Senator Murchell. leader of the state
machine, and Shoehan, local boas of New
Chelsea, offer the nomination for district
attorney to John Dunmeade. Dunmeade
to Independent In his political Ideas.
Dunmeado will accept the nomination.
His father, a partisan judge, congratu
lates him. His Aunt Roberta urges John
to call on Katherlno Hampden, daughter
of a capitalist.
Katherlno Hampden Is a worshiper of
success. She and John are friends. Jare
tay Applegate, a political dependent, cam
palsna for John and tho state ticket.
In Net? Cfielsea lives Warren Blake, a
model young bank cashier, connected with
Hampden In "high finance." They try
without success for John's aid.
The rottenness of polities In his state
and party as revealod In his campaign dls
SU Jcis. H nails upon Kathertne.
Katherine's peril In a runaway re
veals to her and John their unspoken
olve. John publicly "turns down"
tho machine of his party.
John will not compromise with his
conscience even for the sake of win
ning Katherlne, and the two part.
The course of his son Is disapproved by
Judge Dunmeade. John is elected and
puts Sheehan on trial for political corrup
tion. Sheehan Is convicted and flees. John
meets Halg, a novelist, who ts introduced
to him by Warren Blake.
Halg and John visit the Hampdcns.
Blake proposes to Katherlne and Is re
jected. He praises John to her. Murchell
has a visitor.
Tho visitor is Sackett, -head of the
Atlantic railroad, trying to keep the
Michigan out of the Steel City. He
wants Murchell to retire. The lat
ter cannot induce John to stop his
attacks on the machine. John and
Katherlne meet.
Sho still thinks John a follower of lm.
possible Ideals. He loses In his fight for
cleanliness in stato politics and fails ill,
Hurchell offers financial aid to the Dun
meades. John recovers and continues his fight,
aided by Haig. In the Steel City ho meets
Katherlne, who Is courted by Gregg, a
financially successful man.
Murchell loses control of tho machine to
Elierrod and retires nominally from poll
tics. Sherrod gets drunk, and a messen
ger is sent to Murchell for aid.
Sherrod has embezzled $000,000 of state
money. Murchell resumes control after
aiding his foe to conceal the crime and
mako reKutlon.
HAPTER XX.
"The Big Life.
W day John Dunmeade stood
beforo the people of his state
a lonely figure, almost for
gotten amid the tumult of
discussion that raged over tho respec
tive merits of Sherrod and Jenkins.
On the next a few heads turned ques-
tionlngly toward him, a few newspa
pers began darlily to hint that his can
didacy might be more formidable than
had been supposed. Tho exigencies
of the party case. It seemed, demand
ed that Jerry Brent be met with a
candidate of equal or greater fitness,
and neither Jenkins nor Sherrod was
entirely palatable to the people. Other
molders of opinion followed suit. Soon
a small host of them were shrieking
that John Dunmeado must bo nomi
nated. The times required It, tho peo
ple demanded it, no one else could
beat Jerry Brent In short, if these
members of tho press were to bo be
lieved, tho party was in danger of de
feat and had experienced a timely
conviction of sin. Within a few days
half tho newspapers of tho state were
loudly trumpeting that Dunmeade's
cervices to his party must bo reward
ed; tho other half laboriously denying
that service had been rendered and
eneerlngly pointing to tho inte pri
maries In Benton county as ovldenco
of his popular weakness.
"Nil ohff suspected a prompter. Tho
people, so Insistently told that they
demanded tho choice of the young re
former, began to believe it. A surpris
ing number suddenly discovered that
they "had always boon for Dunmeado
anyway;" they were exceedingly proud
of tho fact. The thing was contagious.
Gradual, but swift as the rising Chi
nook, It swept over the state, a flood
of enthusiasm. Part of it was genu
ine, Far down In their hearts, be
neath tho calloused crust, the moral
sluggishness that hated change, lay n
germinating chic consciousness Im
planted by tho very man who had be
come a hero overnight. Tho politi
cians nil but a few were astounded.
Supporters of Jenkins nnd Sherrod
alike wero profoundly alarmed..
Two days beforo tho convention tho
lion. G, Washington Jenkins bowed
to tho storm.
"I yield," bo said, "to a spontaneous
demand of tho people."
