathering In the courthouse yard, he turned to Sam son. "They'll fight," he said, briefly. Samson nodded. "I don't understand the method." de murred the officer, with perplexity. "Why dou't they shoot you at onco. What are they waiting for?" "They want to see," Samson assured him, "what tack I mean to take. They want to let the thing play itself out. They're Inquisitive and they're cau tious, because now they are bucking the state and the world." Samson with his escort rode up to the courthouse door and dismounted. He was for ti e moment unarmed and his men walked cu en h :'e of him, while the onlooklng llollinuns stood back in surly silence to let him pass In the office of the county Judge Sam . son said briefly: "I want to get my deputies sworn In." "We've got plenty of deputy sher iffs," was the quietly Insolent rejoin der. "Not now we haven't any." Saw son's voice was sharply Incisive. "I'll name my own assistants." "What's the matter with these boys?" The county" Judge waved his band toward two bold-over deputies "They're fired." Tho country judge laughed. "Well, I reckon I can't attend to that right now." "Then you refuse?" "Mebby you might call It that." Sampson leaned on the Judge's tuble and rapped sharply with his knuckles. His handful of men stood close and Callomb ca glit his , breath In the hea-y air of storm-freighted suspense. The Hollmun partisans filled the roo.n and others were crowding to the doors. "I'm high sheriff of this county now." said Samson, sharply. "You are coun ty Judge. Do we co-operate or fight?" "I reckon," drawled the other, "that's a mutter we'll work out as we goes along. Depends on how obedient ye air." , "(,'m responsible for the peace and quiet of this county," continued Sam son. "We're going to have peace and quiet." The judge looked ubout him. The in dications did not appear toYiin indica tive of peace and quiet. "Air we?" he inquired. "I'm coming bt k here In a half hour," said the new sheriff. "This Is an unlawful and armed assembly. When I get back I want to find the courthouse occupied only by unarmed citizens who have business here." "When ye comes buck," suggested the county Judge, "I'd advise that ye resigns yore Job. A half-hour Is about es iong as ye ought ter try ter hold hit." 1 Samson turned and walked through the scowling crowd to the courthouse steps. "Gentleme ," he said. In a cloar, far- carrying voice, ".there is no need of an armed congregation at this court house. I call on you In the name of the law to lay aside your arms or scat ter." There was murmur which for an In stant threatened to become a roar, but trailed into a chorus of derisive laugh ter. Samson went to the hotel, accompa nied by Callomb. A half-hour later the two were back at the courthouse with a half-dozen companions. The yard was bnipty. t'amson carried his fath er's rifle, in that half-hour a telegram. prepared in advance, had Hashed to Frankfort. "Mob holds courthouse need troops." And a reply had flashed back: , "Use local company Callomb com manding" So that form or aw was met. The courthouse doors were closed and its windows barricaded. The place was no longer a judicial building. It was a fortress. As Samson's party paused at the gate a warning voice called: "Don't come no Higher!" The bodyguard began dropping back to shelter. I demand admission to the court house to make arreBts," shouted the new sheriff. In answer a spattering of rifle reports came from the jail win dows. Two of the Souths tell.'
