CHAPTER XI.
With a Great Price.
OIIN was standing at the win
dow of his courthouse office.
The sense of loneliness was
upon him again. It may bo
that the sight of Katherine Hampden
sauntering down Main street in com
pany with a beflanneled summer gen
tleman had something to do with his
mood.
Then another vision was accorded
him a fat white horse lazily draw
ing an ancient top buggy In which sat
Senator Murchell, for all tho world a
prosperous farmer passing Into age
lmld peace and plenty.
A minute later came a knock at his
door. "Come!" he said.
The senator entered. "Afternoon,
John."
"What can I do for you?"
"Ilumph! Don't seem very glad to see
me. You might ask me to sit down."
John pointed to a chair. "Why hesi
tate? It's your courthouse, isn't it?"
"Understood you'd taken a mortgage
on it yourself lately." Murchell sat
down, looking genially at John.
"So you think I'm a bad man and a
disgrace to the state?" the senator In
quired at last.
"Well, Just about that," John said
quickly.
"Told Miss Roberta I'm a bad man,
didn't you?"
"I could have said that you are a
shameful force In politics; that you
have exploited a great party and tho
Ignorance of the people; that you have
built up a machine for the solo pur
pose of looting tho state; that you have
got and hold power by compelling pub
lic servants to use tho influence of
their office to perpetuato your machine
and by buying the votes of the cor
ruptible. There's probably a lot more,
if I only knew It. I've never heard
that you used your power for any good
thing. Without profession or business
you are n rich man. How?"
"Humph!" grunted Murchell, who
had listened without display of feeling.
"Doesn't mean much. You'd have hard
work proving any of it."
They relapsed into silence. John
looked out of the window, awaiting In
cold slleuco the senator's next words.
Murchell preserved his usual impas
slvo front. It was not tho first time
he had encountered tho Intolerance of
youth. But never before, save during
the Sheehan trial, had tho intolerance
pierced tho crust of tho man.
IIo broke the silence. "What do you
want to do?"
"A good many things you wouldn't
understand principally, I suppose, to
smash you and your organization.
That probably sounds funny to you."
Murchell did not laugh, no merely
felt pity for an unpractical young
dreamer.
"You can't smash tho organization."
"It must bo smashed, because It ex
ists to deprive tho peoplo of the right
of self government."
"X pretty phrase. It's common seuso
politics. Tho people don't want to gov
ern themselves they can't. They need
some ono to take tho burden from them.
How aro you going to smash us?"
"It may 6e simpler than you think,
Senator Murchell. When tho people
understand what you aro they'll smash
you."
Tho other smiled pityingly. "You
think because you've sent a few poor
devils to Jail you'ro n man of destiny,
don't you? You think I'm merely a
wicked old fellow who's got power
and Is using It for his own selfish end?.
ir l were Just that you couia Bniasu
me. But I'm more than that. I am
nn Institution a Dart of ft necessary
Institution, ouo that society, that prop
erty, that business, can't get along
without. You can smash William
Murchell that Is, put some ono in his
place. But you can't smash tho insti
tution. And you can't Judge a system
by Its Incidental errors."
John smiled, not very happily. "I've
heard that before. Tho weakness of
your argument Is that the errors seem
to be essential. Government Isn't, or
shouldn't be, merely a matter of force,
nor exist only as the servant of prop
erty, even If all you say Is true. And
I've got to go on."
"And' where'll you come out?" -"I?
You will try to break me. You
may succeed. But you will observe
"You've gone out of your way to at
tack mo. You're a fool."
that I have little to lose. If I had
much you woa't understand this 1
hope I'd lose it gladly."
"Did I say I was going to break
you?" Murchell demanded testily. "I
came here today to suggest that you
come out for Wash Jenkins' seat in
congress."
John's reply was almost bitter. "So
I have impressed you as a hypocrite
trying to get kicked up out of the way.
I repeat, I'm not for sale."
Murchell suddenly rose and put a
heavy hand on John's shoulder. "You
said you have little to lose. You have
much a future. You'vo gone out of
your way to attack me. You're a fool.
But I I like you, man. And I'd like
to save that future for you."
For n moment John stnred at hlra, in
credulous, no went to tho window, star
ing out wonderingly. IIo saw a strange
thing Jeremy Applegate stumping
across tho square and pausing under
the flag, looking up. The veteran's
hand rose, as though in salute; then,
nrrested midway, it fell limply, and Jer
emy marched on.
John pointed. "There, senator, is one
who entered the service of your Insti
tution. Now ho is a broken spirited
old man with Just enough soul left to
be ashamed. If I became part of your
machlno, in tho end I'd become like
that different in size perhaps, but tho
same in kind. I," ho said, quietly, "pre
fer your enmity; it's safer. You repre
sent an institution. I stand for a
principle, a fundamental principle. You
can smash John Dunmeade oh, very
easily, no doubt But, Senator Mur
chell, you can't smash tho principle!"
