PAGE SIX THE CITIZEN, FRIDAY, JANUARY 3, 1913. HIS RISE TO POWER By Henry Russell Miller, Author of "The Man Higher Up" Copyright, 1911, by the Bobbs-Aierrlll Company SYNOPSIS Senator Murchell, leader of the state machine, and Sheehan, local boss of New Chelsea, offer the nomination for district attorney to John Dunmeade. Dunmeado is Independent In his political Ideas. Dunmeade will accept the nomination. His father, a partisan Judge, congratu lates him. Ills Aunt Roberta urges John to call on Katherlno Hampden, daughter of a capitalist. Katherlne Hampden Is a worshiper of success. She and John are friends. Jere my Applesate, a political dependent, cam paigns for John ad the state ticket. In Netf Cfielsea lives Warren Blake, a model young bank cashier, connected with Hampden In "high finance." They try without success for John's aid. The rottennoss of politics In his state and party as revealed In his campaign dls m Jci. F nails upon Katherlne. Katherine's peril In a runaway re veals to her and John their unspoken olve. John publicly "turns down" the machine of his party. John will not compromise with his conscience even for the sake of win ning Katherlne, and the two part. '.Tne election was a week away. A -week is a short time, but in it, if you arc a young man not unwilling to lose an occasional night's sleep, a great deal can be accomplished. John's journeys took him into Plumvllle and Into every ward thereof and into the towuships. In these latter districts he had less need of the diplomat's tongue to win recruits "workers" they were called nnd well called. Ho found volunteers a-plenty, Farmers Cranshawe and Sykes and Criswoll and others, sober, unemotional men who were yet willing to follow In a forlorn hope. On the day before election, faith In his follows quickened, he moved on New Chelsea. When election day dawned, a beautiful, cloudless day happy omen! he knew that at every polling place In the coun ty was one man at least working In the Interest of John Dunmeade and that most of them would be loyal. The state ticket had a narrow escape from defeat that autumn. Only the two great cities with their machines, their fraud and their supineness saved it. Benton county went for the oppo sition, not entirely, however. One brand was saved from the burning, although a certain faction of the party was not greatly elated over Dun meado's victory. A young man, palo, stirred to the depths by a victory hft had not be lieved possible, could not understand, was at his window gazing nur&m'i fully up into the sky. "I have found my place. My peo ple! I am willing to pay." It wns a vow of consecration. The courtroom In the dingy old court house of New Chelsea was crowded on a certain day In May, past the point of mere discomfort. The voice of the defendant's counsel rose and fell, no was something of an actor, and ho put a deal of con vincing passion into his words. In New Chelsea oratory is still loved. The audience hung intent, almost breathless, on the scene enacted before them. They had the feeling of being not spectators, but participants in the little drama. Perhaps they were, for it was the trial of Jim Sbeehnn. Senator Murchell was not listening to the speech. Ho was Intently regard ing the set profile across tho counsel table and measuring tho man ho saw there ngalnst the boyish, eager nnd very likeable young man whom, al most a year before, a littlo boss and a big had sought td press into their service. John Dunmeado had grown. One saw that In the already grave, al. most sad, lines of his face. Work and thought and responsibility and pur poso and something else of which the senator had no Inkling had set their stamp upon htm. There hail been no lack of accom plishmeut during tho five months of office holdiug. To this truth eloquent witnesses might havo been called Butch Maley nnd Red Brlcker, al ready serving terms in tho peniten tiary; Slayton, a fugitive, ball forfeit ed; Brown and Parsons, free only ponding nppeal; ana now Sheehan, his fate hanging In tho balance. Tho ma chine, Senator Murchell know, would bo rebuilt better and stronger than ovor, but for tho present it was sadly, sadly out of gear. Ho let his glance stray from John to tho defendant. Sheehan sat slouched in his chair in an