CHAPTER t
When Eva saw Charley Bonn
come out of the bhiloh the man
euvered to meet him wldway across
the street. The old homesteader
appear! worried. He said, 'That
aliowa what Stramberg will do to
grab a piece of Strip graze. Unk
made It look like a peraonal grudge
betwixt him and Rimbaud, but It
was meant to be a ehopdown, pure
and simple.
"Is Jim (till at the aaloon?" Eve
eked.
' Bonn nodded. "I tried to' talk
him into leavlns town with me,
but Rimbaud said he had to help
Llmpy Smith finish off a quart
of bourbon. Some darn foolishness
about how important It was to
drink twentv toasts."
"So Llmpy has taken up with
Jim," murmurea eve. Ana corn
she said something that didn't
make sense to Charley Bonn:
"Sam isn't a drinking man, thank
God.
Bonn was wondering about that
as he drove oui 01 town witn
his wife. When he repeated Eve's
' words to Maria she said, "The poor
girl had a drunkard for a lamer,
and is set on having a sober man
for a husband. Anyone with a lick
of sense would understand her
feellnar the way she does."
"But what's Rimbaud being
drunk got to do with it?" Bonn
asked.
"Ha could've been an old flame
of Eve's for all we know," Maria
suggested with feminine lntui'
tton. "Seems like I remember hear
lng Faith Shumway mention
something about him sparkln' Eve
oaegarae wnen ne was nere De
fore." "I wouldn't put no store in what
Faith Shumway says, one way or
the other," Charley muttered.
"She's got a waggy tongue."
You'd of thought Eve was some
Burro Alley trollop the way Delia
treated her."
"Maybe it's the other way
around," Charley said.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing," Oharey muttered.
-riotnin' at all."
Ponso Peal had replaced ttie
smashed lamp above bis bar and
' now helped serve a crowd of cus
tomers attracted by the fight. "It's
an ill wind that doesn't blow some
good," he confined to Pinueane.
Buck Aubrey came Into the Shi
Mi and Joined Lew Stromberg at
uie oar. "Ernies rignt arm is
broke," he reported. "Doc says tt'tt
take upwards an hour to fix a
fast."
"Serves the wild hellion right for
Dusun- up a poser game just wnen
I was wlnnln'," Joe Gabbert com-
Pjained. "Whatever got into him,
Stromberg shrugged, maintain
ing the attitude of a mildly In
terested observer. "Soma personal
. grudge," he suggested.
Llmpy endeavored to sift to
bacco into the paper, most of It
missing. He gave up and put the
sack back in his pocket, again
swaying, and announced, "But Doc
Odegarde was a erackerjack sur
geon, regardless. Look how he
carved this knee of mint,"
As Rimbaud turned to look at
the sturoD Smith raised for lnsoec
tion, he saw Hugh Jubal and Red
Shaf ter come through the bat
. wings. Remembering that Jubal
was Stromoerg's foreman. Rim
baud thought: That makes five of
tnsm la town. He decided he'd had
enough bourbon.
"Doc ' cut right through the
joint Llmpy bragged, and lifted
the leg so high he lost his bal
ance. ,
Rimbaud attempted to grab him,
but Llmpy staggered sideways, eol
. Udlng with Hugh Jubal, who swore
, Irritably. Smith caught at Jubal 's
vest to right himself.
Dost ues me for a
post!" Jubal protested.
Re gave Smith a shore that sent
him sprawling Into the spittle
stained sawdust, whereupon Red
Shatter cackled, "Behold the face
on the barroom floor!"
Jim Rimbaud endeavored to con
vince himself that this was none
of his affair; that Llmpy Smith
was just a drunken dishwasher
who'd always be shoved around by
someone. It was In the cards. But
even ss that reasoning ran
through his mind, Rimbaud said
sharnb. "Thus no fit way to
trMt a crlDDle."
"And who are you?" Jubal de
manded. I
It occurred to Rimbaud that the I
Roman Four ramrod was like Lew
8trombtrg in the way he looked
at a man. use ne was uie mm
attid.
Icnorlns Jubal's Question. Rim
baud helped Limpy up and heard
Red Shatter say, wny uie gaum
vou roped in Rimrock Pass this
evenln' the one we thought was
Sam Mai ben!
Rimbaud brushed sawdust off
Smith's shirt. The fall had dazed
Limpy, for he asked, "wnst hap
pened?"
"You got man-handled by a
anenkina- ambuslier." Rimbaud
said loud enough for all to hear,
and escorted Limpy to a enair at
the deserted poker table.
There were eleven men at the
bar, all watching this, and now
Lew stromberg said, iiugn, urn s
Tim Dimhaiul"
Jubal glanced around. "The Jim
Rimbaud?"
Stromberg nodded. He motioned
to Buck Aubrey, who followed him
out to stand beside Jubal and
Shatter. They were like that, four
abreast, wnen Rimbaud turned
away from the poker table.
A faintly derisive smile slanted
Rimbaud's whiskered blackened I
cheeks as he observed the Roman
Four line-up. It was an old estab
lished trick, he reflected: a tradi
tional use of excess power to
smother opposition. He had seen It I
in uncoui county and on count
less occasions across the border.
Yet now, as he came on. Lew
Stromberg said, "If my foreman
wayiaia you ne made a mistake. I
and is willing to admit It."
Wholly surprised at this unex
pected admission, Rimbaud peered
at Stromberg and knew something
mat ne naan t even guessed be-1
fore. But the Dumllne knDllcitkml
01 tnat znowieage oaiiieo him. De
spite all Stromberg's arrogance
aoo ail us vanity, tne man was
dominated by a calculating cau
tion that seemed in direct oontrast
to his nature. Not cowardice, sure
ly, or fear of physical harm, but a
caution spawned by his creed for
Rimbaud halted dlrncUv In front
w ruow and said, "I'm listening."

New Empire
In Making
Chicago () Robert S. Mac
farlane, president of the North
ern Pacific Railway, said Fri
day "a new empire" la in the
making In the great Northwest
and the Pacific Northwest."
He told the Executives club
of Chicago that their city "is
the natural gateway" to the
growing Northwest economy
"because of a network of steel
rails."
"Many factors are contribut
ing to the growing economic
importance of the vast area
.which lies between Chicago
and the North Pacific Coast,
but the most spectacular, and
probably the most significant,
are two great basins the Wil
liston and the Columbia in
both of which Chicago hai an
important interest," Macfar
lane said.
"Currently there are 157
producible oil wells in the
American portion of the Wil
liston Basin, and exploration
and drilling continue at a rapid
pace ...
"Fully developed, the Co
lumbia Basin actually will put
under intensive cultivation
twice the acreage which the
1950 census shows as cropped
in the states of Delaware and
Rhode Island. In terms of peo
ple, the growth will be even
more striking."