Tho senator did not often permit
himself the luxury of losing his tem
per, but he was exceedingly close to it
Just then. Tho friendship ho had of
fered to a young man whom ho liked
strangely well had been contemptuous
ly rejected, and the hurt was all the
deeper because he had broken the rule
of a lifetime to make the offer. He
carefully waited until the emotion had
subsided before speaking.
"It's a good deal simpler to state a
principle than to follow it in practice.
And you can't Judge politics by one
year's experience, nowover"
Ho stopped long enough to put on
his hat.
"You went out of your way to de
nounce me. You took a time when
I'm needing friends to do it, too. In
spite of that I made you an offer in
good faith. If there's anything In you
I'd havo given you the chance to
prove it.
"I," ho concluded, nnd ho spoke as of
some divine edict, fixed and immutable
"I rarely offer friendship to those
who fight me never twice."
He went out.
The East ridge colony was gone,
scattering Its charms broadcast from
Lakewood to Bar Harbor. Only tho
nampdens were left, and they wore
soon to depart, Katherine and her
mother to go abroad for tho latter's
health which, to bo sure, was so good
as to bo worth preserving. John nnd
nalg had arranged to make together
one September evening their farewell
pilgrimage to the ridge.
That evening John spent a great deal
of care over his toilet.
He drove to the home of Silas Illcks,
where nalg, wisely avoiding the hos
pitality of the hotel, had his rooms.
Somewhat to his dismay, be was in
formed thnt Halg hod discovered some
mysterious errand requiring his atten
tion, had departed a half hour earlier
and had left word that he would later
meet John at their Mecca,
"That's funny," muttered John as he
drove away. Jle strong suspected
(no vaimity of Ilnlgs crrana ana de
bated seriously tho advisability of turn
ing back nnd sending his farewells by
note, pleading as excuse for his non
appearance some unexpected business
matter. He solemnly assured himself
that ho was a fool, both for having
dallied with unhapplncss all summer
and for going now on n Journey that
could only intensify futile longings.
He sustained the indictment by con
tinuing his Journey. When ho found
Katherine. they strolled, Katherine
chatting unconcernedly, to a seat in a
retired corner of the grounds only tho
fact would not havo been significant to
John where sho had sat so long after
her talk with Warren Blake.
Sho leaned back in one end of the
seat. He sat at the other, as far away
from her as he could, half facing her.
She was not really beautiful her fea
tures were too firm for that yet even
another than John might have been
excused for thinking her so in the
softening light of tho rising moon.
Only her eyes, softly lustrous in the
pale light, marked her suppressed ex
citement "Do you realize," sho said, "this Is
tho first time we've been alone this
Bummer? You have really managed it
very awkwardly." As though sho had
not done all tho managing!
ne had nothing to say.
"Am I such an ogress, or have you
been afraid that I'd propose to you
again?"
"I haven't been fool enough to take
that seriously," ho said quickly. "And
I'm o.ii enough to know tho danger of
phi) ing with tire. At least," he added,
"I ought to have known it"
He could not help thinking of the
months to come when, with less en
grossing taskH to take his mind from
tho ache, he must renew the loneliness,
grown more poignant, of the last win
ter. He wondered now at his weak
ncss in letting himself, despite his
knowledge of her and of what she
meant to him, bo drawn again within
the circuit of her charm.
He became aware that she was
speaking, with that amazing courage
which was always hers.
"I am sorry," sho said. "But 1
haven't been fair to you. The things
father works for aro what appeal to
mo, not the things you dream of.
The prestige, the power, the know!
edge that I belong to tho men who are
conquering, not dreams or ideals, count
with me. It Isn't very pretty, is it.
from your point of view? But it's
true. I I could wish It were different.
Last summer it was different. I was
trying to decide what I wanted. I I
have always been more or less in love
with you ever since I can remember.
And I saw you were beginning to care.
I unsexed myself, I pursued, to learn
ivhether you were what I wanted. I
tried to believe, to make you believe.
that I could hnvo you and tho rest,
And I don't greatly blame myself for
lhat. Because I am a woman must 1
sit passively by and wait for bappl
less to come? I was drifting between
two idels, but struggling against it,
of course toward you. Do you know
it's your fault I didn't drift further?
You wouldn't take me. You made
mistake the night of that rally, beln
so finical in your notions of a poor
man's honor. You ought to have taken
me In your arms and made me go to
you. I should havo gone gladly
faithfully too. But you wouldn't."
Ho listened unresponsive to her
words that, halting sometimes, fell In
low, measured tones with a curious,
underlying regretfulness.