attitude that ho vainly sought to render Jaunty, confi dent. Ills cheeks had fallen in slight ly, his eyelids wcro puffy and red rim med. Ills mouth hung flabbily, nis hands played nervously with a piece of paper, Whittredgc, tho famous lawyer brought from Steel City to defend Shee han, brought his brilliant peroration to a close. Tho audience relapsed info tm expectant silence, all eyes fixed oft the district attorney, For a moine, remaiiTeff'ns he hud sat throughout tho plea for the defenso, motionless, lean ing n littlo forward and staring fixedly at the wall behind tho Judge, as though ho saw a vislou. Tho moment ended. He rose and stood beforo tho Jury box, first ad dressing the court. Ho smiled gravely at tho jurors. It had taken a whole day's session to select them, but ho knew them and that they wcro well chosen. Then tho smile faded from his lips and eyes, replaced by a look to which his neighbors wcro growing ac customed. He began to speak. "Gentlemen of the jury, what 1 have to do is not pleasant. But thero is a thing called duty." As tho first words fell Murcholl's In terest leaped. Ho knew that he was string n man mount to a climax in his life. From tho beginning the nudlence was caught in the man's spell by some thing that breathed through his voice and that had been absent from Whit trelgo's pcrfervid periods. He had a clear, flexible voice and know how to use It. The speech bad been skillfully plan ned. At first he confined his argument to tho jury and tho cage at bar. Logic ally he marshaled the evidonco against the defendant and analyzed tho de fense. Then when ho felt that he had brought IntellectUHl conviction to all he began to direct his words at the au dience not for the telepathic effect on tho jury, but because he believed a ver dict of guilty would be worthless un less It aroused a common horror for tho crime. Novor afterward In a speech did John reach quite the same heights as on the afternoon when the bright blade of his young Indignation cut into tho con sciences of his hearers. Tho mattor be came deeply personal with them. Each man suddenly felt himself aggrieved, felt that a shameful attempt had been made to take advantage of his good faith and trust. And then, even whllo they were condemning Sheehan, John seemed to arraign them. Ho set them to asking tho question, What part have I in this crime? Such offenses are pos sible only among a people asleep. They were both aggrieved and aggres sors. Senator Murchell sat to all outward seeming impassive. Ho listened, as as tonished as tho rest, but with under standing and he was himself amazed to mark it sadly. For ho read in the ardent face nnd words a passion for a hopeless Ideal. So much power, he thought, going to waste! For he knew, bettor than did thoso who pos sessed It, tho power of moral passion controlled but always properly con trolled! Was thero not somo way to bind this force to his interest? Bribery nt the polls nnd falsification of election returns, familiar weapons of machine politics, so long used that they had ceased to arouso horror and revolt In tho careless, calloused hearts of tho people, were John's text. They explained tho continuance of the ma chine In power. They shed a bright light, too, on the so called genius of certain political leaders at which men marveled as at somo miraculous mani festation of godlike mind it was not genius, merely crude, primitive dishon esty requiring the direction of no com manding Intellect, needing nothing but the will to debauch others' honor. "It is tho case of government by individu al craft and greed against government by tho law that is tho expression of tho moral sense of the people," ho said, and sat down. The audience stirred uneasily. Murchell smiled grimly. The voice of the judge was cold and even, devoid of emotion, as ho began to Instruct tho jury. Critical listeners observed that his charge favored tho defendant rather more strongly than the evidence seemed to require. They attributed it to his nnxlety not to bo biased by the fact that tho district at torney was his son. Judge Dunmeade was said to possess an admirably judi cial temperament. Tho Jury, impor tantly led by tho fat bailiff, Died out of the courtroom. Thero were no other cases on tho day's