CHAPTER XLVH
Those gray Blits of eyes were
Tom Benton's; there was no mis
taking them. Tony Harrison had
Been them, nine years beTore,
glaring at the lifeless form of a
man in a little saloon in Caldwell,
and he had not. forgotten
them. ...
And now he could hear Benton's
voice come faintly through the
glass, high-pitched, threatening, as
he glared at Morrison In the
chair: "All right; I'll give you one
more chance to open it. I'll count
ten. Then " and he deliberately
broke off and waved the revolver
in his hand in a significant ges
ture. Outside, Tony Harrison slowly
raised his own guii and leveled It.
f But Benton presented a bad tar
get. There was, to begin with, the
barred window between them. And
Benton was fairly well shielded
from an outside foe, partly by his
own companion, partly by Morri
son, i
The young man thought quickly, j
There was small likelihood, true,
of a bullet's being deflected by
-the window pane still, there re
mained the possibility. And if he
should hit Benton, Morrison might
be killed as a result, either by the
other man or by Benton's own con
vulsive finger pressure.
If Morrison held out lu his
dogged determination not to opon
tiie safe, he would have to fire. If
not, he could wait outside for tho
pair to gather their loot and sur
prise them' as they left.
He heard Benton counting and
held bis breath, his fhiser tighten
ing on the trigger of the slender
wcauon in his hand: "Four . . .
five ... six . . ." Benton's eyes J
narrowed to mere cracks. They
gleamed viciously. Suddenly Mor
' . rison nodded and gave up.
A, smile contorted the scdr
twlated face of the man in front
of him. "Come to your senses, did
you? Now be quick about it.
We're done fooling with you."
From his post at the window,
Harrison could see the bank
cashier, his face bloodless, kneel j
beside the -safe and twirl the
knob. The heavy door swung open
and Benton shoved him roughly
out of the way and motioned for
the man with, the hag tp get busy.
Ignoring the silver, the man
swejjt neat littlo stacks of cur
rency into the bag while Benton
kept his six-gun trained on Morri
son. The first few pattering drops
of rain, heralds of the coming
downpour, fell against the face of
the watcher outside and a minute
later the man beside the safe
straightened up with a nod. The
Job. was done. ; : .
'1 ought to plug you anyway,"
Benton said savagely to Morrison,
"for' boing bo damn stuhborn.
God " but his companion with a
sudden exclamatlou , touched., his
arm and gestured nervously
toward the door. "Let him he,
Tom;- wo better hurry.'
Benton . reluctantly backed
away. He growled something at
the cashier that Harrison could
not hear and swung suddenly
around.
The man, outside breathed a
sigh of relief and glided back Into
the Bhadows beside the horses.
The man lie- had struck over the
head still lay like a felled tree,
but he bent swiftly downward and
reassured himself with another
brief glance at his face. Then, pull-1
lng his hat down over his eyes,
he took a position close to the !
horses and waited.-
The door of the bank swung1
open and two figures ran toward
him In the darkness. "All right,"
came Benton's voice. "Let's get
away." .
Harrison's eyes narrowed,
straining in the dark. His jaw
tightened. A moment now and
Before him loomed two hulky
shapes. "I've still got a good mind
to kill that damn cashier," Ben
ton growled. "Everything all right,
Pete?"
"Everythlngstops right here,
Benton," Tony said calmly. "You
and your friend reach up high."
A voice gasped: "Something
wronp, Tom!" and the two dim
figures paused in their advance.
"What tho hell!" Benton rapped
out. "Ain't that you, Pete f
What"
"No, this Isn't Pete," Harrison
said coolly. "This Is a reception
coniTflttee here to give you a wel
coin ! Benton, you're wanted for
murder" he moved intuitively to
one i-ide "and a few other things.

panic.
"You asked for it, Benton,"
Tony said deliberately and fired.
He threw himself to the ground,
prone, and fired again and heard
Benton groan.
"Now, then," said Harrison, ad
dressing himself to Benton s com
panion, "if you want the same