"Now It Is too late. I've had time to
think, to weigh you against tho other
things. Last winter taught me how
much they mean to me. And I find
you wanting. This summer has not
changed that. What you nsk costs too
much."
"I ask nothing."'
"True! I forget you ask nothing.
Last summer you need not havo asked.
"You can't make me want you enough.''
You will do mo tho credit to remember
that I ask you nothing that would cost
moro than you aro willing to pay."
"That Isn't true," ho said In hp Iden
roughness. "You It is why I'm a fool
for having come near you aro tempt
ing mo with every word you speak."
"Am I temptiug you, I wonder?"
ner volco becamo uncertain, "1 I

1 "i
The tremor in her volco set htm to
trembling. Then, without conscious
Intention, he was holding her in a
close, rough clasp nnd crying to her to
go with him. Sho did not resist, and
sho did not respond. Sho lay Inert in
his arms, passively suffering his hot
kisses, her eyes closed, her faco white.
"My dear, my dear! Don't you see?
You're fighting against tho thing that
mcanB your happiness. I'm not afraid
to ask now. for I know I can give you
far moro than you'll ever havo other
wise. What I want to do Isn't so ter
rible. It Is very simple. I can't see
why a few are so strongly against It
And It doesn't mean tho sacriflco you
think. Already it has brought victory
and the consideration of men you so
much desire. In the end, If we have
the spirit to fight and wait" His
Htnmmering phrases halted. He bo-
came aware of her closed eyes, her
unresponsiveness. Sho opened her
eyes and looked at him. His rough
clasp relaxed. Sho shook her head and
pushed herself away, leaning back in
tho seat.
"Ah," she murmured, "It is too late!
You can't make me want you enough."
"It Isn't too late If you care"
"Is caring everything? You know It
Isn't If it were you wouldn't make
conditions. You would use your brains,
your talents, to work out a career. You
would have accepted Senator Mur-
chell's offer"
"You think that?" ho cried. "Then
you don't care!"
"Ah," she said resentfully, "you can
say that? Do you think I could unsex
myself as I have done for you for a
fancy? I But you wouldn't under
stand. It is a very practical matter.
Life isn't all moonlight. It is all very
beautiful to give one's life to an ideal.
And you're very splendid now in tho
flush of your first victory. You would
be still splendid fighting a brave, los
ing fight while you were young, but
when you were n broken down, middle
aged failure, cast aside, a career out
of tho question, do you think that I
It wouldn't be romantic then. I'd be
nlways looking up at the men I once
knew, the men who were conquering,
doing big things, and I'd regret. And
I'd hate you then."
"It seems," he cried bitterly, "I in
spire little confidence. I'm told by
evury one before I havo tried long,
while I am still winning, that I'm
doomed to be a failure!"
"Now it is you who will not see." Sho
became moro gentle. "Do you think
I could care for a weakling? It Isn't

ago. Your dream will got you only
disappointment. Even the big men
who have done the. fine, good things for
this country used the forces they found
nt hand, compromised with evil to
create good. And their good stands."
Suddenly she leaned toward him and
placed a hand on his arm. "Look,
John!" She pointed to the north star
gleaming palely in the moonlight.
"That star is beautiful, but it Is very,
very high. Can't you understand? Ask
me to go with you to the mountain top
nnd I will go. I will help you climb,
but to that star and I can't."
She had shaken him, as sho could al
ways shake him, set him to question
ing the real value of the purpose that
through forces over which he had no
control, as it seemed, had grown until
It filled his life, excluding all else. Her
haud still rested on his arm, yet ho
found strength to answer:
"You've said it yourself caring isn't
everything."
ne got to his feet slowly. She, too,
rose. With a sudden Jealous contrae
tion of her heart sho realized how lit
tie of the grief sho had thought to see
was in his look. Strength wns there,
tho strength to suffer and to with
stand, and something else, almost a
glow, the reflection of n spirit handed
down to this man across tho genera
tions from an age of martyrs who
were glad to pay for their faith. With
a great price he was paying for his
faith, and it became tho moro precious
to him.
Sho found the need to Justify herself
beforo him.
"At least," sho said unsteadily, "you
will remember that I didn't pretend
until it was too lato for you to escape
me and then worry you into going my
way, as many women havo done. I'm
not quite so selfish as that Am I
wholly contemptible?"
no Judged her generously.
"You nren't contemptible. It is only
that you don't love. Lovo doesn't hag
glo or try to drag down. You havo
mistaken, honestly mistaken, some
thing else for it If you cared but
you don't You will find that out
soon."
For a llttlo sho looked at him un
waveringly. Then her strength seem
ed to wilt.
"You aro right, I suppose, nnd I have
missed a great deal. Goodby," aud
went in the house.