list, and tho Judge stalked down from the bench to await tho verdict in his chambers. John went to his office. Senator Murchell and Whlttredge conducted the droop ing Sheehan to tho witness room awny from tho curious eyes of tho crowd. Most of the spectators waited to see tho end of tho drama. A half hour later the buzz of conver sation suddenly ceased. Tho Judge wns ."he bench. Sheehan, with and Murchell, took his .ao tnble. They were fol- . - by John. Then tho jury filed back Into tho box. "Gentlemen of the Jury, hearken to your verdict as the court hath recorded it. You find the defendant guilty as indicted. And so say you all?" said tho clerk. Tho jurors nodded. Shocban fell back in his chair with an audible BWian. Two big tears coursed ludi crously down his fat cheeks. But no body laughed, no plucked anxiously at Murcholl's sleeve. "Havo I got to go to jail?" he whim pered. Murchell drew away from the touch. "Not unless our friend Whlttredge has forgotten how to delay justice" Tho Jury was discharged. Whit tredgo informed tho court that tho de fense would movg,for a now trial, ball was renewed, nnd tho court was ad journed, Tho nudienco slowly made Its way out into tho square, whero lit tle knots of noisy, excited men gath ered. John saw Sheehan standing forlornly by tho table. Tho big, ponderous flguro with tho misery shining out of its eyes seemed very pathetic. And, after all, Sheehan was tho worst victim of the system. Impulsively John went over to him. Sheehan suddenly seized one of John's hands in both bis own. hnnv, can't vou eet mo out of this letTmo off?' Ill get out oT "here nover go Into politics again, so help mo!" John's heart gave him n wronch as ho shook his head. "I wish I could, Sheehan," ho replied honestly. "But you're out of my hands now." Ho turned awny sadly, no senso of triumph in his victory. When ho nppenred at tho door of the courthouso somo one raised a cheer. It passed along from group to group, un til all In tho square had joined in a short, sharp saluto. It was not an hys terical demonstration, but unusual for calm, self contained Now Chelsea. It lasted only a few seconds. "Young man," said Senator Murchell, "enjoy this moment. It won't last long. You aro at your npex you are a hero among your neighbors. But they nre cheering you, not what you said." "Not me, but what I said. They seo n. principle." "You'ro not tho first man who has held that delusion to his sorrow." CHAPTER IX. Criticisms and Wiles. EOPLE said that Senator Mur chell maintained his legal residence In Now Chelsea only becauso an unwritten law re quired each end of tho state to be represented In the senate, and tho va cancy which ho had been eloctod to fill had been from tho western district This was only half a truth. He really liked these men and women among whom his youth had been spont, who looked upon him half familiarly, half in awe, and who, until tho late upris ing and the advent of John Dunmeade, had followed unqucstlonlngly his po litical gospel. Most of tho time he spent, from tho exigencies of his po sition, in Washington or in tho big house In Adclphla; but as ho grow older ho came to look forward moro and more eagerly to tho summer months that supported his "legal resi dence." He looked, hesitating, toward tho old colonial house across the street. Then ho started toward it. Must tho habit of a lifetime be broken merely be causo a son of that houso had leveled a lanco against him? And, besides, thero was a small matter of business to transact. He perceived the figure of an old woman on a bench under the trees, darning Industriously, and he smiled at first In amusement. Then the smile became gentler. Sho looked up as ho approached. Ho held out Lis hand. "Good afternoon, Miss Roberta." "Good afternoon, Will Murchell." Sho continued her darning. "I'll not shako hands." sho answered his ges ture calmly. "I don't think I'll ever shako hands with you again. John says you're a dangerous man. John Is right." "I inferred from his speech," ho an swered with a twinkle, "that he hold somo such opinion. Wero you at the trial?" "I was not! You may sit down," sho commanded, making room for hiin, "because I want to ask you a ques tion." He obeyed. "What havo you been doing to Hugh and our John? This