Light sprang suddenly from the
side window of the bank, and in
the faint illumination he saw Ben

arms uplifted in a downpour of
raki.
now, l a call that real sens
Ible," Tony drawled. He raised j
his voice and called, "Morrison!
There was an answering cry
from the bank and Morrison camo
running.
"Just relievo that gent of bis
hardware," Tony ordered. "There's
something here T want to look at."
He approached the lalleu teu
ton warily, feeling first for the
man's hands. Then he felt a sud
den nausea and spoke once more
to the surprised bank cashier.
"You'd better look at him, Morri
son; I've changed my mind."
Two hours later he eat in the
marshal's office, surrounded by
an excited group of Guthrie citi
zens. In a corner of the room two
men in manacles gazed about
them with sullen eyes, and in the
next room something lay on the
floor covered with a blanket.
"He saved the bank more than
$12,000," Morrison was saying. "It
was the neatest thing you ever
saw. Took care of three of them
single-handed. Harrison," - he
smiled, "any lime you need a loan
at the bank I'll see that you get
It."
"Thanks," said Tony. "And you
gentlemen ought to know," he
said, sweeping the room with his
gaze, "just what kind of a watch
dog you've got sitting ou your
money in the bank. By golly, I
thought for. a while ho never
would open that safe." '
"Harrison won't be needln' any
loans for some time," observed
tne marshal. "There's a reward of
$2500 for Benton's capture, dead
or alive. Personally, I prefer him
the way ho is dead."
"I'm not taking any reward,"
Denton's slayor announced. "I'm
turning it over to the ' city of
Guthrie for a police fund. As a
business man," he added, smiling,
"I'm looking for all the protection
the law can give us. . . . Benton
killed my father and I don't want
anything for squaring' the ac
count.". The marshal took a cnew of to
bacco and grinned. "I'm not goin'
to stand in your way, Harrison."
He let go with scientific accuracy
at the cuspidor. "What I want to
know is how you got suspicious of
this gent Forbes. Was 1 blind or
something?"- ' ' .- .
"I don't know now ho got his
scar," Tony replied, "but that and
his slick hair and his goatee, and
cute Utile mustache threw me off
the track for a while. I hud the
notion all along that I knew him.
It was his eyes. Marshal. He
couldn't disguise them. It came to
me all of a sudden whilo 1 was
pniylng poker."
"Sudden is rlsht," Fred Porkins
put In. ''He got up and left four
kings."
Harrison's eyes clouded for a
brief moment. He got. up and
stretched, saying. "Well, Marshal,
take good care of these boys," and
jerked a thumb toward tho men in
manacles. "I'm going to get some
sleep," he announced.
"And you're entitled to It," Fred
Perkins told him. "I'll walk aloug
with you."
They walked together for some
time without speech. "Benton,"
Tony Harrison said presently,
"was in Chicago for a while. That
much of his story was true. One
of his friends told me that ho
didn't come back to tho territory
till the opening. I forgot to ask
him how Kenton got the scar, but
It doesn't make : any difference;
It's all over now. . . . Did I tell
you that I got six contracts today
for timber? We're going to be
busier than all getout this . fall,
but meantime I'm planning on a
Utile vacation."
Ho went to bed that night with
the conviction that the time had
come for him to ride up to. the
Bar K and soo Joe Craig.
The next morning there was a
letter for him at the postotflce
and he smiled at the .coincidence,
for Pawnee Bill had written: "If
yon haven't been up to the Bur K

yourself. I've felt real mean about

Tony Harrison smiled. "Maybe,"
no said, and directed his steps to
wards the livery stable. "Chero

he rode along he thought of
many things; ths landscape hau
taken on a familiar aspect and
here and there were stretches that
were recognizable . as scenes of
earlier wanderings. "It begins to
look like home, Cherokee. Is that
what you're trying to tell me?"4
His gate took in the- vista of
green and rolling land and suddea
ly he was swept by a wistful re
gret that he would not behold that
land many more times in IU
present virgin state. Two year,
or three, or four, and a mighty
avalanche of humanity would
sweep across the Cherokke Strip
just as he had seen it sweep across
Oklahoma in the fierce rush of
men for homes that were free.

to know that Benton won't bother
anybody any more. Am I right,
Cherokee?"
The stallion flung tin his head
and lengthened his strides. "Im
patient, now" that we're almost
there, aren't you?" said Tony Har
rison. "Me, now. I feel Just the
opposite. The closer I coma the
more nervous I get I'd sure bo
upset If Joe Craig decided he was
through with me." ... .
The-sun slowly swung down tn.
ward the point where earth an.l
sky were joined. From a glaring
yellow sphere it had turned into a
oan or orange and Tonv Harrison
faced It as he rode.
Presently he cut awav from tho
Salt Fork and swung north up a
gentle rise. Tho horse went up
with never a slackening of his
pace, but once at the top Tons
checked him and faced hiin around.
I want to take n good look ft-nm