"Sentiment," declared Murchell sol
emnly, "has crystallized. Dunmeade's
tho man." IIo explained that this de
cision had been reached by him in
view of tho evident' wish of tho peo
ple, nnd ho ndded truthfully that bo
had not seen nor discussed tho ap
proaching convention with John Dun
meade. Tho Murchell men In tho or
umlzatlon whaoced with. jJeUcht.
run nay before tne cuTS" -delegates
began to gather nt tho cap
ital. In parlor A of tho Stato hotel sat
Murchell nnd In parlor B of tho Ixich
Invar sat Sherrod. playing against each
other for votes. Between them flut
tered the delegates nnd .those who had
delegates to sell, like hungry summer
flics. But they found-tbe little fellows
at least-no honey pot at Murchell's
end; no scandal must mar the nomina
tion of Dunmeado. (As for the. cap
tains of tons nnd captains of hundreds,
that Is nnother matter. Into which wo
mny not intrude.)
In crowded streets and sweltering,
smoke clouded lobbies exvltemcnt ran
high. The Dunmeade rallying ground,
tho only quiet snot in the capital, con
trasted significantly with the nervous
ntmosphcre of the Sherrod headquar
ters. Such contentment with thiyit na
tion could not be feigned! It was In
fectious; It spread out among the dele
gates who had pledged themselves to
vote for Dunmeade and nullified the
trantlc efforts of Parrott (nominally
managing Sherrod's campaign) to start
a stampede; It kept tho neutrals waver
ing. And over the scene of conflict hov
ered a formless one. unseen, unheard,
unfelt, ns spirits nlwnys are. waiting
but for the crucial moment to swoop
flown nnd decide the issue.
Came a lull In tho battle, an hour to
ward morning, when the delegates had
retired to allotted cots or halves of
oeds or, more often, to woo fortune
over some table of chance, when the
reeking lobbies were depopulated and
tho headquarters of the generals were
deserted by all but their respective
staffs and the yawnluc reporters.
rrsCre"''wa's" fr Enact"" on" Miirchell's
door nnd Greene, leader In Plumvllle,
admitted a messenger, him who once
before had lured Murchell from his re
treat on an errand, if not of mercy, nt
least of salvation. Paine went to him
nd whispered his message. Murchell
Ihook his head.
"Tell him," he said aloud, "if he
wants to see me he'll have to come
nere."
Paine whispered a protest.
"Tell him," Murchell cut him short,
"John Heath will meet him here."
The messenger started, looked hastily
around at tho others and grinned In
sickly fashion. But he departed im
mediately, leaving the men in the room
to wonder what charm lay in the unfa
miliar name of John Heath.
In less than five minutes, rumor out
running the fact, the hotel was alive.
Sherrod had asked for a conference
with Murchell.
Murchell men smiled triumphantly
when they saw Parrott and Sherrod,
wearing nn air of confidence not whol
ly convincing emerge from the eleva
tor and make their way along the cor
ridor to parlor A.
Sherrod and Parrott entered, care
fully closing the door behind them to
the Intense disappointment of the dele
gates outside. Parrott went jauntily
up to Murchell and shook hands.
"Well," he grinned, "we've been hav
ing a fine little shindy, eh?" This for
tho reporters.
"Glad,"' grunted Murchell, "you're
etijojing it." There was a laugh, in
which Parrott did not join.
The senator waved his hand, and all
but Greene left tho room, reluctant,
but obedient.
"See here." said Sherrod. "Can't wo
get together? You've got to admit that
we've got you beaten."
"If you think the delegates you've
been buying will stick you're mistaken,
Sherrod. I've sold you more than fifty
myself."
"I don't believe it," snnpped Sherrod.
"Quit bluffing and get down to cases.
You know you can't beat us in the
convention. You aren't trying to. You
started all this racket over Dunmeade
just to work up a sentiment that will
make it harder for mo to beat Brent.
You're so anxious to get even," he ex
claimed bitterly, "that you don't see
you're in dangef of stirring up a revo
lution. AVhat will you take to quit?"
"The revolution has started, Sherrod.
And you'll never beat Brent."
"Won't I? We'll attend to that when
the time comes."
"Because," Murchell continued calm
ly, "you won't bo nominated." He
turned to tho governor. "Parrott, how
much have you paid Sherrod to support
you .for senator?"
"Nothing." lied Parrott, albeit with
evident uneasiness.
"Then you're lucky," Murchell com
mented. "Dan Hasland paid him
$200,000 for tho same promise."
"That's a lie," Sherrod declared
hotly.
"Greene," commanded Murchell,
"call Hasland In, will you? He's In
tho worn next to mine. That is, If
Parrott nnd Sherrod think it neces
sary?" no turned inquiringly toward
them.
"I guess," Sherrod growled, "Parrott
knows I'll not go back on him."
