"By Alwyn Bennett!" snapped the
judge. "Outrageously"—
"Impossible!" exclaimed Dallas..
"There must be a mistake somewhere.
Mr. Bennett is too well bred to insult
auy man, much less a man so much
older than"—
"A gentleman, is he? I should not
have believed it. he has insulted mo
most"—
"Pus not surprised," observed Wain-
wright.
"I tun," announced Dc'
"Naturally," sneered v eawright. "If
you can remain on spe '.i• ing terms with
him after his abominable treatment of
me you can easily overlook any other
brutality of his."
"Tell us about it, judge," interposed
Gibbs, seeking to avert any further
clash between uncle and niece.
"i went to him," began Newman,
"bearing a request from—from"—
The judge paused. It was not whol-
ly easy to present matters to this hon-
est eyed young girl in such a way as
to bring her in his way 'of thinking.
But Wainwright felt no difficulty. His
shrewd brain caught at a means of
turning the affair to account.
"You see, Dallas," the financier broke
in, with a warning glance to Newman,
"1 begged the judge to intercede for
we with Bennett, to ask him to bury
the hatchet and let us be friends again
tor the sake of old times. I thought
Judge Newman's age and his high of -
flee would compel a certain respect
even with a man of Bennett's charac-
ter. But i was wrong, and I am sorry,
judge, for the unjust humiliation I
.2a used you."
"I don't understand," said Dallas,
looking in bewilderment from one to
the other. "Judge, my uncle sent you
to make overtures of peace? And Mr.
Bennett refused to"—
"He not only refused, but called I1r.
Wainwright a highwayman and"—
"But why?" demanded Dallas.
"He pretended to misunderstand what
I said about the conditions."
"Oh, it was a conditional offer, then?
I thought"—
"Certainly there were conditions,"
cut in Wainwright, again coming to
the emissary's rescue. "I asked that
he take a position of neutrality in re-
gard to this Borough bill. Simply nen-
tral, mina you. Not to change his atti-
tude in its favor, or"—
"That was a splendidly fair offer,"
cried Gibbs enthusiastically.
"So it seemed to me," *agreed New-
man, "but Bennett would not listen
when I tried to point out his proper
line of, duty. He called me a go-be-
tween and"—
"Even after you told him we were
granting practically all the concessions sorry,, but it is my duty."

"Nonsense!" exclaimed Dallas. "What regarded the measure, so why go on
ulterior motive could he have?"
"That is more than I know posiQve-
ly," returned the judge' mysteriously.
"But I do," declared Wainwright,
pointing at Dallas. "There are the rea-
sons!"
"I?" exclaimed Dallas, incredulous.
"Explain, please."
"Willingly," replied her uncle, "If
you'll give me a fair hearing. Bennett
is in love with
you. He knows
Gibbs also wish-
es to marry you.
He knows, too,
that Gibbs' for-
tune depends on
the success of
the Borough
franchise. If the
bill is beaten,
Gibbs will be
practically ruin-
ed and thus in
aal no position to

- known all along
of this reason
•:surely should be no hesitation in ask -
Ong anything in my power to grant."
Thus emboldened Newman blurted
out:
"I—we—that is, seems to me you
'have been a little hard upon this Bor-
•ough franchise bill, if you don't mind
my saying so, Bennett. Couldn't you
let up on them now?"
"Why, 'no, judge, I can't," replied
Bennett, still failing to connect New-
man with the Wainwright-Ilorrigan
clique and attributing the judge's in-
terest in the matter to an amateur's
love of dabbling in politics. "I can't
let up on that fight," he continued. "All
perpetual franchises are wrong, and
:this particular franchise bill is rotten
to the core. In sheer justice to my oath
of office I must fight it"
"My boy," said the judge In a fa-
therly manner that he had often found
successful in argument, "I was in poli-
tics long before you were born, and I'm
speaking for your own good when I
say I deeply regret the stand you've
taken in this matter You objected to
the bill in its original form. Almost
• every change you demanded has been
made in it. As the gentlemen who
asked me to speak to you said"—
He checked himself a minute too
late. The narrowing of Bennett's eyes
.and the vanishing of the friendly light
in the young man's face warned New-
Pman he had made a fatal error.
"So you come to me as an emissary,
.not as ,a friend," said Bennett slowly,
''and the 'gentlemen' you come from"—
"Are the men who represent all that
,can make or break your career—capital
Pond political organization."
"In other words, Wainwright and
}Horrigan?"
"Yes. All they ask is that you re-
main neutral; that you"—
! "That I look the other way while
they rob the city?"
' "1 am an old. man, Bennett," evaded
the judge, trying another tack, "and
rte seen one rash step wreck many a
bright career, just as this will wreck
,yours. Never antagonize wealth and
•the organization. The public for whom
•you sacrifice yourself will forget you
+in a month. Capital and politics never
-forget."
"I am not catering to the public. I
ram acting as my own conscience"—
"But this is stubbornness, not con-
science. All you have to do is to re-
main neutral. If you do this I am
• authorized to promise you—now, listen
—to promise you the nomination for
governor when your term as"—
"That's the bait, is it?" cried Alwyn
angrily. "If • I consent to betray my
trust I'll get the governorship. The
,bribe is golden, and I don't wonder at
• Horrigan for offering it. The only
:thing that surprises me is that he
should have chosen such a man as yon
-'for his lackey and go-between."
" `Lackey!' 'Bribe!' 'Go-between!"'
echoed the judge in real indignation.
"How dare you, sir? This"—
"Isn't it a bribe," insisted Alwyn,
"and weren't you the man chosen to
offer it? It will do you no good to
'bluster or grow indignant, In vonr
heart you know the words I used were
deserved. The governorship offer was
a bribe, pure and simple, and worthy
the modern highwaymen who made it,
but that you, a judge—a former friend
of my own blameless father—that you
should come to me on such a vile er-
rand turns me sick. Heaven help
j s-
tice and right when our judges cbe
controlled by a political boss and a
roll of bills! That's a111 I don't care
to go further into the subject!"
Bennett walked away, leaving the lit-
• tie judge to stare after him, pink with
wrath, speechless with amazement. In
all his sixty years no 'nen had thus
laid bare to Newman his own heart,
stripped of its garments of respecta'
Witty and self deception. And, as usu-
al in such cases, now that the truth
had been driven home to him, Newman
wrathfully denounced it. even to him•
self, as a lie.