"Doggone It, I'm going to kick my

and let it dangle carelessly from

a time from this little hill many
a time, wuiet, Cherokee!" for the
horse had shifted bis head sud
denly and snorted. "Qulot, I say!
Now what the devil"
There crept over him then the
realization that he and Cherokee
were - -not - alone.. Someone . was
near. Instinctively he felt who it
was, and yet somehow he dared
not turn around for fear that he
should be wrong.
And-lhoh someone spoke. I i "Did
you come all tho way out hero to
see the sunset, Tony?"
Rita's voice! Hltnl' lie felt a
queer, throttled sensation in his
chest and slowly swung around In
the saddle, his face as white as
the blaze on Cherokee's forehead.
He saw her then, standing be
side her horse, the bridle reins
dangling in her hand. And he
could not speak but sat thcro and
stared at her, the picture of slupe
flcatlon. "I was behind those treoB there
when I Baw you como riding up,"
she said awkwardly and inclined
her head In the direction from
which she had como. "So 1 Just
stayed where I was. Did I sup
prlBe you?" .Her voico then was
light, casual; but the paleness of
her cheeks gave tho lie to ' her
carefree manner and apparently
she could not control the ner
vous trembling of the hand that
held the bridle reins.
Tony Harrison found words at
last but his emotions had slipped
beyond lingual reach. "Why
why, Rita," he stammered, "I
never thought "
"To find me hero," she finished
for him. "And that's why you
camo. Of course, I know that."

WAS1UNOTCN, Jan.' 13. With
the fires of Jacksonlan Democracy
kindled anew, the Democratic
parly waB squared away today for
the task of selecting its presi
dential nominee next - June at
Houston, Texas.
The picture of a pathway to
the White House,. ' illuminated by
the principles of Jackson and Jef
ferson, stands before the party
lundors, portrayed to them last
night by a parade of contenders
for the nomination who voiced
ptenB lor Internal accord and' a
united front for the coming cum
piign. 1 -
; All of the ' prominently men
tioned caudldatos,. except Gover
nor bmlth of Now York, who sent
a i meBsage, appeared before party
lenders. '
' 'All of the factional strife that
has marked recent party history
appeared forgotten at the banquet
table, the one suggestion ot con
troversy coming with a triple
mention ot prohibition. The sub
ject wus introduced by Governor
Hiichio of Maryland, who urged
that prohibition bo suttlod by Eulf
dutermluatiou and homo rulo.
That prompted. John W. Davis,
the 1924 Btaudard buarer and the
banquet toastniaster, to voice his
opinion that the test of a candi
date s fitness should not bo based
upon his views on prohibition.
. The other mention wus by . Dan
Moody, Texas' youthful governor,
who said the Republican party
must he held responsible for fail
ure to enforce the eighteenth
amendment. Ho added bis vtow
that the amendmont could ' no
more bo repealed than could the
ten commandments or tho golden
rule .and that tho Democratic
party should unite for law enforce-
mont; ,
J- The assemblage cheered, the
rcuding of the messagu from Gov
ernor Smith, who said the press
of official business kept him at
home. Tho meuHugo counseled tho
party to adhero to tho principles
of Jackson and to upply them in
Its plntfoim to the problems of
the day.
. Wild appluuso shattered the
sllenco that marked tho - reading
of tho letter and as tho- diners
roso to their foot William G. Mc-
Adoo, Smith's opponent In the
11124 convention deadlock, Blood
UP, smiling.
' McAdoo declared he was an ex
candidate, forbearing to give the
party advice except to urge unity
of purpose and action.
' Similar counsel came from
other speakers, with some of
them Interspersing Jibes at the
Republican party. A lighter sldo
wns offered by Will Rogers, the
comedian, who wine-cracked his
way to continuous ' applause hy
poking fun at both Democratic
and Republican parties and per
sonalities. Claude O. Bowers sounded tho
koynole of the gathering with a
plea for a return of the policies of
the party founders. He attacked
past and present Republican ad
ministrations and asserted that
the Democratic Parly hud for an
Issue "ontinl rights to all and special-privilege
to none," if It stood
with its founders.
The same sentiment was voiced
by Senator Reed of Missouri,
Evans Woollen of Indiana, Sena
tor TToblnson of ArkansHs, Repre
sentative Garrett of Tennossec,
and neurly a score of others.
With a large portrait of Jack
son to look upon, the banqueters
gathered at the Mayflower Hotel,
with Mrs. Woodrow Wilson in the
chair as guest of honor..
