12 Capital Journal, Salem, Ore, Tuesday, Oct., 21, 1952 X4 XI ome Range By LYNN WESTLAND lAP Newafeatuml CHAPTER 4 Armin Zachary as a man whom the years had conditioned against a shock. He was like his cousin in some ways, unlike him in others. His cheeks were ruddy, his eyes deep-set under heavy brows. When something disturbed him, he had schooled nls face never to betray it. In the case of Tirb Valse, he had known, with a sort of resigned fat ality, that sooner or later his cous in would turn up to trouble him again. That knowledge had come in the form of a new letter from the War Department, correcting the former announcement that alse was dead. Zachary had read it without any outward show of emotion. For a moment his face had flushed with anger, and he had half risen to send for Marsh and Huff. Then he hsd sunk back again, and had care fully burned the letter saying noth ing. Long before he had burned his bridges behind him. The Gun was his, now, to have and to hold, the first thing of any value that he'd ever managed to get hold of. And it would take a good man, he re flected grimly, to take it from him. A better man than Trib Valse. Not that he underestimated his cousin. It was simply that he had made his plans, over the year. And he had stacked the deck so heavily in his own favor that it could tip but one way. Trib Valse was back. Word had Just been brought to him, and Valse himself .would be along very soon now. That meant a fight, Just as he had always known that it must. He looked up as Valse pulled up before Lundeen's and tied his horse at the chewed hitching rail before it. From his window on the second floor, Zachary was able to study him unobserved for a moment. Even after the word which he had re ceived, the change in Valse was shocking: the snowwhlte hair, the lines of suffering in his face, Yet he noted that Valse still moved swiftly, purposely, as a man his age would normallv do. Zachary was ready when the knock came at his door. He open ed it and waited with polite interest on his face, all eke carefully school ed out. "Yes?" he asked, "You don't need to put on a show, Armin," Valse told him short ly. "I know that you know me well enough." "Shoiild I?" Zachary studied him carefully, "I don't usually forget faces, but I'm afraid you have the advantage of me." "So you've forgotten the name of Valse," he jerred. Znchary stared. Then he shook his head. "You don't mean to claim that you're my cousin, Trib Valse," he protested. Valse helped himself to a chair, Unperturbed. "You knew that I vas on the way here to see you, of course," he said. Zachary admitted it, "Marsh brought me word about you. I'll admit that I was curlus But even after what he said, I was not prepared. You look even less like mv cousin than I'd supposed nm'bndy would that claimed to be h'm." "Do you think that you can get nwny with this, Armin with steal ing my ranch?" Valse asked tight ly. Zachary shrugged. "I don't like that word," he said. "The Gun belongs to mo, by right of inheritance. If my cousin was alive, it would be a different story. He's dead. And your attempt to impersonate him, if you'll pardon my bluntncss, Is a damned poor bit of faking." Anger, wlldness grew in Valse, but he fought it down. Always, ev er sinco they had been boys togeth er, Zachary had had that effect on him. the ability to stir him to un reasoning rage. Zachary saw the flash of anger, and apprehension stirred In him. Not that he was afraid of Valse. But he knew Vnlse's rages, his determin ation. "You come here and make a claim what seems to me to be an out rageous claim. The sensible thing, it seems to me, is to put it up to a sort of Jury of folks who used to know mv cousin, whom you claim to be." 'Let's get on with it, then," he accepted briefly. mere was guaraea nosiuuy De tween them as they went down to the main floor. At one end of the bar. with chairs and tables behind it, Zachary turned to alse with frig- la politeness. "Since you claim to be my cousin, you might suggest a few names of old-timers," he said. Valse took the challenge prompt ly, beckoning to Lundeen himself, who, across the aisle, was just fin ishing a sale of a pair of boots to a cowboy. "Come over here. Lundeen. IT you can spare a little time," he request ed. "You should know who I am Trib Valse," The news, of course, had SDread by now, with an overly long thatch of reddish hair and a friendly grin threw back his hair with a gesture and held out his hand. "I've heard of vou, he admitter. 'And I did know Valse right well. If you are him, you've changed a plenty," "You don't think he is Trib then?" Zachary challenged. Lundeen shook nis head. "Sure don't look it," he confessed. Though of course, the vears can change a man." ljunaeen agreed readily enough to serve on a sort of Jury on the question. Three others were called to loin them, old-timers who nan- penea to oe in town, mempie siy was a rancn owner, a little, wiry, bald-headed man. Jack Elwood had been Lundeen's first clerk and man of all work, and still was. And Mike de Polo was a gambler, among the first to hit the country, and still here. He had a reputation as a square-shooter. All three had been good inends of vaises in the old days.

Albany Weather Records Are Set Albany Seth French, local government weatherman, chalk ed up a new record in his weather reports Monday as the Willamette river dropped to 01.1 feet below the standard low mark, the lowest the river has been here since 1865. The low est mark previous to the reading Monday morning was set in August and September of 1951 when the river was -1.0 feet be low the standard. That mark was tied Saturday and Sunday and broken Monday. Lack of rain was naturally blamed for the new mark, but Albany's 42-day drouth ended at 1 p.m., Monday when rain start ed falling, and by mid-afternoon was still falling. Monday s rain was the first of any kind recorded since Sep tember 8 when .04 of an inch was noted. U. S.