house has been like a funeral ever slnco these trials began. Hugh has been as grumpy as as a dog with a boll. And John he doesn't say much, but ho feels it It's this politics! I wish," sho concluded vongefuliy, "a plngue'd carry off all you politicians." "But, Roberta, who'd run tho coun try?" Miss Roberta sniffed. "I guess tho country could run Itself better than you politicians do." "So there's coolness between tho judge and John, oh? I suppose they've fallen out over tho trials. Naturally John Is just a hot headed Idealist, while the judge is a practical man." "A practical man!" sho sniffed tartly, "If you'd been doing for tho judge for nearly thirty years you wouldn't call him that, I guess. Why, ho even be Uoves that you're going to put him in the supremo court." "And you don't?" "Of course not! I tell him so, but ho won't believe me. ne's so puffed up with his own lmportanco nnd selfish ness ho won't listen to senso and tries to make his son's lifo miserable." "Roberta," ho said abruptly, "try to keep John out of politics." "Because he Is fighting you?" "That, ho said sontentlously, "might be a sufficient reason. But I'm not thinking of that. It isn't tho game for a man of his sort." "You didn't think of that when you believed you could use him. I wish I could keep him out But wo Dun- meades are set in our opinions, ne'll go on fighting, now ho's started, until ho breaks himself ngalnst your hard ness or becomes ilko you." Ho got up abruptly and went Into tho house. In tho library ho found Judge Dunmeado before his desk. scratching away at an opinion. With that heavy dignity which ho imparted oven to the smallest actions of life the Judgo waved Murchell to a seat "That son of yours gave us some thing of a surpriso to-day. Looks ns though Sbeehnn would havo to go over tho road. Unless," Murchell added In quiringly, "there's a chance to win on nppoal?" "No. John tried his case carefully, Thero wero no errors." "Er about what ought to bo the sentence, do you think?" It would not bo correct to say that tho judge assumed a Judicial air; that consciously, ho always wore. It mere ly became heavier. "What should you suggest?" Murchell mndo a slight motion with his hand to indicate that any sugges tion from him was a nogliglblo matter, nnd answered, "Would four months bo MH-m-m! Ono must remomocr, ui course, that four months for Shoohan would be a heavlor sontenco than a year for another." Tho judgo cleared his throat. "I'll tnko It under consid eration." A queer smllo softening tho lines of his mouth tho sonator sat staring at tho portrait of Thomas Dunmeade. "John," ho said at last, "mado a good speech, eh, judgo?" The elocution was good," was tho carefully considered answer. "But to think a Dunmeade should voico such rabid radicalism, such wild sontimont olltlos! John's course will not nffect tho matter wo discussed last winter, will it?" "You mean tho Justiceship? My In fluence in the organization is a little uncertain just at present. Thoso trials haven't helped either." "I have that also against my son," the judgo said angrily. "He has made It more difflcult for his father to realize a lifelong ntnmuon. hcsiuos, no nu lled, "attacking my best friend. Ho Is too selfish nnd sot in his opinions to consider his father's interest no doesn't get it from me. Ho is," tho judge concluded, "his mothor's son." The senator did not smllo. "His mother's son!" Ho was not a sentlmontal man. He did not "love tho memory" of Anno Dunmeado nor Indulge in sweetly sad retrospection, no thought of her now merely as marking one stago of his development. He remembered her as a gentle yet high spirited thing full of ardent enthusiasms and with an un shakable belief it struck him now ns almost pathetic in the goodness of her fellows and the ultimate triumph of "the right." There must have begn, ho thought, unsuspectod possibilities pos sibilities that had not been realized In him since he could love this woman. Ho was far from ready to admit that their realization would have been prof itable. His mother's son. I guoss that ex plains him." Ho rose. "About that Justiceship I'll see what can be done. But I promise nothing definitely bo far ahead. You understand that?" "Certainly," the judge assented. "But I expect you