"Does he?" Murchell Inquired dryly.
"Look nt him!"
And, Indeed, Parrott's face just then
showed anything but implicit coufi
denco In the good faith of his leader.
"You needn't go, Greene. And,"
Murchell ndded, "I may annouueo right
hero that Hasland will succeed mo as
senator,"
"Doesn't that depend," sneered Sher
rod, "on who controls the legislature?"
"We'll control It."
Greeno could havo hugged himself
with delight as ho saw Parrott visibly
perturbed and Sherrod struggling to
repress tho rising, passionate hato and
fear of the man beforo him. Greeno
had been a gambler and ho felt a pro
found reverence for tho man whose
nervo In so big a game showed no
tremor.
A long pauso was broken by Par
rott anxiously, "Senator, what have
you got up your sleeve?"
'berjod'B wJthdrwa.,"
"Who is going to make me with
draw?" Sherrod sneered again.
"Didn't Paine give you my message?
John Heath!"
"Who," demanded Tarrott, "is John
Heath?"
Murchell pointed to Sherrod's face,
which had suddenly turned pale. "He
Is a gentleman of whom Sherrod Is
very much afraid. Parrott, did you
ever hear why I came to tho capital
last March? I came because I heard
Sherrod here was drunk and threaten
ing to throw himself Into tho river. I
found out why ho had embezzled
$000,000 of stnto moneys. We fixed
the matter up temporarily." He
paused, straightened up in his chair.
eyed Sherrod for ji moment nnd went
on quietly: "If your name goes before
the convention. I will take tho floor
nnd tell all about that transaction. I
don't think you will bo nominated.
And, If you are. I'm quite sure you
won't bo elected. Do you withdraw?"
"I do not!"
"Very well." Murchell rose to Indl-
rate that the conference was at an end.
"Come on. Pnrrott." Sherrod wheel
ed and marched toward the door. But
Pnrrott did not follow. Instead, he
dropped weakly Into a chair, his glance
shifting uncertainly from Murchell to
the departing Sherrod and back again.
Sherrod's hand was nlready on the
doorknob when he noticed Parrott's
refection. He stopped, looking back.
"Come along," ho repeated impa-
Sently.
"I think," said Parrott slowly, "I'll
stay here. I've had one gold brick too
many."
"What!" Sherrod turned sharply and
strode over to the vacillating governor.
"You booby! Scared by a cheap bluff
like that! Do you think he means it?
He daren't use It. nere, I'll prove It to
you." Ho whirled to face Murchell.
pointing. "There is the door, Bill
Murchell, and on tho other side of It a
half dozen reporters. Don't wait for
the convention. Call 'em In. Make
good your bluff, If you dare!"
For a moment tho senator looked In
tently at the ugly, passionate face.
"Call them in, Greene," ho said
quietly.
Greene went to the door, opened It
and beckoned to tho reporters. They
filed into the parlor promptly. Murchell
turned to them. 1
"Gentlemen, I wnnt'to dictate a state
ment." Notebooks were flashed forth
and pencils poised. But Murchell did
not continue, and the reporters did not
look nt him. Their eyes were riveted
on Sherrod. upon whose face had fallen
a look of unbelieving wonderment. The
"Mako good your bluff if you dare."
wonderment became fear. Beads of
sweat stood out on his forehead. He
shook visibly. The defiant attitude sud
denly dissolved.
"Perhaps," said Murchell grimly,
"Mr. Sherrod would prefer to make
this statement himself."
There was an instant of painful si
lence. Sherrod's mouth worked ns
though he were trying to speak. But
no sound fell.
Parrott came to his relief. "Gentle
men," ho said solemnly, "Mr. Sherrod
has withdrawn his candidacy."
"In favor of Dunmeade," supple
mented Greene.
Tho reporters looked inquiringly nt
Senator Murchell.
Ho nodded. "That's tho statement."
Without a single backward glanco
ho went out of the room. Greene and
tho reporters followed him, leaving
Sherrod and Parrott alone to get what
comfort they could out of their plight
and to scttlo certain accounts, a sceno
upon which we considerately draw tho
curtain.
A man around whom a battle had
been fought leaned on a rail fence,
gazing off nt tho undulating lino where
tho azuro of sky curved down to meet
tho green of hills. He had been there
most of tho afternoon, In flight from
tho kindly but obtruslvo interest of
his neighbors.