"Alwyn!" exclaimed Dallas in relief.
"I'm so glad you came here just when

"Clear what up?" queried Bennett,

Her voice was almost tremulous In
Its eager, confident appeal, but Bennett
forced himself to answer:
"Yes; it is true, and I knew it."
The eager glow died from her eyes,
leaving a look of dawning horror.
"And, knowing this—knowing Perry,

action you still insist on"—

him.

lie saw the future stretching out be-
fore him dreary and barren as a rainy
sea.
Through all of his months of battling
he had ever struggled forward through
increasing difficulties toward one bright
goal—Dallas' love. Aud now that love
was snatched from his grasp, through
no fault of bis own, and bestowed on a
man unworthy to kiss the hem of her
garment.
At each step in the long climb Alwyn
had asked himself, "Would she ap-
prove?" And now through trying to
be worthy that approval be had for-
ever Lost it, for D.ellas, he knew, had
not only rejected him and engaged her-
self to Gibbs, but had done so with the
belief that Bennett was a heartless, un-
scrupulous intriguer, undeserving of a
good woman's regard.
A rap at the door aroused Bennett
from bis bitter thoughts. Fle lifted his
head wearily and gave tvotd to enter.
A drowsy servant came in with a card.
"He says it's important business, sir,"
said the footman. "And he wishes to
see yon at once; if possible."
"Show him up," answered Bennett,
dropping his voice so as not to disturb
his mother. who slept on the same
door. 'I will see bins here."
A minute later Horrigan's bulky form
blocked the threshold.:
"Queer time of night for a call," he
observed casually, as he entered unin-
vited, closed the door behind him and
took a chair, "but my business
wouldn't wait."
-'!'hen state it as briefly as you can,"
directed Bennett, making no move to
rise or welcome bis unbidden guest.
"It is very late, and I am tired."
"I've come to see you about our Bor-
ough bill."
•'So I supposed."
"You won't call off your fight against
us?"
"That question is hardly worth an-
swering. No."
"I thought not. Well, Mr. Alwyn
Bennett, I've got you! I've got youl
Do you understand me?"
"Perfectly. Is that all?"
"No, it ain't all," mimicked the boss.
"And I'm in earnest. I've got you

"That doesn't interest me. If you've

"But I have,", chuckled Horrigan.

It grated on Bennett that his dead
father's honored name should be spo-
ken by this low politician, but before
be could protest more forcibly Horri-
gan went on:
"What d'you think if I said your fa-
ther was a grafter—one of the worst
of his time?"
"I'd say you lied," answered Bennett
calmly, "and I'd drive the foul lie
down your throat with my fist. You'll
have to think of some better scheme
than that."
"Do you thin, I'd be idiot enough to
come here with the story if I didn't
have full proof of it?" asked Horrigan
in contempt.
And, despite himself, Alwyn saw the
map was speaking what he believed to
be the truth, He paused in his impul-
sive forward move, reseated himself
and asked coldly:
-What so called 'proofs' have you
been fooled by your heelers into think-

like you cannot defile it. Go on. I'll

"Very good," bald Horrigan, quite
tinmoved. "I'll Make it as short its I

of the organisation, and his firm got

"I won't discuss this with you, Mr.
Wainwright," interrupted Bennett.
"We already understand one another,
you and I,"
"My uncle says," pursued Dallas,
"that you made your broker secretly
sell Borough stock short, knowing the
deal would enrich you. Won't you
even deny this?"
"You realize what all this foolish
stubbornness Must mean to me—to all

"What do 1 care?" roared Horrigan
in triumph. "Let everybody hear!

.that' Horrigan had in no way exag-
gerated the document's contents. He
knew, too, that the firm of engineers
who had drawn up the report were
the foremost of their sort and above all
shadow of suspicion.
Little by little the numbness lifted
from his brain, and in its place crept a
horrible convtctiop of the truth. His
father—the gallant young soldier who
had won a nation's applause iia the
civil war—the P man who, poor and un-
aided, had built up a fortune against
keenest competition and had earned a
repute for sterling probity which had
ever been the delight and model of his
son—this was the man whom a low
blackguard like Horrigan now had the
right to revile—a man apparently no
better than the boss himself—than any
dishonest heeler in the organization!
And, as if it were 'not enough that
the idol of a lifetime were hurled,
crushed and defiled, from its bright
pedestal, the family name must next
be dragged through the mire of polit-
ical filth and ill repute and the dead
man's memory forever blasted. Either
that or his son must withdraw from
the gallant fight he was waging against
civic corruption, for that Horrigan
would carry out his threat and blazon
forth to the world the story and proofs
of the elder Bennett's shame Alwyn
had no doubt. With all his faults the
boss was a man of his word.
"Stop your fight against us," Horrt-
gan had said, "and the report is
burned."
Yes, the boss was a man of his *ord.
Even Bennett admitted that. He would
fulfill his promise In either event.
Listlessly Alwyn began to review