to do your best. I feel," he added with dignity, "that my services to my country and to my par ty warrant my expectation. And I ought to draw the old soldier vote to tho ticket." "And, judge," Murchell concluded, think over the Sheehan sentence think it over." Ho went out of the Zoom. On the next Saturday morning James Sbeehnn, found guilty of conspiracy to falsify election returns, was summoned to bar and sentenced to four months' "hard labor" in the county workhouse. But beforo the appeal which he took had been refused by the higher court he had left Benton county for parts un known. John sought refuge In the cubbyhole that . Benton county provides for Us cuxtrict attorneys, wun a senso or re lief ho filed away his notes on tho Sheehan case In a cnblnot markod "Finished Business." Then he threw himself into a chair and began to tako stock. Sheohan's eyes haunted him. John wns a normal young man, and he was capable of knowing the Joy of a task well done. But not this sort of task! Ho could find no elation In a triumph won nt tho cost of direct personal mis ery to others. There was Slnyton, for example, a handsome, pleasant young man who looked the criminal not at all. ne had not had tho courage to stand trial, and ho had broken ball and fled, leaving a sick wife. Sho and the child born sinco the father's flight now lay together In a grave. Slayton had not dared to return. Perhaps he did not oven know of tho double tragedy. In his dreams John ofton saw Slayton's hunted face as It must now appoar. He becamo conscious that his head was aching, that ho was tired all over, every nerve In his body throbbing. For more than six months, evor slnco his election, ho had been working inces santly, feverishly toward this day. The release from strain allowed his mal treated, protesting body to bo heard. Ho got up and loft tho ofllco, as though fleeing from the problem. Ho laid a roundabout course away from Main street out Into tho country. Ho tramped determinedly along tho pike, filling his lungs with tho tonic air. It had been a good "growing sea son." nis way took him between fields of clean young corn and barley and oats nnd occasional cool, green wood lots. A farmer, driving a pair of heavy farm horses doing duty at the tongue of a squeaky spring wagon, rattled up behind him. "Howdy, John! Want a lift?" "Howdy, 'Rl! No, thank you. Just taking a littlo exercise and soaking in all this." Cranshawo reined in his team. John stopped. "Littlo mlto too smart for 'em today, weren't ye?" "They had been so bold, they mado it easier." Cranshawo nodded. "Bo smarter next tlmo, I reckon 'f wri give 'em a chanct 'F wo glvo 'em a chanct," ho repeated reflectively. "Us farmers, wo're feelln' purty good about these trials. Feel ilko wo didn't make any mlstako last fall." "Murchell says you forget," John smiled back. "Bo'n at ye a'ready, has ho?" Cran shawo asked shrewdly, "ne'll bo at yo harder, beforo yo'ro through. Yo got 'em scared. Mebby we'll ferglt an then mebby wo won't But I guess that's our lookout, not yours. So fur's yo'ro concornod, all yo got to do Is go ahead an' try to finish up tho Job ye've started. 'F we don't do our part, I guess wo won't havo nobody to blame hiit- nitronlvPS " (Continued in Next Friday's Issue,) TRAVERSE JUKY. First Week January 20, 1013. Bethany J. H. Smith. Berlin W. J.

Many people who have eczema and have tried repeatedly to bo cur ed without obtaining the desired re sult will be interested in the follow ing statement by Mrs. Jas. E. Blair, of Boston, Mass, " My daughter has suffered from birth (for twenty years) from ecze ma, and had tried many so-called cures and dozens of physicians' pre scriptions with little or no relief un til I was advised to have her try Bloodlne and Bloodino Ointment, and I am thankful to-day to bo able to Inform you that sho has been en tirely cured after using six bottles of Bloodlne and four boxes of Blood ino Ointment." What Mrs. Blair says is enough to convince the most skeptical that Bloodlne and Bloodlne Ointment used together will positively .cure any case of eczema. Bloodlne costs but fifty cents a bottle, six bottles for two dollars and a half. Bloodlne Liver Pills cure constipation. Mail orders filled by Bloodlne Corporation, Bos ton, Mass.