A stato was' acclaiming him, and ho
was not uplifted, ne had read tho
news of the morning nnd knew that at
that very hour soveral hundred of his
fellow citizens In convention assem
bled wero naming him to a high honor,
nnd ho took no joy In It For tho ac
clamation was but the schooled chorus
of a tractable stago mob. And the
victory was not for ',Ai, nor for tho
principle ho had , red, but for a man
whom he had condemned, for an In
slUutiouefwLJoliaiKrfvaK. ,Ho
was big enough or sman euoogn u
you prefer to resent being catapulted
Into power by tho strength of nnothcr's
arm, and he was honest enough to
hate tho means ho knew must have
been used. IIo could not exult The
advancement had come too late. The
flory eagerness of youth was gone.
Ho longed hot for a sword, but for
peace the peace of tho hills, of the
growing things, of the commonplace
from which once he had fled.
A sound, strange for that hour and
place, slowly pierced hlsabstractlon.
He raised his head, startled, listening.
It was the courthouse bell. Another
joined In, and another, unfll all the
bells of the town were ringing. The
Iron choral was for hlral
He walked slowly on.
As he rounded the foot of the knob,
he heard another sound rising to min
gle with tho clamor of the bells
cheering voices. He hnd n strong de
sire to turn back rfhd flee to some hid
ing plnca In tho hills, but ho forced
himself to march forward.
At the northernmost edge of the
fwn lie perceived a rapidly limping
riguro. It was Jeremy Applegate.
"Jleard you came out this way."
Jeremy jjnsped. "an' I wanted to be
first to tell you. Nominated by accla
mation at 3;-15 this afternoon! 1 '
hain't felt so good sluce Appomattox."
John, beholding the tears shining In
honest Jeremy's eyes, felt the moisture
rise to his own. His heart leaped
Bharply; It was something to receive,
even If one has not earned, such
loyalty!
Down Main street camo a team
drawing a double seated spring wagon.
From the wngon descended a silent
tilo whoso handclasp eloquently told
what awkward lips could not phrase.
"Druv Into town to git 'the news of
the convention," 'Rl explained. "They
said ye'd gone out the pike, so wo
druv out to fetch ye In, They're wait-'
In' for ye, consldcr'blo excited."
"They've found out," said Dan Cris
well dryly, "all at oncet that ye're a
great man."
" 'Low I damned the Amurrlcan peo
ple a mite too soon," confessed Sykes,
which cntised Cranshawe and Crlswell
to laugh.
"Git in," commanded 'Ri. "Come
right along, Jeremy."
They all climbed Into the wagon,
John- with lips compressed ns if he
faccfl an ordeal. And Indeed lie did.
'Ill was quick to perceive what Jeremy
in the hysteria of his joy had over
looked. Ills great, hairy hand fel on
John's knee in a tight grip.
"I want to say something while I got
the chancet. I guess there's more to
this than appears to be. But I have
faith in ye, John Dunmeado. I have
faith that yo'll govern this stato In
tho fear of God and the love of your
fellow men."
"Whatever yo do," supplemented
Sykes, "I'll believe thnt."
"An' so long as we got faith In ye
ye needn't lose faith In yourself," Crls
well concluded.
John did not answer, ne wns past
speaking just then and later when his
townsfolk acclaimed him.
At home took place a wonder. Judge
Dunmeade, almost forgetting the judi
cial dignity, slapped John on the back
and exclaimed: "My son, this is a hap
py hour. I always know you would
make your mark."
At which Miss Roberta sniffed. But
when she tried to convey her felicita
tions hor tongue refused the unaccus
tomed office, and sho broke away to
prepare a supper that should do justice
to tho occasion.
That evening Benton county made
holiday, with torches and bonfires and
fireworks. John made a speech at his
home not much of n speech, It is true,
but his audience was not hypercritical.
It lasted just three minutes. Then tho
band began to play "America." For a
little a deep hush fell. Then some one
later identified as a one legged, hys
terically happy old soldier began to
slngin a cracked, quavering voice.
Something that passed beyond mere
jubllntlon' stirred. With one accord the
crowd lifted up its voice and snug,
"My country, 'tis of thee"
Tho solemn, stately measures died
away. A young woman under a tree at
the edge of tho crowd discovered un
ashamed tears coursing down her
cheeks. A last cheer was given, and
tho famous celebration passed into
history.
At his window John Dunmeade look
ed with troubled eyes up Into the st
lent, stnrry night. It was ungenerolis
perhaps, but he could not help thinking
of the lean years of defeat and discour
ngement. And ho wondered. Was the
hymn still ringing In his ears the voice
of an abiding passion or hysteria?
